So typically Swedish!

To many Swedes to call someone "not Swedish" (o-svensk) is considered a compliment. Unless they're immigrants. Then they should learn to do as the Smiths (Svenssons) do.

Oh, btw, would you like to make a page about Falkenbergs Gymnasieskola in English to inform our exchanges students about the school, about school traditions like 'studenten', Nobel and useful things to know if you come to Sweden.
