There was an exchange student in my law school from Copenhagen. When I asked he said they call Danish Vienna Bread. Having grown up with Wienerbrot being a kind of teacake made from puff pastry, it made sense.
No ping pong balls left? Holding something which looks like a weapon like that, I’m sure he’d accept donations. That is, of course, assuming that he isn’t going to be the next one to show some initiative.
Remember, Kay wasn’t actually invited to the competition…she was looking for something else, and took one of the ping-pong balls anyway. This guy is the sixth invitee, probably…unless he or one of the other groups is crashing the event like Kay…
And the motorcycle is his Tardis/Delorean? Hmm…time travel in the Narbonverse burns an entire reality to power it. That means it’s got a big-bang generator in there.
I am in the middle of re-reading “Snow Crash” right now! Just passed the bit where Hiro reflects that he doesn’t have to try to be the biggest bad-ass mother****er, since Raven offically has that title. (Instead, Hiro is just your regular biker geek with two katanas.)
On the other hand, when Tigerlily meets with this guy, our protagonists might have a chance to sneak by during the battle between cool vs. funky. Hopefully the background soundtrack will cover any noises they make.
The Dane –> Danish –> Blueberry waffles… You know, it might just work.
Quick internet factiods for the day: Denmark didn’t invent the ‘danish’ or the ‘great dane’… though they did invent curlers and Limbo. 😀
And Lego.

Oh please, oh please, oh please, let Unity wind up with the lightsaber! She’s always wanted one…
Vibro-blade at best – since its extended behind him as he drove up.
I’m feeling an almost Highlander knock-off here….. not that that is a bad thing.
The Dane? Great!
As long as he isn’t named Marmaduke, he is great.
No ping pong balls left? All that way for nothing. No wonder he looks surly.
Looks like Larry Ellison on a good day. Did he contribute?

Five bucks on him holding a skull and pondering mortality at some point in the storyline.
Not if his name is Yorick, then it’ll be someone else holding *his* skull.
Oh look, it’s the Master with a lightsaber!

Cosmic!
Well, at least he doesn’t have “POOR IMPULSE CONTROL” tattooed on his forehead.
Poor Impulse Control. I knew him, Horatio…
No nuclear-bomb sidecar either.
It could be on the other side.

This! Hiro Protagonist was the first thing I thought of when I saw this! Nice to know I’m not alone 🙂
Does that mean someone will have to listen to Reason?
Note to all: Do not give Unity a Reason.
OH PLEASE GOD LET UNITY SEE REASON.
I would love for Unity to have Reason, it’d be boss to watch from a safe distance. Oh wait, there would be no distance safe enough.
No, let Unity have Y.T. to play with! Much safer!
I admit that I am very bad at recognizing faces, and even worse when they are drawn faces, but that right there is a Madblood.
This was precisely my thought.
This might be a Madblood if somehow, someway, Lupin “Wolf” Madblood figured out how to become a badass.
Oh, that this too solid flesh would melt (with a lightsabre).
Okay, I guess it’s fine to have a man-crush on The Dane.
Well, he does look a little melancholy…
He still as a little ways to go. You’re “Groovy” not “Cool”
Not quite The Fonze either, so I agree.
It’s meee! And so much cooler than IRL. I’ve even lost the glasses.
That guy stole both my name AND my goatee!
Well, this should get interesting.

There’s the Chris I know.
Not how one generally pictures a Dane, although I’m sure dark hair makes some appearance in the scandinavian genepool.
I suppose he could be a naturalized citizen, or the child of an immigrant.
