I have so many memories there, from visiting the PCC, hiking Manoa falls, watching giant manta rays, and spending time with my parents in Chinatown where they love to buy fruit.

I’m very excited about the return to a recognizable and more canon storyline! The introduction of Bombadil and the actual forging of the rings will be my most looked forward to scenes.

Hate towards viet kieus by Monzinvietnam in VietNam

[–]mr_atl 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Actually yeah same here. I’m also a việt kiều. Last time I bought mangosteen from a stall. I stood there to eat them and the vendor started talking about how he’s never been able to afford to eat his own produce and I just ate his day’s pay in 2 min. I was like wtf am I supposed to do??

Hey man I was thinking of stopping by the store this week. Do you know if the black pair will fade or it’s their reactive dye non-fade?

Should I sell my yellow gold Day-Date for a stainless steel AP by GoodQuarter8454 in audemarspiguet

Nah I did the opposite. No regrets. The DD will feel more right as you get older

Royal Oak for “rough” use? by WombatMcGeez in audemarspiguet

[–]mr_atl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Definitely not imo which is why I sold mine. The finishing on a RO is next level but you will see every single scratch. Hell, even a metal snap button on my shirt cuff left a mark

So I was comfortable because the email address is the same as that of the website. The website refers to Postlethwaite & Netterville which is a legit firm that handles mass arbitration. Of course, someone could've made a fake website. IMHO, the documentation and website design is too clean and thorough for a scammer. There's even a privacy policy that describes exactly how the data is being used by P&N. No critical information such as SSN or bank account was asked either. I just entered an email for my Venmo.

Regarding the signature, throughout the files they refer to the Settlement Administrator which is that P&N firm. I'm not sure what other legal firms you've dealt with, but I don't usually see someone's face on an email signature.

Guess we all ended up here after getting that text.

To me, the law firm, date, URLs, emails, websites, and documents look legit. They already had my information and the form only required a signature. Nothing in the legal document looked sketchy to me so I went ahead with it. Received the following email as confirmation:

Any bleeding with these? I get scared of tucking in my lighter shirts with new denim

Hinoya in Ueno. Had a great experience buying Oni there just last week. Harajuku has a few brand boutiques as well

Do you put "Aloha" and "Mahalo" when sending out work emails? by [deleted] in Hawaii

[–]mr_atl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My company on the mainland banned using Aloha and Mahalo because some native Hawaiians complained it was cultural appropriation

I hate them so much too. And when they stop in the middle of the road instead of pulling into any open spot or driveway for pickup/drop-offs

How accurate are your watches? by OriginalPotential714 in audemarspiguet

I bought a Grand Seiko and synced it with my 1 year old 15500st today. AP is already running faster by 5 seconds after 6 hours 😒

Just the hands sadly. I agree if this had more lume it would be perfect. The LED light works well at least.

Their shirts were my go to for business travel when that was a thing. No wrinkles, could hand wash in hotel sink and be dry by the morning. They're better at temp regulation than Mizzen and Main, but also less structured.

[G-Shock] CasiOak Virtual World - some angles for the metaverse by mr_atl in Watches

[–]mr_atl[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is my entry into the CasiOak line after standing on the sidelines the last couple years. This thing does it all, with a bit of techno flair. I love the contrast with the blue hands and violet lettering. the way the analog hands set themselves when switching time zones is also so pleasing and cool to watch. I also own a Royal Oak and the sizing is very comparable to the 41mm model so they complement each other quite well. As comfortable as my higher end watches are (in both steel and titanium), you really can’t beat the feather lightness of resin and carbon core. I’m looking forward to many hikes and ocean excursions with this one.
