  • You have permission to be really really gay, yes

  • Purely by accident, I can assure you

  • Oh lordy ... I'm in torment, my other half is such a bottom and loves to be bossed around in everyday life. But she isn't kinky at all. Like zero :-/

  • Fantastic typo there, 10/10 :-)

  • We don't - in Spain there's an inspection every 2 years, and it's very basic (like, do the brakes work? Is the engine smoking?)

  • Yup, as a British immigrant to Spain there is precisely 1 other British person who lives here that I talk to ... most I've met have zero interest in the language, culture, or people outside of touristy things.

    Meanwhile, I'm working in Vietnam at the moment, and my Spanish coworker's who came with me have the same attitude towards Vietnam.

    So, I think most people just aren't interested in the realities of different lived experiences of others. Sometimes in conversation I'll dangle a lure for someone to ask me about an atypical part of my life, and 9 times out of 10 they show no curiosity.

  • Well, it doesn't need signals or crossings because people can cross freely (unlike the US), the traffic speed is lower, and drivers know to look for pedestrians, cyclists and scooters ... but Vietnam does lack decent public transport.

    The flipside is that no part of the older cities is set up for public transport (hell, lots of houses are only accessible on foot or by scooter) and there's little money for putting in infrastructure that can't also help move freight - during rush hour that 10 lane road is 7 lanes of trucks and 3 of scooters.

  • It's bizarre to me that some people don't want to put any effort into their personal safety, regardless of the cause of potential danger.

    I've got used to crossing 10 lanes of traffic, at night, with no street lights or marked crossings, because I'm working in Vietnam and that's just how it is in one particular spot. It's my responsibility to navigate that safely, and part of that is making sure I'm visible.

  • They are, it was an exclamation of surprise at Bowser's ... dimensions

  • Ok, well I hope that works for you, then!

  • Sorry to hear that, I hope you find your way to a better place!

  • I ... don't really understand this.

    I'm unashamedly weird. If someone treats me weirdly because of it, then I know that's someone I don't need to spend effort thinking about (a very handy social shortcut IMO)... if I felt bad because of it, then my weirdness wouldn't be unashamed

  • Never mind, Tarragona is better anyway :-P

  • Sorry, whenever I wish I try to make it monkey-paw proof!

  • The thing that's usually stopped me has been simply the amount of space in the bed ... plus other practical limitations like if it's winter how do you stay wrapped up and do it, etc

  • Oh that's just evil

  • Ooh, good wish ... only don't make it a show, make it a life, because people on shows are only acting and the spaceships aren't real

  • Needs more diagrams

  • Just touched down back in my home country for a week for lunar new year ... gonna make the most of it once jet lag wears off.

    The year of the horse will be my year!
