They say Cupid strikes where you least expect it. For example, on the dirty sidewalks in front of King of Kebab, where I meet today\u2019s lovebirds, Alexandra and Mohamed, who look giddy after their stroll down N\u00f8rrebrogade. <\/p>\n
We wind up at Props in Bl\u00e5g\u00e5rdsgade, where we order a glass of gl\u00f8gg and share a bench with a crowd of fellow lovers of outdoor seating in adverse weather conditions. <\/p>\n

\nAlexandra: The Middle Ages would be cool. But then there were no dentists\u2026 No, I\u2019d go to the 90s, because of all the lycra.
\nMohamad: I\u2019m happy where I am, in a happy age where I won\u2019t die of influenza. <\/p>\n
\nAlexandra: Presents! The whole idea that you\u2019re meant to give presents and having to figure out what to buy your great-grandmother and whatnot.
\nMohamad: The materialism. You know, we\u2019ve totally moved the focus from being with loved ones to… buying or eating stuff. <\/p>\n
\nMohamad: Bamses og Billedbog. It\u2019s a Danish children\u2019s program, they had some really good songs! They released albums and everything.
\nAlexandra: Well – I still listen to Disney\u2019s songs. I\u2019m not even embarrassed: they\u2019re excellent movies, with excellent music.
\nMohamad: I watched them a lot, too – but some of them are horrible! Like Dumbo, and Bambi… They\u2019ll break your heart. They\u2019re horror stories. <\/p>\n
\nAlexandra: I\u2019ll ask all my friends out to dinner. To a great restaurant. The rest goes to charity.
\nMohamad: I would put them in stocks. What, that\u2019s a no-go? Then I\u2019d do charity. <\/p>\n
\nAlexandra: It\u2019s a nice area and it\u2019s very pretty, but it\u2019s maybe a little bit expensive? The gl\u00f8gg was DKK 50
\nMohamad: That\u2019s crazy! But I had a coffee and that was pretty cheap.
\nAlexandra: But I want to add that there\u2019s also a lot of alcohol in the gl\u00f8gg. Not too bad. <\/p>\n
