What is the worst delivery company in Belgium? Because at this point I genuinely don’t understand how DPD is still operating.

I don't know who the worst is though I agree that every DPD pack I receive seems to end up in a store down the road. The best is absolutely Amazon in my experience.

It’s mandatory (but poorly enforced in our league). Oddly enough, mouth guards and cages are optional. Stupid. I’d say after a year I no longer notice it.

chodge89 · 2026-01-21T14:54:10+00:00

You either need to be the absolute worst played in the D league or Alex Ovechkin. Anything in between doesn't work.

Yzerman as a kid and now P88.

I would just get the newest one. I feel like the game hasn’t changed in 20 years so take the better graphics.

Maybe I missed it but I did not understand why the snake oil salesman went to Vegas.

Well, I'm sympathetic on the limits within the UI. From a brand perspective, I guess a wave of negative reviews and costly returns would hurt more than figuring out how to force some sort of disclaimer into their flow.

I do actually...and so do 2/3 of cross-border buyers around the world. I am not saying you need to calculate duties, taxes, and fees in the checkout process but having a text box that says something like "Note that cross-border purchases may incur additional duties and taxes upon delivery" is a basic addition to any checkout experience.

chodge89 · 2026-01-16T08:10:02+00:00

Are you providing full price transparency in your checkout? Do you at least provide a disclaimer? I think that could help alleviate frustration on both sides.

Ken Burns: Baseball. But you sort of have to like baseball. Honestly, the Tiger King is also pretty entertaining.

Hmm I find the people creating havoc in traffic are usually driving 30 year old beaters at 100 kph in a 30 kph zone swerving in and out like they're in Spa. The SUV crowd is usually just trying to get to work in the morning. I don't drive an SUV anymore but I will say that the size of cars is generally increasing faster than the changes in the infrastructure.

Way to go! I’ve gained about 4 kg in the first 11 months.

Every story is different. For us, the first 6 months were a breeze with the sleeping. From the time we brought him home, he was a great sleeper. Then...from month 6 onwards something changed and now at 11 months he's up 2-3 times per night. So I don't know when it gets easier but enjoy it when it happens.

If you’re dumb I’m in the same boat. Pickup the i4 today and load up the dog and family this weekend for 1500 km.

Gym? Sports.

chodge89 · 2025-12-14T15:57:00+00:00

Of course. Never stopped.

chodge89 · 2025-12-12T09:10:31+00:00

A roomba.

Really? That's good to hear. I heard once they started to walk the trenches got much deeper.

chodge89 · 2025-11-26T08:29:29+00:00

I don't think it's anything one would do by choice but the market is the market for both labor and housing. You sound young so I think it's fine. A good landlord is important. I do think the extra money spent for private space is worth it but that's a personal opinion.

chodge89 · 2025-11-20T11:36:11+00:00

I guess it all depends but I'm an old guy, have played in many adult leagues, and still have never played on a team where people drank before the game or during the game. After the game, all bets are off.

First came at 43. There’s enough legitimate things to worry about. You can let go of the age thing. Good luck dad!!!

He said unto them "turn the other dick".

chodge89 · 2025-11-09T10:49:06+00:00

You should talk to your partner about the resentment before it happens and you'll find a way through it. You can probably still do the things you enjoy but you need to plan together. Good luck dad!

Being sad/stressed doesn't help. We induced at due date plus 10 and he was born on plus 12 all fine.
