100 hours learning Dutch in duolingo and I still had to go look this up. /smh

Don't let it go, but let it go

Is that about right?

No, it roughly translates to

Not because i have to, but because I can

I think my favorite one my Dutch buddy told me about was "Helaas pindakaas." If not that, I also love the insult "droplul."
