If I ordered a pint and got anything less than 500ml I’d be pissed haha.

Well I don’t know if it’s a common thing but I heard someone from there tell me about this so I thought that’s what you were referencing. In their story it was even about how you were limited to hunting a certain number of squirrels per day, but maybe they were winding me up haha.

Man at least get your stereotypes right, the squirrel eaters are in Québec, we barely have them in Europe.

Ouuuh I didn’t know Costa Rica had cheap dental, might be a good excuse to visit again, I really loved that place.
I’m European but still in a similar situation, I have the house but getting my teeth fixed here would cost me like 10k€+, fuck that… The usual recommended destinations are Romania, Turkey, some other ones, but since I’m not only too cheap to get them fixed but also really scared of dental work due to the extreme pain I’ve experienced in the past both in and out of the chair, the idea of going on a trip to a foreign country for it is fucking terrifying. I’m also missing way more than 2 and what’s left isn’t exactly pristine either…

I mean I find any salad pretty frustrating to eat, the ones with a lot of ingredients you can’t get the stuff on the fork, and the mostly leafy ones I feel like a cow ruminating for an hour to get 50 calories in…
- Comment on Now that's an interesting question 3 days ago:
It’s an old tactic used by American travellers, put a Canadian flag cap or patch on the bag and present themselves as Canadian to avoid the negative stereotypes, I’ve personally talked to more than one American doing this in my life and read about it more often online too. I guess it’s only gonna get more popular.

- Comment on Wales’s 20mph speed limit has cut road deaths. Why is there still even a debate? 6 days ago:
To be fair in NL a lot of people ignore the speed limits if the road invites you to drive faster (not enough traffic calming stuff). Not a lot and still driving safely but for example there’s this huge straight road near my house that they changed to 30 recently but didn’t make any changes to the infrastructure and pretty much everyone still drives 50 on it. Also on highways it’s 100 everywhere during the day but you see a lot driving 110/120 where there’s no speed control.

Yeah the Dutch way of saying time is also messed up, I still have to think about it for a moment every time.

Quatre-vingt dix huit or quatre-vingt dix neuf are definitely more of a mouthful and illustrate the point better.

So are you a one (wo)man band filming/editing their content? I’m not necessarily opposed to doing this with a (good) youtuber if the content is high-brow/interesting/educational etc but the idea of doing it for a tik tok star sounds positively dreadful. In fact I refused such a proposal before because the “stars” were really not my vibe and also they gave some red flags, but at least they were still “musicians” not JUST ad-peddlers.

I don’t think so, I can’t find the author or the book except other memes. There’s a James Michener author but he didn’t write this book. Pretty sure it’s just a funny cover.
- Comment on The Simple Act of Buying a Graphics Card Is the Defining Misery of PC Gaming in 2025 2 weeks ago:
I have a powerful computer for my work with a 3090, i9 etc. I still prefer gaming on the Xbox, it’s in the living room, it doesn’t bother me with driver issues, CPU overheating, and other random bugs I get on the big machine, and it’s in the living room where I’m also spending the time with my family rather than stuck in my cave upstairs.
- Comment on Owing your home today is nearly impossible, but even if you did the ever increasing property taxes will bury you 3 weeks ago:
Sorry how much??? I think we pay like 7/800€ property tax yearly on a house worth about 400k€… I thought US had low taxes.

Fingers needed to remain mission-critical levels of clean for one reason or another, but the donut was also too tempting, and boom, fork-donut.
