@Codex404 It's a bloody good barbershop ;) The one in Hoofddorp is really good!
-
@athlon Ive heard that before from colleagues.
-
@Codex404 Yeah, and my dad heard that from his colleague. There used to be a good one in Nieuw-Vennep in Polish shop, but recently it has gotten worse and worse.
-
@karma Dank u wel 😅 I'm still learning the language tho...
-
@athlon thats ok
-
@karma it is NOT! I feel like a small child that doesn't know what the hell is going on. I started attending the Dutch course, and I save myself with German and English, but I wish I could speak Dutch with no struggle. I know that Rome wasn't built in a day, but still.
-
@athlon yeah compared to German and English, Dutch is packed with awkward sentence structures, wording logic and some truly fucked up language subchannels therefore it might taste abit like that new JS framework that came out yesterday.
-
@karma to be honest, the biggest "laugh" for me was how to spell "goedemorgen", mainly the first part. Because the fact that you either spell it "hude" or "huje", and the second version in Polish means... A gentlemen's sausage.
That just shows how immature I am... -
@athlon wait "morgen" means third leg?
-
@Codex404 no, the way you say "goede". The sound is oddly similar, just that
-
@athlon ah :)
Good to know. Just yelling kurwa to Polish people who dont look when participating in traffic begins to lose its power. -
@Codex404 yeah! I can call you a dick whenever I want and it's still polite!
-
@athlon whahahaha
-
@karma but in the end... I actually enjoy learning Dutch more than German for instance.
-
@athlon I agree, German is more horrible ... All the shouting 😃
-
@karma in German everything you say sounds like you wanna murder someone
-
@Codex404 I did internship with company that was also based in germany ... When somebody would pick up the phone to a german caller, the volume went up with 65% haha
-
@athlon Schmetterling isnt such a harsh word as people think based off those videos. In an average conversation it does not sound like a monster. Or that is my experience with Germans (although Ive only talkes to germans <30 in the Bonn/Köln area) maybe a 50 year old german man might sound harsh?
-
@Codex404 maybe... I have a friend who's German and even she agrees that German sounds "harsh".

Fuck that day, honestly. Today during my driving lesson I was a witness of a car crash literally 5 meters in front of me (the older man cut the road of other guy, that other guy hit the old man's car and old man has hit the lamp post. Good thing no was injured, except of few bumpers, car doors and lamp).
The train which was supposed to take me back to Leiden was 10 minutes late, so I couldn't catch the earlier bus.
When I got off the train, went to catch a next bus, there was huge crowd outside, because police was taking care of the suspicious bag left in front of the train station (pic). Lots of cop, lots of people. Fortunately that wasn't a bomb.
The only positive thing was that I helped some nice Hindi guy find his bus 😁
