Colbert Is on a Mission To Control Part of Sweden

Well, a very small part of Sweden – its Twitter account. If you aren’t familiar, Sweden has started handing off @Sweden to a new citizen every week. One recent tweet went a little like this:

“Have you seen little Mermaid 3? Ariels mom is run over by a ship in that movie. Thats hilarious, cause the ocean is so big. #oddsâ€

That is hilarious, Sweden; who knew they made three Little Mermaid movies? Last night, Stephen Colbert asked his devoted fans to help him be the first non-citizen to run Sweden @Sweden. Stephen is asking you to nominate him by sending an e-mail to [email protected] or tweeting #artificialSwedener. As we speak, Colbert is working on a metric ton of Ikea jokes and pondering the Little Mermaid trilogy. (How did she stay “little†for three movies?)
