given how many idiots are in that photo AND how many Republicans are in the line of succession (99% + 1 RFK Jr), we might as well beg for a Red Wedding a la GoT style.

wait you dont actually need to know French or Danish? How’s the local perception of English speaking foreigners, i.e. is it offensive to respond in English if the waiters/locals ask in French?
Tbh the language barrier is 1 of the reasons holding me back. Havent tried for positions in France and Denmark yet, but for the ones I looked in Germany and Spain, you need to know German or Spanish. Even the job ads are in German/Spanish…

just remember which side is the opening, or you’ll accidentally tear the wrong side
- Comment on Why do some drivers turn off the signal sound so quickly? 3 months ago:
Thanks everyone for replying. Looks like I wasnt clear on the OP: these drivers literally have their left hand (for left handed traffic) the entire duration of the turn - it almost seems like if they let the signal to “tick” for more than 1 second then a bomb would explode or something. And they always commit to the turn, the signal is just a façade. So the correct sequence is like this:
- Signal on AND commit to turn at the same time. No delay. Thats why I mentioned these guys dont even look.
- Car not fully into the other lane => signal off.
Everything takes place in 0.5 second. Or you blink and he’s gone.
Regarding the autocancel signal, yeh I do know about that. On old cars like the 2016 Corrola - you flick the signal, it stays flicked until you flicked it off or finish a turn. On new ones like Mini Cooper / BMW, a gentle flick would signal for 3 sec then automatically turn off. This is something different lol.

- Comment on Do you use your blinker in a car? 3 months ago:
Either you use it or you dont. It is good to use it though, make it a good habit. Plus, I want to announce to those around me especially when I am backing up into a garage: I am here, do not stand in my way. If you dont use it, obviously you can cause accidents.
That being said, there is a 3rd group who I absolutely fucking despised:
Those who use it just to show the cops or whoever the fuck around that “look, I use blinkers”
When changing lane or enter a turn, uually this type of driver will go Click-Turn-Click. No head movements whatsoever. Also turning the signal off immediately like the sound of it can cause them brain cancer or something.
