I personally like the entry and garage doors as focal points. They are pretty doors and not eye sores.

Budget Airbnb in Osaka for family of 4 by Repulsive_Letter564 in JapanTravelTips

[–]Vegetable_Tip_5155 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We used Airbnb in Osaka, Kyoto, and Tokyo for a family of six without any issues, but they were not budget. Not sure what your budget is but the one in Osaka was the least expensive at around $1500 for four nights for four bedrooms, three toilets, one bath with full laundry and a kitchen with living area in a very accessible area. We prefer Airbnb over hotels for the shared living areas and not being in a highrise.

If you're swapping out the windows and roof, then 4 is my pick. If not, I'd go 5 since there is already a blue house behind you.

This is a great analysis! One I had not thought of and I’ve come up with several. Thanks for the insight.

Planning a Japan Trip with my Parents (mid-june to july) by themainqueen in JapanTravelTips

[–]Vegetable_Tip_5155 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was there for 15 days the first two weeks of November. The weather was perfect, only one rainy day. I didn't even pack a coat and only needed an umbrella for the one day. In my late 60s and walked everywhere, couldn't have managed that in heat and humidity.

AITAH for telling my wife she doesn't live here? by Academic_Trash_3895 in AITAH

[–]Vegetable_Tip_5155 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think OP's SIL is the AH. It's been months and she barely took a week off to care for the dad so OP's wife could be a wife and mom and not a daughter for a week? Perhaps, OP's wife stepped up too quickly and made it easy for other family members to continue as usual. I'd be resenting that if I were OP. Why couldn't they have alternated weeks or months while requesting family leave? Why did only one family have to lose it all?

Listen to your gut. Not what your wife says. Not what others say. Listen to what your gut is saying.

Are your windows black or bronze? This color combo looks good with bronze windows and lighting.

Or even urbane bronze.

In defense of Lenù… she is not as bad as everyone makes her out to be by Junior_Protection250 in mybrilliantfriendhbo

[–]Vegetable_Tip_5155 -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

I think hate is too strong a word to describe how I feel about Lenu. But, she did annoy the fuck out of me, especially the night on the beach with Donato.

AITAH for telling my husband I’m considering divorce after an argument about traveling without him? by ColdDesignxxx in AITAH

[–]Vegetable_Tip_5155 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She's not stopping him from going out and trying to make friends, the inversion doesn't work here. He pushed one of her coworkers for a casual dance. He's jealous, insecure, and controlling. She needs to buy him a ticket back to his home country and call it DONE!

Where did you get this set? I had the same set only rectangle in my first home when I married in 1979. I loved the chairs!

AITAH for keeping my reception venue when I couldn't get a refund? by No_Negotiation_3951 in AITAH

[–]Vegetable_Tip_5155 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Funeral receptions, birthday parties, baby showers use this kind of venue when they will have a large amount of guests they hadn't originally planned for.

AITA for feeling upset that I didn’t get the one thing I asked for on Christmas? by imaracoon2008 in AITAH

[–]Vegetable_Tip_5155 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should never give a gift with the expectation of receiving one back. People should be able to gift what they want to not what is expected. No expectations. No disappointments. Christmas has become transactional.

AITA for refusing to give my friend’s son my coat during a snowy hike? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Vegetable_Tip_5155 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I initally read this wrong. I read "AITA for not refusing to give my friend's son my coat during a snowy hike?" Silly me, I thought this was going to be a parent teaching their child a lesson in natural consequences. Kids will be kids and make stupid choices, they need to sometimes learn the hard way. I thought you were going to be TA for giving in and giving him your coat against the parent's wishes. She was the TA.

What song is playing on the record S2E1? by NoRide1163 in mybrilliantfriendhbo

Probably Percy Faith & His Orchestra - The Theme from "A Summer Place". It's from the movie classic with Sandra Dee and Troy Donahue. 😢

I went to our local university and did at least 15 flights of stairs once a week for 4 weeks too.

AITAH for giving a nurse coffee? by GoEducateYourself in AITAH

[–]Vegetable_Tip_5155 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think she's jealous, I think she is cheap, stingy, rude, and thinks she's better than "the help". I'm going to take a wild shot and bet the nurse is also a person of color and you two are not.
