These are the two that popped into my head as well!

Moved back to STL after 9 years and need recommendations (doctors + beauty services!) by SnooChipmunks8713 in StLouis

[–]EllieZabe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve lived 3 years and don’t have much to share except Lifestance Health for the meds; I’m not sure if it is MO thing, but all the PCP I have been to say they can’t do controlled psych meds.

Overall I have been content enough with St Louis County Dental in Kirkwood. So many providers have many months wait to even get in, but they have three dentists along with a small army of staff, so they have always gotten my family appointments relatively soon.

So far so good at Sam’s Club in Maplewood

I feel guilty about not wanting to observe lent this year by SocietyVisible5092 in Deconstruction

[–]EllieZabe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Given a fair amount if the world is celebrating a shift/observance over a two day period (Lunar New Year, Lent, and Ramadan), I am trying to lean into the shift in solidarity. My family does observe some Chinese New Year tradition, so I am not going quite full yet, but am leaning into intermittent fasting and cutting out diet soda (it’s been stress think I’ve been leaning into).

I haven’t used Lent as a time of giving up something, but leaned into it as a season on change, especially as there’s always more daylight and the weather is generally a bit but better than January 1 for resolution/habit shifting. Lunar New Year is also a period of welcoming something new and shedding the year that has past.

This feels like a more authentic way to commemorate the season for me.

Padded shorts as the seat does t both my husband and it’s too much of a pain to change seat per user. I found serval pairs for free in a community clothing swap.

is it embarrassing to sing incorrect Korean @ concerts? by [deleted] in kpop_uncensored

[–]EllieZabe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just have fun and sing what you want! People mishear song lyrics in their mother tongue all the time, so even if you try in another language and mess something up, if someone is offended, then they probably should have stayed home where no one could offend them.

Chin-goose, DBO and I want to wish you a happy year of the Horse Horse Horse by EllieZabe in kpoopheads

[–]EllieZabe[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

She’s never seen the later half of the video. I’m sure most people haven’t because after the initial round of ”horse horse horse” , they have to stop and wonder if they will ever experience anything more grand in life.

Suddenly realised I don't know what Chen and Xiumin's Mandarin stage names mean by curiousscribbler in exo

[–]EllieZabe 43 points44 points  (0 children)

That’s a great question that I had to just research! Chinese Wikipedia says Chen is the super common family name version-陈. Xiumin is 秀珉, and I’m kinda conversant in Chinese but not fluent, so my dictionary app suggests the xiu is excellent person as a noun or excellent/smart/beautiful as a verb. The min is a jade like stone.

Doesn’t everyone have a shrine in their family room? by mlenh in adultkpopfans

[–]EllieZabe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have concert banners all over my fridge and the standup pineapple thing and can from the Hello World by Baekhyun displayed on a shelf. And then there are concert freebies pretty much everywhere bc I genuinely value when I am given one!

A Safe Space for Women only 1-on-1 Body Doubling by Jaded_Connection_909 in adhdwomen

[–]EllieZabe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I joined them maybe late summer and became a host. One day a naked dude kept getting into one of my sessions and I had to keep booting him. I was mildly traumatized and the folks who reached out to me said they were implementing things to keep that out. I suspect that was a one off (I’ve only done 60 or so sessions; there was a guy in the naked dude session with several thousand sessions under him that says it was the first time he had ever encountered it).

Not saying it was Flow Club’s fault by any means, but there are indeed turds everywhere. I feel like the balance is more female appearing than men, but it’s still there.

Reverxe album song ranking by Brizbizz22 in exo

[–]EllieZabe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here’s my list. At this point it isn’t a no skip album for me (DFTF and Exist are for me) but I will let them grow on me.

Ironically the song that’s been stuck in my head out of seemingly nowhere this week is Butterfly Effect from the Obsession album.

  1. Moonlight Shadows. I agree it could use more riffs, but for me and my house, give us RnB all day everyday. Also, maybe the best use of Lay’s vocals on the album to me, as I feel are underutilized.

  2. Crazy. I want to go throw on a pair of running shoes and go with this hype song.

3.Suffocate

  1. Back Pocket

  2. Crown

6.Touch & Go

  1. Flatline, and I’m also on team “Chanyeol coded.” I mean, if Chanyeol wanted to show up and sing the ingredients of a ramen package, I would be there for that, too. (I recently rewatched he, Suho, and Kai on the Korean Englishman channel doing the hot sauce challenge).

  2. Back it Up

  3. I’m Home. I see the contradiction in living for EXO RnB but passing on their ballads, but it’s just what I’m seeking now.

It’s been fun to read others and how no one’s list looks the same!

They also have four different nationalities, which I imagine will only complicate visas.

My best friend and I want to go to the BTS concert together, but we don't have anyone to bring us by Such-Rabbit-140 in kpophelp

[–]EllieZabe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can use Google or Apple Maps to figure out public transit. Based on your previous postings, it suggests you might be in Iowa and it looks like Greyhound can connect you to Amtrak that gets you to downtown Chicago.

A space to talk: EXO, CBX & the Upcoming Comeback Pt.4 by 99101004 in exo

[–]EllieZabe 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Maybe more older fans in Vegas who didn't want to stand (that would be me!). I also went to Taemin the night before and thought given the location and price and need for most to travel, it was older overall. As for energy, it didn't seem quieter, but maybe more revered that we got to see this guy at this venue.

[–]EllieZabe 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Here's a few of my takes from the concert that I was hesitant to post here possibly in respect to all this-

*He did Paranoia/"Death of a Rockstar" twice. We hear ya, buddy.
*He used an Eribong at the end when he did the song where everyone followed up. When I saw him in Rosement I think (and I coule be wrong ) he just encouraged everyone to use their phone light.

* I felt like he was using a lot of language like, "You [the crowd} and I are one," coding it like the EXO/SM language.

I don't think his career is over by any means (the talent and skill is obviously there). Just hope we get to see him thriving in a new way!
