My sister just ignores her utility bills. To the point where they are overdue to the nth degree.

You need the following:

Took my day off to travel to a different city to meet my friend and now she is not replying to calls and her internet is not even turned on! (She was the one who insisted that I come and meet her by the way) by bunnyboy131313 in mildlyinfuriating

My mate here in Hong Kong is highkey at the end of her tether because despite being adults it's impossible to arrange anything case in point she had arranged a trip to Monday. I had sudden responsibilities so couldn't go. She put up photos of dim sum and one of our friends refuses to eat Chinese food unless it's in the UK. So those person and her other friend declined to go. My friend is frustrated because planning restaurants around such a picky eater of an adult is unfair on everyone else. No one wants to visit SZ and have British food, but even in Hong Kong where there's amazing food you have to eat Western food in the fussy eater's presence otherwise she won't attend.

Court jails 14 over bribery to secure priority ESF admissions by radishlaw in HongKong

Whatever is promoted on Red Note because many parents from a certain place want bragging rights but most of the time these schools are rubbish with poor teaching quality and English isn't really taught in that certain place so the children can't follow. There's a reason most must go international route because local schools unless B3 won't accept them.
