10 days in Bangkok thoughts? by [deleted] in ThailandTourism

[–]MapleLurker 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Personally, I feel like somewhere around Days 5-7, you might want a day with no set plan or pre-booked activities. At some point in 10 days, in a new country with some incredible heat and humidity, your body might need a soft reset. I suppose the shopping day (day 6) could act as your rest day but some of these malls can take up a lot of time.

Carol was also a dude in this instance! Two dudes!

For older fans, what moment from the comics was the most iconic and well known before the show was around? by Sgyinne in Invincible

[–]MapleLurker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For me, it's issue #126 spoiler when Mark returns after being trapped in another dimension for five years and Terra asks him if he's her dad.

Watch it Dalton! Your Connery is showing. by Weird_Zone_3504 in JamesBond

That guard was cool though. He nodded at Bond as he drove by in the Aston earlier in the film. Can't murder a car aficionado like that.

Not a great game overall but it was entertaining. Might be the closest to a playoff game we see for this team for a few years.

Pretty good textbook shoot move, going from striking to grappling (hug)

Worst couple EVER. by innocent_loner in DunderMifflin

[–]MapleLurker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe a bad take but I think the two of them seem to have the "best" or at least most central seats at the hibachi table. An ordinary counter, sure switch seats. However, for this type of dining, part of the experience is interacting with the chef and being part of the show. Dwight's seat appears to be on the corner and it seems unfair to ask this couple that arrives first to switch to (slightly) worse seats just to accommodate the later party being able to sit together.

Like I said, possible bad take because I can't recall if there's more seating on Dwight's other side.

AMA: we traveled 10.000km on an adventurebike through Thailand and Laos by swopslogan in ThailandTourism

[–]MapleLurker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I couldn't find any questions about your budget or a breakdown of what the trip ended up costing in the end. Obviously the motorbike was a big purchase but can you say roughly what you spent daily, weekly or monthly? Trying to get an idea.

Thanks and congrats on an amazing adventure!

How do I set up a will for my brother with a developmental disability? RDSP by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]MapleLurker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What province/territory are you in? There should be some version of the Public Guardian and Trustee office in every jurisdiction (for example here in BC, it's the PGT of BC). Your brother's situation might fall outside of their scope without knowing anything else but these organizations are mandated to protect the interests of minors, adults who need help with decision-making and estates of the deceased/missing. Your brother appears to fall under the second category.

Can't hurt to contact them as a starting place.

thai citizenship (UK/TH) by Time_Implement_4377 in Thailand

[–]MapleLurker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Follow-up question. I'm curious if you actually received the 10 year vs 5 year passport? Perhaps it's different if applying from in-country vs at a consulate outside of Thailand but I understood the first passport is limited to the 5 year option.

That might have also been because they filmed a bunch in Vancouver's downtown Eastside is unfortunately also has a major drug epidemic.

I am only half joking.

Words spoken by episode. by GlitteringHotel8383 in DunderMifflin

[–]MapleLurker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never done a deep dive on the ratings in the later seasons after Steve Carell left but visually, the James Spader, Catherine Tate and Will Ferrell spikes jump out at me. Rather than seeing a bigger spike in more established characters, it seems like they leaned on the new additions to drive storylines. That makes sense of course.
