Im glad you pointed this out because i was about to start to furiously research cause i could swear that id seen rowing at viking museums as well, not just sailing.

What do pedant points win? Absolutely nothing, so join in and have some fun instead.

Ackchyually they win you fleeting viral fame and a posting on European_memes.

.Pedantry is the bane of progress, discourse, and the weapon of arsehole busybodies and jobsworths. Absolutely join in and have fun. Even the courts in many countries have said "fuck off" to pedantry by allowing spirit of the law vs letter of the law argumentation.

Yes, the expectation of clear communication really is the most evil thing that's ever existed.

[-] Codpiece@feddit.uk 1 points 3 hours ago

Arguing over facts that have little situational relevance has nothing to do with clear communication.

Is the score board shown in runes? No. Did the Vikings play soccer? Again….

I'm just referring to what people call 'pedantry', which exists far outside cases like this.

A true hero. What's his opinion about hats with horns?

It would be amusing if everyone around him was wearing them just to annoy him.

Subreddit Rules

Keep It European

Memes should be relevant to Europe, Europeans, or European culture. Off-topic memes will be removed.

No Hate Speech or Bigotry

Racism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia, and other forms of hate speech are strictly prohibited. Satire is welcome, but not at the expense of marginalized groups.

No Spam or Self-Promotion

Don’t flood the sub with your own content or links. Participate genuinely.

English Preferred, but Multilingual Welcome

While English is the main language, memes in other European languages are allowed if the humor is clear or a translation is provided.

Be Kind and Constructive

Disagreements happen, but keep discussions civil. Personal attacks, trolling, or harassment will result in bans.
