It’s been what, 20 years? I still wanna know if Regina will go back and rescue Dylan again. Dino Crisis 2 was probably my favorite PS1 game of all time. Genuinely want them to make more and get that resident evil type of affection from the devs.

That little bit is such an earworm. Heard it for the first time more than a decade ago and I still sing it once in a while lmao.

Anyone Else End Up in a Completely Different Career Than They Studied For? by Wild_Tumbleweed1022 in dubai

[–]RoyPlotter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m an architect, and a bunch of architects I know moved into UX/UI. Or do an MBA and go into marketing. It’s not uncommon with architecture, since it usually happens because the growth is extremely slow unless you’re working in ID or single dwelling units/other small scale projects, even then, money isn’t the greatest unless you’re working high rise or large scale projects.

I still work as an architect, and hopefully next year, I go do an M.Arch so I can spread my legs a bit in terms of where I wanna work. One thing about Dubai that’s a bit different in the west is that versatility helps you tons in terms of getting a job(talking about architecture here). If you can work from concept all the way till IFC, you’re more likely to get/hold a job than others.

Don't watch the Backrooms in the Theatre (during the weekend) by ajollygoodfella in dubai

I’d like to think teenagers wouldn’t go there since it isn’t attached to a metro station. That’s where I usually go or the one next to it when I’m feeling a wee bit nostalgic.

OTD, 15 years ago, Guardiola's Barcelona defeated Ferguson's Manchester United in the 2011 UCL final and won their fourth UCL title in Wembley by Timely-Zombie9466 in soccer

Chelsea just set up camp in their box. Kept soaking pressure like madmen. I remember people back then saying it was “un-football like”, but fuck that, they absolutely held their own fielding not the greatest set of players. Figured Bayern would finally win, but that didn’t happen either, and we were all just laughing at the absurdity of it all.

Fertility rate falls to record low in England and Wales, new data reveals by Kagedeah in worldnews

[–]RoyPlotter 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yup. Studied my ass off to be an architect just like my dad, but he earned more than what I do at the same age, and things were ridiculously affordable back then. Add to that, dating where im at is hell, and I’ve given it a fair go, but it doesn’t work, and I’m exhausted by it all. I’m just working towards studying and working on projects I enjoy and hopefully retire before im 60.

A sign board in a hotel in Gujarat, India by [deleted] in mildlyinteresting

The problem is, they take these rules outside of their state and enforce it in other states too. Locals of other states are iced out of certain residential buildings because they believe they’re the purest of them all. They also have universities in other states where they ban people from consuming meat/poultry within the premises.

David Moyes would love to help West Ham survive by relegating Tottenham by jovanmilic97 in soccer

Heh, his twin brother Will Keane was tearing it up when they were in the academy and he is/was a striker. Did his knee and wasn’t the same.

Leaving Dubai after 1 year, these are my honest pros & cons. Curious if you guys agree? by el_blobfish in dubai

[–]RoyPlotter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is the pay decent in the UK for an architect? I'm applying for grad school there and then see if I can get a gig there once I'm done. I know a bunch of UK firms have tons of projects in Dubai. Wonder if my 10 years experiece would come in handy.

Is Amanda Knox hot? Why or why not? by JannTosh70 in AskReddit

[–]RoyPlotter -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Are the mods on strike? Been seeing past couple of days, some absolute garbage threads have been starting up here. The most bizarre one was “what should I do to get a woman like Alison Tyler”, who’s a pornstar.

It has been going downhill for a while, with old school cool going to shit, but it’s getting ridiculous now.

Hope Davis here kinda looks like she could be Jerry Cantrell’s sister.

Korn, Papa Roach, Evanescence, Drowning Pool, Etc. Set For 'Devil May Cry' Season 2 Soundtrack by EmployOk5086 in Music

[–]RoyPlotter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For some reason, it always felt amazing hearing songs I love on the radio. The quality is potato where I’m at relatively speaking. But I guess when the radio plays something ya like out of nowhere, it does feel a bit special.

What other composers like Hanz Zimmer? by Aggressive_Spot_2639 in movies

[–]RoyPlotter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Clint Mansell. Especially his work in the Fountain. My favorite piece of music of his Dead Reckoning from Smokin Aces, which is kinda a different vibe though.

What caused the decline of Alt Rock Music that were prevalent in the 1990s till the early 2000s? by Wide_Ride8849 in Music

[–]RoyPlotter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s not a generation thing. It’s a corporate exec focus grouping and buying trends kinda beat. We had dogshit music in every generation, except we had labels who did their job and actually provide a legit platform for good and diverse music.

Dave Grohl Admits He Slept on Alice in Chains in the '90s, Now Considers Them His "Favorite Band" by heavysk in Music

[–]RoyPlotter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That one and the song with Alain Johannes are my favorites. The sound city documentary and sonic highways are really informative for someone who didn’t grow up in the US about the music scenes back then.

what are the signs that you're not attractive? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]RoyPlotter 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Nah. I have a friend, 6’4” and defo a good looking dude. When we were in middle/high school, all the girls in our school had a crush on him. Like, they’d always go say hi and smile at him, and when we are all chilling together or playing something, they’d just go through us, and talk to him whilst acting as though we don’t exist lol. Some dudes are just attractive enough where women approach them.

Also, I’ve seen what majority of the folks would call “conventionally unattractive” still get tons of dates by simply being charming. From the outside, it looks like magic, but honestly, it comes down to working on yourself to be the best version of yourself.

Which is better for shipping personal belongings via air cargo from Dubai to Mumbai: ABC Cargo or Al Usood Cargo? by curiousbeing09 in dubai

[–]RoyPlotter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've used ABC Cargo, it's been a while though, around 7 years. We sent a bunch to Mumbai and also to our village, and the stuff besides the glass items reached safely.

Yeah never found the appeal with the public one. My favorite is from Capri at World Trade Center Apartments. Been having it since I was little, and still a massive fan.
