Today is a very special holiday in Denmark! It’s Morten’s Eve! Today we celebrate by taking vengeance on birds on behalf of some butthurt monk! ^_^

Let me tell you of this holiday: A long time ago a monk named Morten was a very humble and monkly monk, and since he was that good at all that monk stuff, it was decided he should be a bishop. But being humble and not to mention lousy at playing hide and seek, he ran off to hide in the stable, with the geese.

The geese, being geese (and geese are jerks) made a lot of noise when he hid and, Morten was found and made a bishop. Unfortunately Morten was also apparently an illtempered and vengeful kind of monk… er bishop, and he proclaimed that from then on one should take vengeance upon the geese by eating them and their relatives! Fun times!

Though mostly nowadays we take vengeance on ducks, because few families can eat an entire goose.

You should know, that while this is story is not historically accurate (the real story, he was getting executed) and I’m not much of an accurate storyteller this is the actual story we use as an excuse, and Morten was a real monk who swore vengeance on the geese for real!

In the light of this lovely spirit of vengeance and eating the inconsiderate, I’m feeling all mushy! Now, WHO WANTS FREE ARTZ?!

Comment here and tell me, then!
