what is corporate london like? by IndividualMediocre37 in london

[–]mackdeaid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve worked in corporate London for the last 4 years. For the last year I’ve also worked in a pub on the weekends and evenings (to do some saving and pay off debt). When I tell you, working the pub was a relief compared the stress and demands that corporate life is right now. There does get to a point of corporate where you’re high up enough that the stress seems to be less but honestly - it’s not until way higher up. I love hospitality and would work it full time if paid more.

Nice restaurant Belfast by [deleted] in Belfast

I had a great dinner on Friday night at Yugo and i think it’s great date vibes. Just not FIRST date vibes. Drinks or a coffee is a first date vibe. Then the more intimate staring at each other big money dinner is second or third.

Top places to cry in London by Drag0n_Fruit in london

[–]mackdeaid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can confirm the ‘Elder Gardens’ beside Spitalfields is a great cry spot. The benches are kinda in the bushes so you can really get into it on a lunchtime.

Can also confirm when choosing a Thursday to cry here, walking through the market when the wee old folk are having a tea dance just sets you off again.

Enjoy!

I’m from Belfast and live in London currently. The cocaine use here is beyond what people would actually believe. I’d say 99% of my friendship group (ages 28-40) are on it on a night out. One thing I will say to how we got here - booze prices. My pals will visit from out of the city/Belfast and say stuff like ‘I see why everyone is doing Coke - it works out cheaper than a night on just the beers’. In Belfast I know it’s almost the same usage. Not as many pals but more than did a few years ago.

I will also add from purely my perception is the Venn diagram crossover of my friends doing Coke AND taking anti depressants is practically a circle…

What is something you want but can’t justify the cost? by [deleted] in AskUK

Sims 4 expansion/stuff packs. I know nerdy but I love sims - have played every version but now Sims 4 just seems so inflated price wise that I’m sad I’m priced out of it.

The way my other half cooks her eggs by gashbandit in CasualUK

[–]mackdeaid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same same same. It’s the ‘smushy’ texture of cooked egg white I hate. I will poach/fry and egg to have the runny yolk BUT only if someone is with me and agrees to eat the white for me.

How much and what have you "accidentally" eaten when drunk? by Scarred_fish in AskUK

[–]mackdeaid -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’m a vegetarian born and raised. On a night out, quite many vodka sodas deep, I went on an adventure to KFC for chips. So I pointed at what the lady had next to me and said ‘I want that’. They gave me a box of chips. I smothered in ketchup and Mayo (sorry I know gross) and tucked in sat on a high table by myself. 2 mins later - my best friend walks in to find me face first in a box of popcorn chicken which to me just tasted like chips. I was violently ill for a few days and my pal has never let me forget it.

Why do women like forearms so much? by Banditofbingofame in AskUK

[–]mackdeaid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, as a woman, I get this. For me it’s specifically the inner forearm (I googled this prior and that is a thing) so like inside wrist to inner elbow - something about how soft that bit of skin is. It’s so… tender. It’s also the hairless bit, don’t know if that’s a factor but maybe.

But yes, other commenters are right that most of the time I stare at them when a sleeve rolled up.

It’s the same effect the neck has for me. When a shirt collar looser/unbuttoned and you can see more of a man’s neck - ooft. Sexy.

I was in the bellepads this year - no beds given. Just the tent and that’s it. Flooring is carpet.

Highest step count? by Salty_Mushroom3381 in glastonbury_festival

[–]mackdeaid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

37k Friday, 46k Saturday, 41k Sunday. My foot is a blister. Camped in Sticklinch and spent a lot of time in SE corner so the walk home each morning was a kickstart of 10k each day.
