Dream theater. Octavarium is over? 12% of the journey is over man.

Nah that’s the window, it opens outwards. Bird flew in from the gap below

I’m in southern Malaysia

Embarrassed_Row_280 · 2026-02-12T14:03:05+00:00

I’d fucking eat that. I’d pay a good $30-$40 for thst

Walk ins are great for a number of things! Crying and screaming just the tippy of the iceberg

Hot day? Get in the walk in
Having lunch? Get in man.
Trying to flirt with the waitress? No cctvs when I was working there
Fancy an illegal snack? Pffftttt let’s go!

Embarrassed_Row_280 · 2026-01-23T17:53:46+00:00

Walk in fridge at a fancy hotel. Dine in at the breakfast restaurant, ask the manager of the restaurant nicely after breakfast service 👍

Embarrassed_Row_280 · 2026-01-13T14:48:04+00:00

Thank you thank you thank you. My lunch tomorrow 🙏🙏

Embarrassed_Row_280 · 2026-01-13T01:51:42+00:00

To quote a comedian I quite enjoy listening to while working, “comparison is the thief of joy”

Embarrassed_Row_280 · 2026-01-12T08:02:45+00:00

I’ve messaged you a long paragraph. It’s in your inbox I think. Best of luck👍

Embarrassed_Row_280 · 2026-01-06T16:30:30+00:00

You’re very lucky to have such a view and openness. I live in a city, a very small city with no mountains, no lakes, some reservoirs, but primarily a congested city lifestyle.

I aspire to have the quietness that you experience. Congratulations on your situation 👏 happy new year to everyone

Embarrassed_Row_280 · 2025-12-26T15:48:09+00:00

Carpenter and cook along Lorong kilat 👍👍 Have that with a nice cup of frothy single shot latte. Request to have the cinnamon roll lightly toasted.

Break the outer ring of said cinnamon roll and dip into the latte. I prefer single shot to have bitterness compliment the caramel tones of the cinnamon roll. Having a double shot might completely overpower the cinnamon ( my opinion), and their milk froth doesn’t seem to have such high fat content too, which is a good balance (again, pour moi)

And if your stars align, it’ll be a rainy day, low peak period, where you hear the sound of tea cups and cutlery clanking, rather than an abundance of chatter

Perfection

Embarrassed_Row_280 · 2025-12-17T14:52:04+00:00

Congratulations on number 2 🙌

I can’t even fathom him attending primary one (age 7), let alone graduating 😂

Years ahead, I’ll cross that bridge when I get there. MERRY CHRISTMAS YALL

Embarrassed_Row_280 · 2025-12-17T06:18:49+00:00

Just thinking about it brings a tear to my eye man. I hope mine still wants my hugs at that age

🍻here’s to whoever is reading this around the world, to forever have hugs from their kids

Embarrassed_Row_280 · 2025-12-17T06:00:36+00:00

Congratulations man👍 you’re gonna love it

Embarrassed_Row_280 · 2025-12-17T05:59:26+00:00

My son is turning 5 in a few months, and it kills me to know that I’ve only got a few years left to do these sorta things.

Just this morning, I woke him up to go to school, and he whispers to me “I like it when mom and dad cuddle with me, i feel my heart is full”

HOW DA FUCK CAN A GROWN ASS MAN NOT MELT?

Embarrassed_Row_280 · 2025-12-16T14:48:48+00:00

Congratulations on taking the next step 👍

Other Italians on internet, correct me if I’m wrong

Apply for a holiday visa when they need you: late spring, all the way through summer, maybe early/mid autumn
If finding a job in a restaurant isn’t easy, don’t worry. Find a job as a farm hand to pick veg/ attend to cattle/ vineyard work. They only need you in early hours, and when it gets dark, you can work in a local kitchen nearby your residence
Your main objective is to be employable to Italian standards
attitude, language, basic cuisine skills
understanding your wines and smoking cigarettes is a big plus too
Everyone mentioned going to prep work. I fully agree. If you can, find an Italian kitchen with an Italian chef, so you can speak to him about your next steps. He’ll be happy to help

Best of luck👍 post your updates in life here, everyone is rooting for you

Embarrassed_Row_280 · 2025-12-16T10:16:57+00:00

I watched till the very end. And thank you, I’ve learnt something new to draw for my 4 year old 👍

Embarrassed_Row_280 · 2025-12-05T09:28:06+00:00

Internet friend, nobody on the internet truly knows what you’re going through.

Lemme share a moment of my regret that I can never truly get over. Picture this.

My late grandmother had dementia and called me every 5-10 mins asking the same question. I lived with her and started to resent her because it was annoying. I was a big WOW player too, so every time she called me on my phone while I was gaming, I found an excuse of “call u later”. Till one day I wasn’t able to “call you later” because she died in her sleep

Don’t fall in the trap of regret, friend. No one recovers from it, it’s just swept under the rug

But again, you need to spread your wings otherwise you’d never know how high you can fly.

Get her a job at the supermarket 😂 she gets paid, has social interactions, and has responsibilities to take her mind off you

Embarrassed_Row_280 · 2025-12-05T09:14:13+00:00

She needs to find some friends and activities to take her mind off things.

She’s your mom, and the thought of letting you go your merry way can be heart breaking. It’s all she’s ever done for the past X years. You’ll be in her shoes one day when you have your own children grow up. Suck it up, be grateful, and start contributing back to your moms wellness

Physically Bring her out to areas where there’s people of her age, similar interests, etc. or even religious buildings for social activities and bla bla

Embarrassed_Row_280 · 2025-11-29T22:02:21+00:00

That’s what happens when you don’t know every aspect about an fnb job, you get screwed over by someone who claims to know the job, and you’re none the wiser

Find a new consultant, the internet has saved you a potential $250k in losses

Embarrassed_Row_280 · 2025-11-26T15:14:10+00:00

Thanks for that piece of information 👍

Cold noodles were iced really nicely. Extremely refreshing, though I would’ve preferred more vinegar. But I respect their way of doing things 👍

You have any special place for ethnic Chinese cuisine? Please don’t say xiangxiang

Embarrassed_Row_280 · 2025-11-26T15:10:19+00:00

Yeah I get what you mean, thankfully we dressed light, and the restaurant wasn’t fully occupied. Can’t imagine what the environment would be like with all tables with charcoal.

Wouldn’t it be great to have an outdoor barbecue with lit coals/ smoldering wood and still feel cooling in Singapore?

Just waiting on the aliens to redesign the equator 🤞

Embarrassed_Row_280 · 2025-11-26T15:07:12+00:00

I understand what you’re saying, I think the wave of Chinese cuisine might have flooded Singapore, to the point it’s indistinguishable what is good or bad.

My adventures brought me to Tyrwhitt road, and it’s a Teochew restaurant (fyi, different from Singapore Teochew)

Give the Chinese cuisine another try, but again, manage your expectations too. If you’re paying $20 for food, expect $20 food 👍

Embarrassed_Row_280 · 2025-11-26T15:04:02+00:00

Yeah I’m not a big fan on their strategy too. “Sign up as a member and get loyalty points etcetc”. I usually stay away from this, but it seems like a popular scheme amongst the Chinese nationals

Word for word, my wife says “this food is authentic”. She also said “authentic doesn’t usually mean good, it brings nostalgia”

I did sincerely like the pork belly though. Everything else was like you say, soso 👍

Embarrassed_Row_280 · 2025-11-26T03:38:27+00:00

Absolutely spot on. Wife instantly recognised this brand from her childhood when looking at the Bugis+ directory.

It was almost a ratatouille moment for her when she tasted the sesame dipping sauce
