If I only had a brain...

And who can argue with that?

Did you notice that one of them had taglined Erika? So cool.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

There seems to be one Swedish-English translation tool on the web, and its server is down. Alas!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Who reads Swedish?

Well. Swedes, I hear.

What is even happening?

Show offs. Like being tall, blond, and gorgeous, isn't enough.

Hee. We're relativt odödlig. I don't know what it means, but I kind of like the sound of it.

Who reads Swedish?

Just squint your eyes a bit and twist your mouth a bit when you read the diacritics. You can read it.

I especially like:

Mer Buffista-guld. (More Buffista gold)

and

Buffistas är verkligen en guldgruva! (Buffistas truly are a treasure-trove)

I think that odödlig means cultured or sophisticated, but my Swedish is pretty limited and I don't have a dictionary here.

Alas, my one exposure to the Swedes didn't involve all that much talking.
