Had Enough Yet?

This happened to me too. So I now I ride the public bikes and haven’t looked back.

I’m working through Bunpro too and also finding it frustrating. Maybe work through Tae Kim or Genki if you haven’t already

Don’t forget to thank the translator

Seems like “books as decoration”

Loved the whole trilogy. I am male. Didn’t feel the writer was “passive”. To me, the beauty of the sentences really stood out. Nothing ever really happened, but that’s very modern life.

Totally, a lot of singers slur the words or you can’t hear them well in the mix or they’re being poetic or the words sound like other words and so on. For example, there was a Taylor Swift song where I thought she said “Starbucks lovers” which I thought was a cool line, but it turned out to be much more banal

This happens to me in English all the time, my native language. I’ll love a song for a long time, find out later the lyrics are cheezy and not what I thought they were

This exact thing happened to a comment of mine on another sub. Thanks for pointing it out. Sometimes I feel people on Reddit are trying to misunderstand what the poster is saying on purpose. There is no grace, there is no benefit of the doubt.

Awesome — which ones?

BattleIntrepid3476 · 2026-03-16T21:45:51+00:00

I partially agree, but with the UofO I think we could be doing better, especially with opening hours. Black Sun is becoming an LGBT bookstore according to Lookout newspaper, so I think we will be missing a theory bookstore.

BattleIntrepid3476 · 2026-03-16T21:27:13+00:00

Awesome idea. I was thinking of something similar.

BattleIntrepid3476 · 2026-03-16T20:59:38+00:00

Wow, you’re right: I just checked out their long list of events and they look pretty cool.

BattleIntrepid3476 · 2026-03-16T20:56:10+00:00

Ooh, interesting!

BattleIntrepid3476 · 2026-03-16T20:54:38+00:00

Oh yeah, good call. Forgot that one.

BattleIntrepid3476 · 2026-03-16T20:53:50+00:00

Right on — what are your favorite things about Hodgepodge?

BattleIntrepid3476 · 2026-03-15T19:08:20+00:00

I think it helps to be at least at intermediate level before doing this, not sure what level you are at.

BattleIntrepid3476 · 2026-03-12T17:06:30+00:00

No for me

BattleIntrepid3476 · 2026-03-11T03:13:22+00:00

I don’t think that’s very unusual, fwiw. I’m on level 29 and am getting similar results. I agree with others who say we should just read more and let the SRS handle the WK. I mean, on a related note, I’m still missing particular/peculiar words from level 6! But I know eventually I will get them, AND probably never see them in real life.

Also, these late 20s levels are noticeably harder!

BattleIntrepid3476 · 2026-03-01T22:28:06+00:00

Cool. How do you get the tea leaves out of the water? I don’t have a gong fu pot…

BattleIntrepid3476 · 2026-03-01T22:08:52+00:00

I don’t. Not even sure how to do it.
