You’ve read too much about Salander (and Blomkvist) IF …

1. You feel like snooping in other people’s computers all the time … just for the hell of it!
2. Punk music isn’t so bad after all
3. You never smoked before the Millennium, but do now; Marlboro light, of course
4. You just got a bike licence and hair dye
5. You demand Swedish as language subject at school (if you are student outside Sweden)
6. You feel like boxing (someone)
7. You use nicknames on the Internet like “Salander”, “WASP”, “Pippi”, “Sally”, “Micke” and sometimes ”Paolo”
8. Tattoos? Piercings? Yes, please!
9. Billy Pan pizza is in the freezer – always
10. Doing my colleague? Hmm … why not?!
11. Big Blonde Men are evil. Period.
12. You always have electro-gun, tattoo equipment and gasoline and matches handy – just to get even
13. Apple is the shit
14. Big government is hiding something. And you just know it!
15. Wasps are the coolest bugs
16. Your name is Mikael (or Michael), you insist on being called Micke (but NOT Kalle!!)

17. You probably opened a Bible and looked after those numbers from first book/movie (be honest now!)
18. You never deal with lawyers who wear tiny moustaches
19. You have several different (sexual) relationships going on at any given time – and are not afraid to add one more, just for the hell of it!
20. You always change between using two cellphones just in case someone is watching you.
21. You entertain fantasies about getting shot and surviving. How hard can it be?
22. You don’t mind stealing millions of dollars from foreign accounts via hacking, as long as you steal from the bad guys
23. If you are short and small, you think it’s cool now.Really, what was the problem anyway?!

haha.. i totally recognize myself in especially no. 23. Always had complexes about being short (1.50m – like lisbeth) but after reading the books – im almost proud of it;)

Leaving the last comment also made me think about how i just loved and had so much fun reading the parts in the second book describing how lisbeth is having a little trouble controlling the HD she steals from the Svavelsjö bikers + the conversation between Mikael and Paolo in the gym.
First of all, the reason I have never taken a motorcycle license is exactly because i’m afraid that i wont be able to control the bike, because i’m too light and too short to reach the ground:) I totally pictured myself with the helmet down in front og my eyes almost crashing in a bush
Second, I’ve done martial arts most of my life, and i have always been the little girl struggling/fighting with the big guys too, having to compensate for my size with speed and a lot of heart – some might call it agression
I think many people can relate to Lisbeth in some way. It’s just interesting and sometimes funny in which it shows:)

was standing in the supermarket the other day seriously considering to buy the audio books – just to be able to also pursue some millenium while driving in my car.. Am i going a bit overkill here?? Well, guess i’m just a veeeery enthusiastic millenium-fan..

Dont ever think like that, weight is NOT about how to control a motorbike
I am 157 cm and my weight is 49 kg. I reach with one foot on my motorbike and several choppers are nice and low. if you want, go for it
dig the Lisbeth out of you!
Alot of crossdrivers (same bike as Lisbeth) doesnt even reach with both feet on the bike.
Being short and small, gives you nice advantages, you cal always dive between people’s legs and snap away quickly like a Wasp!
