Hi,
this is to do with that I was talked about on a TV-programme, (called Tweet for Tweet), in Norway.
There they said some bad things about me.
(Jenny Skavlan said my blog smelled of psychosis, etc).
So I got a bit angry, since they just made fun of me, on telly.
And I wrote that book, because Jenny Skavlan became famous for being in a pizza-commercial.
And in Finland I think she's still famous mostly for that.
And in that commercial they hit eachother on their behinds, while they dance.
So that's why I call it 'Jenny Skavlan in Finland'.
If she went to Finland, then all the Finns would have hit her on her behind, since they've seen this commercial, I joke about.
So this is just a comic-book, unfortunately.
And this was one of my replies, to the TV-programme Tweet for Tweet, who had a presentaion of me, (mostly by musician Thomas Seltzer), in a TV-programme.
Why do they use en entertainment-programme about my rights/emergency-blog?
I've overheard I'm followed by the 'mafian', and I don't get my rights.
This made me frustraited, and this TV-show is also very cryptical and subtle.
And very layered.
So it's also difficult to interperate.
And I live as a refugee in the UK, so I couldn't see this show each week.
And in Norway, the comedy-shows are very subtle and strange, so it isn't easy to understand the humour, and if the programme is sincere or not, and how to interperate it.
So I got a bit frusterated, and made a comic-strip about the young pizza-woman who talked me down in the TV-show.
So this isn't really Finish, but Norwegian stuff.
But those pizza's are being sold in Finland as well.
But the TV-show isn't showed there.
So Jenny Skavlan is only known for the pizza-commercial in Finland, I think.
And that's what joke was about.
The comic-book is really mostly about my relatives etc., (who are a bit strange as well), but I thought this was a funny name, to call the comic-book.
But thanks for asking me,
Erik Ribsskog
