The Impudent Edda states that when Thor went to get his driver’s license renewed, he encountered a draugr, which is basically a Norse zombie. It was a very frustrating day for the thunder god. https://t.co/qZj99tWBvN

Grayson Del Faro is a kindred spirit and his Icelandic Saga Recaps at are a lot of fun. This bit about Helgi Hundingsbana for example: ”Sigrún the valkyrie asks why Helgi’s so nasty and he says that every tear she’s cried has fallen onto him” https://t.co/hQzm70P8iJ
