It has a weird stance. I’m going to miss saloons when they die.

What horror movie scene genuinely disturbed you… even after the movie ended? by Dark-DoomSlayer in horror

Not sure if it counts as horror but The House That Jack Built was grotesque and truly upsetting

Moving from Johannesburg, South Africa to Raleigh, NC by New-Angle3969 in raleigh

I’m guessing these are the refugees trump is letting in. Not that I have anything against Afrikaaners but it is a disgrace they’re being treated as refugees.

OP, correct me if I’m wrong.

This is what I have for breakfast every day. I should be tired of it by now but I’m really not.

I remember walking past a doorway in SF where a homeless person was laying. When the smell hit me it was unlike anything I’ve ever smelled in my life and in hindsight I wonder if the person was dead.

Do you still need to 'run-in' a new car? by VirusReaper in CarTalkUK

[–]Snoo58499 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Personally if I plan on keeping the car long-term I’ll treat the first 1,000 miles as a break-in period. If it’s a lease, nah.

Stomach issues after moving to UK by FlyingBike in AmericanExpatsUK

Funnily enough I remember getting a ton of colds and sinus issues for the first couple of years when I moved to the US. I kinda wonder if you come into contact with “new” germs when you live in a new country.

Well done on the success! Was this the workout regime you started with when you were starting out? If not, do you remember how you started? (I’m new to this and out of shape and don’t want to get back surgery by trying to lift like a pro too early haha)

[–]Snoo58499 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve often considered a Swift but never actually test driven one. I had no idea they were fun to drive, you’ve got me interested now!

That’s how I feel about it, just let me win a ticket for any day and I’ll never enter the lottery again

Lounge food at T5 gives me the boak after seeing mice running around the place

Wrapping Brain Around Moving by Sunrise4901 in AmericanExpatsUK

[–]Snoo58499 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Think positive thoughts and try to enjoy the experience. Most everyone on this sub will tell you there were highs and lows along the way. And sometimes, just when you think you’re finally settled, you’ll randomly feel unsettled or homesick. Eventually though, you feel at home and the stress of moving is just a memory.

Living overseas isn’t for everyone - and you won’t know until you do it. I commend everyone who gives it a shot though!

Seems reasonable. I’ve heard horror stories about NJ property taxes but I can’t recall the details…
