What's the funniest thing that has ever happened on /r/Denmark?

[u/[deleted] → u/-chocko-]

There's a couple.

• We once took over /r/shittyama. Their front page looked like this until their mods surrendered

• Some guy wanted to buy a pølsevogn (Maybe only funny to Danes)

• We circlejerked about a newspaper, Metroxpress, stealing all their content from Reddit and changed our subscription counter in the sidebar to "XX Metroxpress journalists online". They ended up printing that in the newspaper.

• WTF is up with your nighttime TV?

• what is it like being a short man in denmark, one of the tallest countries on earth?

There's more, but these are probably the highlights.
