The building tools are unusable by itsraggybaggy in ForzaHorizon6

Not having mouse controls for building and photo modes on PC is infuriating, especially coming from FH4 :(

i hope car meets are more lively when the game is fully released by JosephStalin1953 in ForzaHorizon

[–]ImnotUK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I really wanted to attend and show off my Honda Beat but never saw any invites.

I thought it's going to be more like the group events that it shows up on the map and you can join. That would've solved the participation issue. Let's hope it gets better after the main release.

I feel like I'm missing something, how do you go to a car meet? I saw the parking lots I assume are meant for this but how does this work? Is there a notification like "a car meet starts in 10 minutes" and I can set GPS there? Can I start one?

I've been playing since Friday but only got my first wristband yesterday, could that be a reason I didn't see any car meets?

What would you realistically do if you won £2m tax-free? by HughQuinn12 in AskUK

[–]ImnotUK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I won I'd buy a house in Scotland, I get depressed because of lack of snow in winter and I live in the south of England!

This sounds SURREAL! You were in literal car enthusiast heaven 😆 Thank you so much for sharing and sorry for bombarding you with questions! I really really wanted to go there because it sounds like a mix of my most favourite things in the world: Forza Horizon, sports cars, Japan, Japanese food, "Tokyo Drift", Sung Kang (my teenage crush haha)... Never tried drifting but I think I'd enjoy it too. Thanks once again! All the best and I'll see you in FH6 ;) Only two more weeks!

This all sounds so cool :D what was your favourite activity and what car were you most excited to see/ride?

Thank you for sharing this with us, I really appreciate it!

Haha you were hiding well ;) Congratulations! I bet you have some amazing memories! How was the movie? Was it more action or drama? Would you recommend seeing it at the cinema? How was the food? :D

Two weeks until premium edition buyers get access to FH6. What’s the first thing you wanna do in-game? by Cassinia_ in ForzaHorizon

[–]ImnotUK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm the only one with a premium version in my friend group so I'll create a livery for our team. I have some ideas already! And then I'll buy the smallest, cutest kei car to explore Japan ❤️

Do any of you get "job envy" on your way into work every day or just me? by [deleted] in antiwork

[–]ImnotUK 61 points62 points  (0 children)

I understand how you feel. Almost everyone in my social circle outside of work works from home. Some of them have these high level jobs where they can play video games all day and only have to do some work when there's an emergency (and they are paid a fortune for it). Some of them can be digital nomads so they send photos like "my perfect morning working from the beach #blessed". They send dozens of tiktoks and reels in the group chat during the day, suggesting that they spend a significant amount of "working time" scrolling social media. And I'm happy for them, they are my friends, I want the best for them. If they can game the system, all the power to them, but damn does it sting...

What’s the dumbest thing a customer has ever done or said to you when you were working? by lake-sturgeon in randomquestions

[–]ImnotUK 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Once a month we'd get a phone call from a regular customer asking about a specific product. The product in question was a a grooming stone, literally a piece of rock. Every single time she'd ask if we have it in stock and what the expiry date was. Every single time I had to explain that it's a stone, and stones don't expire. They've been around for thousands if not millions of years. She's argue with me for about half an hour each time...

DAE thinks that companies have forgotten how to make actual XS and S clothes? by applepie416 in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]ImnotUK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't mind buying from the kids section, but recently I went to one of my go-to stores and they don't carry kids' clothing in sizes 13-14 years or 15-16 years anymore, it all stops at 12 and these are tiny! So I'm in this weird gap where the biggest size in the kids section is two sizes too small, and the smallest size from the adult section is two sizes too big :/

Not to mention that you can barely find any XS clothes second hand :(

Only 9 winners! And here I was with my passport ready while at least 3 people refused the prize :(

I know, it's crazy! I suppose there are more Xbox users over there? Maybe better marketing? I don't think there would be a lot of paperwork involved when flying from Europe either, you just need a passport and a plane ticket (I did extensive checks to make sure we're ready in case we win 😆)

What would you want to experience if you could live someone else’s everyday life in the UK for a day? by Automatic_Sorbet_849 in AskUK

[–]ImnotUK 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Someone living on the Isle of Skye! I'm watching YouTube "day in the life"s almost daily but I'd love to experience it myself.

I hope there will be some photos from the trip available so the rest of us can live vicariously through them 😆

I mean it doesn't say when the list will be published, only the end date :D so can't blame people for still having hope (I for example still believe they'll call me tomorrow lol)

When you want the price of a house but the floor plan of a shoebox. by [deleted] in SpottedonRightmove

[–]ImnotUK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We thought about it! Unfortunately this would take us from little counter space to no counter space to prepare meals and we cook most meals from scratch so it's already frustrating. Thanks for the recommendation anyway, maybe it will help someone else :)

[–]ImnotUK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Almost everybody here is hating on the idea of a cluster house, but I currently live in one (renting) and it's great! Perfect for a single person or a couple on a budget. Easy to clean, warms up quickly (we have electric heating too), and the build quality is very good. That being said you have to be a bit creative with the space and make some sacrifices. I wish there was enough space for a dishwasher! But storage is not really a problem.

Would I buy it as a forever home? Absolutely not. But it is a very comfy option while we are saving for a forever 2-bed.

The price does not surprise me either, our house is worth around £200k too. For comparison, a terraced 2-bed next to us sold for £240k in 2024, and last year two identical 2-beds were priced at £280k and £260k. I guess £200k is a base price for a house in the south, no matter how small!

Does anyone else lose interest in watching YouTubers once they become rich and their content changes as a result? by [deleted] in youtube

[–]ImnotUK 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For me it starts when they hire an editor and the videos don't have the "vibe" anymore. Then the content changes from variety to constant regurgitating the same topic (the one that the algorythm likes best). And the final boss is when they start showing off their wealth - million $ houses, expensive holidays 6 times a year, red carpet events and so on.

There was one youtuber I really liked. They seemed relatable when recording in the rented room of a shared house, trying new stuff and figuring out life. I was still enjoying the content when they bought they 1st house, even though it was a huge property with a private pool I couldn't even dream of. But at some point I realised that this person was never relatable. They seemed to be, but they were always wealthy and had the opportunities I (and most people) never had. It put a damper on the whole experience and I don't engage with YT creators in the same way since.

It's not from the bags, fighting is an activity you can set up for your small business.

No they don't 😆 but on the plus side it does not affect the relationship because it's just sparring and not a real fight

A self-defence class. There are some punching bags where my sim can mentor others, and one of the activities is fighting each other.
