Americans: I use miles and pounds
Europeans: I use kilometres and kilograms
Canadians: [snorting a line of assorted measuring systems] I'm 5'3, I weigh 150lbs, horses weigh 1000kgs, my house is an hour away and I drive 80 km/h to get there, I need a cup of flour and 1L of milk
@CzechTV Komentátoři ČT Sport během zápasu Finsko-Maďarsko řešili proč Juho Olkinuora používá jméno Jussi - v pěti letech poprosil rodiče, aby mu začali říkat Jussi, protože ve školce byl jiný chlapec jménem Juho, který ostatní šikanoval, a Jussi s ním nechtěl mít nic společného.
@ThatDarnSteve I once ordered hot sauces from @Heatonist to Finland and dealing with customs was such a headache... loved the sauces but almost not worth the hustle :(
@eicul Babička se při oslavě svých 90 narozenin zeptala celé rodiny, koho budeme kdo volit. Jednohlasem jsme jí odpověděli, že Pavla. Nadšeně si oddychla, že ho teda bude volit taky :D
@PWL_Podcast When my partner (from Finland) saw fireflies for the first time during one summer in my home country (Czechia) he thought he was high and seeing things 🙈🤣
@ErikEdbladh@olgatokariuk Same in Czechia - gathering with closest family/friends and gift giving on 24th. 25th and 26th is for relax and visiting other family&friends.
@ThatDarnSteve If I wouldn't have my dogs to take care of, I would barely make it out of bed these days...
Basically counting hours until winter solstice when the days start getting longer 🙈
