I have scars on my eardrums from an ear infection many years ago, but I no longer remember that I had one. I was either a very very young child or it just knocked me out completely.

Weirdly enough a friends favourite remedy against ear infections is shoving a cotton ball soaked in rubbing alcohol into her ear. I don’t know if it does anything, but for her it seems to have a placebo effect at least.

Imagine if you had to explain Christmas to aliens, simply based on sweaters or other merchandise.

It’s Princess Pushy von Twat.

She also likes to randomly point out that she is the tallest person to marry into the royal family (also excluding Philip), she’s over 6ft tall.

Why do you all call her ‘Princess Henry’ instead of Princess Harry? Did I miss something?

Black cats are a symbol of good luck in the UK. Funny that it’s the opposite in many other countries.

European eggnogg always contains alcohol. I was very concerned when I saw children drinking it in American movies, until I found out that your is different.

Just for comparison: This is the tree in Frankfurt, Germany. It even got stuck during transportation for several hours.

I’m not in the US and sometimes get kicked off of sites simply for that. Even if you don’t ship to where I live, what’s the harm in having me take a look?

In those special cases it wasn’t about soggy tampon strings though. They really thought they couldn’t physically pee.

That’s what I would have thought if they hadn’t been completely stupefied by my ability to pee while having a tampon in me.

German H&Ms are batshit insane. The smallest plus-sizes of H&M and their largest straight sizes overlap. But the straight size 44 (12 US) is larger than the +44 and has more room in the boob area. Whoever runs the German branch of H&M went full on Kafka.

I’ve seen grown women who changed their tampons everytime they had to pee because they didn’t realize that pee and period blood come out of different orifices.

I could swear that everytime I see a picture of her, her face looks somehow different.

Suicide is, sadly, pretty common among K-idols, even when they seem to be at the height of success.

Ugh, yes. I inherited most of my china and silverware from my grandparents. Whenever I have to replace something or buy something they didn’t have, it looks giant in comparison.

It holds 90ml, which according to google are indeed 3 oz.

The people in the Friesland region of Germany still make and use these tiny cups. A good tea shop might have some in stock or could get hold of a set for you.

Thank you. It’s actually iridescent, but that never shows up in pictures.
