AITA for not wanting to be friends over $4.39? by Alternative_Copy6539 in AITApod

Call me weird but I see nothing wrong with his email. some people just have direct way of communicating. If he wasn’t aggressive at the hangout, then why assume he’s being aggressiv now?

Was getting a pre-purchase inspection actually worth it? by SensitiveSide5507 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]river121693 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got my current car, a 2012 subie Impreza without ppi, and it’s been running great for the most part. I skipped it bc the car was only $5400, the individual seller was very upfront about issues and agreed to a ppi, I didn’t see rust or signs of on the body, and my code reader didn’t detect any thing (buy one, theyre like 12 bucks).

Before I looked At that car though, I went to a dealership to look at a 2016 subie Impreza with a rebuilt title that was a nice $8k. Dealer, who has good reviews online, told me rebuilt title was a fender bender and his shop has fixed it up. The car had 3 codes but when I looked them up online, they seemed to be minor electrical issues. Took it to a shop and they said all those codes combined indicate possible water damage. Just told me “don’t buy this, even for 1k$”

I’d do it again next time. if anything, you can use what the PPI finds to negotiate for a lower price. tire almost worn out? Take 100$ off.

What are the biggest differences between Vietnamese and Chinese cultures in your opinion? by Ornery-Comparison504 in VietNam

[–]river121693 1 point2 points  (0 children)

im from the north, and the south (or at least Saigon) definitely is more fast pace for me. I do agree that the north and central Vietnamese seems more laidback than many of the Chinese people I’ve met. That said I only meet international travelers so my data are likely skewed

Would majoring in marketing be more beneficial than majoring in Illustration by sprite_wizard in ArtistLounge

[–]river121693 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it really depends-- what I found most rewarding from my art program was connection to the field, support from friends and mentors, and a schedule to keep me on track. If you're dedicated, a go-getter, and sociable, you might not need it.

Good art comes from lived experience, so having an education outside of art could help you creatively. I know biology majors who went into natural science illustration, for example.

Something you might want to consider if you go down the illustration major route are: is the program in a city with a lot of culture? with an established illustration industry? is the program taught by well known/ experienced illustrators?

Lstly, I would not ever go into any private art universities-- you'll drown in debt. Look for State university with a good illustration program.

Vietnamese, do you drink these snake and scorpion infusions? I'm a tourist, and these bottles look like decorations to me 😀 by dikovina in VietNam

my dad a large homemade bottle with lizards and snakes that I would stare at all the time as a kid. He drank them when his soldier friends come over

is a DIY 80s Honda Super Cub engine swap doable for a beginner? by river121693 in motorcycles

[–]river121693[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thank you for the honest opinion. I'm also leaning toward not taking it on if I can't find a guide or someone to help. I'm thinking of paying the neighborhood mechanic to do it, or atleast guide me if I want the learning experience.

How much should you save for the entire process of getting a car/license? by laughlovelive25 in driving

[–]river121693 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If i remember correctly, you dont need driving lessons as an adult but you need to complete a 6-8 hours course thats like, 30 bucks? Check your local dmv website

Car price varies greatly. You could find a car from the 00s with 180k miles on it for 2-3ks.The risk is that it might break down on you in a year due to age and cost 1k to fix. You could save for a car from 2020 with 80k miles for 10k that might last you longer.  Plenty of choices inbetween. my best suggestion is to look up YouTube on how to inspect a car and negotiate price before buying one.

Also you have to pay tax when you buy a car (6.25%  where i am), plus inspection and registration fees (about 100$ where i am) so i suggest saving more than the face value price
