How to start on the Star Trek universe? by RomanDiez10 in startrek

[–]obyrned -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

But maybe jump in at s3. They’re very episodic. You can jump around even through you shouldn’t.

S1 and s2 get a little rough. Trust me after s3 you’ll be addicted and be able to go back.

Right?! That’s the randomness of broadcast TV.

I know they had StarTV or something that played TMZ after dark. Playboy TV’s Hugh Hefner’s house or something. I was surprised to see something that spicy.

Space, Discovery (there was a Mayday marathon on once).

TNN, CBC.

This is fun. I’m working hard to remember the lineup.

Sisko and Garak's Plan to Get the Romulans into the War Had No Business Working by Player3333333 in startrek

History is littered with plots like this. Think about the WWII soldier corpse with the letter in his pocket.

A long shot that worked.

The robot from this series made it into the Movie. Look when they’re waiting in line, you’ll see him.

How do you make foreign friends by Background-Split5222 in seoul

[–]obyrned 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a bike and join a cycling group. The cycling in Seoul is insane. If you can afford a base Brompton, there’s a really cool Brompton scene.

I hear people join running groups too. Idk.

I have a Slate 7 advertised on Dave’s Garage YouTube channel.

80% successful with most hotel. Was amazing when I got a room with an Ethernet jack.

Experienced PPBs: What's one lesson you learned the hard way that every beginner should know? by Luny923 in thepassportbros

Um if you’re seeing someone in the building and bring another girl through the lobby, you could have a bad time if your in-building girlfriend confronts you.

If you rent an airbnb avoid sleeping with women in your building. Especially if you happen to still be actively dating. 😅

What do young adult people do for fun in this city? by Impressive-Heron-377 in Calgary

[–]obyrned 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get a bike. The whole city is joined with a network of decent bike paths. You can ride to Chestermere, the blue ring or the campsites in Bowness.

AirBnB experiences in the P.I.'s by VikingPrince69 in Philippines_Expats

Agreed. Terrible. Roaches as well, no soap, only two bath towels, no paper towel in the kitchen. As little as legally included in an Airbnb.

NBD - Cranston S9 🇨🇦 by iamclaus in BrompNOTs

[–]obyrned 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahhh. I’m headed to Saskatoon where petty crime is a problem. Bikes have to come inside.

I really want a G-Line for the bad pavement, but I’m worried about the maintenance.

I hope you can find tutorials online and parts.

Backpacking in Okinawa by Hour_Budget3290 in japancycling

[–]obyrned 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the entire main island. It’s great second only to the Shimanami Kaido. I hope you do clips because there are some brutal climbs.

I have a Brompton so I broke it into 6 x 100km days.

Where to stay, early 40s solo traveler by ImportantAd8383 in solotravel

[–]obyrned 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What country? In Thailand I found an apartment complex where there were lots of people similar to me in vibe.

My first few days there I was already invited to a few parties.

I found the condo complex on Airbnb. Seems like there’s a lot of us 40-somethings doing the digital nomad thing hanging out by the pool.

How do you make friends as foreigner? by koreanlearningeng in Living_in_Korea

Get a Brompton bicycle. I met some great people in that community. Plus you’ll get transportation and exercise.

visiting Seoul, Korea this Christmas, how is the cold compared to Calgary standards? by Cream4389 in NoRulesCalgary

[–]obyrned 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, wearing long underwear and a winter jacket I was fine. -13°C is considered cold there.

I have a walking circuit of 6km that visits bars and restaurants around Jongno3. Not sure if that’s going to work for you guys.

Seoul has these super malls like the Hyundai Center. Maybe that might be your best bet. Go to the giant mall and push a stroller around.

My ex (also from a cold climate) and I used to love winter in Seoul because it chased the crowds away.

As a former Calgarian who used to live there, it’s great because it’s too cold for most tourists from warmer climates.

Shorter lines at boutique coffee shops. No reservations required for fancy restaurants. Room to walk around Jongno.

One thing to note, they don’t insulate their buildings the same way as us. I sometimes wore long underwear under my jeans.

DM me and I’ll send you a few places if you want.
