    Wait wait wait… are you saying you don’t have any commemorative coins in the USA?! Holy shit I never realised! We have special coins all the time in Europe. My kids absolutely love when they find a special 2€ coin with some cool engraving on it.
    How sad! You could have so many, too! By default each country in the Euro zone has its own heads, while tails are always the same. Easy peasy!










  • Do you realise how fucking regulated alcohol making and indeed, any sort of food or beverage making is in Europe? This sort of shit only happens in countries where you have a deadly mixture of ignorance, poverty and corruption.

    Farmers in rural France know you throw away the first part of the moonshine because it’s the part that makes you go blind, for example. And it’s precisely to prevent any sort of accidental mishaps they ended up forbidding the making of it anyway (it used to be allowed for cattle farmers, iirc). Although I believe they rolled back that one, what with the explosion of microbreweriea and such. Also if it’s legal can tax it.
