In Germany, we have a saying for this: Auf alten Pferden lernt man Reiten.

Literal translation is "You learn how to ride on old horses" and the figurative meaning of it ia exactly what you described.

In Dutch it's pretty much the same, but with a bike instead of a horse. "Op een oude fiets moet je het leren." And is also used in that same way figuratively.

We don't have much, but we do have bikes. 2 for every person in fact.

Op een oude fiets moet je het leren

Why does Dutch look like German with speech impediment?

Why does German look like Dutch with weird letters no one else uses?

Hello fellow Cyanide and Happiness fans!

About this community and how I post the comics… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. Of course these days you can read your favorite comics online instead of a newspaper, but I love the nostalgia of reading the daily comics. Anyway, one of my favorite current comics is Cyanide and Happiness and I will be posting the daily release from their website (https://explosm.net) and a an extra or two randoms.

Cyanide & Happiness (C&H) is a webcomic created by Rob DenBleyker, Kris Wilson, Dave McElfatrick and Matt Melvin. The comic has been running since 2005 and is published on the website explosm.net along with animated shorts in the same style. Matt Melvin left C&H in 2014, and several other people have contributed to the comic and to the animated shorts… Read more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanide_%26_Happiness

Hope you enjoy and feel free to contribute to the community with art, media, cool stuff about the authors, tattoos, toys and anything else, as long it’s Cyanide and Happiness related!

Ps. Sub to all my comic strip communities…
