Unveiling Sweden: Comical Rants and Unconventional Truths About Nordic Life

Lagom Lunacy is a comic blog that pokes fun at the polished, peaceful veneer of Swedish life—while highlighting a few inconvenient truths, especially the nation’s charming ignorance toward other cultures. Rooted in satire and sprinkled with affection, this blog explores the strange blend of global progressiveness and cultural tunnel vision that makes Sweden both fascinating and frustrating. From awkward international encounters to gloriously passive-aggressive social norms, we call it like we see it—with humor, honesty, and just the right amount of irreverence. This isn’t about bashing Sweden. It’s about questioning the myth of perfection, one comic, rant, or cultural roast at a time. Because sometimes, the most "lagom" thing you can do is tell the truth—loudly, sarcastically, and in a comic strip.
