Wonder where we got it from…
Well, sometimes I wonder why half of Africa speaks French… so I get your point. Sorry for that…
There are other holidays when schools or some other establishments might be closed but banks are open.
Are they still called bank holidays or do they have another name?
- Comment on Babe, wake up. Polls are open 5 months ago:
I understand, but I’m kind of stuck by what’s implied. Like “money doesn’t make money today so everyone can stay home because the bank decides”
In France they are called “jour férié” from the old French “foirié”, literally “fair day”
- Comment on Babe, wake up. Polls are open 5 months ago:
As a French I only learned recently from a Londoner coworker how you call your national days off.
“Bank holidays”
Why?
Anyway, good luck from the bottom of my heart.

I wish my fellow Britts the very best in the outcome of those elections. And best what I mean is left.
Kisses from France. We’re with you guys.
- Comment on It's painful to not be able to see everything at once. 5 months ago:
TBH I didn’t invent it. I think it’s the way Apple refers to a closed Mac laptop since the clamshell iBook. And since I’m not a native English speaker I usually find the expression easier to use.
- Comment on It's painful to not be able to see everything at once. 5 months ago:
I must be lucky because I have a laptop + 2 24" 4K monitors setup and it turns out it is too much for me. Now I just use my laptop in clamshell mode with one horizontal monitor in landscape and the other portrait, but I wonder if won’t sell one those and keep the vertical one aside my open laptop.

Yes, my country is EU. My State is France.
I’m European before being French and I don’t care if it confuses people.

I’m a little confused here. Wouldn’t be the chips in second position since it’s a plane?

It depends on the war we are talking about I guess?
The only war I would participate without question would be if my country (EU) was invaded.
Absolute based in any other scenario.

OP made a little typo in the title of its post. It made sense then.
- Comment on I'm am myself and myself is bad at fitting in 6 months ago:
I kind of regret you remove your happy mistake my friend, but I respect your decision.
As you see I’m bad at everything else as well
Don’t say that. You’re perfect just the way you are.
- Comment on I'm am myself and myself is bad at fitting in 6 months ago:
Is that a well?
- Comment on I'm am myself and myself is bad at fitting in 6 months ago:
Why are you am? Did you try not to be am? I was am myself but myself being am wasn’t fitting well. Well fuck it there’s nothing wrong with being am and well. I am am and proud.

Friendly remember that when the Egyptians were building the pyramids, the Europeans were still hunting the last mammoths, and it blows my mind every time I think about it.

Aristotle said a whole lot of dumb things but proving square root of 2 is irrational was its master move. It led to the suicide of a good bunch of pythagoricians.

- Comment on He came with receipts 6 months ago:
TwitterBoy showing his blatant ignorance against one of the people who literally invented modern machine learning.
Nothing shockingly unexpected from the very stable 10D chess master genius of course, but oh my, how embarrassing it must be for all the people working for him.
