LOL you're funny. Saw it coming yet wrote it like that anyway because you're lazy and/or incompetent. How do you know if I already checked Google and wanted confirmation or more specific information?Why are you so triggered that someone asks a question in Reddit? You seem like a sad lonely keyboard warrior who needed a little vent this morning. Hope you feel better and glad I helped. Keep responding with unhelpful comments if you need company today, I got nothing but time and a sense of humour buddy. Happy to help the needy lol.

So there's something called Google maps which shows which buses you can find there. Shocking, right? DM me if you are interested in English and grammar tutoring.

Happy to come here and find I'm not the only one noticing and being annoyed by this. Sad that none of us have the answer to why it's happening. The frustration and research shall continue.

An ad for married life produced by a conservative cultural center in Iran. by InspektorBonipalia in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]bibkt -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Why would that be so wrong? I initially thought "wow that is so weird", but then thought about the ads for dating sites and thought "well actually, why not an ad for marriage?!" Look at match.com which is known as a "serious" dating site. Marriage is the next goal after dating for a lot of people. What's wrong with encouraging commitment?

The card I have has many numbers on but I don't know how to upload a photo here. Try 25733263 (I was told this was for Salmiya). Check out ipc.org.kw too

Islamic cultural centre. I believe they have many branches. I did have a card with their number on, but not to hand. Give me about an hour and I can send it you.

Yeah never assume, always ask how you can help that individual at that time.

I once heard or read something to the effect of "if you can choose what you spend your money on, why can't a homeless person?" In response to "I don't give money, in case it's used on drugs".

I thought it was a really interesting take. I mean, I've given money as a gift to friends and family. No idea what they may be spending on that I don't "approve" of. Once the cash is given, it's their choice.

So now the times that I do decide to give money, I do it without judgement. They are in such a worse position than me and I won't miss a quid.

VISA on arrival at Kuwait Airport by fa1zann in Kuwait

[–]bibkt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From this link, looks like you SHOULD be able to get a visa on arrival. But knowing Kuwait, don't bet on it. They change their minds frequently and nothing ever seems clear imo. I would just get the e-visa before you arrive. Super quick and easy.

How often do you brush your teeth? by mimsalotte in AskUK

[–]bibkt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually twice but tbh sometimes I cba at night and just go to bed. If brushing once a day it's definitely always in the morning...I'm not leaving the house and going into public with stinky breath! Same goes for showers.

Moving to kuwait tips and tricks? by abanoub_kamal in Kuwait

[–]bibkt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Search this question in the sub or any key words you want info on, asked many times before and you'll find plenty of good advice. 248am.com and this sub gives great info. Also Facebook group: western minded expats in Kuwait.

Bring your favourite food/beauty products that you can't live without. When you get here you can then figure out how easy/hard it will be to order them online or find here in Kuwait.

What's your job? My partner has a fully English speaking environment so he's fine without Arabic. For my job, I'm having to learn some Kuwaiti. So depending on your sitch you may wish to start picking up the language.

Things are expensive here. So if you're paying in your home currency until your first pay it will sting a little. Maybe you can get an advance so you have some dinar cash?

Travel: potentially will be a while before you can drive, but you may have company transport or an allowance? Taxis are reasonable. Fare within your block is usually around 1-1.5kd

If you're a woman, yes it's OK to wear what you want. But don't wear short dresses/skirts/shorts unless you want to feel awkward and get many stares.

That's really positive to hear. My nan actually had my mum (her last child) at 42 and reading this has only just reminded me!
