Sweden Says ‘Nej’ to Stephen Colbert (Nej Means No)

Two weeks ago, Stephen Colbert embarked on a mission to run the Swedish national twitter account, @Sweden. And after much debate, Sweden made their final decision:

“Although we appreciate that having Colbert as a Curator of Sweden would be meaningful in terms of global attention to this initiative, VisitSweden and the Swedish Institute have decided to – after thorough consideration - decline his generous offer.”

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. What the shit? Sorry, he can’t live up these recent gems:

Sweden invited Colbert to visit their country and all of its meatball/ABBA CD factories. He should go and then sit on the Swedish throne, which is made by IKEA (obvs), and declare himself the new king of Sweden. And as the king he will run not just the @Sweden account but every single Swedish Twitter account. Sweden, you’re on notice.
