The Punto was really tired. "I have made a full crank rotation now, ok? Leave me alone!"
 
"Wait this isn't sunny Italy and I'm not being rubbed up against by hot Italian women? Why is that man wearing a helmet with horns? What is this cold? Fuck this."

//Yes I assume everyone in Scandinavia wears horned helmets and bears axes at all times.
