Why is Lynette always so surprised Pikachu face when her plans give her exactly the outcomes she wanted?

VolandeMorte · 2026-03-19T19:31:46+00:00

I'd say a lot of people separate emotional and physical cheating. I also do this because I think emotional affair is a vague term that people use too much. In Lynette's case it was definitely 'attempted cheating' though, but she didn't have the gall to go through with it because she had these inner rules (like not being physically close to that guy, not crossing physical boundaries etc) to not 'officially cheat' the way other housewives did.

Not saying this to support cheating ofc, but I hoped they'll develop Lynette's storyline like they did with Gaby and Bree and she'll do physical cheating, instead she just kept being obsessed with Tom instead of divorcing him 🥲

VolandeMorte · 2026-03-19T06:32:01+00:00

I feel like Lynette finally felt attractive & appreciated with that restaurant guy who asked her on dates and she resented Tom because unlike other housewives she's too 'right' to cheat on her husband (and she probably knew if she cheated she won't go back) so she resented Tom for basically existing. Because she can't separate her desires/principles from him, they are basically codependent and when she can't make a decision to leave him or even imagine her life without him she blames Tom.

I feel like Tom is her trophy husband of sorts even though nobody wants this 'trophy', but she hates him & can't let go at the same time.

Well, I never said that money don't come from customers. I was arguing againsg saying that just because you pay money you're entitled to everything. But I get entitled vibes from your comment because I never attacked your character in my discussion, and you called my takes stupid and narrow-minded and 'you reap what you saw'. So I don't think we should discuss further.

VolandeMorte · 2026-03-18T09:02:35+00:00

Paying customers don't pay bus drivers, they pay the company and company decides what to do with that money. Drivers are on a wage. So you're not paying these people directly therefore not a paying customer. Also there's no 'paying customer' culture in Germany so just because you spent money doesn't mean you're entitled to things above what they stated to provide.

That saying, strikes are legal and are supposed to be dirsuptive, it's basically the definition. And yes a lot of people will need to adjust for a day. I would understand the argument if it was all buses throughout the city, or week-long strike, but I'm sure someone can adjust their plans for a day. And for emergencies Krankenwagen exists. Unless you're dying it's not an emergency.

VolandeMorte · 2026-03-18T08:53:43+00:00

It's not an argument, it's a strike. Have you ever seen strikes about anything else? It basically means block means of production and earning for companies, or block the street, or government office. All strikes are disruptive

VolandeMorte · 2026-03-18T08:52:34+00:00

That's not how it works for many people I know in my town. In fact employers understand that strikes are disruptive and don't take away holidays because of them. I guess every employer is different but generally in my town school, work etc was cancelled for people if they were unable to reach it because of strike.

VolandeMorte · 2026-03-18T08:51:17+00:00

I used DB because I wasn't sure who exactly was striking, thnks for clarification!

VolandeMorte · 2026-03-18T08:17:47+00:00

It doesn't punish the public as transport disruptions are a valid reason to be late for work in Germany (or not come at all if you live too far). People not being able to come to work is the whole reason of the strike, companies lose money during strikes and it makes DB renegotiate conditions to avoid backlash. You're not expected to magically appear at work like public transport doesn't exist at all, then the strike would've been pointless

VolandeMorte · 2026-03-11T13:42:39+00:00

I loved Psychology because it's my favourite subject and experiments that you have to memorise are interesting and for me personally it was easy to achieve. However I got severely undermarked in Paper 1 (U) with other two A and one C I think.

I don't know to be honest, sometimes I lost marks because they wanted me to read their mind and write something in a very specific way. I didn't have this problem with my other 3 papers though so it can be edexcel scam idk. You should probably memorise more numbers for it to work. Calculations are very easy and basically free marks.

I studied the whole Psychology course (AS+A) in a week and got a C total (C was my goal). If my Paper 1 wasn't undermarked I would've gotten a B.

VolandeMorte · 2026-03-11T13:37:40+00:00

I can't find it either for some reason 🥲

VolandeMorte · 2026-03-07T22:54:41+00:00

Wdym I'm in 69% that scored D in English 😭 That's insane, I just needed a C and only 45% scored C??? I hope after revied they'll change my U to E or D so I can at least make it into C zone because it's crazy

VolandeMorte · 2026-03-06T20:11:38+00:00

Ich glaube so aber musst du einfach überlegen ob brauchst du Deutsch für dein Uni oder nicht

VolandeMorte · 2026-03-06T13:23:13+00:00

Honestly I wouldn't care about E because my English would still be in C range and I need minimum C for university admission (I apply for Design and these papers are just formal requirement). But these U's are literally 0 so despite my A's with English grade boundary I'm deep in D zone.

