American in the Netherlands: Woke up at 9 without my alarm, had coffee and a joint. No work today because I got put on burnout leave.

12: Had lunch, scheduled some appointments.
2pm: rode to supermarket and then the beach to have some champagne, joints, and make some music on my portable groovebox. I'll be here till sunset.

Might stop at my local pub for a beer and dinner afterwards.

No friends because NL is lonely as hell((

But yes, life is much better in Europe, even in the Netherlands ( I just personally don't really care for it)

maxxing

Taxing, faxing, relaxing; why do people put the extra X in there? indolence?

[–] MunkyNutts@lemmy.world 1 points 27 minutes ago

You always go one extra when going hard.

My day so far in Germany: wake up without alarm at 3:30, have coffee and smoke a joint with my husband (it’s his day off), eat cold vegetable Maultaschen (my beloved) for breakfast, walk to my job at the bakery for my 5:00 shift, run around sweating all day until my shift ends at 13:00, walk home, decompress, and eat the rest of the Maultaschen.

In an hour or two, my husband and I will go sit on the riverbank a couple blocks away, smoke a few joints, and he'll play the banjo (very uncommon here) while I read until we want to have dinner. Then we’ll make open faced sandwiches for dinner (very common here), and try to get to bed by 20-21.

[–] buffing_lecturer@leminal.space 1 points 1 minute ago

What is an open faced sandwich? Like a slice of bread with toppings?

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 9 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

a life without children...how I miss thee 😭

[–] StillAlive@piefed.world 2 points 38 minutes ago (2 children)

Give them away

[–] bedwyr@piefed.ca 2 points 14 minutes ago

Children are our most valuable resource! Sell them, /s

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 1 points 25 minutes ago

I live in the US. too many pedophiles for that to be safe.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 7 points 2 hours ago (4 children)

Does maultaschen mean mouth pockets?

[–] Maultasche@lemmy.world 2 points 34 minutes ago (1 children)

I think the more common translation is feed bags (the things you can tie in front of a horse's mouth)

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 1 points 28 minutes ago

Ok this makes a lot more sense as a translation.

Allegedly they were invented by some catholic monks who had some juicy meat on hand which they weren't allowed to eat on that day (friday I think) so they hid the meat from gods eyes by wrapping it in dough. Foolproof plan me thinks

[–] HulkSmashBurgers@reddthat.com 2 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Can't go wrong with meat stuffed into a starch (bread, potatoes, rice, etc)

[–] bedwyr@piefed.ca 1 points 11 minutes ago

You say that, what about corndogs! It's not the corn's fault they are toxic though, well, not principally the corn's fault.

That said I would eat 12 corn dogs right now with a bucket of ketchup and another of spicy mustard.

[–] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 6 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Yup! But ruder, more like maw pockets

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 1 points 56 minutes ago (1 children)

But why though? Why would anyone call them that?

I guess in English we have stupid names for foods too.

[–] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 1 points 38 minutes ago* (last edited 37 minutes ago) (1 children)

Their other name is Herrgottbescheißerle, or (roughly translated) lord god bullshitters, because they are said to have originated in Swabia as a way for people to eat meat during lent, because the meat was fully encased in dough, and therefore god wouldn’t see people eating it. I don’t know if that’s really true, but it’s a good story and a funny name.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 2 points 29 minutes ago (1 children)

Which is funnier because OP said theirs is vegetarian.

[–] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 1 points 23 minutes ago

Yeah, I wanted to specify because I didn’t cook them and I don’t know if that’s safe for the meat ones. It’s moderate gremlin behavior, but I eat them straight out of the packet and they’re still bomb. I prefer the taste of them fried with onions, but not enough that it’s worth doing too often. Plus, they’re perfect nutritional macros for me as they are. People also eat them in broth, sometimes with vegetables, but I always find they’re kind of inconvenient to eat as a soup.

[–] parson0@startrek.website 5 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Yes, literally translated it does. Maul is a bit on the vulgar side these days, you'd say Mund instead. For animals often Maul is still used. And if you tell someone to shut up you tell them Halt's Maul (hold your mouth)

[–] rustydrd@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 hour ago

Trap pockets.

This hits hard...

I woke up early today (without an alarm) because I had to bring my dog to a chiropractor at noon.

So I had a cup of coffee and a pipe, watching the morning dew dry up

It's one of 3 days off this week, and that's only because I sacrificed one additional day off to fake an extra shift on Friday. It pays double though, because of union regulations, even though I'd have taken it for regular pay anyway.

The only difference is, that I don't have friends to meet up with, mostly because I don't want to, and that I'm not in a drinking mode yet, but sounds like I could pick that up at some point

[–] Eyekaytee@aussie.zone 16 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

I had to bring my dog to a chiropractor

?

[–] cosmicrookie@lemmy.world 3 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Just a small adjustment to his stiff neck issue that he picked up a few months ago

[–] Zoldyck@lemmy.world 5 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Chiropraction is a scam

[–] Serinus@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

I'm the same way fortune tellers are, but sometimes they pick up some uncertified psychiatry to assist.

[–] TigerAce@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 points 4 hours ago

Today I reached 5/5 already at 13h

[–] hOrni@lemmy.world 18 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

That's my exact plan for Saturday.

[–] originaltnavn@lemmy.zip 6 points 3 hours ago

Same, except that I think I'll make a cake for said friends to eat after drinks. Saturdays are the best.

[–] 666dollarfootlong@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

Woke up without an alarm, drank two cups of coffee, rode my bike to the train, took the train, rode my bike to work, am now drinking coffee while waiting for my shift to start. Thats my finnish day so far

[–] Saapas@piefed.zip 2 points 2 hours ago

Some unemployed people I know actually do this. And I don't just mean students

[–] nbsp@programming.dev 3 points 2 hours ago

more siesta

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@thelemmy.club 2 points 2 hours ago

Sometimes it do be like that.

[–] VibeSurgeon@piefed.social 1 points 2 hours ago

[–] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 7 points 4 hours ago

I would like this

[–] bomberesque@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago) (1 children)
