Sorry Norway, It's Not a Game Until Someone Puts an Eye Out

In my meanderings from design blog to design blog I happened upon a Norwegian blog called Hei-Astrid. Without reading much of the text, I came across this:


It came with the cryptically awesome descriptor of "We played more games of kubb...". While I could very well wikipedia "Kubb" and have most of my questions answered, I prefer to leave this in its bizarre natural state: 5 Norwegian men, 1 dog, and 14 blocks of wood.

I hate that I did this, but -- it's me -- I looked up "kubb." Bboorriinngg. It's basically "knock crap over with a thrown stick."

While I suppose that actually sounds like fun, your picture -- which looks like a bunch of scary biker witches and their pooch familiar summoning a wooden one-armed man -- really had me hoping kubb would offer me a bit more.

I learned a long time ago that when it comes to hilarious and confusing internet photos, ignorance is bliss.
