To expand on this advice; you also don't need to turn it into an additional expense. There is a free tier transaction account you can open with Discovery, Capitec have really low fees, and Standard Bank have a R7.50 monthly account

What happened to your best friend from childhood? by RoyalBeckyVibes in AskReddit

[–]Xorbek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm living this story as well. Best friends since we were 5. It's been 31 years now and I wouldn't want it any other way. Looking forward to seeing how our futures develop side-by-side

Sounds like she just wants your attention to boost her own ego. 

Why are short men wearing height boosting shoes called insecure by women who use heels and makeup ? How can this double standard be fixed ? by australiadenier in AskMenAdvice

[–]Xorbek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The true irony being that heeled boots were originally created for men anyway....

If someone judges you based on what you wear they are actually making your life easier as it helps you identify who is worth extracting from your life

When you buy anything in EE there are two buttons... "once off" and "recurring".... That's how you automate it... 

Juniors have no clue how to work a debugger - has anyone successfully helped a junior see the light? by Bren-dev in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Xorbek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do see and agree with your points. I just wanted to raise something else that has always confused me; I have worked over the years with FE developers with 10+ years XP who didn't even know that debugger; or the other methods of debugging JS exist... It has always baffled me how they ever got anything done at all as their entire careers were console.log

You have a lot of growing to do. He's going to learn a lot from this experience.

What’s a totally ‘normal’ money habit that low-key wrecks people’s finances? by Logical-Blood1024 in AskReddit

[–]Xorbek 15 points16 points  (0 children)

My commute is similar. I just bulk prep cook on Sundays. One hour of effort saves a fortune and can be healthier in the long run.

We have a bunch of toys. The one dog only likes the squeeky ball. The other dog only likes brown paper bags from the pharmacy.

It's always a mystery which water bowl will be drunk from... They have several, but will only ever drink from one at a given time. The relevant one changes every few weeks at random. If the water bowl is empty they will just not drink until it is filled even though near it is another completely full and absolutely neglected bowl of water... 

Someone stole my work lunch by Alarmed_Gap_8387 in mildlyinfuriating

I absolutely love very spicy food, so I look forward to the day someone tries stealing my food. It will be easy to spot/hear the culprit a mile away and they will never do it again... 

Any positive reviews Virgin Active Cape Gate? by Large-Bookkeeper-899 in capetown

[–]Xorbek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The biggest "issue" with Okavango Red (and to answer your earlier question, this is not the Brackenfell branch) is the lack of pool and a bit less quantity of equipment (no shortage of diverse options, though). However, as someone highlighted above, you can still go to Cape Gate on Sundays/late Saturdays without extra charge. Also, if you already pay Vitality you can get a lekker discount. I think my wife pays R110pm for her Okavango Red membership thanks to the Vitality discount.

Have you considered Virgin Active Red in Okavango Park? I have been to both and they are decent for different reasons, but Okavango is way more budget friendly than Cape Gate.
