“The resolution at the town council
meeting had to state for the record that
we had no reason to doubt the existence
of The Worm. Officially, we don’t not
believe.”
The municipality of Fljótsdalshérað is now
investigating the truth behind the Lagarfljót
Worm after video “proof” was submitted.
“'Fat Americans,' my mother sighed
when I shared my discovery. Many
Americans I spoke to voiced this
suspicion: MS must simply be pandering
to our notorious weakness for adding
sugar to literally everything.”
MS Skyr has made its way to the United States,
a huge milestone on its quest towards world
domination. Rumours are circulating of a snag
in the plan; a con-skyracy that what is sold in
the US is not the same skyr as in Iceland.
“Then the car lands on its ass and flips
over onto its back, sliding to a stop in
the soil, driver nestled safely in the roll
cage. Whiffs of gasoline float all around
us on the breeze. There will be no victo-
ry lap for Kubbur, but the crowd cheers
anyway. This mayhem, after all, is part
of the point of torfæra.”
Torfæra combines the thrills of high speed
with the fury of off-road racing to create
action-packed rallies that attract thousands
to see the souped-up jeeps tear at the terrain,
go airborne, and take victory laps around the
overturned losers.
