A study from the 80s showed that around 45% of fathers NEVER changed a diaper.

Things changed today but I would not be surprised if the dad never changed a diaper.

When the winter looks like that I can understand the metal.

It’s usually the other way around, we don’t fuck a baguette, we use our baguette to fuck.

I love that Herzog made the documentary “My Best Fiend” AFTER Kinski’s death.

I’m fascinated by this director and the actor.

They hated each other, were constantly fighting to the point Kinsky almost killed Herzog but they still shot 5 movies together in the most impossible locations.

At one point one of the native chief they were working with offered to kill Hinsky. Herzog declined the offer because he still needed the Hinsky to finish the movie.

For Fitzcarraldo they bought 3 similar 320 tons steamboat. They actually pulled the boat uphill manually without any special effects. Then in the scene were the boat crashed in the rapid they actually crashed the boat on rapid while filming inside. Half of the people involved in the filming of this sequence ended up injured.

Two plane crashed during the movie … Honestly I fell like what happened behind the scenes of the movie is even more fascinating and dramatic than the movie itself.

I had a roommate who was eating bird eyes pepper as a snack with her 2 years old daughter.

Seeing the 2 years old going for it I thought it should not be too bad so I tried a tiny bite of one. I was definitely wrong.

Same for the few Caribbean islands speaking French, they are French “départements”

I lived in a house where the whole floor was shaking when the washing machine was spinning.

So when the floor stopped shaking the laundry was ready.

The Flemings (northern part of Belgium) are speaking Dutch, the Walloons (southern part) are speaking French.

The Fleming are learning French first, because even though the Walloon are a minority and not as developed economically its important for the unity of the country to make effort to understand each other. They are learning English in second.

The Walloon don’t care about the Fleming, learning dutch for them is not a priority. They are learning a bit of English and only few very motivated Walloon are learning Dutch

I love Walloon, they are probably the friendliest people I’ve ever met but the love/hate with the Fleming is interesting.

A funny experience is to take a train from Liege to Brussels. Liege is is Wallonia so announcement are only in French. Then we pass through Leuven in the Flanders so now all announcement are only in Dutch even though we are still the same train. Finally we arrive in Brussels so announcement are made in 2 language.

Evolution is fascinating, all these species reinvented the same tool using different parts of the anatomy.

Sweet potato leaves can even be eaten, they are nice stir fried with garlic and ginger.

However never try to eat regular potato leaves, they are poisonous

Thats rooky numbers compared to the number of Villeneuve in France.

Thanks, I did not know that.

I’ve always assumed the France chose a different timezone just to not be on the same timezone than the British

In this situation the easiest would simply be like that

“what are in the bags anon…?”
“I…I brought books for the burning.”
“Anon I was joking about the book burning”
“Oops” proceed to discreetly put the bag of books back in the car or in a corner and continue the party. Maybe joke about it later in the night when everyone is feeling comfortable and ask if you really thought people would be burning books.

Real life is not like movies, it’s full of fuck up like that. You can just let it go and people don’t care.

It can become a cute story later when people asked how you met.

Mix the tuna with some mayo, add a bit of chives and siracha in the mix if you are feeling fancy and it makes a decent snack.

You go on Zennioptical.com, you pick one of the option under $15 dollar and you pick lenses with no coating.

You pay, wait a few weeks and receive your glasses in your mail box.

But if it’s too much you can pick a cheaper frame, they have glasses+lenses starting a $7 I think.

Look at Zenni. You can have Frame+lenses for $15.

I agree that the usual tomato does not bring anything in a burger. It’s a tradition that should stop.

However I’m not against having a slice of nice tomato in a special burger.

Bread, some good olive oil and nice tomatoes can be an amazing sandwich.

I’m kind on the same hill. I find that artificial sweetener leave a terrible taste in the mouth.

The worst is that some regular drinks are using sugar plus sweetener. I got this bad surprise now than once after taking the first sip.
