North Korea is so starved that their cameras remove 10 pounds

Or Grük got real fucking good at throwing spears hard

I want mine to just scream “AAAAAAA-” continuously and base the volume on the speed

Bruh English is not even my first language and I started really understanding RATM’s lyrics near the end of highschool, without having to ever read them because I was too lazy cool for that. I do have pretty good English comprehension skills but I’m sure the average native speaker does better than me

I thought this was covered by “This is America” /s

It’s probably poisoned like in many countries

I was thinking, no way they have France or Italy beaten in absolute coffee consumption. We are quite addicted to coffee and there’s 10x more of us

This guy murders. Username checks out too

Haha military industrial complex go brrrr

^(This is meant as a tongue-in-cheek appreciation of the USA actually doing some good with said military industrial complex, please don’t get mad)

Price per kg is still mandatory in France. The full history of it for every product is not. So we don’t necessarily notice the price increase if it’s done in small increments

Normally the good jokes are also somewhat smart, even though they are not “serious”. A joke about Texas being big is not very smart, IMHO

Yeah this is literally Europeans clowning on the dumb “joke” with our own version of the dumb joke.

Yeah, well, I can drive 1 hour and cross 3 borders. And I won’t have to go through an immigration/customs checkpoint at any of these borders.

Old-timey style housekeepers are basically only a thing for the ultra rich, but hiring someone to clean your house and/or do some laundry is quite common in the upper middle class

Interesting. Here in France the “bourgeois” thing is usually to not have your guests take their shoes off inside (because you’re not the one doing the cleaning later)

My dad has a few pairs of boat shoes for this reason, and my mom uses her old pairs of Birkenstocks.

You may not like it, but the easy answer to this question is Crocs. You buy them in bulk, leave them by the door, and slip them on to do your thing outside. Or I guess sabots if you are oldschool and French (they pair very well with some type of slippers we call “charentaises” that were originally made as inserts for sabots. So basically if you are using this ancient combo you don’t even have to take your slippers off to go outside).

For the bike ride you would obviously get some proper “outside” shoes. Although if you have dedicated gardening shoes you could choose to keep them on if you don’t care about looks (and if my grandparents were of any indication, I’d say that if you have grandkids, you don’t).

Not really, it is quite terribly sticky. But it will outlast you, and heats up more or less uniformly. Also it’s great for stuff that is better served warm because you can make a huge pot of it and the thermal inertia of the pot will keep it warm for a while

Also idk if you know this already, but I found that usually, heating some water in it for a while (a good 30 mins, you don’t need to bring the water to a boil either), will help a fair bit with the cleanup of some sticky residues.

I’m more of an enameled cast iron enjoyer myself

Yeah believe me I know all about that. My dad is a materials scientist and has been rambling about us eating Teflon for a few decades now. Using metal utensils with the non stick pans is one of the few ways to truly get yelled at in my parents’ house

Meh. It’s not that dangerous if you use a non-stick pan of good quality. And toss it in the bin as soon as the non-stick surface starts to show signs of scraping…

If you want to avoid this problem altogether you can just buy cast iron or enameled pans. But enamel is a lot stickier (and heavier) than teflon
