The red part is the Municipality of Copenhagen and the white/gray part is the Municipilaty of Frederiksberg But I thought they just combine it to Hovdstaden (cmiiw)? So today there's no more "Frederiksberg Municipality" and "Copenhagen Municipality"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hovedstaden is also the name of 1 of our 5 five regions, and Region Hovedstaden is MUCH bigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 69-year-old entrepreneur in the Netherlands wants to legally change his age to 49 so he can go back to work and meet more women on Tinder, according to his lawsuit. The self-proclaimed positivity guru argued that he feels 20 years younger, and compared the age difference to being transgender, despite the concepts being completely different. "You can change your name. You can change your gender. Why not your age? Nowhere are you so discriminated against as with your age," he told De Telegraaf. Ratelband argued that he is a "young god" and said changing his age would allow him to "live differently," saying he would get more matches on Tinder if he could use a younger age. https://www.thisisinsider.com/dutch-man-emile-ratelband-wants-to-legally-change-his-age-to-49-2018-11 Wise lesson: never in your life take Emile Ratelband seriously (even if he is serious) Wumo 1 If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

Nah, people/youth in this part of the country isn't really known for smoking a lot of weed.

Smoking tobacco kills thousands and thousands of people a year here, alcohol kills thousands and thousands of people a year, XTC kills...7-8 people a year (in the Netherlands), yet you can get your cigarettes and alcohol in basically every supermarket, but XTC - the stuff of which the main effect is basically that you become one big happy hugging machine - is illegal. XTC is actually ranked very low in terms of danger, way under tobacco, alcohol, a ton of different kind of drugs and even weed Edited November 8, 2018 by heywoodu Wumo 1 If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!
