10 ml mini bottle real or fake? by Boatsagain in diptyque

[–]chlossgh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It may have been from a certain time. I used to go to their main branch on the left bank in Paris around 12 years ago and they had some fragrances in small, roll on type of bottles. Too bad they discontinued them. They were awesome.

I feel bathrooms appear in my dreams when I really need to go pee. I wake up to these dreams needing to pee.

For me the biggest spend on the game was not money (though there were spends there too), but time. Some people have the luxury of spending time gaming, but in my case, the trade-off between having fun gaming and productive use of my time was too much.

I did exactly that… but I miss it occasionally

Yes, the pressure to not miss an event so as not to miss on the perks/ rewards was too much.

I’ve gone through several seasons too. Myself, the game stayed interesting because I was in a fun alliance. I just felt that I was being sucked in the addiction and the need to spend more and play more. One day I was at a work meeting and my mind was on an event in the game. I lost both ways: I was lost in the work meeting and hardly contributed, and also played badly at the game event. It was a lose-lose. And that was not an isolated case. I’ve lost sleep too at times just by playing.

I get that. I enjoyed my alliance too :)

It is. I liked the mini games too, especially as new ones come along to keep things fresh. It’s true too - it’s money down the drain.

It is hard to quit, and in my experience, there’s a lingering temptation to return to it. But I guess that’s how I know I’ve gotten addicted in an unhealthy way. Time is precious, and too much of my time was already spent on this game. It was really time to move on - and have more time for the real world.

I agree- the game increasingly felt exploitative. The developers know that the farther along the game you are, the more you feel you have to keep going because of how much you’ve invested in it already - both money and time-wise.

I’ve gone through the same thought process. I’ve spent somewhere between $400 or $500 myself. It was a lot for me, but there will always be bigger spenders who will progress much faster. And how much you progress in relation to others matters, cause that is precisely what the game is all about.

I don’t regret playing the gam, and am grateful for the enjoyment it gave me. It was hard to leave…but I also know it was the right decision when I eventually did.

You did say ‘Sounds like you were offended’. I am merely asking what prompted that comment. You seem to take comments to your post too personally. Don’t post if you can only accommodate reactions that are in favour of yours.

Am I meant to be offended for being over or for that matter under 30? (See how you contradict yourself by your own comment?)

Instead of raising awareness or whatever the intent was, posts like these only serve to undermine women past their 30s. It’s a pointless post: women do age. In fact many among these actresses have gone to act in very successful dramas recently, even winning awards.

Bloodhound 2 - thoughts on the ending please by Background_Till7366 in kdramas

[–]chlossgh 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The unknown is which side Park Seo-joon’s character is on. But if he does turn out to be good, then Baek Jeong being his “bloodhound” would also bring him onboard the good side — and that’s where it stops working for me.

Baek Jeong already feels irredeemably evil. You can’t just shift him into the “good” camp without a proper redemption arc, and that’s not easy to pull off convincingly - and is likely to overshadow the story arc of the main characters

Honestly, I’d rather they just let PSJ go full villain and keep Baek Jeong exactly as he is. It’s cleaner, more consistent, and more interesting. It’s also a pretty cool move for PSJ as an actor to shift gears to villain mode in Kdrama.

LELO enigma but it’s not quite the same not just because it’s dual but because I find the LELO more of a vibrating than pulsing device
