cultural quirk I’ve noticed while watching Danish content:
when characters celebrate a birthday, they decorate the room with Danish flags 🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰
skat it’s your birthday, not the country’s!
even Americans don’t do that!!!
screencaps above come from Ride Upon the Storm (Herrens veje)
I’ve also rigorously collected evidence from The Killing (Forbrydelsen):
The Bridge (Bron/Broen):
ironically they are more discrete in Borgen (behind the wine glass on the left):
I expected the former prime minister of the damn country to go all out on the flags but nej
