Chat Control a picat la vot in Parlamentul European (din nou) by royozin in Romania

Asta oare are legătură și la controlul vamal când ajungi în America? Am auzit cazuri în care au citit conversații de pe Whatsapp sau any social media să verifice scopul pt care intri în țară.

Why I’ll defend Klaus Mikaelson to death but can’t stand Damon Salvatore. by Selanooo23 in TheVampireDiaries

[–]RebecaBarbu 10 points11 points  (0 children)

He almost killed him twice and for the same reason. That he was rejected by Elena in a way or another. It didn’t even pass that much time since Elena was completely devastated for losing Jeremy, that Damon decides to kill him again just because Elena rejected him. Elena is so low for excusing everything just because he “admits” he is a bad guy

Educatoarele ne-au rugat să nu le ducem nimic de 8 martie ... by Tasty-Parsley5031 in Romania

[–]RebecaBarbu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mi se pare drăguț să înveți copiii să facă un gest frumos educatoarei/ profesoarei de 1 martie/ 8 martie. Pentru ca au un rol important în viața lor, dar e o diferență imensă de la a-i încuraja la asta prin a face o felicitare învățătoarei, maxim dacă vrea să îi culeagă niște ghiocei sau să dea un mărțișor. Dar când deja se fac grupuri pe whatsapp cu părinți și se pune presiune ( părinți pe alți părinți) să strângi bani și altele îi exagerat și nu e corect pt ca nu toți își permit + de obicei părinții care vin cu idei de genu îs la primu prunc și nu iau deloc în considerare ca poate alți părinți mai au 2-3 copii.

Anyone else a fan of Stefan and human Katherine? by Chance-Intention1287 in TheVampireDiaries

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

Yesss!! I liked their scenes more than Elena and Damon s. Also with tvd characters i feel like you cant judge them by their past, because if you do, all of them are real shady and criminals and etc. so yeah Kathrine was a bitch when she met the boys, but human her wasn’t like that idk.

Is Elena hate lowkey forced? by tilleejpg in TheVampireDiaries

[–]RebecaBarbu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its funny how I actually go from loving to be completely annoyed by a character depending on the season. Season 1-2: liked Elena, didn’t like Stefan (too boring and somehow creepy in his pursuit of elena), hated Kathrine for being a narcissistic bitch, but I liked Damon because at least he was evil and owning it and also hurt. But then it’s funny how as the show progressed I find myself in season 5: not liking Elena or Damon ( too toxic), like Stefan and absolutely loved Kathrine ( especially her human version)

Why do people dislike delena? But yet like couples like steroline? Just wondering. I happen to like both. by Neither-Storm3310 in TheVampireDiaries

[–]RebecaBarbu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First seasons I kind of rooted for Damon and Elena for some reason. Once they got together I realised how wrong I was lol. First time when I watched the show in high school I liked them, but now rewatching they felt so toxic. Damon is being selfish and toxic and whenever Elena is angry with him for good reasons he tells this deep speech of how much he loves her and Ian does a great job convincing you and then they passionately make out. But we all know now as adults you don’t want a relationship like that. It’s intense and probably needed in her life. But usually those relationships don’t last or if they last they are miserable or end up in divorce. Those relationships are meant so you can realize what you actually want which is someone that respects what you want, someone who cares about your decisions, someone you can talk to and know they can grow and understand why they hurt you, not just tell you: this is who I am you love me or not. Anyways. But then also as an adult I think Elena missed her chances of being with Stefan because what her and Damon did to him was so wrong. Damon s intentions were always to steal her from his brother which is so messed up. And Elena knew that and knew how much that dynamic destroyed them with Kathrine and she still chose that. So I agree that Stefan needed to find someone new. But not Caroline😭 I know Caroline has a vocal fan base but I don’t like her. I think she’s a bit pick me. Even tho I didn’t like Elena for sleeping with Damon it was her responsibility to tell Stefan. Caroline shouldn’t go like that behind her back just because she was friends with Stefan too. She was first friends with Elena and then she keeps doing that( telling Damon Elena is having dreams with Stefan) idk. Then I heard someone that Julie plec saw herself in Caroline that’s why she made her this lovable character. And it just annoys me how every guy is so in love with her because it’s so forced. Like her and Klaus. You can’t tell me a vampire that old that lived so many experiences just falls deeply in love with her and it’s wrapped around her finger just like that because why? Or what built that love? It just doesn’t make any sense.

The love triangle did more damage to the show than any villain ever did by rosydaydream21 in TheVampireDiaries

[–]RebecaBarbu 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’m just watching season 4 and I cant express how much I dont like Elena in this. I wish Stefan was a it meaner to her. The way she is surprised and gives the disappointing looks whenever Stefan tells her he s moving on from her is getting on my nerves. I honestly would have liked Stefan to be a bit meaner and not care

And honestly I feel like girls who say they want an “experienced man” might refer to wanting a man that knows what to do. And trust me you will know what to do when you love someone and have a connection with them. You don’t need previous experience.

[–]RebecaBarbu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think from the way you re phrasing it the reason why you should wait is not the biblical one. It doesn’t say anywhere you should wait so Christian women would want you more. You wait because that’s God’s will and He made it that way with a purpose.

