Whilst it is very obviously wrong, it is at least consistent with how we pronounce ‘base’. English is weird.

The first fax machine was invented years before the first telephone.

The first can/tin opener wasn’t invented until about 75 years after canned food started being produced. During that time, people used hammers and chisels to open cans.

It sure tastes like cancer so I’m not surprised by this move.

Hell, Link is some fine trade.

Triffid vibes.

Rate limitation is hitting everything. I’m not even posting or anything - I can’t even browse the site whilst logged in. Clicking on tweets to load replies causes the rate limit error. Site is basically unusable.

I’ve been a few times, although I have a young family so I’m probably looking for different rides than you are. The battling wooden coasters (Joris en de draak) are fun and unusual, and Python is decent. De Vliegende Hollander (Flying Dutchman) is unusual for the water at the end, and is fun. Baron is good, but not much different to other drop coasters.

My personal highlights are Villa Volta, which is a really well done spinning room illusion, and Carnaval Festival, which is a slightly racist and terrible rip-off of ‘It’s a Small World’.

The whole place is good fun though, you can easily fill one or two days there.
