    I don’t speak Finnish, but I’ve seen a video of him performing in Finnish, and he is totally different. His English persona is fairly mild mannered and somewhat innocent and reserved. His Finnish persona is more energetic and confident. I’m impressed that he was able to make the transition.

  • @timomastosalo

    I think the natural part of it is, he is fully aware he's not perfect in English, and subconsciously more on his toes - so he takes it more mildly and humbly, somewhat bewildered. In Finnish it's just without such possible pitfalls - in English he could easily come over some blind spot he's not familiar with. He did describe in some interview, even in English, that he has to check his material with some genuine, native Anglophones before staging.

Our minimum wage laws specifically exclude wait staff, so if we don’t tip them, their employer would have to pay them minimum wage. I’d rather just be charged the right amount to pay the people doing the service.

In my own country in Scandinavia I never give tips,never ever. I only do it when I'm a guest in another country. In Israel I never give tips,why? because in every restaurant or cafeteria the waitresses tells me "tips is not included" when they handle me the bill!! How rude; its like they force and beg me to pay tips. And tips is supposed to be something you give IF you want to. Not something that the waitresses BEG for!!!
