Another Norwegian-American Joke.

Olie sits in his La-Z-Boy, reading the latest Sons of Norway newsletter. In the kitchen, Lena busies herself puréing potatos for a fresh batch of lefse she plans to enter into the Northwoods Lefse Competition at the Itasca County Fair.
“Ufda! Olie, when are you gonna take out da trash?” says Lena, peeking her head out from the kitchen.
“I already did,” says Olie, without glancing up. “Sven Blomquist's days of Sweding it up are over...I shot him right between his beady Swede eyes."
“Ufda!” Lena says, shaking her head.
Then Olie looks Lena square in the eye, and loudly cocks his Norwegian deer rifle.
“You a Swede lover?” he asks.
“No,” Lena stammers.
“Then shut your lutefiske hole.”
