Has this come up? Doing some googling/testing, (see if I can be found here easily by others doing the same thing) I found this link, which seems to be, er, Swedes? maybe? quoting and commenting on our COMMs/Buff Dives?
I tell you I have this theory. It goes where, you're the one who's not my sister. Cuz mom adopted you from a shoe box full of baby howler monkeys, and never told you cuz it could hurt your delicate baby feelings.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I remember someone linking to this a few years ago. I think they may be Swedish Buffistas....

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
And yet nowhere in that thread can I find the phrase "Bork, bork, bork..."

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Well, they had this to say about us, which I choose to take as a compliment:
Verkar vara ett roligt ställe, Buffistas-forumet.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
We have the most incomprehensible grammar. I am amazed that non-native speakers can understand
P-C: Kristin has changed her tag back to the tag she changed to last night before changing back to the tag she had before she changed.
lexine: P-C, you are lucky we love you, cause that sentence? Well, words should not be abused thusly.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
I think they're just saying that the Buffista forums are a funny place. Which is a compliment, I guess.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
We did link to these people, back earlier in this thread (probably last year, around the 3000s). I remember because there was a whole conversation about how, if you squint, Swedish looks a lot like English.
And how Buffy was a guldgruva (treasure-trove).

Swedish is linguistically pretty close to English, and most Swedes I've met have a pretty easy time wraping their heads around idomatic English.

Wow. I'm repetitive. And redundant. And repetitive. And redundant.
