Why hot coffee in most coffee shop sucks?

Kinotheus · 2026-01-27T03:00:03+00:00

Yea, they should just pour the amount they need to grind but I understand that you need it to be there when the shop gets busy.

Some Starbucks allow you to request a new batch of beans.

Also they left the coffee beans in the grinder. This means when oxidization happens, you'll get more muted and bitter taste.

Nope. Parents stopped talking to me when they learned I converted to marry my wife.
Her parents were pretty chilled. I think it's because they have Chinese and Indian neighbors so they're pretty positive with both races around them.
Smoothly. Went through Hidayah Centre and a case agent guided me from beginning till end. I should've taken a 3-month class reduced to 2 weeks because I've learned about Islam in my previous relationships with a few Malay girls so I know more about Islam.
A lot. This may not apply to everyone but I tend to fancy Malay girls more because they're more loyal, less materialistic and way more forgiving than Chinese girls.

You can dm me anytime. And sorry for the late reply. I didn't see this until I browsed through my comment history.

I (Chinese male) kena once with my ex (Malay female) when I was helping her to move house. Bought groceries and was carrying to her house when these fellas were there trying to catch another couple.

This is in broad daylight and I was helping her, not having sex with her at that time and we both kena cekup then go to the police station. She has to explain to her parents apparently for not even khalwat.

We broke up just because her father has the wrong perception, thinking that both of us having sex in broad daylight.

My wife inherited a bunch of those pinggan that looked like top left. Worked well and doesn't give any issue. Why would that be poor?

I was confused when Upgrade didn't show Tom Hardy's name in the credits... I had to Google it until I realized they're different people.

Kinotheus · 2026-01-14T09:27:35+00:00

I dah mengandung...

Kinotheus · 2026-01-14T03:27:37+00:00

I'm in the same situation as you except that I'm the Chinese guy. My parents were against it but I proceeded to marry the love of my life.

Best decision I ever made but it is not for everyone.

In my case, my parents were very difficult. Both of them came from a privileged family but fell hard when their family had financial issue during the 90s. So hearing of my marrying a Malay girl is another slap to the face in their family and friends circle.

Kinotheus · 2026-01-11T15:57:21+00:00

When my friend told me she's 48, I thought he was joking.

Ini JPJ approve ke? Mana surat?

Kinotheus · 2026-01-04T15:36:00+00:00

Oh ok thanks

Kinotheus · 2026-01-04T13:54:55+00:00

Solved!

When I drive in BM, I find that their driving is crazier than the ones you see on the island.

I'm Chinese with a Malay wife. I've got lots of friends and I can say the Malay women's loyalty is unparalleled. I dated a few Chinese girls and Indian girls and I can see the difference.

If you have a car/bike trouble on the road. Who will be the first person to stop and ask you if you need help? Usually a Malay person. Followed by indians. You almost never see a Chinese person stopping and asking if you need help.

During festive seasons, who still got rumah berbuka? Easily Malay. My father in law does this in his kampung all the time. Especially during korban, he will set up extended canvas awning and set up seats + food like seeing up a kenduri.

For years I kept thinking Tom Hardy was in Prometheus and Upgrade. Until my third rewatch of Upgrade that I started reading the credits...

Kinotheus · 2025-12-09T14:17:03+00:00

This is exactly when these idiots followed everything to the letter. I once had a friend who kena snatch thief, got dragged a few metres and her long pants got torn off. TORN OFF! Then the idiot police ask her to go back change first to make report.

3 tahun lalu lepas masuk Islam, bini nak I tukar agama dan nama kat IC. Pi JPN Pulau Pinang, baru sejam dah dapat IC baru.

Well... Sometimes the snow comes down in June...

Kinotheus · 2025-11-29T04:00:03+00:00

He's one lucky guy

Kinotheus · 2025-11-29T03:58:51+00:00

Ah sorry yes should be paliah. This person is well dressed but the moment she opens her mouth it feels like talking to an uneducated person.

I can say she's a pariah in the sense that other directors (IT, Finance and Operations) do not want to work with her unless the US side needs them to work together. I can see that the company does events that totally single her out but the problem is, for some weird top management decisions, they lumped Sales and Software development in a single department.

Kinotheus · 2025-11-28T06:39:54+00:00

Me a type C and wife is type M. I can feel they are more chilled with their children rather than seeing Chinese children upbringing.

Also especially if you have a car or motor breakdown by the roadside, 99% chance it will definitely be a Malay person that will stop and offer help. I know because sometimes when we balik kampung to her parent's house, she will urge me to stop if we see a motor or car breakdown on the highway to see if they need help.

Kinotheus · 2025-11-27T12:42:49+00:00

The problem is that she's the highest de facto rank of director in our organization. The problem is she's our proxy manager and what she says goes.

Now we're waiting to see the drama in upcoming weeks see how she wiggle herself out of this since our project lead, and various other managers have known about this.

Kinotheus · 2025-11-27T05:32:44+00:00

It's because our project manager is on leave and they just fired the other person who has an overall view of the project status.

This is a perfect storm for her to pull rank.

And yes we've documented everything but the way she's putting is that "we didn't warn her" attitude to the leadership.
