Snow Monkeys?

Hey wenchie... since you are obviously an expert on the subject of Norwegians... what are the racial slurs for Norwegians? The only ones I know of are "squarehead" and "snow monkey." I'm writing a story and could use one or two more. If there are any.Maybe that's a slur in itself: they're just so darn nice and okeydoke nobody needs to insult 'em!
(And having once observed your head in public, I can attest to the complete lack of right angles or parallel lines, although I can't vouch for what's inside. But your thinking seems too curvaceous to support much squareness.)
First of all, we are not "darn nice and okeydoke!" Underneath these stoic exteriors, we are white-hot burning cauldrons, boiling over with... hot... stuff and... with the passion and... oh screw it. I'm not fooling anyone.
Actually, this is the first I've heard of "squareheads" and "snow monkeys." And I gotta tell ya, I'm not seeing the connection. Nor do I know of any Nordic-type slurs. I mean, we're all just so damn gorgeous, it's hard to come up with anything! So people half-heartedly mock our alabaster skin, and then go home to cry quietly in the dark over the unfairness of it all.
Don't hate me because I'm beautiful!
However, if I were going to mock us, I'd say something like "horn-hats" or "herring-breath."
Yup. That's it. I'm out.

I feel so inpirational. I triggered a blogging! And they say August is a slow news month.
I just want to make it clear: I never did nothing for no apparent reason.
Whatsoever.

I didn't even know there WERE racial slurs for Norwegians! You're so educational, Wenchie!
