I didn\u2019t really grow up with the Muppets like some people might have.\u00a0 And although I was familiar with Kermit and Miss Piggy, I guess I never paid much attention to the Swedish Chef.\u00a0 Somehow though, invariably, my Swedish skills lead to a conversation about blonde women, IKEA, and the Swedish chef.\u00a0 The trifecta of Swedish culture really.<\/p>\n
The other day I decided it was time to steep myself in the life of the Swedish Chef.\u00a0 What better place to learn about a muppet than on Wikipedia? Sure enough, the Swedish Chef is famous enough to have his own Wikipedia page<\/a>.\u00a0 And it\u2019s glorious. The muppet is treated as an actual person, one who is even rumored to be married.<\/p>\n I\u2019ll leave you to read more about the Swedish Chef on your own time.\u00a0 We have more important things to discuss.\u00a0 What could be more important than learning about the Swedish Chef\u2019s marriage? His language usage of course.<\/p>\n Now, one would think that because he is in fact Swedish, that he would speak Swedish.\u00a0 He does not.\u00a0 \u201cBork, bork, bork!\u201d is not Swedish. In case you were wondering.\u00a0 The Swedish Chef seems to speak his own special language.\u00a0 One so special that Google has decided to allow you to search in it.<\/p>\n I wish I could make this stuff up.\u00a0 I can\u2019t, but luckily someone at Google did.\u00a0 And so, if you\u2019re feeling adventurous, maybe you\u2019re searching for a Swedish meatballs recipe, get some help from the Swedish chef: http:\/\/www.google.com\/webhp?hl=xx-bork<\/a><\/p>\n Enjoy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I didn\u2019t really grow up with the Muppets like some people might have.\u00a0 And although I was familiar with Kermit and Miss Piggy, I guess I never paid much attention to the Swedish Chef.\u00a0 Somehow though, invariably, my Swedish skills lead to a conversation about blonde women, IKEA, and the Swedish chef.\u00a0 The trifecta of…<\/p>\n
