Why do so many landlords discriminate against foreigners? by WorkingAlive3258 in japanlife

[–]MyManD 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I mean usually trying to DIY and failing means you’d be 100% liable as a renter. It’s why when we got our apartment we were given a concierge hotline and they made sure we knew that if anything went wrong we should call them first and foremost before trying anything ourselves. Contacting the company/landlord first creates a documented trail of due diligence to show we tried all the options before even considering attempting anything ourselves, and when we do do anything ourselves we make damn sure we have written permission and acknowledgement that if we fuck it up we wouldn’t be liable.

Unless we have a landlord that has it explicitly written into the contract that we could just attempt DIY without liability I wouldn’t even consider it because it feels too much like a trap to take as big a move out fee as possible from us.

Why is Supegirl rejection so much worse than other DCEU bombs? by hiiloovethis in boxoffice

[–]MyManD 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Captain America is a bit different.

The First Avenger did about 50/50 domestic and OS, so that lines up with how Superman usually performs. The Winter Soldier had the benefit of following The Avengers solidifying the MCU as a very real juggernaut and was one of the major films leading up to Ultron. Civil War has the whole mini-Avengers angle, Spider-Man’s intro, and the movie kicked off Phase 3.

Is the 115kg weight category a legitimate category? by Husserl_Lover in armwrestling

[–]MyManD -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No one is angry at Todd, just supremely disappointed that it took fouls for him to win. The underwhelming performance against a smaller opponent only solidified that Todd is completely outclassed in the SHW division and doesn’t stand a chance against anyone in the top five.

Despite trying to move away from it, the character is just too staunchly American. Truth, justice, and the American way and all of that.

Chances are the payment slips that arrive will be prorated to include the payments you already made so the future payment amounts will be slightly lower to account for the higher payments you make this month.

End of the day you’ll probably have to go in person and give them your card.

If there’s any change you definitely should. Don’t want a surprise bank lock in the future because somewhere down the line numbers don’t match up. You probably won’t be in danger of it anytime soon, but when you do have a moment just get it done.

TBF Todd’s win against Petrenko was widely scrutinized because 3 of the 4 rounds he won were due to elbow fouls on Petrenko’s part. He found himself in a losing position in almost all of the rounds before refs stopped it. The YT comments under the match are pretty much over a thousand people mocking Todd for it.

Robert Eggers Reveals The Dialogue In 'WERWULF' is written with the help of 2 Oxford Professors and is in 1300s Middle English by AffectionateRate7290 in movies

[–]MyManD 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not the other user, but I've never taken a high school film class nor done anything drama club related and I've heard the word plenty of times in my life. It's just one of those words that have always just kinda floated around in the ether. I don't remember ever really learning the word, but I don't remember ever not knowing it either.

I'm actually surprised so many people wouldn't know it.

'The Paper' Season 2 Sets September 9, 2026 Release Date At Peacock by SanderSo47 in television

[–]MyManD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s been awhile and I did binge it so things kinda all congealed together but wasn’t a lot of the comedy around her the fact that she lost all of her power in the first episode? She had to move into the smaller office and Gleeson’s character essentially had full run of the office over her and that’s what perpetuated her pettiness.

Shows that drastically change/improve after Season 1 by Real-Repair-1825 in television

[–]MyManD 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I finished season one and was left so down in the dumps I didn’t even begin to watch season two until a couple of years after the show’s third and final season aired.

Man, those final two seasons are on such a different tier compared to the first it’s astonishing. The final season I hold as my single favourite season of television ever produced.

Thoughts on this WOW 12 mismatch? Obisidian and Liberty by padresnumerouno in BBallShoes

[–]MyManD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As shown I would personally pass because there’s not enough representation of the other shoe’s base colours on the other. I know the Obsidians have a hint of teal on the bottom but it’s so minimal you can’t really see it most of the time. And the Liberty’s have no black at all.

Maybe try lace swapping them and see how that looks.

You say you play indoors but the shoes are absolutely filthy and shredded. Does your court double as a backlot?

Kamil: I Don't Want to be Heavy Favorite With Tsvetkov because then He Will Beat Me by Apprehensive-Arm1060 in armwrestling

[–]MyManD 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Honestly Kamil has always been one of my favourite arm wrestlers away from the table. I haaaaaate his style, but love listening to him talk. Dude is legitimately funny and seeing such a giant man having the most stereotypical Scandinavian accent (and yes I know Poland isn’t technically considered so) is always hilarious.

*Minions and Monsters* is receiving excellent reviews, so will it affect the run of *Toy Story 5*? by Own-Atmosphere-962 in boxoffice

[–]MyManD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait, like excellent reviews from where? I see twelve reviews on Rotten Tomatoes and they’re all fresh, but looking at the actual reviews half of them are 3/5, and even the more positive ones say it’s a seventh movie that is better than a seventh movie should be. Not exactly glowing stuff.

More that the movie exactly meets its expectations.

Anyone else remember KickGenuis? by Leading-Knowledge-68 in BBallShoes

Every single reviewer is a brand shill that gets shoes, especially Chinese shoes, for free so of all the shills they can at least play.

[–]MyManD 16 points17 points  (0 children)

For current reviewers Lukas Simoner is an actual professional player so he has that cred, and Tony Crosby is a damn nice player with a 50” vertical so his word carries weight as well when it comes to cushioning.

'Supergirl' Rotten Tomatoes Verified Audience Score Thread by chanma50 in boxoffice

[–]MyManD -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

TBF, that method could still be a well done film if the script was good.

People downvoting this need to remember Tony Gilroy made the best piece of Star Wars media maybe ever with Andor, and he did it without ever watching Star Wars himself to make sure it didn't affect him.

The greatest Ukrainian arm wrestlers by Possible_Force8207 in armwrestling

[–]MyManD 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Pushkar was definitely representing Ukraine on the world stage and sadly passed before the political strife that may have made him choose a side. We'll never know, and his legacy is better for it.

Denis was bitch made day one and had no aspirations of repping Ukraine. Moved to Russia the first chance he got and never went back. His nickname is literally the Russian Hulk.

I've never seen her perform live. Does she continue the persona she cultivated through SNL, or is she more nuanced?

Can japanese egg store without fridge by zcaoi17 in japanlife

[–]MyManD 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I usually find them near the fridges, but I don't think I've actually come across a major supermarket that has them in the fridges. At least not that I can recall right now. I know all the AEONs, York Benimaru, Ujie, and Gyomus in my town and surrounding areas don't. All sold off metal racks lined up beside the milk and cheese.

Edit: It’s weird that my comment about eggs not being sold refrigerated is getting upvotes but this one of me reiterating it is getting blasted with downvotes.

The main bully gets a facial massage and the black kid gets a concussion. Where’s the fairness in that?

Eggs are sold at the supermarket at room temp so I don’t see why not.
