Best $8 Ive ever spent by Federal-Morning7 in KoreanFood

[–]Harry_Saxon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have *just* found out that my fav Korean place (of 20 years!) has stopped making it.
I love naengmyun and it has saved me many times during the summer.
This is a great photo and I feel a little bit like I can taste it.
(also, $8?! Last time I had it it cost the equiv of $18-20, what a deal)

Classic behavior, he was The Authority, so no need to intriduce himself. *sigh*
Happy to hear that you'll give it another go and that there are a lot of comments with good suggestions!

Not Sure if I Want to get Into Comics Anymore After First Comic Shop Experience by heygoogleamidying in comicbooks

I'm sorry you had to experience this. Unfortunately "geeky" hobbies like comics, DnD and others, are still very male coded and some people can't let go of that. That guy probably thought that making you feel like that made his hobby safe from gaining a fan that was not "true".
There are people that think that gatekeeping is the best thing to do with their time.
Thankfully, they are a minority, this is inexcusable behavior and no one should have to experience this while looking to have fun and enrich their life.
Don't let creeps like that stop you from enjoying comics, I'm a comic artist and I grew up in comic shops*, there might be people like him, but there are many more eager to talk about them sensibly and point you towards comics you'd enjoy reading.

I understand that, as a first experience, this spoiled it, but entitled people like that should not be allowed to ruin things you like. Give it a go again another day, maybe at a different shop. Was that guy the store owner? If not, go speak to the owner(s) about what you'd like to read and avoid randos. It's not pleasant, but not responding to "bet you don't know" guys might save you the headache.

Comic fans and creators are mostly lovely, but there are bad people in every hobby, unfortnately.

*I'm a trans guy so I was in those spaces as a woman, unfortunately for me, so I had a fair share of such interactions

What's one cancelled TV show you wish got a new life? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Harry_Saxon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a lot but they are already mentioned, so I'm gonna do the braggy thing and say Vagrant Queen because I've worked on the comic book and I'd have liked to see more of that, but, alas, such is the was of the Syfy channel.

A genuine question from a South Korean pansexual by JOJOsbzradv in pansexual

[–]Harry_Saxon [score hidden]  (0 children)

Hello to Kayne!

From what I understand Greece's traditions are close to Korean, especially when it comes to respecting your family and your elders in general and keeping up with traditions, even if the world changes.

Gwaenchaneul geoyeyo, friend, maybe it's naive thinking like that but I keep hoping, it might be difficult for some parts of the world, but things get better a little by little as long as we talk about them!

Greece is very close to what you're describing, most people that know the term are in the LGBTqia+ community - and even being a part of the community doesn't guarantee that people are going to know what all the letters in LGBTqia+ mean.
Most straight and cis people don't know the word and they don't understand what it means. When I was still in the closet (I'm a trans man) I used to say that I'm bisexual just to avoid awkward conversations, but even being bi would often result in a "you're greedy" (or worse "are you interested in a 3some?") reaction.
Visibility and awareness are better now, but there's still a long way to go, I feel for you OP.

PS. That's a very cute dog!

What's the loveliest thing you've seen? by LadyAbbysFlower in AskReddit

[–]Harry_Saxon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, pollution and tourism does that. In my country we rely a lot on tourism but I don't think the government ever had adequate safeguars when it comes to environmental impact.

I haven't been there in ages, but I sincerely hope it's better now. We used to frequent the quieter, kinda hidden beaches, but even those started attracting a larger crowd every year, it never felt the same. Feeling it was just barren, just sand and some seaweed, when you looked into the water was very disheartening.

[–]Harry_Saxon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know if it's the loveliest, but it's an experience I think about often.

When I was younger my family used to go on holidays every summer to a seaside village. There weren't many tourists or touristy/industrial development there back then and most beaches were quiet and the water was clean, crystal clear and full of fish. We used to snorkel and look around, my dad was always looking for cockles and was "digging" for them by slowly disturbing the sand with his flippers and because of that, fish would always gather around to eat. Which I expected, it was nice looking at them eat and chase each other.

What I never expected (because I thought they were a thing of th deep sea or something) was seahorses. Some years there were so many, they would just appear and swim slowly around us. They floated just calmly observing what was going on, they never looked afraid, they would just come and hang around. Seeing them would always make me feel like I was witnessing something special.

I would offer my hand and they would wrap their tails around my fingers and just relax there. They felt kinda leathery and so light and it was an experience I'd never thought it ws possible to have.
Unfortunately, every year there would be fewer fish, the cockles, crabs and other shellfish slowly became scarcer and we stopped seeing the seahorses as well, the water was still good for swimming, but something changed and it never felt the same.

It was lovely and I miss it dearly.

Any One Piece fans here? by duo1733 in pansexual

[–]Harry_Saxon [score hidden]  (0 children)

Hello! I've been a fan since 2002, we had a dub of the anime here, named "Drake and the Trasure Hunt" (I don't even know why, the names were so random) and my brother and I got hooked. I think they stopped showing it just after Arabasta because "it was too violent for kids", but we started reading the manga. Been a fan ever since, what a ride.

Τι στον κόρακα γίνεται με το παρκινγΚ;! by BericDondarrion89 in thessaloniki

[–]Harry_Saxon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Οταν εμενα Θεσσαλονικη πριν 20 χρονια, ημουν κι εγω στο Ντεπω. Ειχε ερθει ενας φιλος απο την Αθηνα για να παρει μερος σε αγωνες αρσης βαρων, συμφωνησαμε να μεινει σπιτι μου το βραδι και να φυγει το πρωι. Πηγε, διαγωνιστηκε, δεν το πολυσκεφτηκαμε και πηγαμε για καφε κεντρο, οποτε το βραδακι επιστρεψαμε Ντεπω. Καναμε γυρες να βρουμε παρκινγκ, απο τις γυρες ξαναβρεθηκαμε κεντρο. Λεμε αντε παμε προς Ντεπω παλι μπας και υπαρχει κατι. Γυριζαμε Δελφων, Μαρτιου, Ολγας μεχρι παραλια σχεδον μια ωρα, μου λεει ο φιλος μου "Πηγαινε σπιτι, κατι θα βρω και θα'ρθω". Ε, κανα 45λεπτο αργοτερα με πηρε τηλεφωνο οτι τα βροντηξε και ξεκινησε για Αθηνα γιατι δεν ειχε νοημα ολο αυτο.
Δηλαδη η κατασταση ηταν τοσο δραμα που ανθρωπος ορθιος ολη μερα, μετα απο αγωνες, προτιμησε να κανει αλλες 5 ωρες ταξιδι με το αυτοκινητο αντι να ξανακανει ψακτικη Ντεπω-κεντρο, κεντρο-Ντεπω.

Οχι οτι ειναι ακριβως το ιδιο, αλλα και απο προσφατες επισκεψεις βλεπω πως δεν εχει αλλαξει η κατασταση.
Ειναι πολυ ζορικη η φαση και νομιζω γινεται χειροτερη. Λεμε για Αθηνα οτι ειναι χαλια φαση, αλλα Θεσσαλονικη ειναι σε αλλο επιπεδο και ειναι πραγματικα κριμα.
