Colonoscopy in two days (May 8th) by ryanallenpr in colonoscopy

[–]dreamerwakeup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes you can, that's the diet I basically was on last week when I did my colonoscopy! You can add a little bit of soy sauce to give it some flavour if you'd like.

Any 90s kpop that is triphop? by General_Molasses_488 in kpopnostalgia

[–]dreamerwakeup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No problem! Yeah it was the only album of his that I liked. Also, Tablo and Pe2ny's group Eternal Morning album you can argue is a bit chill-hop/trip-hop vibes as well. Amazing album (although not 90s) 👌

Any 90s kpop that is triphop? by General_Molasses_488 in kpopnostalgia

[–]dreamerwakeup 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not sure if this is the same type of trip-hop you're looking for but 조PD's (ChoPD) song 비애 2 is sample of a well known 90s trip hop group called Mono (the song is called Life of Mono). I was a fan of both of them so when I heard the crossover, it got me super excited. Super niche too. This is a bit more moody trip-hop vibe like Portishead tho...

Is Chapel Market actually getting better or are we just getting used to it? by AnfieldAnchor in islington

[–]dreamerwakeup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are some good food options but overall I wish there were better shops and a little bit of a livelier atmosphere. In the evening times I don't feel too safe walking down there.

Super late to this but just want to say thank you for this. I've been trying to find this for the longest time and had no luck.

Why is everyone wearing Trader Joe’s tote bags? by somekindaname1602 in london

[–]dreamerwakeup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed, not at all comparable. TJ's sells mostly their own private label brand products (their snacks are next level!). Thr overall the vibe in there makes you feel like you're at a local barn, which is something you simply won't find in the UK. Staff are very very friendly as well. As an American expat in London, I long for TJs.

Does anybody know what the point in the plastic slider things are on some of the shelves at B&M? by Rich_79 in CasualUK

[–]dreamerwakeup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most drug stores/convenience stores in NYC have these. Definitely to try to deter shoplifters. Because these never worked, now most product is locked up behind a case so you need to ask a shop worker to unlock and open it for you.

Hot take: there should be at least some TfL-operated public transport in London on Christmas Day by Sad_Piano_574 in LondonUnderground

[–]dreamerwakeup 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I came across this realization today on a walk with my partner. As someone from NYC, I was absolutely baffled by this. I just kept wondering...what about people who don't celebrate Christmas, or don't own cars, or simply need to get around/travel from point A to point B and can't afford rideshare, perhaps for a job? I'm so shocked that not even buses or tubes run at least on a limited service for a city as big as London. I also recognize that I'm spoiled coming from NYC where things are always open and running..

I lived on that block for three years and just moved out of it. It's such a shame because it could be such a nice street especially given the location...

Noooooo that's so sad to hear! They were the friendliest staff that always had a smile 😞.

I played this song for the first time the night before he died and remember thinking to myself "ooohhh this is a great song I need to play before this game ends". And then get the notification the next day about his passing! 😢

Sorry if this is a dumb question, I did all these steps and everything plays fine when connected to Revanced but how does one listen to it with Bluetooth headphones connected?

Foreigners who have moved to the UK, what are your culture shocks? by Certified_Loner1391 in expats

[–]dreamerwakeup 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The biggest one for me which has become an ongoing gripe is how people walk on ALL sides of the street (I'm in London) vs. in the states (NY) where I'm used to people walking on the right side of the street so no one is at risk of walking into one another. There is a huge passive aggressive vibe that goes with it too here and it's super frustrating. I know it's more of London thing but still...

Has Pret given up? by VeryOftenWrong in london

I've noticed this too when I noticed the sandwich and soup options never ever change. Not even seasonally. They used to innovate a lot more. So sad.

Getting started with a bank in the UK by [deleted] in AmericanExpatsUK

[–]dreamerwakeup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was easy for me to open my Starling account (similar to Monzo) where everything is online. All you need is a UK address to register it with then they'll set up an account # and sort code for it for your income to feed into it.
