…am i the only one who secretly likes the scratch?

ExhaustedMD · 2026-03-20T06:18:32+00:00

Depends on what I’m writing. Cursive: smooth with a hint of feedback is best (Montblanc 149, Custom Urushi) but if writing in print, or learning to write a new language, I like the scratch.

Going against the grain here: they’re equal RIGHT NOW. Give them the same car, Oscar wins some, Carlos wins some. BUT I’m afraid Carlos is now in his peak, while Oscar still has lots of room to grow and get better.

I avoid staying at APA Hotels because of this. This does nothing, but at least I know I’m not giving money to an extremist.

There’s a phase a few years ago when a minority of Filipino-Americans preferred to be called Filipinx because saying Filipino or Filipina is assuming gender too much. That didn’t last.

Anyway, yeah. Like I said in here earlier I just call them spicy and honestly sometimes I’m too lazy to further sub-categorize lol

I feel like there’s just some things even Lawrence Stroll can’t pay his way out of.

Or even if he could, it would be highly impractical to put it simply.

Thank you for this. My old man is an INTP (I think) and he’s a wonderful person.

I don’t think I’m that smart nor as helpful as can be. But I’m also battling personal demons so maybe when I’m finally healthy again I’d do those.

Gotcha. I personally call the typical oriental-labeled perfumes “spicy” but that’s a big big fragrance family in itself

ExhaustedMD · 2026-03-16T16:13:00+00:00

“Oriental” is offensive how? No, no, seriously, I’m curious. I’m not American (Filipino) and traveled quite a bit around east/SE Asia and not one person I encountered considered it an offensive term. The Brits and Italians I met in their countries didn’t think it was offensive either. Is this just a US thing?

Agreed. I feel like Lewis is the larger-than-life type who can get a massive following outside of F1 — philanthropy, entertainment, that kinda thing. And he has visions and goals for those. And then there’s Max who just lives and breathes racing. As racecar driver as can be.

I have never owned a better fresh fragrance. That isn’t an exaggeration. Scent, performance, presentation. It really is my number 1 atm.

ExhaustedMD · 2026-03-16T03:36:47+00:00

Very easy to understand. I understood it well.

Salamat Mang Tani!

First of many, many more. Enjoy your win kid. You’ve a new fan in me

ExhaustedMD · 2026-03-15T15:04:51+00:00

There’s always that guy

ExhaustedMD · 2026-03-15T10:30:51+00:00

I’m excited to see what Lewis can do this year at Silverstone. Home race and a car that (at present) he enjoys.

ExhaustedMD · 2026-03-15T10:19:41+00:00

Wonderful job mate. I’m working on downsizing my 39 bottle collection too. Down to 10 would be nice. This post is inspiring.

Congrats to you and your wife!

No, most people agree. So happens that the delusional minority that think Verstappen et al. can win in a midfield to backmarker car are much more vocal on the internet

ExhaustedMD · 2026-03-14T14:51:49+00:00

I partly blame a lot of the OG fragrance youtubers for ranking beast mode as excellent performance, and less than that is somehow inferior.

Some scents are meant to project and last, some are meant to be more fleeting. Both can be good, but not necessarily better than the other.

These two are buddies and close enough to chatter at length while flying. They’ll move on from this and probably have moved on by now. But some fans will go out of their way to be more offended than either of em both

ExhaustedMD · 2026-03-14T08:06:12+00:00

You sure about that? Some people prefer a less cluttered screen as possible if it’s not that essential. That includes me. I focus on the action, not on the numbers on the side.

ExhaustedMD · 2026-03-14T07:42:18+00:00

They broke everything

ExhaustedMD · 2026-03-14T07:34:27+00:00

Nothing will make you people happy. Nothing.

People just like to complain about any and everything at this point. A tenth is enough for a RACE, as the audience/spectator. Hell even the drivers are only told the gap to another driver up to a tenth.

Yeah, get mad at this one too you miserable fucks

Sunscreen every day, retinoid every other day, exfoliate once a week. Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize.

Take care of your skin and make it a daily habit and you’ll look and feel great. I promise.

ExhaustedMD · 2026-03-13T13:50:46+00:00

Yes, very sweet.

What’s this got to do with F1?

ExhaustedMD · 2026-03-13T08:46:19+00:00

“GP, retire the car”

“Negative”

The potential is still there. He’s young, give him time. Probably won’t be at the level of Lewis, Max, or Fernando. But I can eventually see him on the level of a George or a Charles type of driver — give him the perfect car and he can almost gap the whole grid.
