A Half-Hour Before Sex

Thanksgiving at the Norse Hall.  I am Norwegian.  No one else in attendance was. They were all Finnish or Swedish, and mostly both. 

I was asked what time it was, and I looked up at the clock and noticed the time, marked in Norwegian.

It was half an hour before Seks.  And that's what I said. 

It upset a couple of people.

I was only trying to be accurate.  Really.
