    The swedish button

    Here in Norway we like to make fun of Swedes as a stupid people. The swedish button originated (at least the first context I knew of) as yanking the power cable from the socket as a way of turning off an applianve such as a Tv or computer, inatead of the intended way

    One can also call other extreme/destructive ways of turning something off as the swedish button, such as hitting a tv with a hammer.
