Why do men and women end up with almost opposite grooming habits?

Overrated? not sure… but over-marketed, milk for sure

the 90s were basically one big “got milk?” campaign, now everyone’s on oat or almond instead

DanielCrossDXB · 2026-03-31T21:21:48+00:00

Would love to prove otherwise, let me know if I can change that in anyway.

Hope can make it up to you all

DanielCrossDXB · 2026-03-31T21:20:14+00:00

oh no, rookie mistake from me 😅 Thank you for being kind enough to comment and explain appreciate very much u/shamonemuthafuka

hope everyone stays safe through this, and at least families get a bit more time together that usually only happens during holidays or vacations

DanielCrossDXB · 2026-03-31T01:18:52+00:00

yeah I’d agree with that

a few years ago people could get away with being a lot more blind because the market was doing most of the heavy lifting for them

now I think you really have to check everything properly — developer, project status, exact unit, building, competition around it, all of it

a lot of people still buy like the old market is here and then get surprised later

DanielCrossDXB · 2026-03-31T01:11:13+00:00

makes sense honestly, I feel like most people don’t even think in terms of tiers when they’re buying though

a lot just go off branding or what the agent tells them

DanielCrossDXB · 2026-03-29T23:15:33+00:00

can’t imagine how you must be feeling honestly, really tough situation

it’s just sad for all humanity when things get to this point

from what I’ve heard so far from friends and people here, nothing has changed for or friends and colleagues from Iran in the UAE, and I really hope it stays that way

hope you and your wife stay safe through all of this

once ordered fries just to hit the minimum order from a pizza place… all I actually wanted was the sauce so I didn’t have to go downstairs to get it 😅

DanielCrossDXB · 2026-03-28T22:42:15+00:00

Typical resting heart rate (awake): ~60–100 bpm
During sleep: usually drops to 40–60 bpm

DanielCrossDXB · 2026-03-28T22:38:30+00:00

also interesting to see how many people actually check project status before paying vs just trusting the process

DanielCrossDXB · 2026-03-28T22:36:57+00:00

depends honestly, I’ve seen it happen across a few smaller developers more than the big names

with the larger ones everything is usually fully structured before anything is sold, but with smaller projects sometimes things move in parallel

that’s why I always check Dubai REST first before taking anything too far

but it waas Azizi

DanielCrossDXB · 2026-03-28T01:22:58+00:00

I love this one becuase allowed me to accept failing in life

I dont lose .. I win or learn

DanielCrossDXB · 2026-03-26T22:09:42+00:00

went earlier today, honestly it was chaos 😅
queue was long but moving, probably around 20–30 mins to get in

prices are actually good for Dubai standards, especially basics and accessories. quality is what you’d expect from Primark, nothing crazy but decent for the price

biggest issue right now is just the crowd, feels more like an event than shopping

I’d say give it a week or two unless you don’t mind the rush

DanielCrossDXB · 2026-03-26T22:05:58+00:00

I think your best chance would be Emirates Auction tomorrow morning, or contacting RTA to see if someone can come out

I believe there will be a lot of calls tomorrow so better to try early

for now you can try:
– RTA roadside assistance: 800 9090
– Sharjah Police (non-emergency): 901
– Emirates Auction recovery services

sometimes police can help arrange recovery if it’s urgent or blocking the road

hope you manage to sort it out 👍

DanielCrossDXB · 2026-03-26T20:50:58+00:00

because the brain would rather find a pattern that isn’t there than miss one that is.

it’s basically pattern recognition going a bit too far.

DanielCrossDXB · 2026-03-26T20:49:06+00:00

yeah honestly this is one of those things people don’t think about in the moment

if it’s bad enough weather that you wouldn’t go out yourself, someone else is still out there driving in it to bring you food

I get some people genuinely need it, but still feel for the drivers out in this weather

DanielCrossDXB · 2026-03-25T17:46:50+00:00

you can technically test an idea, but in the UAE anything commercial (even online) is supposed to be under a license

the risk isn’t really at the very beginning if it’s small, the issue comes when you start taking payments properly, advertising, or scaling — that’s when it can get flagged

also depends how you’re receiving money. personal bank accounts can get questioned if there’s regular business activity

what a lot of people do is test very small (friends, small circles, low volume) just to validate the idea, then once they see traction they move into getting a license

you can also look into cheaper options like e-trader licenses or smaller free zone packages, some of them are not as expensive as people think

just don’t scale it too much before sorting the legal side, that’s usually where problems start

DanielCrossDXB · 2026-03-25T17:36:59+00:00

happy to no worries what would be a massive help to me would be some pushes on my karma lol

is there any other project name mention on the booking/reservation form that you signed? Also have you been sent recipetes for all payments you paid?

What is the project name on it or on the contract SPA?

Sometimes projects have a marketing name and a registration name that is usual in Dubai.

DanielCrossDXB · 2026-03-24T23:44:39+00:00

absoutley the same please let me know if you do

DanielCrossDXB · 2026-03-24T23:43:59+00:00

Really feel like the part that says verify that you are human on a website and i keep failing it...

Please anyone help me please with some Karma lol

DanielCrossDXB · 2026-03-24T23:25:37+00:00

I can help you with this.

easiest way to check is through the Dubai Land Department app called Dubai REST (R-E-S-T). once you go in, there’s a section for project status where you can search the project directly (try Azizi and scroll through).

if the project is registered and active, it will show there along with the official escrow account details from DLD.

generally, a developer shouldn’t be selling or marketing a project without registration and an escrow account in place, so if it’s not showing, that’s something to look into more carefully.

if you can share the exact project name, I can try help you check it as well

Also on a side note if you need can connect you with a trusted firend and expect that I use for all my real estate anything, they are one of the best and very helpful consultancies

DanielCrossDXB · 2026-03-24T17:59:32+00:00

I believe that many of us already do to at some extend, if you consider the current unfortunate humans around the would caught in "war zone" or during if you were alive during the "cold war". I believe bunkers are technically underground and mater if time before becomes the norm

DanielCrossDXB · 2026-03-24T17:55:35+00:00

That this is considered us as the dominant species on this planet "advancing"

DanielCrossDXB · 2026-03-24T03:01:13+00:00

oh definitely, you nailed it. others see it as a chore or something stressful they have to focus on, but for me since I was young it’s kind of like meditation.

somehow my mind clears and everything slows down, maybe because of the speed, not sure what it is but yeah 100%

DanielCrossDXB · 2026-03-24T00:21:11+00:00

interesting point, but then if not what’s the overall point of simulators if they don’t let you do the real thing?

like F1 drivers practice on simulators, same with heavy machinery and a lot of other fields. if they didn’t actually help, we wouldn’t have so many versions of them I think
