For me it was the combination of burn-out from trying to get “good” at MTG while best results being top eight in GPQs, PTQs, and perhaps day two in GPs, and the focus on EDH. Tried dipping my toe in last year and just being overwhelmed by the insane amount of product. Even within the same set. For me part of the fun was “solving” the limited formats for each set. But now draft is its own boosters?
Last time I was active was 10 years ago just as EDH was taking off. Buying the expensive early cards necessitated quite a lot of knowledge and a decent jewelers loupe. I can just imagine how hard it is today with the counterfeiters getting better.
This means that your agriculture is imported? ironically one of the few areas most nation protect with toll barriers.
I can’t get my head around that industry. In my area there are several vegetable farms, most are sold long before harvesting. So one year they had a amazing cauliflower year. Yields above expected. But they could not sell the excess as there was no buyers. So I could drive past looking at happy elks gorging themselves on delicious cauliflower before they plowed it into the field. And then I went to the local grocery store and bought plastic wrapped cauliflower from Spain…
Tbh. I have no feelings at all for the issue. You on the other hand seem to have plenty.
I don’t know about the UK, but I talk to my Swiss “colleagues” in several arenas (including EFTA) whereas I haven’t seen anyone from the UK since Brexit. To me from my low perch Switzerland seem much more integrated than the UK. The again Iceland is not included in the infographic, and they are an EEA member
Norway and Switzerland are EEA countries. Part of the inner market, not part of the customs union, no euro and no representation in the commission or parliament. Adopts most legislation.
There are shit ton of low level participation from Norway and Switzerland in AdCo’s, Group of Experts, CEN and other sub groups and working groups. So makes perfect sense to include them.
Omg. Ofcourse! Total brainfart from me. Thanks for the heads up.
I also enjoy her acting, and her humor. Her Halloween picture a few years back dressed as Elsa (by her daughter) was gold.

Edit: Dont know how I could do that mistake
My only issue with that much ink at an early age is how you change as a person during the years from 18-28. How I was at 20 was pretty different from me at 28 and very different from me 38.
My take pretty much anything is if I don’t have to do anything, then do whatever the fuck you want as long as there is content and not harmful to other people.
Had five pairs of HOKA Clifton or Bondi (one of the few brands that have wide and quarter sizes) that usually lasts a year. My HOKA Kaha lasted two hand a half which is too short for that kind of shoe. Last pair of Clifton bought this summer lasted two months.
I suggest you look at Altra if you need wide toe box.
Ok ok ok. Now that the comment section has been explained “insta thot”, does anyone have source!?
The porn section joke is even more valid.

Hah… Adult supervision = benign neglect.
And see what I found!
I had a Turkish exchange student at my uni in Norway, and when he saw a bag of “Turkish Pepper” he was like WTF is this?
End of story he did not appreciate the delicious treats named for his people.
We talk about the vodka belt and potato Europe, but what should we name Nordic/north German and Dutch areas that like salty licorice?
A scene that would have gone viral was when were 12 four of us pooled our money and bought a display box of the rolls.
What commenced was an conveyer belt style production of the things. Being total idiots we had no real idea what we were doing so we taped together several cylinders and while one packed the rest folded. The “packer” used that back end of a fork to get the stuff real tight in the cylinder and since he was sitting with it between his legs in the crotch area he started simulating masturbation with the fork as an attempt to amuse. (Did I mention we were 12 AND idiots?)
What happens was that the friction of cource ignites the damn thing. Luckily it was early in the production so he did not set of much. What happened was teared jeans, some spectacular brucing and a visit to the emergency room. No permanent damage.
The thing is I still work with explosives in a professional capacity and I found that these things are still being sold… P1 pyrotechnic articles, “low hazard” so its still not to late to go viral…
To all the “hammer people”. What you do is you fold it lengthwise down the middle (opening each “dot”) and then carefully pack several rolls into a cylinder. Let say the plastic cylinder these things came in. Then use electrical tape and tape it good and tight. Preferably several cylinders. Remember to put in a fuse. A rubber band clipped open will work in lieu of a proper fuse.
These things blows like flash bangers

At one point I will buy a used El Camino (the.most.useless.pickup), tinker with it, hopefully with my son (now 3 yo) put in a 400hp Chevrolet LS engine and never drive it unless it’s sunny.
For my daily use I seldom travel over 15 km. and currently use a petrol mini One and have Mazda6 estate for family travel (the amount of bulky stash traveling with a small child necessitates is mind-numbing)
An EV estate/ would cover both uses, so I totally agree with you
