There's a reason to why Swedish people jokes about the Norweigans (they are always the dumber peeps in our jokes) ... (I am Swedish) ...

Aye, it was on the news over here, it was a bird from edinburgh zoo, made an honourary member of the Norweigan Kings Guard. Whatever floats your boat I guess!

I've not even heard about this. :< Knighting penguins is of course a favourite past-time of ours, thus it's not news.
