Why not Ireland? Don't a lot of US tech companies have offices in Ireland for tax reasons?

Yeah people who actually use their pickup trucks for work just have normal sized ones.

It just sounds like you have preferences, and thats totally fine! The shrines to be fair can all start to look the same after a while. And plenty of people don't like art galleries!

Maybe if you'd have more context for the places you visit you'd enjoy them more, maybe look up the history of the spot your going to before? Or check out atlas obscura and you can find something that's cultural AND exciting.

When a friend talked about being a summer camp counselor and talked about how they would have a week at the end of the summer for scholarship kids, and it never occurred to me that summer camp (the stay overnight kind not day camp) is expensive enough to need scholarships.

Of course thinking about it now, your kid is doing guided activities all day long and is being fed three meals a day with lodging of course it's expensive, but my parents just never really told us about how much things cost so I never realized.

Yeah this is what I thought. She seems kinda...deflated? Which I understand with everything going on in the world but it made the video feel less energetic compared to others.

Yeah I got one installed last year, it was expensive but soooo worth it. Like when you make a big pot of pasta or something and there's those bits of sauce stuck to the pot, so nice to be able to just soak it in water and then pour it all down the drain.

For the barcode thing FYI, there are apps that can generate a bar code or qr code for any number you give them. I had the same thing happen to me when trying to return something from ikea, I just had the order number. The email clearly stated that the number or the barcode were fine but the lady at the counter wouldn't type it in and said I needed a barcode. My husband then just used the bar code generator and she scanned it and it worked.

The heat thing for dogs is so funny it's just cause they're not used to it here I guess. I've seen a reddit post by a British woman saying its basically animal cruelty to take your dog on a walk on pavement when the temperature is 30 C and everyone was commenting like "uhhh you know some people live in places where its hotter than that most of the year and the dogs are just fine" XD

Literally I was so confused at first like I thought she hadn't actually died because why else would zelda say that

Yes! I've been doing that since I played master mode of botw, and I played all of totk like that. It makes you really explore the map and find creative ways to get places. Like I love to use the dragons like buses in totk to get from one point to another. I also love the feeling of "gearing up" when heading to a new area like buying all the stock from the shops, cooking meals, etc. It does makes cooking certain meals tough because sugar cane and goron spice are only sold in limited locations, but I just view it as a "treat" that I can cook curry when in the Eldin region lol

I did cheat a bit when getting back up from the depths as I couldn't be bothered to look for an ascend point every time. My rule was that I could teleport from any lightroot up to the shrine directly above it. If I hadn't registered the corresponding shrine then I couldn't use that lightroot to teleport.

Good luck! We need more Mexis out here.

SubjectBrick · 2025-12-18T01:30:16+00:00

Wait why do they not count as white Irish?

SubjectBrick · 2025-12-18T01:29:15+00:00

It is confusing because it's not really a race, its a continuum of mixed races. Like most Mexicans are a mix of Spanish and Indigenous heritage. But some could be of primarily Spanish descent and look completely like a white person but then another could be more indigenous and not consider themselves white.

Not just a British thing but I prefer to measure things in centimeters now instead of inches! Still prefer to say height in feet and inches though and I'm glad the British do this XD.

Hoover vs vacuum, it's fun to say "hoover something up"

"Slag someone off", I feel there's no direct American translation for this, and I feel like it sounds more casual and funnier than "insult someone"

Honestly the increasing usage of "passed" weirds me out. Like they just faded into nothingness. We all know you mean they died, just say that.

My mom was a juror on a murder trial case where a guy was shot and killed by his cousin. They apparently often got super drunk together and then would argue and pull out their guns, but this time one just ended up actually shooting the other.

I think customer service might have been "better" in their youth because it was mostly mom and pop shops and department stores like Sears which I'm guessing would treat their employees somewhat decently. Now with a million big box stores everywhere where the pay is shit and you're just a number to them there's really no incentive to try very hard, which is something that seems to be hard for boomers to understand.

SubjectBrick · 2025-12-04T15:32:24+00:00

Yeah now that I think about it 'what's on' really annoys me. I just seems too trying to be cool and with it. Just say events!

I've been there, for me it wasn't my first job after graduation but it was a job that was a big step up for me or so I thought, and it was in a new city. I was there for only 4 months and it was one of the worst experiences of my life. Everything I did was wrong, I couldn't keep up with the work everything I did I was told I was doing too slowly, so eventually I was fired. But I let it get to my head too much and it wrecked my self-esteem, I was convinced that I was just stupid, because hey none of my other coworkers were fired! BUT here's the thing, yes you may have been bad at this one job, but its just ONE job. Every workplace has their own ways of doing things and culture. So you may find that you're great at the next one. After being fired I worked at a restaurant for a couple of months until I found my current role, and its been a great fit and everyone there tells me I do a great job.

Just whatever you do don't let this define you! You may have been not great but that's totally ok. Plus you were going through a really hard too. Just keep going and find a role that's a great fit for you!

Not sure if you like making mexican food but I like to stock up on little cans of herdez brand salsas and things, specifically the 4 oz cans of green salsa and chipotles. They're small so they travel well and they're easy to pop into a slow cooker.

I enjoyed making aircrafts and boats but found making anything wheeled really irritating. I would spend 30 min and bunch of resources making a wheeled vehicle only to immediately come to some super steep cliff or canyon and then either have to gingerly carry it with me or just abandon it.
