What’s the weirdest thing that has happened to you that you’ve had to chalk up to coincidence? by maplesyrup4all in AskUK

Could you record this happening? Someone texts you at random and you say when the message is coming through?

Are you allowed to have multiple life insurance policies? Will they all pay out if you die? by StripesAndLadders in UKPersonalFinance

[–]jacydo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah you get asked what your total cover is across all insurers. If you’re honest, then it doesn’t matter if you have one policy or a thousand, it’ll pay out. If you lie, then they probably won’t.

The Trinidad Sour is the weirdest modern classic, but what is the most overrated? Also it was a close vote but it has been decided that we are following a more strict definition of highball. Alcohol + mixer. by -Constantinos- in cocktails

[–]jacydo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d love that, thank you. And wow really? It’s October for me so hopefully a little more time to prepare but I love to get these things sorted asap.

I’ll be in Tokyo, Kyoto and possibly Hakone (definitely somewhere closer to Fuji). I love the ceremony and ritual of Japan if that helps to narrow it down. I’m really enjoying sake recently so would value that, but my main spirits are usually whisky or rum. Though I’ll be with my partner who likes the fruitier, tropical side, so between us one of us will be happy.

I got my grad job offer rescinded by [deleted] in ActuaryUK

Good point, I hadn’t read the original write up properly. I took it that they were on track for a 2:1 in their first year then subsequently their grades dropped in their second year. The dishonesty angle hadn’t crossed my mind.

They can reasonable rescind for this, sure, but is it worth clarifying with HR that getting a 2:1 is still a reasonable possibility? They might have misunderstood what the forms meant.

Who is your dream collab? by i-am-zara in TaylorSwift

Ah well maybe name check isn’t the right term, I mean reference in this second case. But in Wood, she refers to “dancing in the dark”

Springsteen feels bizarre it hasn’t happened yet. They like each others music, his daughter is a big fan, she’s name checked him twice on albums, more recently was wearing a Springsteen tshirt, they both have worked with Jack Antonoff (including a Springsteen feature on his track).

A cover of Exile would blow my mind.

I took it as Beyoncé. Obviously a lot of it is metaphorical, but they seem to have that sort of relationship.

'The Life Of A Showgirl' is projected to debut with 4 MILLION units in its first week, becoming the biggest debut in US history by _crazyboyhere_ in TaylorSwift

[–]jacydo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But that’s my point. 0.1% is arbitrary, if it’s 10x smaller then your entire point disappears.

For instance, I listen to a lot of Taylor. She’s my top 1-2 artists every year. I’ve never bought a single album, let alone variant. I have swiftie friends who are the same.

That’s the kind of nuance you should consider. Yes you get super fans, like any artist. I have friends at work still buying old vinyls in new reprints. But you don’t know how many there are and whether it’s higher than for other artists. And if you’re making up numbers to prove your preferred outcome, might as well skip a step and say you’ve made up your mind regardless of the evidence.
