Quick scanlation from Finnish comic book Pahkasika, issue 9, published in 1981.

Modern update: Flight AY286 + HSL's metropolitan P train will actually get you to Helsinki in 1h 55m. Ah ha! So the trains fix this shit! However, as a Northern witchy biaatch, I'm still flabbergasted by the fact that Jyväskylä is in the southern Finland and they don't even get a Pendolino link to Helsinki. We do, here in Oulu. Please do get better, scrubs.

* Edit: Fucked up the last line in the scanlation. Jyväskylä to Helsinki, obviously.

** Wait Lemmy let me also replace uploaded fuck-ups? This is the best platform ever

Oulu is like 500km from civilization. You need those high speed rail tracks.

We built our own civilization! With blackjack and hookers! And world class (or well above world class, since average world class tends to suck) cycling infrastructure!

I'm thinking we should fund a group tour for every Canadian mayor to go to Oulu in winter just to experience that.
