  • They are dialects, mostly. In parts of western norway, -o is used for singular feminine words, for example: “stuo” (instead of “stua” (“the living room”)). Similarly, -i is used in parts of central Norway, for example: “boki” (instead of “boka” (“the book”)). I’m not sure if these are accepted in “correct” written form of nynorsk, but it is commonly used in spoken and written dialects.





  • When the lots are wide or several spots are free, I agree, I might pull in front first. But tight parking lots need that extra precission you get by backing into a lot. I have far more often been stuck for a while behind someone trying to pull in front first into a tight spot when backing in would have been quick and easy.


  • While that’s true regarding insulation, the degradation of materials might be different at different temperatures. It might not be an issue as I have no idea what the materials in an ice cream truck are, but if you want to maintain a hot beverage-temperature, several types of paint, treatments, walls and floors might fail over time.


  • I’m not downvoting you, because this is the type of comment the thread is asking for. But I really need to question this one. To me, it’s obviously geometrically easier to back into tight parking lots. I’m not sure if you’re in the US, but here in Norway, parking lots are generally a lot tighter than american parking lots. When you have only about a meter of total clearance and a narrow road along it, there is no way in hell to pull in front first.





  • I have had a similar scenario. I was in the shower, letting the shower thoughts run. Then i suddenly flinched as I became unsure if I had taken the phone out of my pocket before entering the shower. I slapped my hand instinctively towards my naked leg to feel if my phone was there. Then I instantly realized how stupid I was.
