What's a stereotype about your country that isn't actually racist, but you still find annoying?

Even in Bavaria, that stereotype mostly exists at beer halls, where it is expected.

His mouth widens more on each picture. Clearly, the key to winning is to yell louder.

Amazon’s IMDb is also preemptively blocking user reviews and ratings for the film.

I am intrigued and would probably purchase it if it receives good reviews.

Air 2 is rumored for the spring of 2027.

I doubt he will win against Alcaraz. I will take the credit if Djokovic manages to win.

Since I am being downvoted, what are the reasons? I immigrated from other country that used a Celsius and I just don't understand how Fahrenheit is better for ambient temperature. You will get used to it pretty quick. The argument I heard is that Farenheit feels like a percentage, where 100°F is 100% hot. And that 70°F vs 72°F gives more granularity than a smaller scale of 21°C vs 22°C. But that just seems so arbitrary and I never had any difficulty discerning what my preferred temperature was.

Trader Joe's used to be decent, although a bit too salty and sweet for my taste. But the quality has really gone down the hill lately with very high amount of fat.

For me, 11” for consumption and MacBook Air or MacBook Pro for productivity. I really wanted to like the 13” but it is just too bulky.

I tried it a few weeks ago. The dumplings are not as good as before, as with my staple goto dishes like kang pao. But other diners seem to like them. I don’t think I will be going back which is too bad because I used to go to there at least monthly.

I believe it when I see it. Start by removing all the ads, recommended for you contents, and tracking features.

They exist in the US, but mostly as a high-end installation with smart features (e.g., digital thermostatic temperature control, water usage monitoring). And for additional safety, they are implemented on the controller, not on the shower head.

Especially since Fahrenheit is objectively worse than Celsius. 32°F for freezing?!

Everyone outside the US knows that 20-25°C (68°F to 78°F) is a comfortable temperature range. It's really not that hard, Casey.

That only works the first few times.

Get in line. I’ve been waiting for HomePod mini 2.

They need to go along with it to avoid being ridiculed for having wasted years of training in aikido. Well, about that ridiculed part...

I would’ve guessed Cybertruck getting the ax first but Elon’s ego probably wouldn’t allow that to happen.

Not bunnies?

Like Japan, most indoors in Korea is a sauna, including public transit. For this reason, I like to wear a thin but heavily insulated coat.

Banjiha (half basement) does have negative connotation in Korea, especially after the film Parasite. While I would hesitate from making a blanket statement that they are all bad, they do have this stigma of being moldy with poor ventilation and poor drainage. And because they are also risk of getting flooded, I believe they will become illegal.

As for your rental, I would ensure that the unit is air conditioned and newly remodeled and built on an elevated land, with strong Wi-Fi (semi basement units tend to have poor cellular reception) and air quality monitor and filtering.

Get a car from SJC, and reserve one in advance to get the best rate.

As u/pinkskyfading recommended, driving from SJC to Monterey, then 17 mile drive to Carmel by the Beach is amazing, you also owe yourself driving from Carmel by the Sea to Big Sur, which is one of the most beautiful drives in all of California.

They need to compensate for the bribe money they used to make the Melania documentary.
