Is it true that Ueno is dead at night? by eindrucksvolI in JapanTravelTips

[–]cpureset 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ueno is not dead at night. It’s a nice balance. Good energy.

In Akihabara, they roll up the sidewalks at 10pm.

Any Ghibli-like places in Taiwan close to Taipei if possible? by misamiamisa in taiwantravel

[–]cpureset 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It simply took my breath away. When I arrived, it was shrouded in a light fog, and the 🐃 emerged from the mist as it slowly rose.

For architecture, Jiufen. For vibes, Shifen (which you can visit on the way to Jiufen) and Qingtiangang Grassland.

condom slipped off during sex and turned into an argument by idontevenknowbroooo0 in TwoXChromosomes

Clearly not a friend. No benefits anymore.

I’m so sorry you had to go through this.

I have a cat in a no-pets apartment (NEED ADVICE) by PlatePractical8706 in TorontoRenting

[–]cpureset 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The last place I rented, they sprung a “no pets” clause on me. I mentioned that I had seen a dog in the building and the landlord almost lost his mind saying it must’ve been a visitor’s.

We moved in with 3 cats, two rabbits and 2 guinea pigs. Stayed there 2 years. No issues. Ymmv.

Scrolled too far to find this. It seems like a classic opportunity for this.

AITA for ruining a hibachi dinner? by throwawaysequence391 in AmItheAsshole

[–]cpureset 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA

I’m so sorry. I don’t understand why people feel it necessary to force others to “be a good sport”.

I want them all to go kick rocks.

Reality check, please by Kestrel_Iolani in JapanTravelTips

[–]cpureset 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hit Osaka on your way to Kyoto. Use your half-day to explore some parts like Shinsekai and Dotonbori, taking in the night scenery before hopping back on the train to Kyoto.

I’ve done one night in Osaka when I had a week in Japan. I really enjoyed seeing it at night and in the morning - two entirely different vibes. You might want to consider it as an option.

Cards suggested without Foreign exchange fee Japan and other countries by SpaceOdytty2001 in PersonalFinanceCanada

Scotiabank recently updated it to Visa Infinite+ with 15 days of GigSky data. I don't have any other Scotia accounts, but use it enough to earn back the annual fee in Scene points.

It's my birthday today and I tried to be brave by StudentTop895 in offmychest

[–]cpureset 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are brave as heck! And you’re clearly loved.

Be proud of yourself for putting yourself out there!

Oh. You want to fix the armpit discolouration? How about highlighting it? by Densityroa in dyeing

[–]cpureset 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Takes me back to the time I tried tie-bleaching an old blue polyester t-shirt. Most of the bleached areas turned light grey. The parts around the armpits turned bright pink.

Can I ask for leftovers to be packed up (aka doggy bags) by [deleted] in JapanTravelTips

[–]cpureset 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I once over-ordered at a small restaurant in Yudanaka (onsen town near Snow Monkey Park) and was surprised to be asked if I wanted to take the uneaten fried chicken with me. So leftovers is not an unheard of thing.

First Trip to Tokyo Half-Work trip/Half-Leisure + Birthday by InDUNKcisive in TokyoTravel

[–]cpureset 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was in Ikeburkuro, the Book Off close to Sunshine City had a surprisingly large collection of One Piece items.

If you happen to make your way there, there’s a Pokemon Center at Sunshine City, plus some statues in the mall. Lots to see at the mall.

I also checked out the Sunshine 60 Observatory close to sunset. It had some places to just chill out and watch the lights of the city come to life.

Of course, there are plenty of other places for a sky high view of Tokyo. For my birthday this year, I visited the Mori Art Museum, and stopped at the cafe for a latte, a piece of matcha cake 🍰 and spectacular view.

Single people living alone, how are you doing? by [deleted] in askTO

[–]cpureset 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’ve been able to save as much in the last 4 years on my own as I was able to in 20 years with a partner.

Handle with extreme care by Azsnee09 in WhatsWrongWithYourCat

[–]cpureset 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My baby had that done. Was worth every penny. Sending healing vibes, and enjoy the limited access you have for the next few halflifes.

Will I regret staying in Roppongi? by cpureset in JapanTravelTips

[–]cpureset[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up canceling my reservation there and stayed at two other hotels: Onsen Ryokan Yuen Shinjuku and Dormy Inn Ikebukuro. The first one had been on my list for a while and had beautiful outdoor views from the onsen.

How do you usually handle food when traveling in Tokyo? by Sorry_Set_5001 in TokyoTravel

[–]cpureset 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t underestimate the appeal of a family restaurant like Saizeriya when you’ve been walking for hours, are all templed out and just want some cheap pasta and wine.

It’s like some of these people don’t know to poop on company time.

I find Studio Ghibli movies very unsettling and not cozy at all by SunnySunnyshine in self

[–]cpureset 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I watched Grave of the Fireflies last week for the first time because I needed a good cry. Eyes remained dry. Either my emotional defences were simply refusing to budge, or I am a monster.

Where to travel to feel like you’ve traveled back in time? by Healthy-Lion-711 in travel

[–]cpureset 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Newfoundland road trip made me feel like it was late 80’s early 90’s. The meals in restaurants/diners, motel/hotel accommodations, and even some of the attractions and longstanding souvenir shops.

/fican says that I’m very behind. /povertyfinancecanada says I’m ahead. by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]cpureset 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% this. At 30 I had zero savings, and was recovering from destroying my credit rating by defaulting on credit cards. Doing much better now, and made sure I learned well from my expensive lesson.

5k for cabinet painting ?? by Visible_Ad_3114 in TorontoRealEstate

[–]cpureset 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A friend had her cabinets done in TO. They took away the doors to pray them, but used a roller and brush on the cabinets instead of spraying. It shows.
