It’s from my mum btw lol. Sometimes I’m like wth are you on about. And I Google, look at lexicons etc
Irritated streethounds. I have their band t-shirt. In the middle there is “Roki”-dog. The old goat, who is probably going to die soon. Mäkinen just passed by, the cottage owner(cat). It was important to him to listen to the sea weather broadcast every day. From the transistor-radio.
That’s what it says, but i’m not sure about the meaning even in finnish lol. Probably some inside-jokes I don’t understand.
Ärtyneet Piharakit (a band). I have a band tee of theirs. That’s Roki-koira (Roki dog) in the middle. An old goat, probably dead soon… Just lost Mäkinen, cottage owner(cat) (i don’t know what that part means), it was very important for them to listen to the sea weather every day. From a transistor radio (A weather forecast on the radio for seafarers. Transistor radio is spelled the way some people would say it in casual spoken slang)
ETA: Ärtyneet piharakit loosely translates to Irritated yard-mutts
Literal translation: “Irritated yard dogs. I have their band shirt. In the middle is Roki-dog, old goat, will maybe die soon… Resently went Mäkinen, cabin owner(cat), for who it was important to listen sea weather every day. From transistor radio”
That last “word” propably meant to be “Transistoriradiosta” in finnish, which is pretty close. Also that Makinen that “went” most probably means died
For the meaning behind this, no fucking clue
Edit: transistor radio is a thing
Edit2: Ärtyneet piharakit is punk band and their t-shirt has goat in the middle. Also Rokikoira is the founder of that band
