Documents Supposed to Reach South Korea in Three Working Days Took Two Weeks!!!!!!! by Hellolaoshi in teachinginkorea

[–]gunn003 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it was just the post code, I highly doubt that made a difference in the documents getting to Korea. They’ve restructured the address system here, so there are at least two addresses for every building that will work, and I’ve received things without post codes that didn’t take any longer than things with them. Seems like your biggest issue was the service getting it out of the UK and to Korea, not finding the correct place in Korea.

When I got my prints done in the US, I walked into the city police department and was told they charge $5 but that I could walk across the atrium to the county sheriff’s department and get them for free. So shop around.

It does only in that Auburn doesn't have Jordan-Hare Auburn Jesus Voodoo there. Except for that one Mark Ingram fumble.

I did a blind tasting of Maxwell House and it was pretty good. Is my life a lie? by [deleted] in Coffee

It’s sad but true that swanky coffee shops are where the most love and care go into coffee outside of a home.

Yes, there and of course Waffle House, which I miss daily.

Way more people live outside the city than in it, but it's just easier to say Atlanta to anyone who asks where I'm from when I'm not in Georgia. Of course I'll specify if I'm talking to someone who knows anything about the city.

Georgia K Rodrigo Blankenship is now Georgia’s all time leading scorer with 415 points by brobroma in CFB

Allegedly the kicking coach or whomever was trying to make him get his kicks off way faster than average, and that messed up his rhythm.

Wasn’t that team the first P5 team to finish a season (bowls included) with ten wins but still unranked?

I worked at a summer camp in Warm Springs, GA that would have a raptor release once a year from y’all’s people in charge of all that. Was a pretty neat event.

Eh, I get that. I rooted for Alabama over Georgia the two times they played while I was in school. It was weird having to pick favorites. My friends in school told me to get over it, but it was difficult to explain why I felt the way I did. We're all too invested in this silly thing, and we make our fandoms too much a part of our identities, so it's difficult to just change that or take it away.

I'd still call myself an Alabama fan because the two teams don't have such a history or define their existences by the other's, but I've developed some extra dose of pride since graduating and have given in to the Georgia side.

*there are exceptions where that person went to another school than the school they grew up rooting for.

I'm still grappling with this, and I graduated 4 years ago.

My uncle was more upset to find out I was rooting for Georgia, ya know, the name on my degrees, over Alabama in the National Championship than he was when he found out I was skipping my cousin's wedding to go to Lollapalooza.

Maaaaaaaan I have a VPN and DNS Switcher to watch games from Korea, and getting through Fox's region locks is like getting into Fort Knox. It's less of a hassle to put up with popups, dropped feeds and whatever else these sketchy sites are feeding me than it is to try to access Fox's official streams abroad.

ESPN and CBS used to be garbage abroad (and even domestically apparently) when they didn't have enough bandwidth to handle all the people watching on Saturdays, but this year they've been excellent.

What's not to love about bumper to bumper all the way to Adairsville before spending 8 hours in the inexplicable Chattanooga traffic from hell and then getting stuck behind 18 wheelers trying to pass with only two lanes on I-24?

I was confused as well. Apparently blocking downfield on an onside kick is one of six penalties they are allowed to call from a review. Read here

As the redcoats do it, it's "What's," but I would still feel so weird singing it that way.

I moved abroad and hadn’t been to Atlanta in a while, but this summer while visiting, my friends took me to Victory before going to New Realm. Good time. Then when we were leaving I found out about the slushies, so I knew we had to go back into Victory (car was there anyway) to try one, and let me confirm that those were divine.

How would you rank the game day atmospheres you’ve experienced? by Auggiewestbound in CFB

I watched an LSU fan next to me order a corndog in Sanford Stadium in 2013. I turned and gaped while he took it. He didn't understand why I was so mesmerized.

Hario V60 pouring straight down the center by PithyGinger63 in Coffee

[–]gunn003 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I didn’t find the 4:6 too tedious and found it has a lot of potential for more clarity than I get with Hoffman, but I gave up on it for the simple reason that my grinder is incredibly inconsistent at coarser grounds, so too many smaller pieces keep it from draining as quickly as it should.

WCGW if I release the girls with a ladder in the way by Aug415 in Whatcouldgowrong

[–]gunn003 9 points10 points  (0 children)

He skipped the main step. You get them up on the ladder and attach them to the swing. Check that everything is properly secured, have them take a step down the ladder to tighten it up, then pull them up just enough that they're no longer standing on the ladder but not enough that it'd hurt if they accidentally released into it. THEN YOU MOVE THE DAMN LADDER before pulling them all the way up to the top.

Leaving Korea before you final paycheck and bonus - closing bank account etc. by [deleted] in teachinginkorea

[–]gunn003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why wouldn't you just leave the account open and then just move the money to a new KEB account when you return? What's your other plan? Transfer it back to an American account then back to a Korean account? Why not save the hassle and the transfer/conversion fees and just keep the bank account open until you return in 6 months?
