I doubt any football matches in Norway have been postponed due to volcanic eruptions before now, and I still find it a little bit funny to say.
But it's weird to see how people are acting now that they're basically forced to find other transportation or solutions. It's not like there's a strike and people can go "Fuck the strike and the airline companies, I want to fly, waaahwaaahwaaah!", but there are newspapers that are organizing things where people who need a lift to go somewhere or people who are going somewhere and can offer a lift can put in an ad. Our prime minister just tweeted his way through Europe after having flown from New York to Madrid to Basel and then found a car, and answered tons of questions from followers, which he has never done to this degree before. While the whole thing obviously a huge hassle for a lot of people, I'm surprised at how reasonable and/or positive most of them seem. Now, is the media coverage ridiculous? Yes. But that happens basically every time something out of the ordinary that affects a lot of people occurs.
