Nørdenissen / Nerdy Nisse

English below.

Nørdenissen er den klogeste af alle nisserne. Han arbejder med databehandling på højt niveau, og i tasken har han udstyr til tekstbehandling, talbehandling, regneark og filhåndtering – og en tidlig udgave af “Paint”. Processoren har han under nissehuen…

Han ved alting, for han har den største bogsamling, nogen nisse nogensinde har set, og han prøver ihærdigt hver dag at bibringe de andre nisser lidt viden. Til hvert aftensmåltid har han udvalgt interessante fakta, men oftest må han erkende, at der er større interesse for debatten om grøden nu er sød nok, blød nok, varm nok, eller om der er smør og kanel nok. Og så henfalder han i spekulationer, om fakta mon er nytteløse? Men hver dag prøver han ufortrødent igen… og ellers kaster han sig over sin bas! Han har varet til så mange metal-koncerter, at næsten alt håret er rystet af, men det kan man kun se, nảr han tager nissehuen af, og det gør nisser næsten aldrig. Engang tog han Nissemor med til metal-koncert, og det er den bedste koncert, hun nogensinde har været til.

Han har endda lige fået ny nissehue, for han har fået den sorte hue i fakta og fortællinger, for alle de små nørdenisser siger, at han er den bedste lærer i hele verden.

Nerd Nisse is the smartest of all the nisser. He works with high-level data processing, and in his bag, he carries tools for word processing, number crunching, spreadsheets, and file managemen – plus an early version of “Paint.” He keeps the processor tucked away under his nisse hat…

He knows everything, and he has the largest collection of books any Nisse has ever seen, and every single day he tries his best to pass on knowledge to the other nisser. For every evening meal, he has selected interesting facts to share, but mostly, he has to accept that the nisser are far more interested in whether the porridge is sweet enough, soft enough, or warm enough – or whether there is enough butter and cinnamon. So he wonders if facts are useless? Bit then he tries again the very next day… or he plays his bass! He has attended so many metal concerts that almost all his hair has been shaken off. Fortunately, this is only visible when he takes off his nisse hat,  which nisser almost never do.

Once, he took Nisse Mom to a metal concert, and she says it’s the best concert she ever attended.

He even has a new nisse hat, because he has won The Black Hat in facts and fiction, because all the little nisser say that he is the best teacher in the whole wide world.
