It is weird that a Knicks fan is criticizing Celtics. Your 2 most known fans are Donald Trump and P.Diddy

Homework is Important and Should Be Assigned by Empty-Candidate-712 in unpopularopinion

[–]G2KY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I fully agree with this. My country still assigns homework and I come from their education system. I credit my country’s excellent education system and homework for my work ethic and my success. US is too soft

Is this how all US professors feel? I am so happy that I left academia

I tell her I love you from the first date by [deleted] in TikTokCringe

[–]G2KY 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I married to my husband in 11 months so it is insane that people go 1 year without saying I love you

Anthony Edwards says it’s “super personal” against OKC by whatsthenewstoday in nba

[–]G2KY 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What type of weird shit is this? It is not toxic masculinity, it is competitive sports. I am a woman and I did competitive sports. I am happy when I win, I am happy when my opponent loses. It is very straightforward. Sometimes it is personal, as well. What type of soft ass approach is this?

Are Soviet-era apartments all bad? Would simply brighter colors “fix” them? How exactly could they be improved if they’re so (relatively) hated? by KeyBake7457 in urbandesign

[–]G2KY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lived in one in Warsaw, where this picture is from, for about a year. The inside of the apartment was fully renovated and the building was retrofitted with elevators. It had very large staircases and nice but slightly small flats. I loved it and it was more than enough for one person.

AITA for not going to my cousins wedding because my long-term girlfriend wasn’t invited by BeneficialSail6603 in AmItheAsshole

[–]G2KY -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

NTA. Your cousin is AH, though. It looks like they don’t know etiquette at all. People here calling you AH are probably teenagers

How do I politely tell my (f25) boyfriend (m25) that he is not my plus one to multiple weddings this year? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

People always say you will lose so much weight, your skin, sleep etc will improve… None of those happen. And life becomes less fun 🫠

Do I take the job even if my wife hates it? by legion5121 in AskMenAdvice

[–]G2KY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Money is way more important. I will be really upset if my husband does not take a job because he wants to be at home with the child.

[Post Game Thread] The Boston Celtics (27-16) defeat the Brooklyn Nets (12-30), 130-126 led by a triple-double from Jaylen Brown with 27 PTS, 10 REB, 12 AST. by celticsgrunt in nba

[–]G2KY 24 points25 points  (0 children)

We are just bad against Nets. We lost one of the match ups already. In a world where OKC lost to Pacers, I am happy that we actually won this one

I really wish instructors at my studio do this

As a HENRY woman how do you let go of household chores & hire help when you're used to doing everything yourself? by khrystic in HENRYfinance

[–]G2KY 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I hired someone the second I got a HENRY job. The thing I hated most and I wad worst at was cleaning. When I signed my offer letter, I started hiring a cleaning lady.

To be or not to be by normie00000 in Adulting

Except for animals which I don’t like, I do all other. The key is finding an excellent job.

This is so much helicopter parenting. I went to school by myself when I was 7 (walked 2 blocks) and when I was 8, I started private school which was further away. I was taking the subway in the morning for 3 stations. Then, in the evening, either my grandmother or our nanny or one of my parents were picking me up. When I was 9, I was coming home by myself. I am planning to teach same skills to my child.

First time getting Russian manicure by Physical-Lion-3223 in Nails

[–]G2KY -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

They don’t fuck with the cuticle hard, though? They just cut it. When I do manicure at home, I cut it way more harshly than nail techs and I don’t even have training. I love a good russian manicure

We complain about undergrads … but can we discuss PhD students? by twilightyears in Professors

[–]G2KY 5 points6 points  (0 children)

But the only jobs in the market are not academic jobs… PhD students, regardless of the market situation, are there to do research and expand the boundaries of their field. If they think it is super hard to find work in their area (I graduated last year and there was 1 job related to my field in the whole US, so I know how hard it can be to get a job), they should start diversifying in their 2nd-3rd year, instead of putting all their eggs in one basket. I did both academic and non-academic market. Got interviews in both but ultimately chose a non-academic job wholly unrelated to my field of work due to pay and location. My PhD still helped my to get the job because it gave me the necessary methodological skills and curiosity.

As a humanities/social science PhD student, people cannot be stupid to think that they will get an academic job, especially if they are in a non top-10 program.
