Ok. That’s it. This is the funniest interaction on this website I’ve ever seen. Nothing can beat this, absolutely nothing.

Het radioverslag van Andy Houtkamp op Radio 1 hoort trouwens ook in de Femke-Bol-laatste-rondje-in-27-verschillende-talen-fuik. #OlympischeSpelen

Great thinkers are often prescient in their pronouncements, and Hannah Arendt is one of the greats...

[Tom Harwood @tomhfh]

Dominic Cummings explains the institutional resistance Starmer is set to face.

His assessment is Starmer is unprepared for the fights to come. Unless he tackles the core legal constraints at the core of government his agenda will come up short.

In 2 pages @JeffBezos teaches you more about high standards than you'll learn from reading 2 books. The art of summarising that which resists summary is critical to achieving greatness. The world will forget you, except what you've written down, then what you've written down well

Die zag ik niet aankomen. Maar hij heeft wel gelijk.

@JMSlagter Bescheiden én kamervullend. Ik vind het knap.

@vueling We are trying to change a reservation and we keep getting an error message when doing so via the website. What is going on? Can we speak to someone? We need to do it within 24 hours ....

“Things I have learned from the movies"

Having watched hundreds of movies, they have taught me many things that I would like to share with you today:

1. If being chased through town, you can usually take cover in a passing St Patrick's Day parade - at any time of the year.

2. All beds have special L-shaped top sheets that reach up to armpit level on a woman but only waist level on the man lying beside her.

3. All grocery shopping bags contain at least one stick of French bread.

4. Once applied, lipstick will never rub off - even while scuba diving.

5. The ventilation system of any building is a perfect hiding place. No one will ever think of looking for you in there and you can travel to any other part of the building without difficulty.

6. Should you wish to pass yourself off as a German officer, it will not be necessary to speak the language. A German accent will do.

7. The Eiffel Tower can be seen from any window of any building in Paris.

8. A man will show no pain while taking the most ferocious beating but will wince when a woman tries to clean his wounds.

9. When paying for a taxi, never look at your wallet as you take out a note - just grab one at random and hand it over. It will always be the exact fare.

10. If you lose a hand, it will cause the stump of your arm to grow by 15cm.

11. Mothers routinely cook eggs, bacon and waffles for their family every morning, even though the husband and children never have time to eat them.

12. Cars and trucks that crash will almost always burst into flames.

13. A single match will be sufficient to light up a room the size of a football stadium.

14. Medieval peasants had perfect teeth.

15. All single women have a cat.

16. Any person waking from a nightmare will sit bolt upright and pant.

17. One man shooting at 20 men has a better chance of killing them all than 20 men firing at one.

18. Creepy music coming from a graveyard should always be closely investigated.

19. Most people keep a scrapbook of newspaper cuttings - especially if any of their family or friends has died in a strange boating accident.

20. It does not matter if you are heavily outnumbered in a fight involving martial arts - your enemies will wait patiently to attack you one by one by dancing around in a threatening manner until you have knocked out their predecessor.

21. During a very emotional confrontation, instead of facing the person you are speaking to, it is customary to stand behind them and talk to their back.

22. When you turn out the light to go to bed, everything in your room will still be clearly visible, just slightly bluish.

23. Dogs always know who's bad and will naturally bark at them.

24. When they are alone, all foreigners prefer to speak English to each other.

25. Rather than wasting bullets, megalomaniacs prefer to kill their arch-enemies using complicated machinery involving fuses, pulley systems, deadly gases, lasers and man eating sharks that will allow their captives at least 20 minutes to escape.

26. Having a job of any kind will make all fathers forget their son's eighth birthday.

27. All bombs are fitted with electronic timing devices with large red readouts so you know exactly when they're going to go off.

28. It is always possible to park directly outside the building you are visiting.

29. A detective can only solve a case once he has been suspended from duty.

30. If you decide to start dancing in the street, everyone you bump into will know all the steps

More and more people are getting Nvidia now and if you are the only few who still think it's a hardware chip company, watch this. The best 90 seconds one could spend. $NVDA

This is simply epic. 😆

[Maarten Hopman @maartenhopman94]

Ik wil een keer samen met de ouders van Hoyte van Hoytema, Sjoerd Sjoerdsma en Taeke Taekema in een bijna lege ruimte zitten met enkel een flapover, en dan gewoon lekker een half uurtje creatief brainstormen.

[Carel Storm van sGra @carelsvg]

@mennopot Sorry, gedaan. Ben trouwe luisteraar van Branie, ga zo door.

[Carel Storm van sGra @carelsvg]

@mennopot Heel graag!

@SusevanKleef Weer een heerlijke aflevering. Hoe kan het dat Ajax nu zo’n groot probleem heeft op nr. 6 met Maduro in de staf?
