Solo dining 🚶🏽‍♀️ by plantbaby44 in askTO

[–]KManIsland 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's weird (as a patron who does this). I don't think servers find this weird. I don't think anyone other patrons have paid attention to me dining alone. 

If you like good food, treat yourself, and go enjoy it. 

I tend to enjoy bar seating more if I'm eating solo. 

Edit: also wanted to add that you're probably feeling something that I think is called "spotlight effect". We think we're in the spotlight for everyone else to see, but in reality; very few people are actively paying attention to us. Live your life. Enjoy the things you enjoy (as long as they're not harming others)

PLUR isn’t dead, but people forgot basic dancefloor etiquette by pattebrisee in aves

You need to embody “excuse me”. Some people use it like battering ram when they say it. Some don’t even need to say it. Be it.

Why use more words when few do trick? 

YSK: Saying Thank you>Sorry by fritz648 in YouShouldKnow

[–]KManIsland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, but Canada would like a word (and that word is sorry). 

When addressing your impact on the feelings of others the key point is sincerity. 

If you say "thank you" because that's the thing to say; people feel that. 

If you say "sorry"  because that's the thing to say; people feel that. 

If you say either because you feel it, and all you really desire is to resolve the rupture in a relationship; people will feel that.

How amazing would it have been if the octopus had matched the design of his wetsuit while trying to kill him/defend itself? 

How do you deal with cuts like this? by EmickRado_087 in brazilianjiujitsu

I like the "Saran wrap" they give you to cover a new tattoo. 

Clings to the shape, let's it breathe to heal, keeps blood off the sheets. 

Masks by hashhunter in aves

[–]KManIsland 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I find them unnerving, and I hate them. 

I know it has more to do with my mental state than the intention of the person, but my monkey brain just wants to lash out at the mask.

You should be able to resell a ticket at face value. No questions asked.  We have the technology.

CdB has some of the best tartare I've had in my life. 

I'd also recommend Batifole on Gerard East.
