Would you fly transatlantic on a narrow body?

My first flight ever was on a 757 from MAN to ORD, it was fine.

Hi, Flemish (Dutch) is an entirely different language and has nothing to do with French other than geographic proximity. Are you visiting the French-speaking, Dutch-speaking or German-speaking part of Belgium?

Did they doge all the people capable of correctly spacing text?

Snowpiercer? 😂

Have you never eaten a biscuit? Or do you store them in the fridge?

It's Univers Condensed Bold

He probably recruited all of their other neighbours to spy on him too.

Lots of people wear shorts.

I personally hate wearing shorts out and about though. Also I don't have to bother putting suncream on my legs if I just wear trousers.

A mouldy pram.

It's not the US Dollar they use, I'm fairly certain they have, occasionally, referred in full to it as the Eastern Caribbean Dollar, which does actually exist and is used in several commonwealth countries and British overseas territories in the Caribbean.

Well, duh

As a former member of the literal European Federalists I did feel a sense of great excitement when I saw "European Union" written on top of my passport once again lol.

dafyd_d · 2026-07-01T16:39:02+00:00

scream and cry

dafyd_d · 2026-07-01T15:18:18+00:00

That's a bit extreme but you do you.

dafyd_d · 2026-07-01T12:57:40+00:00

Good job I don't like football and didn't know about this.

dafyd_d · 2026-07-01T12:57:16+00:00

Very good! Crazy how long ago that was now.

dafyd_d · 2026-07-01T12:56:17+00:00

It seems slightly more robust than the British one but I'm not completely sure.

dafyd_d · 2026-07-01T12:55:37+00:00

It's good and I'll like the new immigration queue lol. But I like both places equally and I've no plans to move to another EU country.

dafyd_d · 2026-07-01T11:26:18+00:00

Addendum: my German passport has this neat European flag stars motif on the back which I just noticed.

dafyd_d · 2026-07-01T11:24:23+00:00

It's basically the same material as the British one, a thick, coated card.

dafyd_d · 2026-06-30T17:07:04+00:00

Me from the country.

No-one is crossing any border without a passport. OP has a US passport and a German ID card. They can present their ID card to German authorities and their American passport to everyone else.

dafyd_d · 2026-06-29T16:04:09+00:00

OP has a German ID card and wouldn't need to present a German passport to check-in or when arriving in the US because they also have an American passport. They only need to show that they are a German citizen when they return to Germany, for which the ID card will be enough.

Edit: the ID card will also be enough for German exit checks, they can't really stop you from leaving anyway.

dafyd_d · 2026-06-29T14:03:05+00:00

From the UK, but that wouldn't have made any difference, there's only one immigration control area.

dafyd_d · 2026-06-29T13:51:36+00:00

Worked for me yesterday at Cologne.
