His
NAME was probably one of the main reasons why Eksos felt that he never quite
fitted into society. Another thing might have been that he was unable to
participate in the joyful activity of rattling the fetta, a small item which
could hardly be seen, except from when totaaly dark (almost as dark as our
"totally dark"). The fetta had to be handled with the greatest awareness,
and all precautions had to be taken. For instance, the fetta could NOT be
exposed to sunlight, and it had to be kept away from food consisting of (or
containing) våtsokk. Some claimed, that fetta was really an ant, but I find
this claim hard to defend. Anyway, let’s not waste our time talking about
what Eksos could NOT rattle, but rather the things he could take part in
rattling:
1) The tuhud (a small dog dead before its birth).
2) The zløhh (the same as our "termin").
3) The dastfarr (an insanely slow-moving speed-car).
4) The ratossagatt (reminiscent of the item pointed to when using the
Swedish word "Skrullbabben").
5) The Lessejaik (no explanation needed, I hope).
5) The drit (Påppi’s father).
6) The Kupandrom (plastic tent used when removing babies from the anus of a
dog).
7) The safatrut (the same as a dastfarr, only a bit slower).
8) The pute (a pillow).
9) The atapul (the middle section of a catapult).
10) The død (a narrow-minded species of treppen-monkeys).
Eksos took a look at the list, only to conclude that he wasn’t in such a
deep shit, anyway. He put on his gloves, and went off to rattle the
Lessejaik. While cruising down the road in his green safatrut*, he couldn’t
help smiling....."Those idiots", he thought. "Those idiots"! Now, he felt
eased and happy to be on his way. He started whistling to the old classic
"Never let the grøllot get out of your site", not offering a thought to the
fact that he would have reached his destination at a much earlier point if
he had only walked instead of riding his safatrut. "Those idiots", he said
to himself once more...
*Eksos
suffered from zattpo, an eye-disease which, in practice, made him
colour-blind. (The real colour of the safatrut was red)
