Well, the problem is clearly that it is not.
(In case you are actually confused "duty calls" or "I hear the call of duty" (or "I hear the call of nature") can mean the speaker needs to take a shit.)

Non-American as well, but I believe GI means "General Infantry", but in use GI means "Army Man/Soldier" so it doesn't really matter what the letters stand for.

You would also get the same problem as the op in Norweigan.
Hvor = Where
Hvem = Who
(Hvorfor = Why / Wherefore)
English is the odd one out here, it seems. (Also why I would rather be learning German from Norwegian than English, but oh well.)

Took me a second too, but it's supposed to be a list of descriptors of the woman in the picture. A better way to form it would be "She uses drugs, but she is also a wife, a coworker, and a grandmother." with the last three as bullet points.

Hoping to see either a travel montage with a tarnished and a finger maiden as they show us the different locations in Elden Ring in obvious fan service, while working with the central theme of Souls games (immortality is bad and seeking immortality is evil).

Or Melina's story. Who is she? What is her connection with the Gloam-eyed Queen? How did she know Torrent's former master? How did she realize her purpose, Marika's plan, and why does she believe in it so fervently? Why is she burned and bodyless?

I suspect it will actually be something completely different and that the result won't be worse for it.

Could be Guild Wars 2. There are two scythe the game (I'm not counting staff skins): Necromancer staff, which is a casting implement with mostly utility skills, and Necromancer Reaper "mode", which gives you a ton of DPS and tankiness until you run out of your saved up life force.

Left one is Norwegian. E55 and E47 are not in Norway, but in Sweden and Denmark (Also would be "fartskontroll" in Norwegian). Max is spelt "maks" in Norwegian (Also it would be a compound word "maksfart"). It is possible that the two images on the right are fake, though.

I feel like Sea Shanty 2 from Old School Runescape is a strong contender. Even if you have never played Runescape there is a good chance you know it.

Also 🇧🇻 🇳🇴 🇸🇯 "These are all the flag of Norway" you might say, and that is correct. But one is for Bouvet Island, one is for Norway, and one is for Svalbard and Jan Mayen (in that order, here). Norway's national day was recently and it is fun every year to see so many people celebrating Bouvet Island (it shows up first in alphabetical lists).

It's a character from Attack on Titan. Iirc the character is called Sasha and she gets shouted at for eating a potato during a military drill. Her response is to offer the drill sergeant part of the potato. (Been a while since I watched AoT)

It's for emphasis, most likely. Italics would have been the more common option, but it still gets the point across this way.
