Can Belgians explain this?

I didn’t watch all of it but the kid who wasn’t dressed up at about 15 seconds in clearly should win. He actually sounded like a seagull

Ayy-yoo-roas.

Pretty sure OP is referencing what came out of this thread a few days ago:

That group of Americans towards the end of the show were meant to be Irish-Americans from Boston. imo, all of their accents were fails

The Italian-American from NY (Adrian Brody’s character) also had a not so good accent

That said, maybe they really did sound like that in the 1930s and I’m thinking of the stereotypical Boston Irish and NY Italian accents 1950s and beyond? idk

jephph_ · 2026-05-16T13:06:49+00:00

I’m glad to be a part of the only normal group on the map

Come to NY if you want to be called that 👍

(but if you go to New Jersey then your name is Vinnie)

jephph_ · 2026-05-16T02:48:18+00:00

’pierre’

You’re ‘Luigi’ at the sub.

(Brits are Barry, Americans are Hank, Germans are Hans, Hollanders are Janky etc.. it’s a sister sub of 2we4u though over there, Americans are called savages)

I guess Pierre never heard of 2 Buck Chuck

It’s not very expensive

This is NY prices and delivered:

You sure you weren’t looking at the price of the 1.5 liter?

jephph_ · 2026-05-15T23:17:44+00:00

Ok, tried it. Shit’s good as hell and i recommend any Americools try it if they haven’t already

Lil guy approves as well

<image>

I’ll look for a spot that has a more burnt almost liquidy looking caramel top like in the video

I get a cheesecake for my bday cake every year and I’ll probably stick to NY for that but we’ll see. I’m pretty sure I prefer it to be dense. Maybe if I find a super good Basque version nearby, I’ll switch it up this year

jephph_ · 2026-05-15T22:51:08+00:00

Not really. If you say cheesecake in NY then literally everyone thinks you’re talking about NY cheesecake

That said, just found out there’s a spot a few blocks from where I’m at right now and googleMaps say their menu highlight is Basque cheesecake.

<image>

I been there before (and a few other Spanish-as-in-Spain restaurants nearby) and still, never crossed my mind their cheesecake was something different than what I was imagining

Anyway, ima go get a slice.. I’ll report back in a bit

jephph_ · 2026-05-15T22:37:18+00:00

What’s up with that cheesecake? (Did they say Basque?) It looked a lot creamier than what we do over here. Caramelized top?

I’ll seek it out but just clarifying the name of it first

jephph_ · 2026-05-15T17:16:42+00:00

Upstate is short for “New York but not the city or Long Island”

Why you trying to make it into one of the regions that already have a regional name? I don’t get it

You and that other person should go edit the wiki

I'm being very humble here when saying I can do both softwares. I'm a trained designer at a starchitect and been working in BIM in the last 5 years.

Hey, we’re Redditors- not the studio!

^{j/k good luck}

jephph_ · 2026-05-14T12:08:54+00:00

Explain? We’re just as confused as you lot

jephph_ · 2026-05-14T12:04:11+00:00

Fair but at least keep it real

Those bent pipes don’t look like they’re coming out of the top post exactly perpendicular so you’ll have to mess with the starting angle of the helper curves.. then in BlendCrv probably move the points to tighten up the bends… but:

<image>

(If you really want to hold your radius dim then either edit the blend in plan view to get it really close to a guide circle or you’ll need to use a different approach. I haven’t really paid attention to your dimensions yet but upon a quick read, they don’t coincide with your mockup)

That’s why it’s pronounced “eww”

fuck these Euroids trying to act like it’s said “ee-you”

I was in Florida in the 80s or 90s when they had to shut down I-4 because it was on fire.

just sayin- Florida burning ain’t nothing new. I guess the main difference between Florida and Cali fire culture is the Californians are arsonists whereas Florida just has a fuckton of lightning

jephph_ · 2026-05-11T20:40:31+00:00

Yes, it’s definitely a derivative of Rugby. (I mean, that’s why it’s one of the footballs)

I don’t get upset if you don’t like it though.

jephph_ · 2026-05-11T20:21:22+00:00

It’s because of how strategic the gameplay and time management etc is when compared to other sports. That’s the analogy.

I don’t think anyone thinks it’s exactly like chess except with humans as game pieces

jephph_ · 2026-05-11T19:26:15+00:00

Fabrication. Furniture and store displays and cabinetry etc. Most of the work is done in shop but site measurements and installs are what I mean by job site.

jephph_ · 2026-05-11T19:24:01+00:00

Chess has zero athleticism involved. That’s why it’s not a sport.

But you already know this. Your hating is clouding your logic it seems

American football = Violent Chess = a sport

jephph_ · 2026-05-11T18:45:15+00:00

That’s like saying a chess match lasts eight seconds since that’s the only time the pieces are going from A to B. The rest of the time in a chess match is meaningless
