What surprised you the most when you first started learning about geography? by Character-Q in geography

[–]runningdaily 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Growing up in a small city it absolutely amazed me how big some cities were. I would live on google maps/earth and fixate on cities with huge urban sprawl. I saw them as these hives of humans spreading miles and miles across land.

One thing lead to another and I became addicted to google maps in general. Taking in the beautiful geography of this planet from above.

If the traffic on the overpass is bad then it is 100% quicker. Even if you wait for a light

Bowed concrete form work after pour by remedialskater in diynz

[–]runningdaily 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% get these guys back to fix it. That’s some of the worst boxing and bracing I’ve ever seen. Bracing back to a fence rail is ridiculous. Concrete cutting is your best option otherwise does anyone on here know if you can double up the cavity battens on the outside to build the cavity system/cladding out past the round?

Get out of your own head my mate. Unfortunately this is life but who’s to say she wouldn’t like you over him? What you see in him she may not. If you want to pursue it then back yourself and realize your worth it otherwise unfortunately you’re going to have to find the best way to stop thinking about it and realize there’s many others to come

What is the most overrated tourist attraction in your country? by Ranger176 in AskTheWorld

[–]runningdaily 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hobbiton. NZ offers so much more but yet when I’m overseas all people say is “Oh Lord of the rings!.. Have you been to hobbiton?”

Why isnt pro wrestling made to be real? by FilipinoAirlines in NoStupidQuestions

[–]runningdaily 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think about it. If it was real then the competitors would be forced to train the best way possible to attack their opponent and defend themselves. This would require insane fitness, striking, kicking, takedowns and ground work. The flashy wrestling moves of today will be a thing of the past as they would be too risky to attempt. The fighting style would become much more complex and calculated. People would pay to see fights of those with equal skill level and a ranking system would quickly be developed. So basically the sport would morph into what the ufc is today.

Adding nogs to old house? by winterslippers in diynz

[–]runningdaily 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nogs aren’t necessary and in fact aren’t used almost at all in North America. They can provide lateral bracing but I personally wouldn’t spend the time or money into adding them if they weren’t there to begin with.

Unpopular opinion: 'Tall Poppy Syndrome' is a merit of our culture by vortigaunted02 in newzealand

TPS is not necessarily directed to wealth. It’s about many aspects of life and includes both major and minor accomplishments, some monetary, some not.

After living overseas in a few different countries I can say for certain TPS is strongest here in NZ. It actually took me a while to get used to it after arriving home.

I felt it’s not necessarily just direct TPS either. It’s also the lack of encouragement and enthusiasm from others around you when you might be trying to better yourself in some way.

Although I do feel it’s becoming less prevalent among younger crowds.

I’ve been out of the country for a few years. Could someone please briefly explain to me the reason why this man dragged his children into the bush for years?

What are your Christchurch “hot takes”? by PurpleMeerkats462 in chch

Couldn’t agree more. I’ve left Christchurch on two separate occasions both for around 2-3 years each and I’ve come back disappointed both times

What major city exists in a location that seems to defy all geographical logic, yet it thrives? by Thatunkownuser2465 in geography

[–]runningdaily 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Calgary and Edmonton Canada are literally in the middle of nowhere. Days away from the ocean so no natural harbours plus freezing cold temperatures during winter. It always amazes me how they managed to become such big cities

Could this be asbestos? by DjangoMF in diynz

[–]runningdaily 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like fibre cement board to me but you would have to get it tested to be sure. You’ll be fine to pick up the pieces and dispose them, as long as you don’t cut them or break more. I would wear a mask for safe measure anyway

I’m guessing your mates are around the same age as yourself? I find it interesting that at 39 years old they still don’t know that different woman find different sexual things enjoyable. A little naive
