  6. It depends heavily on environment, I'd say. In Netherlands, for example, where cycling infrastructure is so well developed with protected separate cycling paths mostly everywhere, having a helmet on will only make a difference on those rare occasions where someone is so damn unlucky and lands head-on after a fall/crash with another bike. So sure, it can save your life if you're involved in such accident, but on the big scale, it hardly makes a significant difference. Another funny and interesting thing (and not limited to cycling only) is risk perception - there's plenty of evidence to suggest that perception of reduced risk when a helmet is worn can prompt bike riders to be more reckless with their own safety (as opposed to those not wearing a helmet). That said, however, while I never even had a though of wearing a helmet while cycling in the Netherlands, I completely abstain from riding a bike in Cambodia and wouldn't ride it on-road in most other countries, depending on the infrastructure and driving culture. I'm not worried about falling down due to my own fault or due to some obstacle on my path (happened before, ended in fucked up knee haha), I do worry about car drivers not being careful and hitting me into a coma though.
  7. I've been tempted to get myself a motorbike for a few years now, but it's probably going to get myself killed, so I'm not too sure.

    I used to think Ramsay is a twat until I saw his cooking show with the kids (Junior Masterchef?). While he unleashes his ginger anger by telling the grown ups to fuck off, he's so extremely patient and super nice to the kids, this changed my mind about him completely. While I'm not a fan of bullyish management style, it makes a lot of sense here; no wonder he's being a cunt to professional trained cooks who choose to showcase their alleged skills on TV and have ambitions for a job which is extremely mentally and physically demanding yet can't get their job properly done, while he encourages children who are only starting out with cooking as a hobby and need help learning.
  11. You made it, Truls, such an incredible achievement that will surely go down in history books

    Fair enough, if you like it medium or well-done, by all means go for it, but why would you do that with a prime cut which has the most flavour and tenderness if cooked at least medium rare? I mean, a 50$ well-done steak from a dry-aged prime cut of a grass-fed cattle will taste pretty much the same as a 10$ well-done mass-produced steak from a cheap shitty cut, so it's a waste of both money and meat and the farmer's and chef's effort. Why do you think Italian chefs go mental if someone puts ketchup on a pizza, haha? The same about Porsche, hundred years of effort by numerous generations have been put into it to create a high-quality end product. It is supposed to be driven, letting it rot is just so disrespectful to the masterpiece and its creators. Craftsmen usually care more about their product than just getting monetary reward for it... As I said before, it's your prerogative to do so, but it's also my right to find it completely pointless and silly.

    It is a waste of potential. Just like buying a Porsche and letting it rot in the garage for decades.
