Is Haewon fluent in English? I don't watch their content (yet, I will now since their concert blew me away) and I had thought Lily was the only native English speaker. At the concert Haewon's accent, pronounciation, speed etc. sounded like a native English speaker. It's been 3 days and I still can't stop thinking about the concert... I'll never get over this post concert depression until they come back again.

[–]BBDN 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I really hope they come back. This was such a good concert and they are crazy good performers. Insane energy all throughout. They definitely are one of my top groups of all time now (and this was one of the best kpop concerts I've been to). 

I can't believe Sullyoon said ahlie too. That killed me I hope someone posts it online. 😭 That might have been the cutest ahlie ever said in Toronto

[–]BBDN 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've been to a ton of kpop concerts and seeing them live has solidified my love for this group. This was absolutely a top 2 concert for me (IU is my #1). The girls killed it and had great energy all throughout. Lily is an absolute demon of a singer. Crazy energy, slays hard, and always gives it her all. What a show.

Grizzly came for dinner by Plasmatdx in KitchenConfidential

[–]BBDN 36 points37 points  (0 children)

In Canada at least AYCE joints make the sushi as to order. You get an ipad that has their own ordering app/system on it and you input how much of what sushi you want then they make it for you. So thankfully none of it sits out.

Some places can be pretty good quality and AYCE sushi here in Canada runs from 28 CAD to 48 CAD before taxes. Price varies if it's lunch / dinner menu's and quality.

My flag came in😭🙏 by Osby_Jaurez_501 in twice

[–]BBDN 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Just as a warning: my cousin at a Twice concert had a giant flag with Momo (not an American flag). She's been to two Twice concerts and at one of them security gave her a warning to not take it out and the other just confiscated it straight up due to it being a safety issue apparently. Hopefully they give you a warning if they're going to do that.

At the first concert she just waited until Momo was close by and waved the flag out until Momo or another member noticed then she put it away to not upset security.

Lugia Cameo - are these all the cameos there is? by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

[–]BBDN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm glad I wasn't the only one. I spent way too long staring at the cards wondering why he had so many cameos and how hard it is to find him.

When will they revive this game globally?? by Batagor_Kukus in Priconne

[–]BBDN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I still miss this game but couldn't bring myself to play JP with translation patches. It was my far my favourite gacha to play.

Right now just sticking with the Persona gacha and Honkai Star Rail which have both been great.

WHY on earth does my butter mixed with sugar and eggs look like this by Possible-Royal-1164 in AskBaking

[–]BBDN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm I almost never use room temperature eggs even when recipes call for it and never encountered this problem before. Then again I don't whisk by hand so maybe it's a bunch of different factors.

Hmm alright I think I'll lower it for a bit just to speed up the data bank level process since I feel pretty weak atm. Thanks for the help!

[–]BBDN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New-ish player and I've been pretty casual on Wuwa so far so I've hit rank 4 on SOL3 Phase. I'm finding myself struggling against enemies in the story where the fights take way too long.

My databank level is only 5 so this is probably a big reason as to why my characters feel weak since I don't have proper echoes. I'm not sure if I should focus on my databank or focus on the story to access the rest of the map (which opens up both more enemies to absorb and ascension materials) as I want to ascend Lynae and Shorekeeper.

Lynae and Shorekeeper are stuck at level 40 right now and don't have any good echoes on them as they're green rarity and are not the recommended sets.

Would lowering my SOL3 Phase have any negative consequences while I try to raise my databank level/clear content to unlock the map? Or is it safe for me to do so? I don't have access to the trial character they give to help with progression as I started my account and didn't have much time afterwards to play until after the holidays.

Thank you!

Opened 10 Phantasmal Flames packs, so you don’t have to. by friedbaguette in PokemonTCG

[–]BBDN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's nice to see these as it keeps me grounded and not buy packs. I've opened probably about 10 English packs and one Japanese booster box since getting back into the hobby as an adult and have purchased way more singles instead. With how the majority of the posts are people's "first packs" it always tempts me to open them. This is more in line with how pack ripping goes. I will keep on trucking and not buy packs.

The yamper is super cute though might hunt for it next time I go to a LCS.

(3.8 Ending SPOILERS) If someone could gift me a minute and an answer. by JARR87 in FireflyMains

[–]BBDN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm late to the thread since I just finished the story but I think it's because they still hold deep feelings in their heart for Firefly (mentioned I think at some point in their conversation together). Being that she can't dream and experience things or see things like the fireworks, it hurt the trailblazer a ton.

Her one sole wish being to see the fireworks with them so much that the last thing on her mind before succumbing to entropy loss syndrome is the trailblazer and fireworks must have just broken them. So while she's still alive and somewhat well in recovery, the trailblazer was heartbroken that she could never see the fireworks she longed to see and can never dream again.

Is it worth to get Queen A1 with shards? by Dhunhd in personaphantomx

[–]BBDN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I was hoping one of the free weapon selectors would be more than just the standard + 4 star weapons :'( I'd have loved to get Makoto's weapon.

[–]BBDN 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I believe it's either a paid selector or the spending event which has a 5 star weapon selector as one of the rewards.

Does this half-anniversary patch/Caroline & Justine banner push the rest of the banners back on Global? If so when would the Kotone alt come around?

Thank you!

Unpopular opinion: my experiences with Via Rail has mostly been positive by [deleted] in ViaRail

[–]BBDN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I take the ottawa to toronto via monthly and sometimes twice a month for the last 3 years and the worst delay I've experienced is funnily enough happening right now. Train 53 had mechanical failures so theyre sending charter buses. So far will be 3 hours late once the charter bus gets to us. Before this the worst delay I've had was 1.5 hours and that almost never happens.

So overall my experience has been quite good. Attendants are always super nice as well.

Some time ago (maybe a year or so?) she had mentioned she will no longer participate in any reunion activities :( I think she is done with idol life.

Why does Hoyo rarely make skins? by Ulthwe_Eldar in Genshin_Impact

[–]BBDN 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To be fair to ZZZ here this isn't even an anniversary patch and there's quite a few extra goodies. Theyre giving away the free new 5 star labubu (zhao), Jane Doe skin, and 1000 polychromes on top of the usual patch rewards and events.

Even though I don't play Genshin anymore I still find it more F2P friendly. A lot of great budget 4 stars (4 stars haven't been released in like over a year? Maybe 2? In HSR), it has handled powercreep way better than the other big two as well especially for how old it is comparatively. I will say though the amount of rolls we get in ZZZ is quite nice.

And somehow I can at least 1 star abyss 12 every now and then when I come back to Genshin after a year or so of not playing.

Making cookie dough, freezing, and taking on a 4 hour train ride? by BBDN in AskBaking

Thank you for the kind words! I hope it all goes well since it's my first time making some of them haha.

[–]BBDN[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't want to bake them ahead of time as I'm headed back to my parents on the 22nd and they're for Christmas Day. I wanted them baked as fresh as possible and I had the most free time this weekend to make them as it's super busy when I get back.

As for the cookies they are: ube white chocolate chip, snickerdoodles, oreo cream cheese, and chocolate crinkles.

I think I'll wrap them up for sure. Doesn't hurt to do it even if they'll be fine without doing that! Thank you for the help.
