what a shithole. Literally the worst /out/ country someone can live in north Europe. At least they have whores and pot otherwise they would kill themselves

My cousins live in the southern Nederlands, didn't even get below freezing near Christmas.

Really man?

I think id just lay down and swim

>>670049
They're so smug about their shitty 40 pound bikes I'm ashamed to say I laughed when the guy crashed. I felt bad for the dogs and the sheep but what the fuck were the sheep doing downtown in the first place?

>>670072
>I felt bad for the dogs

Fuck the dogs. Pugs a shit.

Hey anon, anon - what's the difference between a pug and piece of shit?

The piece of shit only falls on the ice once.

How do you avoid falling on your arse? Yaktrax? I've never seen snow.

You need an internal physiological gyroscope/gimbal and highly adept pussyfoot skills. If you aren't a naturally snowfaring people it takes a long time to develop the skill. I find that my brain-penis connection is very strong and my swaying dick acts as a kinetoscope and gimbal so I can adjust my momentum and shift my weight to keep from sliding out of control or falling on my ass. Even with a precise gimbal mechanism like that you need mad pussyfoot skills as well, or it all goes to waste and you'll hit the ground like a retarted pug.

>>670049
>frozen rain

I hate that shit. Everything is like covered in clear ultra thin ice. You can't get traction on ANYTHING.

>>670280
It isn't like that at all. Take a frozen lake for instance. You think, "shit I can walk on ice that's easy" and you'd be correct. Walking on lake ice, puddle ice, etc is easy. Why? Because it is perfectly flat.

Then you try to walk on slanted ice, like a frozen street. No matter what you do, you slide downhill. You have to get traction with something like metal cleats, but they are shit for ultra thin ice like that and you end up skating on metal hard surfaces with them. So, it is better to have skates.

>>670274
>Yaktrax

Yes, that's the best thing, it still fucking sux though, unless you carry a bag of sand, cinder, and salt around with you to toss everywhere you place your feet. Thankfully, that type of ice is rather uncommon.

>>670050
Dallas, Texas when it rains is dangerous as fuck. People literally can not drive. They do everything the exact same way they drive when it is dry. They stop at the last second and slide all over the place.

A mora is like $12-$15

>>670303
well the mora thread is shilling hundred dollar mooras, but even at $12 shit adds-up

>>670305
That's because of the speculation of how much the full tang mora will cost.

I will do without OJ in the morning, life is about choices, mang!

Hell, I gave up drinking during the week last oct. That got me covered for the Microspikes right there!

If you are gonna 4 season hiking, it costs more.

>>670321
Absolutely anon. Sometimes it's for the best.

>>670367
Yup.

>>670334
1 packet of yeast, a bag of sugar, and some water will make 5 gallons of alcohol upwards of 15%ABV.

>>670260
kek'd

>>670379
Bakers yeast die/go dormant at around 10-14% usually, you need special yeast if you wan't to go higher. Still it's not a bad deal, cheaper than basically any bottom of the shelf rotgut or bumwine.

>>670260
This

>>670379
Get a beer kit tho. So that you're not just drinking yeast water. 5 gallon kits are as low as $25-30, and are fun to make and difficult to screw up.

Or just pour a bunch yeast into apple juice with no preservatives.

Wow, thanks man! You really shouldn't have. I'll be sure to post it when it comes in!

Wooooowoowoowoo I'm gonna have a mora!

>>670640
What are you, 12?

> literally a cheap ass knife

How poorfag are you? Better ask your mom if you can ply with it.

>>670659
I'm not twelve, no. I know it's cheap. I never really thought to get one, but anon was nice and got one for me. Gear's expensive and a getting murrah never got too high on my priority list. I'm pretty happy to have it anon. I have a SAK I use for general purpose shit, and a serrated kershaw for killing and heavy duty cutting, and now I'll be able to use my mora for my "clean knife" used for food prep and eating. I'm pretty happy and it was a nice gesture.

>>670662
> serrated Kershaw for killing

Careful sc/out/s. We've got a live one here!

He's not 12, mind you!

Oh, my lungs!

Congrats, you got a "murrah"...

the secret to walking on ice is you gotta keep your upper thighs kinda stiff and take small steps. keep your back straightish and center of gravity low.
being from northern wisconsin also helps.

When you grow up skiing on shit tier east coast hills you learn ice balance at young age
