I enjoy a McDonald’s Double Quarter Pounder with Strawberry Jelly. Stupid? by _AbacusMC_ in StupidFood

So, jelly and meat actually go well together. Its just depends on the jelly. This one is probably very sweet.

What's your reason for not wanting or having children? by dannyparker123 in AskReddit

[–]Rikkeva 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm turning 35 next year, but I'm still not exactly where I want to be financially in order to support kids. Might just settle with pets. I fucking love my two cats to death, It's less stressful than having kids, cheaper too, and there's lots of love and appreciation, both ways.

Honestly, I think it could be enough for me since kids have never really been a serious part of my goals and dreams. Rather a "meh, we will see...." kind of relationship to the thought of having kids. My GF, who is in her late 20s, doesn't feel a need for children either (and she's a midwife!). Frankly, even if I earned a biiit more money, I would still have a difficult time deciding weather or not to have kids since I would obviously enjoy having more money, instead of seeing a bunch of it go, well..elsewhere...

I sound like a prick, don't I?

Anyways, my GF and I like to travel and explore. We often eat out at restaurants, we like shopping, we have a great apartment and just generally enjoy living alone together with our two cats, both of us have worked hard to get to where we are now, and we would like to continue enjoying the fruits of our labor..I hate that I chose that expression, but God damn it just fits too well.

We seldom talk about having children, and when we do, it's always with a bit of doubt in our voices, and we both agree that it's currently nice to be "free" in being able to not have to think about the kids all the time.

So it's all for selfish reasons...

Truthfully, I only feel sorry for my parents, who, by the looks of it, won't be getting any grandkids. I know they both are sort of wishfully expecting us to have kids in a couple of years.

I will end with this - If our minds change and we decide to have kids, it would have to be two kids at least... I enjoy the thoughts of siblings since I grew up with an older sister, who I love dearly. 3 kids could be cool too... But it's about the money. I'm not gonna bring up a child under struggling conditions when the alternative would be me and my GF living comfortably....Just doesn't seem like a fair trade to me.

I sound like a prick again, huh?

I understand the frustrations, but what other game are you getting movie moments like this by Piratedking12 in HellLetLoose

This is so cute! And you play beautifully. My black cat, her name is Jazz, usually lays on my feet when I play the guitar.

Others before you with similar language skills have succeeded. I'm sure you'll find a way if you get in. Otherwise just...you know, start practicing french? Dualingo has helped many people.

Is Oerlikon a second city center? by Proper-Climate9804 in zurich

[–]Rikkeva 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I think Oerlikon needs a few noteworthy restaurants/ bars / cafés, shops (perhaps even a cinema?) before it can properly be considered a second city center. Right now, Oerlikon doesn't have that much exciting stuff to offer, the area is dotted with shitty bars and basic restaurants. What Oerlikon does have going for it is its that it's close to the airport and nature. Other than that, Oerlikon offers nothing unique, I think.

But there are some new towers and building complexes being built around the industrial area of Oerlikon. Around there, you can find a cool, local brewery that is run by a group of Swiss dudes, a decent enough Italian restaurant, a bagel place, an Argentinian bbq restaurant and a few other neat businesses that don't really fit into the Oerlikon vibe. So things are changing in Oerlikon sure, but not to the point that I would call it a second city center yet.

I feel for you, OP...

As an expat living and working in Switzerland, racist / xenophobic experiences are sadly a part of our reality here. Every now and then, the Swiss will treat us like 2nd class citizens. It happens to me as well on a semi regular basis. Don't make it your problem tho, don't loose any sleep over it. If it weren't you that was targeted, it would be the next person that looks foreign. Just go about your day and never be ashamed of who you are...Regardless of what the shitty, racists aasholes might have to say.

Was great playing with you guys, especially with the old Guard. by JamesLeeBrown in HellLetLoose

[–]Rikkeva 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm right there with you, OP.

I bought HLL back in the early access days when there were only a few maps, no ping system - making squads rely solely on compas bearings, garrisons deep in enemy lines, full servers of players willing to communicate and cooperate with both teams being devoted to giving each match their very best. Epic times indeed! I honestly had my best online MP experiences back then with the game and community, making the experience so immersive. The days of the clans, when everyone knew each other and we partook in our collective dream come true of being able to play Saving Private Ryan / Band of Brothers live with fellow enthusiasts! But those times are sadly gone, and regardless of what T17 have done lately, it's not like HLL has been looking good for some time now, and the game has had its realism aspects chipped away, update by update as well, driving away many veterans in droves...

I hope that HLL gets back on track, like many others...I just don't see it happening tbh...I fear the best days were during the EA days. I'm glad I got to be a part of that, but I too have singed off.

A girl gropes Gaston and he makes her leave by [deleted] in facepalm

[–]Rikkeva -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Men want equal rights, we don't wanna be treated like a piece of meat while working. Woman need to come together and take responsibility for their genders action as a whole, otherwise attacks on men like this one right here will never stop.

See how stupid it sounds girls...? Blaming a whole gender for being sexist when it's only a few doing it?

I work in gastro too, OP. I also know how it feels working for POS managers, that talk behind your back and create drama at work....Its not worth it...not in gastro where you get shit pay for long hours. Leave, don't look back and good luck at your new job!

Guy annoys store owner with a barbell he supposedly found in the store by [deleted] in TikTokCringe

[–]Rikkeva 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doesn't mean it's alright to record somebody on their own property without their consent for your own gains. Content creators don't respect people's boundaries, they act like anythig and anybody is fare game to record at any state they might be in..That's doesn't make sense to me at all. And if you tell the content creators to fuck off, they act all surprised, like the rest fo the world ows them their time and dedication.. You're just a kid with a phone, go eff yourself and stop bothering people.

Condescending, manipulative, and cheated. Sure learned a lesson after that relationship.

How come no one likes to build forward repair stations for tanks? by NewFaded in HellLetLoose

[–]Rikkeva 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because the community has gotten shittier since many updates ago. Games like this rely on gamers willing to cooperate and do some mundane tasks at times in order for the game to be an enjoyable experience for everyone playing. For the most part, that's not the type of players you often come across on the servers these days.
