Up on the housetop Sleipnir paws,Snow lumps under horse-spider's claws.Down through smoke stacks, with lots of poise,Allfather, the Nisse ones; yuletide noise. https://t.co/ejoZimkrGl

Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn’t go.Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn’t go,Up on the housetop, click, click, click;Down through the smoke stack, per sanctus sigr.

First comes the stocking of little Nell;Oh, dear VVoden fill it well!Give her a dolly that laughs and cries;Bring life to a poppet, one that never dies.

Next comes the stocking of little Bill;Oh just see what a glorious fill!Here is a Mjölnir and lots of nagli;A Naglfar and a pig's bladder and a scourge that cracks!

TFW you smash a poor giant's head in after your adopted brother fucks his horse, Svaðilfari, all night. The giant fails to build the wall you were going to give your dad's concubine away for (but only because you asked him to). TL:DR: Your brother hornt.https://t.co/NkC1H3O40N

"The law required that walls be the shoulder-height of a man and five feet thick at the base (Grágás K 181). Maintaining the walls was so important the law code specified that three months out of each year were to be set aside for the maintenance of walls"https://t.co/oZrgnwuyD2 https://t.co/L07ed5Ew0q
