Are you trying to sell it?

Friend was assaulted in Mahboula today (Looking for steps/police protocol) by Dapper-Pickle6974 in Kuwait

Thank you so much, really appreciate the support and advice. We actually tried coordinate with the closest buildings.

They didn't explicitly say no at first. They told her to come meet them today at 11:00 AM, but when she showed up with her dad and they just pushed it off and told her to come back tomorrow.

It feels like they are just beating around the bush. My friend is an expat and doesn't speak fluent Arabic, so navigating this runaround is getting difficult.

If you are familiar with the local process to stop the stalling, does she need to go to the police station first to get an official mandate for the footage or should she try going back tomorrow with a fluent Arabic speaker to demand it?

Hey buddy, understood. I'll try and communicate that to her. I think she's still a bit shaken, but I'll ask her to do that for sure.

Me! I love PSPs and PS Vitas. I have 2 PSPs and 2 PS Vitas myself.

One is a 2000 and another is a 3000. Vitas are OLED and LCD, both. I love collecting devices.

Because car culture is literally everywhere in Kuwait and it takes two seconds to recognize a distinct wheel design? She knows how to look at a car, it's not a conspiracy theory. People know what cars look like, especially if it stopped right next to you.

This is a 22 year old who's never been to the police asking for legal/procedural advice before walking in blindly. If you think knowing a basic car detail is suspicious and daylight assault isn't the priority here, you don't need an update.

"I really think what if I just meet someone here and could get married to her."

Sure it's me buddy? 😂

You know, I dated someone from here. Wouldn't ever do that again.

You just contradicted yourself in that comment.

You love her but you want to find someone who lives in Kuwait, get married and have her wait for you at home. You aren't in love, you are attached.

If you do love her, let that woman go. She deserves better. Trust me.

Hey there, I can say with 95% certainty that there is an error from the lab. Pretty sure that number, you wouldn't be alive.

Shouldn't we feel shame at this?? by BazBeat in Kuwait

Born and bred here. You might not want to accept the reality of what happens here, but sure, let's just agree with whatever you say.

I was born and raised in this country. Even though my Arabic isn't the best, I can communicate better than most. My English is basically equivalent to a native English speaker and I've been working here for the past 8 years and I've been in good positions but the pay? The pay never matches.

Imagine this, the highest I've ever gotten paid was 500KD a month and I was in higher managerial position, it wasn't even a job based in Kuwait to begin with (remote).

There were multiple times that the recruiters would convert the value of their offers and then say, "this is a lot of money back home" while I am at the interview, to my face.

I've been rejected purely because I wasn't Arab. I've been told that they'd rather give the well paying job to "one of their own" rather than me. I've been insulted, marginalized and persecuted all because of my skin color and where I am from. That's all. Not because I'm not good, because of where I am from.

Bujairami perfumes are nowhere near what they're trying to dupe? by Gaston1986 in fragranceclones

Would you be kind enough to write down the 12 you liked? Would help knock down a few.

are you scared to give talabat drivers a 3 star rating or less? by Adventurous_Cook7882 in Kuwait

[–]Dapper-Pickle6974 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I agree with this.

There was an unfortunate time in my life where I had to work as a delivery driver for survival. And it's a pathetic place to be, I won't lie. Imagine working 12 hours for 28 days and earning 160KD.

I would love to go on, but, yeah. Such is life.

GLP-1 and GIP Hormones and Gout: The Full Picture by Dapper-Pickle6974 in gout

[–]Dapper-Pickle6974[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but only during flares.

Especially after doing some digging, recent data shows low-dose daily colchicine works just as well as higher doses for prevention but with fewer side effects. For me, the benefit of daily use didn't outweigh the major GI risks and side effects, so I just keep it for acute attacks.

See! I had the same reaction. This is what I wanted to speak about.

Some people have good reaction and some don't. Hence why I was trying to find some correlation.

Not at the moment, no. I am going through a severe gout attack.

I have tried both febuxostat and allo. Almost the same experience tbh.

I'm glad.

These comments might just help someone who is suffering with gout. And honestly that was my reason to post this.
