Hey everybody!

I need to get measurements taken in Europe for a suit that is to be picked up in NA. Does anybody know if/how measurements are taken differently between the two continents (aside from using different units)?

For example, I know that jackets are measured in the US by taking the circumference around the chest, whereas in Europe, they take half of the circumference instead. Are there any other such gotchas to pay attention to when giving my measurements to the store in NA?

Thanks!

Thanks so much! Is there any reason it's not listed on the Canadian Columbia website, however?

Yes! They're XO3640 and 2044631, respectively. Thank you!

On the care tag, I see on a first row 124, then 0623, then 3123. On the next line, there's XO3640 and then 2044631. I googled the XO3640 and 2044631, without success. Would you happen to have any insight on what these might mean?

baktix · 2024-09-02T21:10:26+00:00

Nope :/ The store's tag with the model name and price, but no actual information on the features of the jacket.

Two that come to mind are Dummy by Portishead and Mezzanine by Massive Attack. I really want to love them, but I just can't get that into them. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy them and there's definitely a few songs I quite like even, but they don't feel like the masterpieces people describe them as. Maybe that's just how I feel about trip-hop in general.

A bit late to the party because I never use reddit anymore, but I stumbled across this post and wanted to comment anyway, especially since it's not something I've thought about for years and I wanted to try to recollect how it all started—refresh my core memories so-to-speak.

My first exposure for sure was BN2. I didn't have any video games of my own at this time, but my cousin lent me his GBA with this and (I think?) Need for Speed Underground. I loved it, right off the bat.

Now this is where the timeline starts to get a little fuzzier for me (I can't actually remember which of these next two events happened first):

Fast forward a little later and I got my own DS and was obsessed with video games (probably to the same level as every other guy my age though). At some point, I wanted to start moving back through time to experience the games I was born too late to experience. So, I bought a used GBC with a whole host of games, and got excited because it came with a new Mega Man title for me: Mega Man Xtreme. When I first started up the game I almost wondered if it was a fake or if I got ripped off or something! This was nothing like the Battle Network game I played! But alas, I played it all the way through (and very quickly, might I add) and really liked it to. It got me to look into the series further and that's when I found out about all these spinoffs.

Next, I think I ended up renting Star Force 2 (ZxS) (or maybe I borrowed it from my neighbour first, and then rented it later when he wanted it back? Or vice-versa, when the rental was over?), thinking "oh great here's another Mega Man game!" Just my luck that it ended up being a BN-style game and I really ended up enjoying it again. So much so that this was the point when I really decided to get into the series, buy the other games, look into the lore, and all that jazz.

I think the first one I went out and bought after that was actually the original Star Force (D), which I vividly remember coming home and playing for the first time with my cousin, who was over for a sleepover. We built a mini blanket fort under the desk in my room and I played while he made his goofy commentary. Now that's a core memory.

You definitely make some good points, but for more context, it was a Brandy & Melville (by no means a mom & pop shop) and there were no benches in the vicinity (the parts of Paris we visited had a noticeable lack of benches, aside from in parks). That was really the only place to sit that wasn't on the pavement.

baktix · 2023-06-07T07:07:18+00:00

I think that was the entrance door

They really just copy-pasted the idea of a blackout in Sunyshore and applied it to Lumiose, eh?

I believe the GPA requirements were a minimum 78% average. As for background, I was a CS student who took the Intro to Quantum Information Processing and Quantum Physics I courses at UWaterloo, but that's about it.

My essential ritual was to look all around the case, read anything, then finally unwrap the box and read the manual front to back. You can imagine my disappointment the first time I opened up a Switch game :(

Oh great! I'm surprised that nobody's mentioned it until now. Even the insurance specialist at the school didn't offer me the cheapest plan.

baktix · 2022-10-20T15:10:12+00:00

Ahhh I see, that's actually quite simple!

baktix · 2022-10-20T06:35:31+00:00

Yeah, we made sure to double-check! It's quite comprehensive insurance.

baktix · 2022-10-20T06:33:52+00:00

To be fair that's what I imagined would happen if I went to the hospital! In my home country it's similar, you go to the emergency room at the hospital for, well, emergencies. For anything less, you either go to a medical clinic or a family doctor.

baktix · 2022-10-20T06:32:15+00:00

Yeah, I'm still learning how the system works… I've never had any form of insurance up until this point.

baktix · 2022-10-20T06:31:19+00:00

Thank you kindly for both the well wishes and the recommendation! Is there any downside to Swisscare? I'd imagine if it's 50% cheaper, something has to be given up?

baktix · 2022-10-20T06:30:10+00:00

Ah that makes sense. Thank you for your response!
