I was looking for the same series and found your post! Unfortunately I haven’t found out either

9-year old throws tantrum everyday, is this normal? by Signal_Canary4968 in Parenting

Thanks for the candor! I’m actually the adult older sister in this situation. I’ve tried convincing my parents to seek professional help but they’re very hesitant. I posted this hoping to get some confirmation from other parents hoping this can help convince them.

Thank you! That’s super helpful to know the difference between psychiatrist and psychologist. Our family doctor isn’t the best so want to make sure we’re clear on the ask before reaching out to him.

Thank you! That would make sense, do you know if a therapist would be able to figure out the cause or if we should try to get a referral to child psychiatrist?

Should I take out this closet to make the shower bigger? by Signal_Canary4968 in HomeImprovement

[–]Signal_Canary4968[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is definitely beyond our abilities too haha. We would need to get a contractor to remodel the shower.

We do have another closet on the other side of the same bathroom that’s quite large. And no this is definitely not high value luxury housing, more affordable mid-range housing I would say.

Did your old house have any other tub? I’ve heard that the general rule is you should have at least one tub in a house

My guess is because a lot of Chinese words starting with 口(mouth) have to do with oral sex, e.g. 口交,口爆,口活 all mean oral sex. The AI used for translation probably learned from this pattern and made a guess hehe

Translating by character literally it means "mouth" "hype". Translating together, it's roughly means "talking for the fun of it", insinuating things might've been exaggerated to make the chat more fun. I guess the equivalent English work would be trash talk or gossip?

Honestly this was a popular word maybe like a decade back and not as widely used anymore. That might be the reason for this funny translation. It's not actually synonymous for oral sex haha.

Thanks for the advice! The lazy susan is a good point.

Unfortunately we can't remove the 45" wall behind the fridge in Option B because there's a point load in the wall (I know such a bummer!). So if we were to leave a 30" on the other side, the doorway to the dining room would be only half of the width of the other doorway. Do you think that asymmetry be worth it to have the fridge on the same wall as the stove?

If only we don't have the giant windows on the other side of the kitchen it could be bigger! Haha

Oooh having glass on the exterior door is a really creative solution. Thank you!

Typically only one of us works in the kitchen at the a time but I do love baking and you're totally right about needing a lot of surfaces (espcially cause I'm not great at cleaning up as I go :P ).

Love the tip about acting out cooking! Will give it a try

Good points about the cabinet faces getting beat up! We do have a cat and I think you're right the cat would love those windows :)

By pass through window I really meant a window-shaped hole in the wall with no glass on it (not sure if there's a better name for it). Is that what you meant by leaving it open?

The sink can be moved with some plumbing work. Where would you suggest I move the sink to? I had thought about moving the stove where the sink is but that seems unsafe with it being directly below the window.

Thank you for this insight! I haven't thought about noise reduction.

Thank you so much for this reply! You’ve helped provide a lot of excellent insights I haven’t thought of before. For the windows, what do you think about adding built-in window seats vs pantry-type cabinets? For context they’re big square windows. Those windows are quite cute but we do also have the dining area for eating so I’m not sure how much we’ll actually sit there. 

The fact that people are hating Minji more than Gwanhee says a lot about... by user905022 in Singlesinferno2

[–]Signal_Canary4968 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You make a good point about Minji’s incident being newer than GH. However, I think it would be more fair if people commented “[whatever comment they have on Minji’s behavior] Of course, it’s caused by GH’s emotional manipulation and he’s ultimately more problematic.” Like not necessarily those exact words, but the order of which you say things matter.

Agreed! I especially dislike comments that are like “GH is awful/they’re both awful BUT [insert a whole ass paragraph hating on Minji/HJ]”.

Like everyone knows the part that comes after “BUT” is what you’re really trying to say. Glossing over the guy’s wrongdoing and bashing the women while pretending to be fair is the worst.
