What it's about: A comedian's viral clip mocks the Lithuanian accent of Rasa, morning host on a local Oslo radio station, and her bosses suggest a break or speech lessons. Instead she invites him on air, hands him an old tongue twister and lets the listeners hear that he himself no longer pronounces the Norwegian kj-sound.

Klippet var tjueåtte sekunder langt. Det viste komikeren Isak Lie foran et mikrofonstativ med lue på skrå og alvorlig blikk, mens han leste en trafikkmelding med en tykk, overdreven østeuropeisk aksent. Han rullet på r-ene, la trykket på feil stavelse og uttalte «kjøkken» som «sjøkken». Under videoen sto det bare: «Når morgenradioen ringer fra Vilnius.» Innen lunsj hadde den blitt sett tre hundre tusen ganger.
