Soooo…a typical New Year’s resolution then.
I’m going to try to drink more water
Is there a c/hydrohomies?
A few, the most active is over at ml.
Stay hydrated!

Claim I’m going to get a GF after being khhv my whole life
Rest of the group laughs uproariously, saying I’ve truly claimed the impossible
khhvh?
Kissless, hugless, handholdless, Virgin
King hella hyper virgin
I’m going to mangione every single billionaire.
Swoons
Everyone cheers
🎵there goes my hero🎶
I’m going to evenly microwave a Hot Pocket.
You should settle for something more realistic like punching god in the taint
I’m finally going to nail Molly Ringwald.
hilarious, but Google search for the term only shows this Tumblr post, and there’s no equivalent term in Swedish that I know of. But we should make it a tradition anyways.
Most truthful tumblr post
I believe this refers to Heitstrenging.
The Wikipedia page doesn’t seem to mention the craziness of the oaths to the point of gods, but seems to be more about boastful things people would actually try to do. From the above link:
Heitstrengingar took place at Yule and other sacrificial feasts, weddings, arvals, and banquets and often acted as a form of bragging and promising the performance of an often great feat.
Which seems to have been extrapolated on a bit for the post.
this year i’m going to invent the term in swedish
This is just news years resolutions except you don’t intend to keep them 😂
In 2025 I am going to steal slood from the gods for mankind. This will fix everything.
I also liked the idea of New Year’s bingo, things you’d enjoy doing the next year and then seeing if you get bingo/s.
But nah. In 2025 I’m going to start a company that will cheaply generate near-unlimited clean energy from greenhouse gases, pollutants, and (only discarded) plastics. I will install it for free and provide the energy at something like 10% of oil/coal equivalent. By threatening to turn it off, I’ll extort those in power to stop wars (yup, within the year) and obey the experts on how to improve the wellbeing of the bottom 10-50% in individual countries and globally.
I will win PM of Canada through election or coup, then annex one by one each useful America state!
I suggest annexing the entirety of the US as a single province for the shits & giggles. I don’t think they’d ever recover from that exceptionally bruised ego. LOL
But my state is the besttttt you can’t lump me in with the other 'Mericans nooooo
I would like to volunteer the Pacific states first as we have excellent beer and wine
I’m going to finish all the games in my steam library
You have to finish within the year.
I just logged into my humble bundle account & looked at all the codes I haven’t redeemed yet…
What was that about altering the laws of physics, time and the universe?
Realizes I’d need at least 4 years, if I finished a game a day… I need to stop buying games.
Sir that’s over 1k what the fuck.
Our 4 buddy family group has less games combined sir.
Sir you need to stop.
You’re not wrong
Yeehaw! In 2025 I’m going to defeat my personal demons with a fucking flourish and get yolked as hell doing it.
A bunch of extrovert idiots. That’s what that party is for.
I’d much rather have a glass of bubbly at home with friends and then everyone goes their own way and I enjoy a book or something.

You realize we’re talking about a viking tradition here
As if tradition was ever a good excuse for poor behaviour.
Do you think insulting people for how they choose to entertain themselves is not poor behavior? Are you 74?
People should be insulted if they’re clearly stupid enough to think tearing shirts and yelling in the name of tradition is a good time.

Every time a shirt is torn off voluntarily is a good time.
And mongoloid is an old racist term.
I’m getting out of my comfort zone
Im going to break a chunk off Jupiter and bring it into Earth’s orbit so we have a second moon!