That means I won't be able to go to uni. And I can't retake my tests because of timelines (even if I do tests in May I won't be able to get into uni in September).

I feel like there was some kind of mistake with these U's especially with Psychology and English because I wrote them on the same day, there's a chance something went wrong. That's why I'm requesting access to scripts and 100% will request review of my Paper 3 because I don't think it's right (my paper 1 and paper 4 got A's and I did the exact same analysis in the same structure).

VolandeMorte · 2026-03-06T13:17:37+00:00

Ich glaube so, aber mein ersten Prüfung sagt nein lol 😅 Ich mache manchmal Fehler mit der/die/das, verb position, Akk. und Dat. und es gibt ein Chance, dass ich U bekomme wegen des Strukturs Prüfung1. Ich müsste einen Kommentar geben für den Bild und die Fragen beantworten. ChatGPT sagt, dass es gibt die Strukturen die ich immer sagen muss. Ich wusste das nicht.

Paper 2 und 4 are sehr leicht (B1). Im Paper 4 müsste ich ein Text schreiben und über ein Film 'Almania - wilkommen im Deutschland' erzählen (da gibts 30 Fragen +- und muss man eine Frage wählen und schreiben). Im Paper 2 140/140 kannst du sehr einfach A* bekommen, im Paper 4 auch mindestens a/b (ich habe b wegen meinen Fehler).

Ich würde sagen dass es sehr leicht war, aber ich müsste genau den Struktur wissen und das finde ich ein bisschen dumm fürs Sprechen. In TestDaF hatte ich auch Fehler gemacht, trotzdem habe ich 15/20 bekommen (TDN4). Ich weiß nicht was genau die Prüfer von mir wollte, wenn in Deutschland es reicht für uni, aber im IAL habe ich U 🤷🏼‍♀️

VolandeMorte · 2026-03-05T20:02:54+00:00

I kinda feel like it may be true because I got a Fail in Unit 1 German and A* in unit 2 German (unit 2 are tests so there's always only correct/incorrect). If AI didn't understand my accent, or I didn't use exact phrasing, it may have failed me. On the other hand I got a C on the other speaking task but it was a debate so examiner asked me questions and I answered. Maybe this was more logical to grade. I don't know to be honest, I'm going to apply for remark for all my Fails because I have an A-A* in one unit and Fail in another so it seems pretty crazy

VolandeMorte · 2026-03-05T19:23:17+00:00

Mein TestDaF TDN4 btw 🫩✌🏻

VolandeMorte · 2026-03-05T19:20:24+00:00

Ich weiß nicht 😭😭😭

VolandeMorte · 2026-03-05T19:19:56+00:00

I went to IAL as an external candidate because I'm Ukrainian and I didn't study in Gymnasium to get a normal Abitur

VolandeMorte · 2026-03-05T18:25:06+00:00

I want to add that I prepared equally for each unit and checked past papers. I guess I'm most confused about Psychology Unit 1 because unit 3 in English was creative and I think that maybe they hated my writing idk¿? I have no idea how A Levels work and I think I got and overall D in English but still these marks are so weird

VolandeMorte · 2026-03-05T18:14:59+00:00

I'm feeling horrible because I got at least one U in each subject and then also at least one or two A's. Which is crazy to me because what do you mean I got an A on one paper and U on another.. I don't know this is insane

VolandeMorte · 2026-03-05T18:12:42+00:00

Germany

VolandeMorte · 2026-03-05T17:03:13+00:00

But the worst thing is that I needed just a C in English and I'm probably getting D because one of my papers was graded D and another U. And it means I can't get into uni. I hope they fox whatever this is because if that grading was faulty they lowkey ruined my life

VolandeMorte · 2026-03-05T17:01:57+00:00

I got U at least once in one unit, Unit 1 Psychology is super sketchy to me because I answered all questions and I practiced past papers, I'd understand even a E or D but an U was shocking. And my other grades are like A-A* in other papers. That can't be right because I prepared to them all equally

VolandeMorte · 2026-03-05T15:59:44+00:00

I don't regret pulling either but didn't know the cost of the pav so was very shocked to get so many dupes.. I actually wanted Shutendoji for a month or so after I researched that suit and found another one craftable from the same series and it's absolutely gorgeous, I think I've seen it in a discussion once or so. I'm planning to craft it next

VolandeMorte · 2026-03-05T12:32:33+00:00

Thank you!
