is there any way to distinguish between Danish and Swedish teak?

From my knoweldge,
all the teak from that era would have come from Thailand, so I doubt there would be any way to differentiate.

Swedish Teaks: Go around in...
Swedish Teaks: Go around in clothes with colors like skiwear. They are used to working in the forest or in large industries. They are a little timid. Calm. Keeping distance from their boss. The Swedish Teak takes account of traffic, in which they drive properly. There is a clear hierarchy. There are very large and distinct forces in the subsoil. The Swedish Teaks love to come to Denmark. For them, Denmark is still exotic, with delicious food: Rugbrug and delicious cheese. I have never heard of a Swedish Teak who went to Norway.
Danish Teaks: Wear clothes that are a little dull, gray and black. In regards to temperament, the Danish Teaks are the Italian Teaks of the North. They laugh a lot and loud and behave like big spoiled children. Danish Teaks are accustomed to the comfortable, cozy environment where there is nothing to be fear. They are friends with the boss. They are all equal. Danish Teaks are a bunch of anarchists in traffic, and rarely take other Teaks into account. They enjoy going to Sweden to get away and have a bit of peace from all those noisy neighbors. Danish Teaks go to Norway Danish Teaks are not very good at skiing.

I thought you might be kidding, but always like to err on the side of caution. I'll see if I can't put it back up 😉

Well, I'm actually 100% Danish teak but since Danish teak usually have a good sense of self irony, I found your comment to be absolutely hilarious 🙂
It's funny because it's true.

I am 1/8 Norwegian Teak
but it was so long ago that it has faded into nothingness, except for maybe my looks.
That said, my impression of Danish Teaks who drive was that they are really big on traffic etiquette, specifically that thing where you absolutely are not allowed to be in the left lane unless you are in the act of overtaking another Teak, then you have to get right back in a right lane or a Danish Teak will come right up behind your vehicle and flash his lights until you move your foreign ass over.
Also, don't step into a Danish Teak bike lane or they will ring their little bells at you. And I know Danish Teaks who will not cross a street against as light at 2 a.m. even though every single other person in the country is asleep and not out driving. But maybe this is anarchistic compared to Swedish Teak behavior, I dunno.
Swedish Teaks know how to pave a road so that it lasts, however. I will give them that.

is being a very good sport about the hijacking of his thread, but he had to know his phrasing was just crying out for this treatment, no?
Bob, if you ever have any questions about the rare, but rich, Swiss Teak, I'm your Uncle. I can be the first to confirm that the male Swiss Teak is, indeed, required to sit down to pee after 22:00 hours.
