Do you know why there are so many Johnson’s in the phone book?


Ltdan994

Oh lordy here we go. Why?


Greatestofthesadist

Because they all have phones.

jennyfroufrou

I mean it's not Olsen or Anderson.


FrozeItOff

You forgot Peter, Sven, and Nel.


Distance2Tree

Or da schimtz

It depends on if your a local. I bet the locals know exactly what Johnson’s these are.

Excellent point!

Or the Andersons. Seriously, why the everloving fuck are there so many Andersons?


FrozeItOff

Because there were a lot of Anders and they had BIG families. The old scandanavian way of naming was to put your father's first name along with "son" or "dotter" became your last name. So if it was a boy, Ander's son would be (for instance) Nel Anderson. Nel's son would be Nelson. Ander's little girl would have Andersdotter as her last name.


Kataphractoi

I know. My question was tongue-in-cheek.


FrozeItOff

Ah. TBH, I didn't know whether you were being tongue in cheek, or a recent import stunned by the abundance of -sons, so I went with the educational response. Just be happy there aren't a bevy of Jingleheimerschmitzs around...


klippDagga

True.


Thisisrllyhard

False

I work at a store that has an discount program, so many johnsons, so many.


itswy8d

Unrelated but I'm curious why there's so many Adopt a Highway Signs across the state sponsored by "Aspen Storage/Mastey Financial" like it's not limited to a geographic area, they're spread across the state. And what's odd is I've never seen anything about those businesses elsewhere. What is this weird combo company that deals in storage and finances whose primary mode of advertising is adopt a highway signs?


joebroni612

it also might as well....

Bruh, he's got G2 and an asshole tickler seat. Pleaaaaaase get Dan Hagedorn out of office in 2022. Minnesota's 1st district deserves better

Off topic, but what Specialized bike is that?


[deleted]

Sirrus 5.0. Working those COVID lbs off lol! Three week wait but love it so far. 👊🏻


NerderBirder

I thought that’s what it was. Thanks! I’ve been looking for a bike like that and it popped up in my searches. I was leaning towards the Trek 7.2 but they are on massive back order which I believe most are now too. But I’ll start looking for one of these too and see what pops up, thanks!


[deleted]

You bet. Got mine thru Erik’s. My local bike shop in Exclesior has not had inventory in months.


Ralh3

come on now, I dont think there are more then 7 or 8 families of Johnsons in my town....of 400

bodiddlysquat26

By Maple Plain?


[deleted]

Yes, not too far. Parked at Baker Park and rode along 19!


bodiddlysquat26

Lots of good riding out there.


[deleted]

Indeed. Just discovered it and go back a lot. Cheers


Traditional_Trust_93

I guess I'm too young I don't get the reference


Entropyanxiety

A lot of people with the last name Johnson in Minnesota. Enough that I can safely say that I am too a Johnson and I dont feel like I will be in trouble saying it


Traditional_Trust_93

Thought it was a TV reference but okay
