Snapshot: The upper class' subtle way of expression
What a load of crap.
Ok, this is probably only funny to Swedes and jokes that need to be explained are often ruined, but I'll try anyway so you won't feel too abandoned.
This is a bill for the Newspaper Östermalms-nytt. Östermalm is a part of Stockholm with a long upper class tradition. The bill reads "3000 TONS OF HORSE SHIT MAY BE DUMPED IN RECREATION AREA". Oh the irony...
I find the second headline amusing as well but for a different reason: "Get in shape with books and bottles". That could become a very popular method.
/O.K.
Listening to while posting: The humming sound of a espresso machine from 1961.

"3000 TONS OF HORSE SHIT MAY BE DUMPED IN RECREATION AREA"
It actually says KAN = COULD... so this might just be a philosophical thought by a journalist. I mean, you could also say:
3000 TONS of HORSE SHIT COULD BE EATEN BY MONSTER WORM
There is nothing definite about the statement, nothing that it will actually happens, right? But I get it, anything to give the upperclass on Ostermalm some reality-based fears sells papers, both here and there. Especially now when they moved the Royal Stables from Ostermalm. More horses for the needy!
