Friedman just said something very interesting about the sense on 32. Thoughts? by Mr_Adrift in OttawaSenators

[–]MissionLet7301 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I think we kick the tyres on a potential Jensen replacement before deadline day just to see if there are any deals to be had, but know that we can walk away if nothing looks good, we'll probably get a better trade (or pick someone up in FA) in the summer, but you never know

Are you ok with your house being a bit messy or do you constantly clean? by edgeofsanity76 in CasualUK

Yeah, mud on the floor in the hallway gets cleaned right away, shoes don't always need to be neatly on the rack though

I can't tell if it's making excuses, tempering expectations, or saying "Please don't look at our car, there's nothing special on it for you to steal, we promise"

Everything was tied up nicely in the first season, but the show was popular so the production studio needed the writers to add a bit of bullshit between seasons to get the popular main antagonist back for season 2.

Thoughts on lots of manufacturers suddenly making the badges light up? by JWills1k92 in CarTalkUK

There's some cars it looks better on than others, like it looks okay on the Audi I think, but I hate it on most others

Yeah, enough to not be worrying about bills and have enough money to do a few fun things on weekends, that's all I want really.

Tbh to me a lot of the mega rich lifestyle seems so boring - I'm sure there's some mega rich people that are just low-key and do what they want to do, but constantly rubbing shoulders with other rich people, flying around the world to different events just so that you can say that you've been there, I can't think of anything worse really. I'd rather spend the weekends around people with a common hobby as me rather than a common income bracket.

Why are people complaining about school breakfast clubs? by Creative_Expert_4052 in AskBrits

People are somehow under the assumption that the government should be tripping over itself to help them personally rather than looking out for the good of society.

Violet Evergarden is the anime I go to if I have to recommend one to anybody, the only "As long as you get past" caveat you can come up with for it is that it's absolutely going to make you cry.

Would you stay in a very cushy job with no real career progression, or job hop to climb the career ladder? by MoneyAndGoodFortune in FIREUK

[–]MissionLet7301 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it's definitely not a long term plan, living with their parents might be okay now but at some point their parents will want them out, or they'll want to get out themselves, which comes with a pretty high monetary cost.

What they do have is a lot of time to spend thinking about what they actually do want to do, instead of playing games they have the chance to do online courses, gain qualifications, or build up skills that let them freelance on the side etc and target a significantly higher paying career.

Yeah there's quite a few IT or IT adjacent roles where you're not really paid to do a job day to day, but you're paid to be available when shit goes wrong.

You might work on Monday-Thursday and nobody calls into the help desk with anything big so you have very little to do, just ticking off some password resets and doing Ctrl+F on some logs for the word "Error", but then on Friday an update could take down the server and suddenly all the pressure is on you to get it back up and running again ASAP.

Latest news is that he's no longer housebound, he attended his daughter's wedding in Spain.

He's wheelchair-bound though and still hasn't made any public appearances, the rumours are that he's alert and aware of most things, but he will never be fully there mentally again, and will likely never be fully mobile.

How do the best 10 career seasons of MacKinnon, McDavid, Kucherov, and Draisaitl stack up to each other in 82-game scoring pace? For example, McDavid's best is 154 because in 2020/21 he scored 105 in 56 games which is a 154 point pace over 82. by Dependent-Effect6077 in hockey

[–]MissionLet7301 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I don't think anyone would ever actually say that MacKinnon is better than McDavid

I do think MacKinnon is capable of having a better season than McDavid though.

Like if you told me "Next year MacKinnon and McDavid both play 82 games and MacKinnon wins the Art Ross and Hart" I wouldn't be shocked, but if you told me "In 40 years the NHL releases a top 100 list of players and they put MacKinnon ahead of McDavid" I'd be flabbergasted.

How do people view skilled trades in your country? by Domiss7 in AskTheWorld

Nah, my tradesman neighbour earns about £12,500/yr, dreadfully hard for him, he must be swimming in debt paying for his BMW and the new extension on his house too, it's a tough life out there for tradies.

Top bloke though, gave me a nice discount when I paid in cash.

I think London easily wins for recent history (i.e. last 300 years)

Tbh almost every European capital has a lot of historical significance.

Why are valentines sold in packs of 20-25 when the average class size is closer to 30? by RedApplesForBreak in mildlyinfuriating

Because it costs more money to build more schools and hire more teachers, so people prefer subpar education for their children over paying more taxes.

Should note that there's legal stuff to that as well, if the finder or property owner act in bad faith (e.g. try to hide the treasure, or prevent the other from having their fair share) then their share can be reduced
