You appear to be Norwegian.

I have to ask my standard question: have you met Magnus Carlsen??

What's he like when speaking Norwegian? [I.e. is he different than his English-speaking persona?]

Ha! The closest I've been to meeting Magnus Carlsen is that one time we both happened to be standing next to each other at the urinals. He adheres to normal urinal etiquette, if that's anything to go by.

Oh, a second-degree sighting, and in that most manly of places.

You've made my day. :-)
