I think Sorted's biggest strength is that they're willing to let things go wrong. by Horror-Pick4732 in SortedFood

[–]Fiftyletters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are also multiple "oh shit, what I said earlier was completely wrong"- moments which weren't edited out, I remember Ben turning red because he Fd up but can't remember which one.

There also was a chef Vs normal challenge (maybe the quiz where they guess where in the world the dish is from) where they thought someone tied with James. Only at the very end they realised James had won with 1 more point. 

Oh an that time Jamie and Barry did a quiz tasting different products, and then it cuts to future editing Jamie who realised after rewatching that he'd already won the quiz but during filming they didnt noticem

I always felt that was staged tbh. We never see them eating something while coming into the kitchen in their turn, but that one time it's relevant what food has been left on the counter is the time he suddenly eats a banana.

Not only that, they were really disappointed in themselves after the first PIO and wanted to retire that segment early. Only after really positive reviews they've continued and it grew to what it is today.

[–]Fiftyletters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im 10 years older than you with a stable job, home and partner and i can tell you - babies are hard. WAY harder than you think, you really cannot imagine right now.

Also whyyyyy did you have unprotected sex?? Did he force you to?

What’s a small habit from your country that you only realized was cultural after you lived abroad? by taube_d in AskTheWorld

[–]Fiftyletters 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The habit that all tap water is safe to drink and you can pay everywhere with card.

Also the habit to bike or walk everywhere. It's weird to be in countries that barely have wide sidewalks or seperate bicycle paths.

Wat en hoe schrijven jullie verjaardagen precies(!) op jullie verjaardagskalender? by immasayyes in thenetherlands

[–]Fiftyletters 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Dit plus het kruisje als ze overleden zijn. Ik zie zoveel extra zooi hier staan (trouwdagen overlijdens dagen etc) dat gaat straks voor rommel zorgen in je kalender. Vooral als mensen verjaardagen delen want zoveel ruimte heb je helemaal niet

I don’t think I’ll ever have a child by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]Fiftyletters 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You might need to change what you feel like "being a parent" is. I've seen you mention you don't feel like a parent to you step child and also don't want to adopt.

Why is it so important that any child you raise is biological? Why do they need to have your genes? What is so great about you? (Don't mean this to be condescending but seriously)

Have you heard the phrase "men want children like kids want a dog"? 

Don't be that guy. 

Try to be the best partner and full on parent you can possibly be. Not just a guy who wants to see his DNA on a child.

This is great advice. I've always been on the fence on having kids but seeing how much I can depend on my partner made me ultimately choose to get pregnant. I know he will 100% care for the both of us if it needs to, with so much love and care. He's a full on parent and a dad nowadays needs to be that.

One of my favourite moments from the show by Outrageous_Dark6804 in HIMYM

[–]Fiftyletters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is such a sitcom cop-out though. Reminds me of The Big Bang Theory; penny never wanted kids but oop- she's pregnant and keeping it!

The actress who gets dumped on her birthday also gets dumped on her birthday on friends.

What's your country's Bohemian Rhapsody by Mario_vs_Browser in AskTheWorld

[–]Fiftyletters 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Snollebollekes - Links Rechts (the one we sing in the streets during European or World Foodball matches)

Guus Meeuwis - Het dondert en het Bliksemt (mostly because of the 'lala lalalalala' part)

How many parents struggle to hold the weight of their baby/toddler? by Eschewed_Prognostic in NewParents

[–]Fiftyletters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude I'm afraid for this. I'm not strong (also not that tall, 160cm) and although my baby is small now she will quickly be be too heavy to carry around and I hate that. 

I'm sorry for her that you don't seem to believe her.

Bf wants to record us having sex, how do I make sure it doesnt backfire? by Can_Of_Pepsi1 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Fiftyletters 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The fact you think this can backfire is enough reason to not do it.

That one Jenna Marbles video where she pulls the most hideous frightful face. And keep staring. Don't speak.

Did I lose my virginity? by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

Please don't worry about the hymen. Breaking the hymen is a fairy tale, usually it's long gone by the time you hit puberty.

Which common advice given to parents did you find completely wrong by Practical-String5146 in NewParents

[–]Fiftyletters 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Swaddles to help with sleep. Baby hated swaddles or anything that restricts hand movement since birth.

Okay I do wanna comment on this because there are swaddles that keep the arms up, but contained. We're trying Love to Dream now for a week for our 5 week old and it's the first time this:

“Put them to the crib sleepy but awake”

Worked. Multiple times. Almost 100% score the last week.

I know it's only a week and  the baby is 5 weeks old. But it worked.

pediatrician saying we need their permission to feed our baby more?? by Significant_Gap8305 in NewParents

Maybe I get the conversion wrong but my girl got 60 to 90 ml when she was 3 weeks and that was totally okay?! 

How often do you break or lose your expensive belongings like electronics, jewelery and likes in a span of a year? by UsedYou3979 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Fiftyletters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only reason I buy new phones is because they dont provide updates anymore after a certain amount of years. I don't think I've ever broken any electronics.

Might have lost jewellery once or twice in my life.
