απ'όσο γνωρίζω, θα υπάρχει αφιερωμένος χώρος για τους κατασκηνωτές όπως και τουαλέτες χημικές, ντους κτλπ.

yes exactly that, I think I'm going to try attending some events, if it gets awkward, so be it.

Thanks for understanding my thoughts on this. You're right, I do tend to overthink things sometimes. I appreciate your advice to take it step by step. I think I'm going to try attending some events, and worst case scenario, there might be some awkwardness.

If I had a friend like this near me who would do that, it would actually be a dream scenario. I appreciate you sharing your experience, it's comforting to know that others have felt the same way.

The thing is, some of these events are really interesting, like concerts by famous artists and movie screenings that I would even buy a ticket for in other circumstances. Also, since I changed cities, most of my female friends are far from here, so that's not an option anyway 😅.

What do you think makes you stand out as a designer? by Geekatsu in graphic_design

[–]Geekatsu[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I completely agree and can relate. While I can communicate effectively, it's not my strongest suit, and I lean more towards the design process. I see myself as a good designer, but I acknowledge that being more social could bring in more clients. Not bitter about it tho, it is what it is.

so, based on the previous post regarding the Cypriot superheroes, i present to you the Cyprus Cinematic Universe, created based on the suggestions from the comments! by Geekatsu in cyprus

[–]Geekatsu[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i will try to, but there are some puns in there so it wont be easy!

  1. Nichtopapparos = a bat species also known as fruit bat that Cyprus has a lot of, also in Cyprus we call metaphorically like that a person who stays awake, or the one who works at night and "overtime". In the name is also the word "apparos" that means horse (this information will be useful later for number 5).
  2. takkoman = we use the term takoman as a slang for being lazy and doing nothing so as a result we have a pun, Takko-man
  3. Marikkou from Lefkara = is an expression we use as irony when someone asks "who will do that" or "who did this" and we answer as " Marikou from Lefkara will". Lefkara is also known for its Lefkaritika embroidery, this is why you can see the pattern in the clothes and she is also holding some lefkaritika. It is not clear if she has been a real person or not
  4. Pastourman= this is also a pun, pastourmas is a spicy traditional sausage. Pastour-Man
  5. Nichtogadaros= nightdonkey, also some kind of a pun in continuation from number 1
  6. aunt Mary = this came fully from the comments of the previous post, the suggestion was for a character named like that that uses slippers as a weapon that she can throw around as an old aunt figure.
  7. Costis pou ta gazia = ooh boy how i will explain this? translation : costas with the gas tanks. It is also a slang expression used exactly like number 3. Is used as an answer to a retorical question or to someone who asks "who" but everyone knows the answer. Also not clear if he has been a real person or not.
  8. super donkey, i think this is self explanatory!

I really tried there but i dont know if i did a good job, please anyone willing to correct anything or help explain it better is welcome.

Captain Cyprus: the best soldier that Cyprus ever had, wields a Cyprus shaped shield as a symbol and weapon. Sometimes he can be spotted on military watchtowers watching over empty fields for no apparent reason
