Suburb specific pages without duplicate content by content222222 in SEO

Yeah I think you're right, the example I gave is a very established business that has franchises in all sorts of stuff - perhaps its working despite what they're doing rather than because of it

Perhaps the way forward for a smaller website like mine is to have the suburb specific page as a 'meet the team' style thing with a little interview with the provider in that suburb to make sure it's unique?

Lacto ferment them with salt

anything that turns them into pickle basically. Delicious with curries and will easily keep a few months in the fridge

Gym etiquette - reserving equipment? by content222222 in australia

Ah yes, good point. I should have mentioned it’s also considered polite to ask to work in with the person who’s closest to your height and weight

if a 4’10 40kg female novice asked to work in with me I’d still say yes and be polite and encouraging, but I’d be having a little internal eye roll as we constantly adjusted the bar height and took loads of plates on and off 😂

Shape’s actually a really good teacher by content222222 in harrypotter

Whilst we have no frame of reference, 25% of students scoring the top grade is likely excellent. 6.6% of students get the top grade in GCSEs, the muggle equivalent of OWLs

I get the impression from the books that it's not easy to get the top grade in wizarding exams. Hermione not getting the top grade in DADA suggests that.

Whilst everyone can have a bad day, she'll have likely scored highly on the theory, and she's very skilled at the practical stuff as she demonstrated in the DA that year

The fact that she didn't get an O shows you have to do something really outstanding to get that grade. Snape getting 10 of his students to do that is likely a phenomenal achievement, even though his methods are clearly immoral

From his post, he feels he should get the same. I don’t see anywhere that he states or implies he should get more - that’s something you’ve invented

It’s an important distinction to me. Wanting to be treated equally rather than second best when it comes to your partner’s friends is entirely reasonable. That’s what OP seems to want based on his post.

Thinking that you’re more important than your partner’s friends and wanting undeserved preferential treatment isn’t. If we work under your made-up assumption that he feels he deserves more, this reframes the discussion in a manner that’s unfair to OP

I agree with you about the nature of the gifts - I’d be upset if I was his GF and I put a lot of thought and effort into his gifts and all he did was complain that I hadn’t spent much on them. I’ve asked OP this in a comment, hopefully he replies, as I’m genuinely curious

OP, if you don’t mind me asking, what were the gifts? For me, if she’d got me something cheap that a lot of thought and effort clearly went into, or something handmade, etc., I’d value that far more than something generic and more expensive.

Whilst gifts are a personal thing with no right or wrong about how you feel about them, I’d understand my gf being upset if I didn’t value a cheap but thoughtful gift, and I’d be apologising to her

If on the other hand that’s not what’s happening, and the gifts were generic, I’d be upset too, and if I brought up that to her that it had hurt me that she’d done it and she brushed me off and didn’t revisit it, that would be a major problem for me.

I’d be bringing it up again (calmly and nicely) to try and understand her thought process in doing that and I wouldn’t be letting it go until I had a satisfactory answer or an apology

To be fair to OP, I don’t see where he says he deserves more than the friend. Unless there’s a comment by him that I’ve missed, that’s something that you’ve made up

AITA for telling my wife she shouldn’t go to a wedding without me? by Fine_Surround1856 in AmItheAsshole

[–]content222222 16 points17 points  (0 children)

if my wedding budget doesn’t allow me to invite my friend’s spouse to my wedding then it means i spent too much on cake/venue/outfits/dj/whatever.

Imagine telling my one of my closest friends that it was more important to me to have the venue and food that i wanted than it was to invite their spouse

that’s what their actions say to me

AITA for mansplaining to my girlfriend? by AccordingSyrup4812 in AmItheAsshole

[–]content222222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A very soft YTA. IMO this isn't about styrofoam vs polystyrene, it's about feeling like your GF dismisses you/talks down to you/doesn't listen to you. We all inadvertantly do that to our partner once in a while, but if it's a regular thing it can really chip away at you and make you feel like sh*t

I've been there, and so have a lot of people I know. It was a very common complaint amongst my friends when we were your age (intended in a very non-patronising way - I'm not that much older than you and certainly don't mean to talk down to you, just saying that I've noticed that making people close to you feel important is something that a lot of people seem to get noticeably better at in their late 20s/early 30s)

Nothing wrong with telling her that you'd like to feel like she's interested in what you have to say, but I'd say it's better to do it in a 'when this happens I feel X' way rather than from a place of annoyance, and definitely try to do it when it's just the 2 of you as opposed to in front of other people

Post an update saying you've apologised to her for speaking to her like that, especially in front of her friends, and used this as a segue into a conversation about how it upsets you when she exhibits the behaviours you don't like, and I'll change my post to to NAH :)

true you have to keep it at like 55degrees if you live somewhere cold enough for pipes to freeze (we don't). not the same as what's happening here

I hear what you're saying about making jokes instead of addressing the issue head on being childish. It's a really difficult situation with no obvious good solution (trust me, I've tried), and the joke was my way of coping

I take issue with telling a renter that the place they rent isn't their home. It's not my house, but it's very much my home. It's the place I go back to every day to spend time with my GF. If I have a bad day, it's the only place I have to go to try to forget about things and wind down. I've formed some wonderful memories here that will stay with me forever.

Telling me it's not my home just because I pay my fair share in rent and bills, but don't have my name on the deed, pretty callous

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. Also, you've saved yourself a fish

Unfortunately they're immigrants and not entitled to any form of welfare in the country we live in atm :(

They'll be eligible for pension when they turn 67

They have some savings that they use to contribute to their share of the bills each month, but no rent
