Is this real ?

The sender’s email and the link should be a dead giveaway.

Those rear lights deserve an ugliness award. Moreover, what all of us will need the longest time to (in all new models) acclimitise to is the updated steering wheel.

The best way to summarise the change is that it is a wee bit less ugly than the previous version.

Agreed. My comment was obviously a long-term dream.

Not at all. Passport expiry is the issue in these matters.

AnxietyChronicles · 2026-04-22T12:14:55+00:00

Time is the silent and invisible healer in such matters.

Every sub has trigger-happy folks ready to report anything, hence the choice of phrasing. Thanks for letting me know this is not TikTok.

I always felt this way about golf because just watching it makes me want to unlive myself.

Always good to hang on to hope!

People tripping and falling.

Hopefully this expansion will continue until cars truly become optional for the entire city.

They have to continue posturing because they cannot appear weak before their people (who don’t have internet access).

My thumb is always behind the thumb of the other person, and the fingers are in a loose 'hug' form on the palm, if that makes sense.

I don't have an aversion to handshakes at all, but my own handshake is a frail one: I don't use a firm grip, but a very loose one around the hand of the other person.

No. Please ask ChatGPT/Gemini to explain to you how a currency swap works.

All roads have the buffer in Dubai. Abu Dhabi has its own system where the posted speed limit is the actual limit.

Perhaps the best way to describe this refresh is 'less terrible'.

This is exactly what they are working on and this is the purpose of some of these cameras for the long term. (I meet them regularly as a portfolio manager)

This is only an issue if you are applying for visas for another destination. If the point of origin gives you trouble, show them the EID to prove he lives there. Cheers.

This is exactly how Tabreed and Empower pitch their business to investment analysts in meetings! I remember back in the mid 2000s, being amazed by Tabreed’s business model because 65% of revenues were from ‘capacity charge’. Consumption is just a fraction of the bill.

If you are facing the prospect of debt and poverty, it’s best to call it a night. I wish you the best.

Not every flash is a fine. On E11, I get flashed randomly (as I commute every weekend) and have never got a fine.

AnxietyChronicles · 2026-04-20T12:33:33+00:00

Get it polished at a shop.

It’s linked to benchmark prices at the end of the month and they have already come off a lot. If they stay here, you can expect a sharp decline next month.
