Well, there goes my appetite, this Dutch guy hates herring. Can't stand the smell, taste or texture. 🤢
-
I'm not sure if I've had herring but I feel the same about pickles.

I don't think the IQ is intact

As a Dutch child, we shouldn't assume too much about their starting point.

This meme is timed really well with me being on holiday in the Netherlands. But it’s also true
-
One of my favorite things about visiting the Netherlands are the herring stalls :D
I prefer mine in a bun, but all forms are delicious.

Put 200 on Herring, this matchup isn't even close.
-
In Germany, we have pickled herring too, but this German is happy to admit that Hollandse Nieuwe reigns supreme.

Is that fish even fucking cooked? It sure doesn't look like it.
-
Seems like a waste of onion. At least get it on there!
-
Do Americans not eat fish?

You'd only get second-hand smoking if you spent every day in your life in the tourist hellhole of central Amsterdam. Try going to Germany instead, everything and everyone reeks of cigarettes and they even have vending machines for them in plain sight in amusement parks.
I swear, smokers in Europe have atrocious social graces with no concept of personal space. Even at the busiest and most cramped cafes, they will light up at the table with you or standing next to a doorway, and then act like you’re the problem if you’re annoyed or upset about second hand smoke. Beer gardens and outdoor seating almost universally include a carcinogenic haze, it just ruins the meal/drink imo to be tasting the air between bites
At least in America the social stigma is strong enough where they scurry off to their
opium densmoking area and get their nicotine hit with their brethren. Go in peace friend, you do you over there to y’all’s lungsSweet summer child, you should have seen Europe at the turn of the century.
I've seen doctors pulling out a cigarette and start smoking in the middle of a ward. Any place you'd go at night - a cafe, a bar, a pub, a disco - and you'd nearly vomit at how your clothes smelled the next day.
Everything and everyone smelled like tobacco.
Nowadays? It's paradise I tell you.
can confirm (germany), it's gotten better but in my childhood there was literally just a cig vending machine outside my block, like 30-40m away from a playground
The US used to have those vending machines in bars and some restaurants too, up until the 90s. The smoking section of restaurants was mostly an invisible line that cut the room in half, so you could have a smoking table literally right next to a non-smoking one.
While I am regularly annoyed at smokers in restaurants, at bus stops/train stations and in pedestrian zones, you haven't felt "everything" until you go to e.g. Turkey (as much as I love the country)
