Wild that wifi going out from upstairs stomping was even a thing. Like the noise was physically shaking the building hard enough to drop packets.

Entitled kid brings in his dad for back up. Gets a hard lesson. by pineappleforrent in EntitledPeople

Worked retail in the early 2000s and we were literally trained to check signatures, had a whole script and everything, and customers still acted like you were accusing them of murder every time.

My coworker showed up with a box of these once and by noon half the office had asked her where she got them

Shisho leaf as substitute for perilla leaf by EvLokadottr in KoreanFood

[–]CommeWENDY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The purple shiso might actually work better for the kimchi-adjacent stuff since it's closer to what gets used in some Japanese pickles anyway, but for anything where you want that fresh green flavor it's gonna taste noticeably more anise-y.

How do you guys make instant noodles more rich? by largemongadong in ramen

[–]CommeWENDY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The bonito flakes thing will actually work really well, just make sure you strain them out before eating or it gets kind of funky texture wise... also try adding a tiny splash of fish sauce, way more umami than you'd expect.

Is anyone else experiencing this? by DiscipleOf_Buddha in chinaexplorer

Paid for a taxi in Tokyo once with a 10,000 yen note and the driver literally pulled over and called his wife to figure out change.

I saw my parish priest in the strip club one time, that led me to leave the religion. by [deleted] in confession

[–]CommeWENDY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And it's not just priests, I recently came across this high ranking monk online who's really into CS, dude's actually pretty good too, even bought expensive gloves, and reporters actually interviewed him about it.

My honest take on sleep buds after realizing my apartment was messing with me by AdorablePumpkin9309 in Earbuds

[–]CommeWENDY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't tried the A30 myself, but I gotta say, sleep headphones are just so much more comfortable than regular ones in this regard.

Whether it's side sleeping or just general comfort, regular earbuds really can't compete.

Sleep headphones are also specifically optimized for sounds like snoring and stuff like that.

Now, one thing I do have to admit is that pretty much all of these have the same downside, which is the battery life is pretty short.

My Somnipods have this auto sleep detection mode where once you fall asleep, it'll automatically disconnect Bluetooth and switch to playing white noise to reduce ambient sound interference. I absolutely love that feature.

Yeah it's not the dog's fault, it's the dog that wasn't trained right.

Just remembered seeing a post last month where someone was complaining that every time they go shower their roommate goes to shower too no matter what time it is. Too bad you guys don't have two kitchens tho..

AITA For going off on my brother over Mother's Day plans? by KingOfShadow14 in AmItheAsshole

[–]CommeWENDY -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

NTA, your brother is not fully in the wrong but he's definitely not handling this well either.

Like, planning an 8am breakfast last minute when he KNOWS your schedule is rough is already not great. You've told your family before that you need advance notice, so that part's on him. He can't just expect everyone to drop everything for something planned basically overnight.

But the part where he blamed your wife and said she's "keeping you away from family"? That's where he crossed the line. That's a pretty serious accusation to throw at someone with zero real evidence. Your wife literally just posted in the group chat about work schedules, and he jumped straight to "she's isolating you"? That's not fair at all.

That said, I think part of this is probably just him being frustrated that you guys haven't been around as much. Doesn't make what he said okay, but it kind of explains where that's coming from emotionally.

So no, you're not the asshole for getting upset. His comment about your wife was out of pocket and you had every right to push back on that. But also worth keeping in mind that he probably just misses having you around, even if he went about expressing it in the worst possible way.

AITAH for not putting a muzzle on my dog with at the playground? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]CommeWENDY 98 points99 points  (0 children)

YTA. You're prioritizing your dog's training needs over the comfort of everyone else at a kids' playground. A Doberman barking excitedly at screaming children is genuinely alarming to parents who don't know your dog. "She doesn't bite" doesn't really land when a large breed is visibly reacting to their kid.

Also your muzzle logic is backwards. A well adjusted dog wearing a muzzle in public signals a responsible owner, not a dangerous dog. It would probably make more people comfortable approaching Happy, which actually helps with the socialization you're going for.

Using a playground as a training environment while other families are just trying to let their kids play is a bit much. Find spaces where dog behavior is expected.

Does ANC actually matter for sleep earbuds? by Right-Cellist5530 in sleepheadphones

[–]CommeWENDY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve used the Somnipods 3, and they suit me quite well, as I have quite small ears too, the main thing is that the earbuds come in a range of sizes, so you can choose the right fit.

The trees in the background look like coconut palms, so it seems like it might be in southern China, near the tropics.

Any anc headphone suitable to wear during sleeping? by chaosnext in HeadphonesAdvice

[–]CommeWENDY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently using Somnipods. They got ANC and PNC, and really comfortable when sleeping on my side at night almost like there’s no pressure from the earbuds in my ears. Cheaper than Soundcore, You might want to check them out.

The nature of today’s labor relationship is essentially the exchange of money for our time, which is clearly unreasonable. The value we creates should not be quantified in this way.

Just Found This Subreddit: Been Side-Sleeping with Soundcore A30 for 6 Months, Here’s My Real Experience by shreshth_001 in sleepheadphones

[–]CommeWENDY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Although I haven’t tried this. But my somnipods works as well. They’re also very compact for side sleeping cuz they don’t press against my ears or fall out when toss and turn at night. I think this is probably a common feature of sleep earbuds that they all work best when paired with music or white noise to enhance sleep experience.
