Close to 100% viking here, you're welcome! I might enslave you though, but without prejudice.

I feel like you don't know what a viking is.

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

How can I not? I am one!

BTW viking society seemingly didnt only kill and plunder ;-)

Vikings were a very particular group of Scandinavians who, during parts of the year, went on their longboats and raided villages and stole stuff to bring home. For most of the year, they were farmers and fishermen. Having Scandinavian ancestry does not make you a viking, they literally don't exist anymore.
I'm 100% Nordic by the way

Techno Viking is a time traveller so he doesn't count. Fun fact, Vikings used to have a rave after a successful raid

Nice try viking. By viking law you can only keep what you kill and a dead slave is worthless, therefore taking a corpse as a slave has no standing. You will just have to settle for the plunder and be on your way.

You forgot the most important Viking law: Ron Swanson saying "Not to worry, I have a permission" and handing a paper that says "I can do what I want" signed by Ron himself

I, for one, welcome our new, tolerant, Viking overlords.
