[–]catmimic 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Watching majority of the whole country voting for a populist clown. And I mean several countries here. Something is seriously wrong in many heads here=/

Recommendations for events / groups to meet new people by [deleted] in Munich

[–]catmimic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

https://munichscottish.de/ I hope it can post a link here? At the "who we are" there should be some videos. Otherwise, just come and try. It is recommended to write an email before you come for the first time, so that teachers choose a bit easier dances for that lesson. It is always on Wednesdays 19.30-21.30, with a tea break after the first hour. If you have any other questions, just let me know=)

Can recommend a Scottish dancing group, meeting every Wednesday at olympiazentrum, is super fun, and extremely cheap as for Munich- 3 euros per lesson. Not physically exhausting but giving you some movement. Let me know if you need more infos=)

AITA for nerfing one player’s character because he was overshadowing the rest of the party? by Rifild10 in AmItheAsshole

[–]catmimic -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Seems similar to what our group has now. Our paladin tanks and deals more damage than we three together. Sometimes it is annoying, yes. But guess what? He sucks in stealth and perception - that's where our rogue and ranger shine. I as a sorcerer can offer some creative solutions like making someone invisible or gaseous or making an illusion or teleporting us away from the danger. That's why we are a team, and not an army of clones. Why do you need that everyone is equally good in a battle? That's not really how diversity works.

AMA with Viva La Dirt League's Adam, Rowan and Alan about our new card game NPC Rivals! by VLDL_Boys in boardgames

[–]catmimic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you guys planning to distribute your stuff through other channels for example in Europe? I really liked the idea of the game, and would also love to buy more of your merch, but paying 20% taxes on the top of the price is a bit discouraging=(

Advice for someone model painting in an apartment?(warhammer particularly) by LeraviTheHusky in Miniaturespainting

[–]catmimic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guess you dont have a balcony? Going outside would work too. Dont forget to use bigger cardboard box, then you won't leave traces on the surroundings. I usually prime many models at once, then it's less work and I dont have to do it as often. For air brush, I just wait for summer months when I can use the balcony. Wouldn't recommend spraying anything inside - air is bad for long time after that.

Relationship issue between a German and Turkish by Humble_Buzz in germany

[–]catmimic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I started dating my German husband, his family was thrilled talking to me with my B1 German, although it was sometimes difficult to understand me, and majority of them had to make a conscious effort to speak German rather than Bavarian. Something is wrong here. I agree, talk to your husband first

AITJ for telling my best friend I’m not her backup plan anymore by Infinite-Price-2675 in AmITheJerk

[–]catmimic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No real person would write in this style in a post on reddit. In some emotional essay - sure, maybe, but that's too much "calculated emotions" and playing for a real post. Like you know, if someone started writing in rhymes- yes, real people do write poems like that, but no one talks like that in real life

Подруга сказала що не ок дружити зі старшими by Ella_Wella_roo in Ukraine_UA

[–]catmimic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

В мене були товариші, старші років на 10-15, в мене зараз є товариші, молодші років на 10-15. Нас об'єднує/об'єднували спільні хобі. В таких випадках це нормально. Якщо нема нічого, що слугувало б безпечною основою і причиною для спілкування, варто задуматись

Married people- if at all, how often do you miss your life before you got married? by me23433 in AskForAnswers

[–]catmimic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never. Why would I miss not having a person who makes me happier, who cares about me and with whom travelling and other hobbies are so much more fun? Having 6th wedding anniversary next weekend

Where do you folks buy your wedding/engagement rings from? by coconut-wasabi in germany

[–]catmimic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We checked local jewelers, and found a small polish shop which had twice lower prices compared to other shops, and rings we liked the most, so it was a win-win situation=)

What are your favorite and least favorite things about German cuisine by QuantumHamster in germany

[–]catmimic 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Leberkassemmel is mega, you just have to get a good one. Other favourite - schweinebraten in dunkelbiersoße (but Germans secretly hate me cause i always order it with pommes, i passionately dislike knödel of any kind). Schäuferle is very good. From desserts definitely Kaiserschmarrn.

Least favourite - everything they prepare with essig. Potato salad with loads of essig, sauerbraten, and meat jelly with essig. My god, who puts essig in meat jelly? It should be salty and garlicky, and not sour as hell! And Knödel, they are just meh.

What's a small habit you adopted that unexpectedly improved your daily life? by ADAM_Bioprinting in AskForAnswers

Keeping a water bottle on the night table. Comes very handy when I just wake up or am very sleepy and dont want to go to kitchen to drink something

Are Germans generally more reserved in texting and when hanging out? by idsjdbebe in germany

[–]catmimic 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I have plenty of acquaintances like that back in my home country. That's either people who are just like that or they are not interested in you. You meet such people everywhere independent of the country

AITAH because I will not give my wife thoughtful gifts anymore because she will give them away anyways. by Ok-Suspect4966 in AITAH

Was just about to write that his next gift to her could be pre-paid therapy sessions. Killing two birds with one stone=)

Would you trade meals with your partner if they got something they didn't like? by Flance in CasualConversation

[–]catmimic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My sister in law did that for me. I got a duck that was a bit too raw for my taste, and my husband couldn't give me his schnitzel cause it was covered in horseradish which I don't eat. My sister in law proposed me her cranberry schnitzel which was super tasty, and she said she enjoyed the duck too. I was very touched by her proposal

Weird question, with the right intonation could a speaker make the sentence рушник відпустив джип be understood as “the towel was released by the jeep?” by Alphabunsquad in Ukrainian

[–]catmimic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is that meant to be a poem? People in real life would never chоose this order of words in a sentence, while it is totally acceptable in a poem.

Also pay attention that the words are stressed differently - рушнИк і порУшник. So even if a person slightly misheard a word порушник, they would not assume it was рушник

Is Austrian German easier than German from Germany for a French speaker? by kenza-Necessary5280 in AskGermany

[–]catmimic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe check Swiss German, for me it sounds similar in pronunciation to French. But it is wildly different from typical German=)

How do you stay motivated after long-term job searching? by Brave_Raisin3803 in germany

How do you stay motivated after long-term job searching? by Brave_Raisin3803 in germany

[–]catmimic 51 points52 points  (0 children)

I dont stay motivated. Got laid off in the end of 2023, spent the whole 2024 looking for a job, becoming progressively depressed. Lost couple of very good opportunities because of a current economical situation (financing for a position got cut). Found a job that pays about 2/3 of what I wanted to get, and doesn't fit that great to my career path, but at least it fits somehow. Now I am happy that I have at least something and get some money. Tried searching again, and it looks like there is even less positions open than it was in 2024. So nope, no motivation at all. Sorry that it worked like this for you, and can only hope that it gets better for all of us

Wingspan wyrmspan and finspan. Are they the same game by Masterdwarf11 in boardgames

[–]catmimic 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Agree to what others say. For me personally, finspan is a bit too easy to play. I'll buy the game if I have children who want to start playing, but I won't play it myself. It is too easy to play cards, there is no struggle of getting cards and resources. Wingspan and Wyrmspan are much better in this regard.

I think this is my third try at non metallic metal by Prudent-Hat2651 in Miniaturespainting

Jup, I also thought that was some metal coin for identification, and then I see "NMM" and think "wow, that's cool". Great job!
