Yeah, it looks like they forgot to take the sign-writing class. Everyone think they can write a sign until they try it. It’s a simple skill, but it’s not entirely without skill.
Anyway, the handwriting on the sign says “50% off select merchandise. Price will scan at register. Final sale.”
Good game or grin grin.
So, he was about 37 at the time. He got the title at he age of 33.
Imagine that.
Pst… Don’t tell… but, small kids, small problems. ;)
I’d rather change a hundred diapers and bootlefeed in the middle of night than having to worry about if they made it safe home after a night out.
No, man… Appreciate the simplicity. Enjoy the sound of little feet walking little steps on the floor. It’ll be gone before you realise that you need to spend even more time trying to find something on the TV that both you and your better half want to watch at the same time…
Kids are great.
Having seen it, I have to say that it’s inspired by India.
It’s not a very good movie, but it has those scenes.

I’m pretty much opposite. I don’t even know why I carry this unknown mass around in my pockets. My keys are probably in there, otherwise the car wouldn’t start.
Mvh. exist and is used commonly in Danish. It’s considered old-fashioned. The modern version is just Vh.
Those are official abbreviations that can be found in a dictionary.
The ones OP posted aren’t all official. TBH and SMH are official. IMO is internet slang.
There’s not a lot of consensus on internet slang abbreviations in Danish. It was more common back in the texting days, when all girls would end their messages with an S for “smiling”, SS for “smiling sweetly”, or KKK for “hugs hugs and kisses”.

Let’s not hope both take a stroll on 5th avenue at the same time.
Oh boy…I’ll bring you up to speed.
When I was a kid we used to roll down hills in wheels. Those were the Goodyears.
What do you call 365 condoms? A fucking Goodyear.
Jeg kunne ikke sove i går, så jeg fandt en dokumentar på Filmstriben “Antropocæn” fra 2018.
Den viser med meget flotte billeder nogle lokationer hvor nutidens menneskehed i øjeblikket sætter sit præg på kloden og med få ord eller interviews forklarer hvad menneskerne laver dér.
Det drejer sig om minedrift i Rusland, Tyskland og Italien, en losseplads og krybskytteri i Afrika, lithium produktion og skovdrift i Sydamerika, olieudvinding i USA, koral-afblegning ved Australian og kystbeskyttelse i Kina.
Det bemærkelsesværdige ved filmen er at den ikke er formynderisk eller dommedagsagtig. Den viser det bare. Her er stedet, her er mennesket. Sådan ser det ud og sådan gør de. Filmen er i et tempo der lægger op til at man selv tænker over det.

Seat belt regulations saved a lot of lives despite massive objections and many attempts from both drivers and manufacturers to work around the regulation. https://www.history.com/news/seat-belt-laws-resistance
Aluminium is fine for acidic beverages and it is possible to buy juice in a can, but that would be a single serving. Juice and milk make sense to buy in larger sizes for multiple servings. Plastic bottles are also an option for those, but it really depends on how they’re recycled locally if that makes more sense than the cartons.
The aluminium red solo cups ought to be recyclable just as any other aluminium product, provided that they’re returned in the first place and not mixed with other disposable garbage. Selling them as disposable seems counterproductive. A better option would be to use actual cups or glasses for picnics and bring them back home. Washing a cup in a dishwasher is much better than recycling aluminium.
It’s not easy for consumers to make a good choice.
Technically they’re “downcyclable”. The materials can be separated and used for other purposes, but they’re not “cycled” back into being another tetrapak.
It’s also a very energy intensive procedure so even if it’s possible to use some of the materials again, it’s by no means as environmentally friendly as products that can be recycled for their purpose. Take for instance glass bottles and aluminium cans, they can both be recycled into glass bottles and aluminium cans.
Some places also reuse glass bottles by cleaning them. This also costs energy, but not as much as grinding it down and heating it to produce new glass.
Aluminium cans are probably the best single use beverage container as of now.
The best one is not to get one in the first place. Reduce, reuse, recycle, reclaim.
Tetrapak is in the “reclaim”.
Carrying a personal reusable water bottle is a good idea, because it reduces the production of singular use containers.
Looks like those are crisps and not chips.
Crisps could theoretically be made from fries, chips cannot.
In order to be a chip, it literally has be a “chip” of a potato.
Crisps can be made from anything.
No, dinosaurs can’t fly.
Flying 'saurs are “pterosaurs”
It’s bicycle with a helping engine, but it’s not electric.
The thing that looks like a battery is the fuel tank. The engine is the metal attachment left and below of the center of the back wheel.

The picture of the “Chinese 50 lane road” was an internet hoax. It wasn’t a road. It is a toll gate, and it also only has 25 lanes.
The Katy freeway that OP posted has 26 lanes and is considered the “largest” road. The picture doesn’t really show it that well, and I’m also not sure if the feeder roads ought to count. It “only” has 6 ordinary lanes in both directions but a lot of entryways, exits and other designated lanes.
According to Guinness Book of Records, the widest road is in Brazil and is 250 meters wide. However this is also just a technicality, because it is also a 6 lane road with a really really wide median strip.