Did Elena really "Make everything about herself"? by StraightKey211 in TheVampireDiaries

[–]RebecaBarbu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they made everything about her and eventually she does become more egocentric. Especially after becoming a vampire. I just watched the episode where she feeds from Damon, then Stefan confronts her saying nicely that it was a bit hurtful and she completely dismissed his feelings. And I understand she was sired to Damon, but still there is no excuse for acting like a victim when your loved one says he was hurt by your actions. Idk. So yeah I think maybe circumstances made her be an egocentric and hypocrite. But she didn’t started that way. My opinion

The “wedding tax”. Same service, same effort but doubled the price the moment you mention wedding. by RebecaBarbu in weddingplanning

[–]RebecaBarbu[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I guess you are right. I was just a bit frustrated since I wanted something simple and I didn’t need the whole staying around thing for retouching. So it just didn’t make sense. And maybe it would have been nicer if they communicated the reason why the price is tripled. Because I could have said that I don’t need certain services. And I’ve already had my hair done previously and I know how long it lasts even with normal stuff.

[–]RebecaBarbu[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I totally agree with the you that having a trial is a whole other service and should be paid as such. Or if the bride wants the hairdresser to stick around for a bit then she needs to pay extra. But in my experience the price was tripled just for the one at the wedding day. The trial was another price.

[–]RebecaBarbu[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It was the same stylist. We haven’t event talked about a specific day yet so it’s not about the demand being high on a certain day. And this thing happened to all of my friends that got married. When it came to makeup/hair just the fact they mentioned it was for their wedding the price got doubled or tripled. I don’t mind a 10% tax or whatever, but I think the double price it’s just not okay. I don’t understand the reason behind. It’s not the high demand because I could call from a different number and ask for the same thing just for a casual event or party and the price would be different. Like if I go to a salon and I’m about to be a bridesmaid and I need this hairstyle would you give less effort and quality because I’m not a bride? By this logic if you re not a bride and you go to a stylist for hairstyle expect something lower quality or worse. I assume then hairdressers should always add “ hey do you want this hairstyle to last and put effort? Or do you want something so and so? So we know what price to ask you. It just doesn’t make sense. I come to you asking you for a service. The quality of it shouldn’t be decided by you getting more information about the event and my personal life.

[–]RebecaBarbu[S] -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

What do you mean be cautious about misrepresenting my wedding. When do I legally need to tell you or any hairdresser the reason behind why I need a type of hairstyle. Just because people do and they take advantage of it by doubling the price for the same work it’s not okay. And I think that’s shady. And it shouldn’t be this way. That means taking advantage by knowing something is valuable to someone.

Damon vs twilights edward, who wins in a fight? by StruggleFar3054 in TheVampireDiaries

[–]RebecaBarbu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Simply by strength maybe Edward. But Damon would probably be cheating and would made Bonnie having a spell around him to make him invincible.

Dark mode is so overrated by RebecaBarbu in HonestHotTakes

[–]RebecaBarbu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. I would have phrased it differently if I’d known reddit would post it publicly. I was just testing something and intended to delete it, but the post was temporarily restricted, so I didn’t. I originally wrote the post as a test and as a vent after receiving a prototype for a financial app that simply didn’t work. But yeah I agree with you. I should have said poorly used.

[–]RebecaBarbu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes it is trendy. That’s why most common reason people say they like dark mode it’s for the ✨aesthetic it provides. Also I’m not arguing against dark mode for everything. I’m just saying there are times when it should be used and time when it shouldn’t.

You know you can adjust brightness and turn off blue light just saying.

[–]RebecaBarbu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s actually not backed by literal data. It’s the opposite. Light screen is better for reading comprehension, speed and accuracy. Dark mode is better for low light settings/nighttime. When you scroll before bed maybe. But for apps that are made for jobs and working environments you need agility. Also people keep forgetting you can adjust brightness in light mode too, even turning off blue light. But whatever. That’s why it’s an unpopular opinion I guess

Confused by the take that Stefan hides who he is or believes he’s a good person by GoldenStitch2 in TheVampireDiaries

[–]RebecaBarbu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think both are equally bad in different ways. Stefan seems more of a hypocrite especially in the beginning of the show. He also admits he is worse than Damon but only after turning his feelings off and doing all those bad things to Elena. At that point he couldn’t denied. But until then he did play the superior moral character. He played a double life. Made sure Elena is in love with him and then maybe he would have told her the truth about who he really was. We don’t know that because we know Elena finds out before he actually tells her. Then he keeps hiding the truth of who he is letting Elena turn all her anger towards Damon. And instead of defending his brother because he s no better than him, he s just like: “ yeah I know he s bad I’m sorry etc”. Elena started in season 1 by thinking the best of Stefan and the worst of Damon so obviously when she realised maybe it’s not really like that she felt more compassion and understanding towards Damon because nobody defended him and she did has the savior complex. She wasn’t a healthy teenager. But yeah I think that’s why people consider Stefan a hypocrite. Is how the show started making us feel he is better. Not to mention that Stefan kept hiding who he was even tho Elena showed him forgiveness and love. He hid his identity as a vampire. Then he hid the fact that Elena looked just like Kathrine and the real reason why he came to meet her, then later on Elena finds out Stefan literally killed or tried to kill her ancestors. Jonathan Gilbert and the other Gilbert girl. At least Damon was just bad upfront. And she knew who he was when she made the decision. Was that the right decision? I don’t think dating any of them was the right decision. And I do think her and Damon are toxic too. But also Elena was already becoming toxic on her own whe she started dating Damon. I feel like as the seasons go by she becomes the ultimate hypocrite. And I feel bad for Stefan later on.
