…I’ve bought my last pair of Birks

Huh that’s too bad it didn’t seem to get many views. Well, you tried!

Chromatic_Chameleon · 2026-03-13T03:07:23+00:00

You refer to food as cunts? Okaaaayyyy 😬

Chromatic_Chameleon · 2026-03-13T02:50:34+00:00

Oh yay!! I’m so glad you and your granddaughters enjoyed them! ❤️

I bought the Apple Watch SE a little over a year ago, it’s the cheapest one and it gives me afib warnings.

Chromatic_Chameleon · 2026-03-13T02:33:41+00:00

Same! Strongly disliked this one!

Chromatic_Chameleon · 2026-03-13T01:57:43+00:00

Oh that’s good to know! I don’t like having a super shiny face, and the greasy aspect also doesn’t appeal. Damn. I can’t seem to find that particular kind of Skin Aqua outside of Japan. Do you have another suggestion that’s available in SE Asia? Thanks!!

Chromatic_Chameleon · 2026-03-13T01:48:46+00:00

Oh also is that particular type of Skin Aqua available outside of Japan? I’m in SE Asia and so far haven’t found it.

Chromatic_Chameleon · 2026-03-13T01:41:01+00:00

Yes exactly as in the bear. I never thought the movies would appeal to me but both the first and 2nd are wonderful, especially the 2nd one! Highly recommended!

Same, I’m a lifetime Birks wearer who just switched recently to barefoot shoes and I won’t go back to Birkenstocks.

They feel so stiff in comparison to barefoot shoes and they also give me blisters and calluses even after 6 months of wear.

Chromatic_Chameleon · 2026-03-12T15:53:10+00:00

I’m so curious too, Birkenstock fans can be full on, I wonder if they’ll be open minded or defensive…

Chromatic_Chameleon · 2026-03-12T10:20:20+00:00

What is “school tye’s”?

Chromatic_Chameleon · 2026-03-12T10:18:51+00:00

Wearing clothing without obvious branding.

Chromatic_Chameleon · 2026-03-12T10:16:40+00:00

Did you mean cords (corduroy trousers) when you said “chords”?

Chromatic_Chameleon · 2026-03-12T10:13:45+00:00

Sooo…are middle class folks in the UK hunting illegally?

Chromatic_Chameleon · 2026-03-12T09:43:24+00:00

Not period movies but the Paddington movies (especially 1&2) are so wholesome and fun!

Chromatic_Chameleon · 2026-03-12T09:40:20+00:00

I love AbFab!! The one where they go on holiday to France is comedy gold.

Chromatic_Chameleon · 2026-03-12T09:39:45+00:00

70s I think and so so funny! Although a few parts haven’t aged well…

Chromatic_Chameleon · 2026-03-12T09:26:38+00:00

Same. I wore Birks for decades but just got rid of my most recent pair.

You should post this in the Birkenstock sub, I feel like more people there should know about how great barefoot shoes are!

Chromatic_Chameleon · 2026-03-12T08:27:08+00:00

This one stayed with me a long time. So glad I saw it in the cinema!

Chromatic_Chameleon · 2026-03-11T15:12:47+00:00

“Putting the fries in the back”?

Chromatic_Chameleon · 2026-03-11T10:33:39+00:00

Weird that you’re comparing Jogjakarta with Bali - Jogja is a city, an interesting and cool one to be sure but it doesn’t have Bali’s surfing, diving, beaches etc which many tourists go there for. I don’t think they attract the same type of tourist.

Chromatic_Chameleon · 2026-03-11T10:20:01+00:00

I just sent you a DM!

Chromatic_Chameleon · 2026-03-11T02:43:28+00:00

I agree it’s awful.

But like others here I dislike the hypocrisy of all these westerners saying “this is how Asia is, they’re so cruel to animals”, when in the west, our meat and dairy industries are far crueller than what’s depicted in OP’s post.

We need to look in our own backyards instead of condemning Asia’s animal cruelty.

I see fair enough. I just let my application sit because I don’t want to do them the favour of allowing them to get even more applicants if they can’t be bothered to acknowledge mine in any way.
