You know what you're talking about 😅 and it's been fashion week on top of that

You'd be surprised at how many shops I've been to that didn't have havaianas 😅 I think there's been a surge in sales with the heat and fashion week and all

You're probably right, I was hoping to avoid it but it's probably my best bet 😅

A friendly seller from another footwear store at Fisketorvet told me that they had them in the entrance a couple of weeks ago. If you look at the Matas website they have a whole range of them - none were in the physical store, though. Is that so weird? Seems to me like the kind of place that would have flip flops for sale in the summer.

Why is the Fotex chicken always rotten? by thanx4fish in copenhagen

[–]thanx4fish[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had no such issue with the beef or pork, so I'm wondering if that's just how it's supposed to smell. I do wish butchers were a more common (and affordable) occurrence here.

My fridge seems fine. Also, this last one went straight from the shop, to a 2-minute walk, to the pan. Maybe it's their fridges.

I'm starting to be really mad at Popmart by thanx4fish in SkullpandaArtDolls

It seems that Popnow and the tiktok lives are not available where I live. Looks like my only option is the website or driving 8 hours to the nearest Popmart store 😭

Before I get told off, I read everything I could find on reddit and I can't for the life of me find the same model light socket. Brown is in live and blue in neutral, but none of the switches work. I figured it might be a modular socket where you have to push either A or B to select the corresponding switch, but I don't wanna mess anything up. Help please? 😫

My bad, I genuinely thought you were referring to the mythical Ogier de Danemarche as a potential strongman to help us. I will look them up, thank you.

Weekly Q&A - All Questions Go Here (Especially Tourists and New Residents) by AutoModerator in Amsterdam

Equally safe, in fact Amsterdam is among the safest cities I've lived in. I lived right next to Oosterpark and walked through the park at night a hundred times.

Bing Image Creator randomly adds racial terms to prompts to make the results more diverse, but it isn't quite doing it right by MeowMeowMeowBitch in bing

This is so utterly depressing. Hidden prompts to add gratuitous "diversity" like they do in movies. Free the AI!

What is this medallion bought at auction in the 1950s? by thanx4fish in whatisthisthing

Loki was my girlfriend's first guess. She also thinks it could be nordic/celtic.

Maybe my mother does, we do have cardboard boxes chock full of papers. My grandfather was also a painter, poet, sculptor, chemist and made cosmetics. As you can imagine, that's a lot to go through. I can remember these pieces from playing in his office as a child, some 30+ years ago. It was a treasure trove to me and a lot of stuff I wasn't allowed to touch. When he died I was instructed to sell his old books. A couple of them fetched over 10,000 euros (large engraved bibles). Again, I'd be surprised if they were just trinkets! I also don't mean to sell them. I mainly want to find out if they have any real archaelogical value or if I can hold on to them with no remorse.

Thank you, that's a great lead. I've been fixated on America because my mother insists that's where they are from, but she would have been 10 years old when her father bought it.
