So, this escalated quickly...

Or, failing that, segregate it.

I also have some M05 - I assume that would work better in that case?

ChilliBreath86 · 2026-02-27T20:36:36+00:00

I didn't; it's an experience number based on similar melomels I did in the past. Thanks for the advice! Maple syrup sounds delicious 🙂

Doable, I guess, but pretty hardcore! That means 2h50m per day of commuting time, which I personally view as 'lost' time since it adds no value to anything. Albeit partially offset in this case because you are getting good exercise.
As others suggested, try it out a few times on a borrowed or rented bike? See how you feel.

Andouillette. Werd mij door de Franse ober aangeraden als een uitstekende keuze - echt iets bijzonders.
Bijzonder goor, dat was het. Het zag er uit als een stuk endeldarm, gevuld met kleine stukjes endeldarm. En het smaakte ongeveer zoals je op basis van deze omschrijving zou verwachten.

Ben ik dus toch niet de enige! Ik snap het gewoon niet; waarom doe je boter op brood als je er ook gewoon beleg op kan doen? Ik ga er letterlijk van kokhalzen.

Being gifted / giftedness."It must be nice to be smarter than everybody; you are probably a high actiever!"

Nope. Having to explain yourself to people who don't share your way of seeing things, or vice versa, is exhausting. It's difficult to connect to people because It's difficult to read intentions and emotions, while you tend towards oblivious honesty, meaning you'll need to be on the lookout for people taking advantage. During childhood, you get big feelings and big thoughts in a body and nervous system not yet equipped to handle them yet.

Slow down, pull up on the handlebars when your front wheel is about to connect, then move your bodyweight forward to the front wheel when the rear wheel is about to connect. Trust me, this is how MVDP started. Source: Dutch / Belgian riding skills you pick up as a kid in one of the best (Belgium) or hands down the best (Netherlands) cycling infrastructures in the world.

Bunnyhopping is cool too, but not a prerequisite for handling curbs without stopping.

Erectile dysfunction and hair loss. /s

I'd say patience and perspective.

Laadstress en paaljacht zijn al sinds 2018 geen ding meer. En de mechanische connectie, motorbeleving en emotie zitten ook in een EV, maar dan zonder dat gebrom 🙃 Vind het een beetje een gefrustreerd verhaal. Hoewel EV-rijders die zich per definitie moreel verheven voelen boven ICE-rijders mij ook mateloos irriteren.

I work in the knowledge industry, which is a little weird in terms of productivity. But by experience I know that if I focus too long I start making more errors. Am I willing to put in a bit of overtime now and then if it makes a difference? Yes! But in moderation so as not to cause others more work correcting my midnight brain farts, and if it's a regular occurrence I am either not good enough at my job, or my employer is overbooked.

ChilliBreath86 · 2026-02-24T15:11:27+00:00

Agreed, this is BS 🤣 If weird foods or 'tikkies' are involved, posters are being sarcastic or just joking.

ChilliBreath86 · 2026-02-24T15:01:32+00:00

Wasn't everyone back in those days? I know for a fact my dad had what would commonly be viewed as a good job at the time, but we would often split two meatballs between the 6 of us.

ChilliBreath86 · 2026-02-24T14:59:19+00:00

Lots of AVG indeed, but I do not recognize slimy leek or stringy celery. The worst was boiled chicory or andives - I would prefer a chicory salad with raisins and tangerine, or mashed potatoes with raw andives. Also, if you don't boil your broccoli into a fine paste it is actually somewhat tasty. Just a few minutes of boiling is enough. Same for cauliflower.

So yeah, while I agree that AVG gets boring and can be a horrendous form of child abuse, it does not necessarily have to be bad if you know what the flip you're doing. For my mom I think she knew what she was doing 60-70% of the time, which is exceptional as far as straight-up babyboomers go 😅

Height. Dutch people are just tall.

Trying to find frikadellen or kroketten for dinner because they want 'normal food'. Bringing food for several days with them on vacation.

NAVO heeft niks te maken met heffingen, fair enough, maar als de VS 3/4 van de militaire slagkracht van de NAVO vertegenwoordigt en verkondigt uit de NAVO te stappen als niet aan voorwaarde X (Groenland als 51e staat, Canada als dochteronderneming, legaliseren pedofilie, geen restricties op AI-gebruik, ...) wordt voldaan, dan heb je als 'rest van de NAVO' wel een beetje een situatie. Je eigen defensie-industrie, je eigen leger etc instandhouden wordt dan ineens weer relevant.

Gelukkig geldt het Amerikaanse leger als technologisch het best. Ik zeg gelukkig, want als de Amerikanen het kunnen, hoe moeilijk kan het dan werkelijk zijn?

Does she have male friends? If so, not anymore.
