Hey Groesbeek! Stelletje benzineverslaafde boomers! Zo, nu ik jullie aandacht heb, een oplossing, gezien jullie er geen zin in hebben dat er een grote zware spoorlijn dwars door je dorp gaat. Dus hier het alternatief:

Een tram.

Jullie hoeven een minder opzichtige halte te bouwen EN lichtere infra die veel beter bij de "Franse flair" van jullie straatbeeld past, terwijl de buren bij Nijmegen en Kleve hun spoorverbinding weer hebben. Iedereen blij.

Growing old is inevitable. Growing up is a choice.

I'm sorry, English speakers, this only works in Dutch.

But if you insist, a hordeur is a screen door. It's pronounced very similar to hoarder, which is used in Dutch as a loanword.

This was for the many non-Dutch speakers, y'all can return to your business.

Hij was een echte hordeur hoarder.

According to another corner of the thread, it's a once-off trial of someone making exams in a classroom and seeing how his performance changes when he's alone, surrounded by guys, surrounded by girls, and, as the OP pictures: surrounded by girls in underwear.

A fun little outcomeWhen surrounded by only girls, he ends up scoring 69/100, a very Nice score, I would say.

Even fairly rural Europeans will consider that to be at least cycling distance.

I have four supermarkets in a radius of about 500 metres. Not only do I regularly walk, I pretty much buy only what I need for a few days, safe in the knowledge that if I need something now, I can be out & back in under half an hour, also knowing that most supermarkets here are reliably stocked with just what I need.

On a less related note, I did not expect to see this meme format in 2025. Not that I mind tho ^^

I wonder what surviving human held the record before balloons (excluding edge cases like jumping gaps on a mountain bridge). Probably it was someone falling from a cliff into snow or water, but maybe it involved something weird like a gunpowder explosion or volcano.

Because they use a honey comb.

 

TRANSCRIPT:

Me: Is this birdcage made out of nickel?
Pet Store: Aluminum I think
Me: So there's no nickel in this cage?
Pet Store: Don't you dare!
Me: It's a nickleless cage
Pet Store: GET OUT!

Pretty much what it says on the tin.
