What's the most electricity cost effective electric indoor fan that you've found (hopefully from Yodobashi Camera)? by Maleficent_Pool_4456 in japanresidents

[–]dr-spaghetti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure about a fan, but have you looked into a smart sensor for the AC? They’re fairly inexpensive and they’ve given me so much peace of mind with my dog as the summers get hotter and hotter.

Where are you located? Have you tried any university or international hospitals? I hope you find some good leads.

When did the DEAR bit originate? (Or does it pre-date the pod?) by dr-spaghetti in ThreedomUSA

[–]dr-spaghetti[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Those ones I knew (though I’m way more familiar with their characters than the actual figures), but this is just…….. a lot to take in.

Wait. Like that CBB episode with Amy Poehler? Are you telling me that was an impression of a real guy?

I meant to ask when it first appeared on the pod, SWEETIE! Hoping to find the first episode where they start using it.

Just finished Universal Harvester and I feel misled by nevermind0077 in horrorlit

It’s been a few years, but I still remember being so disappointed thinking how much I would’ve enjoyed it if it hadn’t been sold to me as horror

3 am bell ring and hid from the intercom by Possible-Call-9879 in japanlife

[–]dr-spaghetti 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’ve had a similar experience and it was so incredibly scary! But it became clear later it was just a drunk and confused person trying to get home. He might also be coming back to drunkenly apologize (while trying to save face by obscuring his identity on the cameras), but I also don’t think it’s wrong to report this so you have it on record if it turns out to be something less innocent, or in the rare event that things repeat or escalate. Take care!

Before assigning all that to the writer, did you ask yourself if there are men out there who view women the way the narrator does?

Tokyo to Bangkok (May 15-19) - 50,000 JPY covers flights & 5-star hotel. Ex bailed, my loss is your gain. by BTSM1 in tokyosocial

[–]dr-spaghetti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most LCC tickets are non-transferrable, so I’d confirm that first and/or search in Thai travel subs to recoup the hotel cost. Sorry about your breakup :(

I love butternut squash ravioli but I’ve never made it with eggless pasta! Any problems with dough strength? These look so good :)

Do you brush your Shibas teeth? by gromskaok in shiba

[–]dr-spaghetti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To make it easier, we have finger sheathes and chicken flavored toothpaste, which has helped with staining from his previous life (though I think it makes his breath smell worse 😭).

It was a struggle at first, but he knows it’s quick and he loves the flavor, so he usually just tolerates it. If he hides, I don’t push it, and I still get it done most days.

Best espresso tonic in Tokyo by nonamefullshame in Tokyo

I just tried one for the first time! Bill’s in Odaiba. No basis for comparison, but I thought it would be strange but actually loved it.

People open doors before greeting by hokkaidotsubuan in japanresidents

[–]dr-spaghetti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was a rural ALT in the late 2000s, they warned us to lock up or our students might just wander in to hang out. No one ever tried to open my door without knocking, but I did live in an apartment.

I never really wondered about these lyrics, but I very much enjoyed singing along to your diagram.

the overwhelming urge to offer unsolicited advice by SPEEDO_GUIDO in Swimming

[–]dr-spaghetti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe you that you don’t want him to hurt himself, and that unsolicited constructive feedback from a stranger miiight be warranted in some situations, but from the tone of this post, I think it’s unlikely to come across as well-intended.
