"You voted for the guy because he was anti-immigration. Now he's going to let immigrants take the high-paying jobs but throw the fruit pickers out. His boss told you to go F your own face, then scolded you the next day, saying you should be nicer. What am I missing here?"

It’s the time of year for mentioning one of my favourite ‘untranslatables’.
‘Poronkusema’, in Finnish, once denoted a distance of around 7.5km, which is roughly how long a reindeer can last before needing to urinate. ‘Poronkusema’ means ‘reindeer pee’.

But for picking the simping Apartheid Clyde and sexual assaulting convicted felon, we could have nice things.
