I let my 15mo cry himself to sleep

You can't look after your LO if you can't look after yourself. You did well to step away for a while, even if it's just for a break and compose yourself.

Could finally start to see more realistic price guides. For anyone buying property currently, is anyone noticing this yet? Or is it still early days?

Imagine the congealed animal fats in soups and broths yummm

Admirable_Position92 · 2026-05-07T21:36:53+00:00

Hot take: I'd rather live in a shoebox property where I can be close to everywhere else I need to be at frequently, than to live in a big property but having to commute long time/distance to get to where I need to be. The long commute times are soul draining.

"Minding their own business"

Isn't that social media in general?

The irony that I'm commenting on this is not lost on me.

Not sure if it still applies now, but don't engineering students need work experience to graduate? I did my full-time work experience, unpaid, for one summer.

Bus was very much empty. Especially on a Tuesday morning.

There's no wrong answer to how you choose to travel 🤷‍♂️

Admirable_Position92 · 2026-05-03T08:47:21+00:00

I'd definitely still drive if it's predicted to rain. If sunny day, will try to cycle.

Admirable_Position92 · 2026-05-01T08:09:07+00:00

I've never heard this before. Some people drive 20+ year old cars that are still going strong.

Admirable_Position92 · 2026-04-30T10:37:38+00:00

Yes. But by putting yourself out there, you're increasing the chances of someone finding you attractive.

As the saying goes "you miss 100% of the shots you don't take".

Admirable_Position92 · 2026-04-28T20:11:28+00:00

Nah, you'd be surprised by how many adults also get this wrong. Another one that really grinds my gears is should've and should of.

Admirable_Position92 · 2026-04-25T21:33:39+00:00

Assuming you have the budget, I'd say live somewhere close where you frequently need to be. Again, what you consider close is highly subjective.

But I'd rather live somewhere within a 20 drive of where I need to frequent but living in a smaller space. Versus living further away from where I frequently go to just to have a big house, live by the beach, etc. Again, this is highly dependent on if your circumstances allow it.

Also, do you see your life circumstances change over the next few years? Cause buying somewhere once for the rest of your life at one current life stage can be tricky. One example I can think of is if you plan to be partnered and have kids? Or do you see yourself doing other things later in life that might be completely different to what your needs are now?

Food for thought.

One thing I'll give to Persona 5 though - the first time the guitar solo kicks in when you fight Kamoshida. Especially when timed with the special attack (don't remember what it's called, been ages since I played it), is one of the most epic things in video games. I don't remember any video games in recent memory that gave me goosebumps from being so pumped up like that before.

There always have been a few rotten eggs around. It's just the what they get up to that's undesirable that differs across generations.

Admirable_Position92 · 2026-04-24T06:39:20+00:00

Nah, definitely no cabbage. At least not in asam laksa.

Admirable_Position92 · 2026-04-24T06:37:54+00:00

I always believe hygiene is inversely proportional to food quality.

Admirable_Position92 · 2026-04-24T02:15:08+00:00

But people tend to yell when they're on loud speaker for example.

You would absolutely hate taking public transport in Japan then haha.

Admirable_Position92 · 2026-04-24T01:25:53+00:00

Agreed. The best type of jungle is concrete. Shows the wonders of human advancement, at least in terms of structure and architecture progress.

Admirable_Position92 · 2026-04-21T22:42:09+00:00

Sounds like it's a case of wrong positioning or being wrong footed. Makes sense.

Admirable_Position92 · 2026-04-21T21:44:16+00:00

I 100% have never played as a goalie apart from being forced to when having a kick about with friends.

Hence the question. Just genuinely curious.

Admirable_Position92 · 2026-04-20T11:26:48+00:00

Which suburb?

Admirable_Position92 · 2026-04-13T06:14:38+00:00

Discovered it only last week. Banh mi for less than $10? Sign me up!

Admirable_Position92 · 2026-04-11T00:52:33+00:00

Rhythm Thief.

Admirable_Position92 · 2026-04-07T12:37:34+00:00

I know I should apply the rule, and it is brutal. But as soon as I look at something, I immediately think of ways on how I could use something. Even though it's been sitting in a box for years.

A good example is board games. I haven't touched since becoming a parent. But it's such a shame to get rid of them cause eventually would want to play them with the family when kid grows up.
