  • What didn't you understand before about why certain things are but now do because of your experience?

    Jump

  • The apartments with pets thing, in my building currently there’s an owner who put their dog out in the balcony at night and it would just bark for hours. I sleep at around midnight with barking in the background. I don’t even know until how late it usually does it

  • What is the weirdest dream you've ever had?

  • As a passenger in the car, whats the things a driver does that pisses you off, makes you uncomfortable, or terrifies you?

    Jump

  • No, he actually doesn’t lol. He’s generally a safe driver and would leave a safe gap if someone signals

  • My husband when changing lanes would wait until he has space, then indicates while turning. He thinks that if he indicates too early, other drivers would intentionally close gaps and not give him way

  • My husband got a ticket/points on his license doing that and that stopped him.

  • What was cancelled or discontinued that you wish wasn't or that they brought it back?

    Jump

  • Hah. That’s fair. I figured that’s what the upvotes are for. The 2 halves are quite different.

  • Mind Hunter on Netflix.

    Also JC Chasez’s second solo album that got shelved. I’ve been on an *NSYNC kick lately and would have loved more music from him.

    I live in the green part (obesity map)

    Jump

  • I’ve only visited Colorado once, during my cross country road trip maybe 10 years ago (I’ve since left the US) and loved it there. I did notice how much healthier/thinner everyone was. I was in Boulder for 2-3 days and did a couple day hikes. Everyone was very friendly. I would love to live there. As someone who’s on the higher side of normal weight, I’ve never felt so unfit.

  • What's the longest you've ever had to wait in line to vote? Where in the world?

    Jump

  • I’ve actually never gotten sausage after voting 😬

    Jump

  • Australia (Sydney). A few years ago I went and there was a queue going outside the door and volunteers were telling people that it would take 30-45 minutes but to please stay in line. They were also handing out Tim Tams for people in line. I decided to try another polling station instead, which was 10-15 minutes walk away. There was no queue at all there so I was out within a couple minutes. So that one took the longest even though most of it was walking to another location. Wish there was a way to tell the people in that queue that other locations were empty.

  • What is your horrible Food Poisoning story?

    Jump

  • I started a new job at a nice-ish office, next to a pretty fancy mall. On my 3rd day, my colleagues invited me to lunch at the food court of the mall. A couple hours later, I started getting nauseous and sweaty. Had to rush to the bathroom a couple times, which looking back I was lucky it was coming out of one end instead of two. After the 2nd time, I thought I'd chance it and rush home rather than having to go through another ~2 hours of this at the office. Luckily I lived close to the office back then so I was able to make it home. But in my rush I forgot to tell my manager, just told a coworker sitting near my desk I wasn't feeling well and left. I emailed my manager that night, telling him that I also wouldn't be able to make it in the next day. So my very first week at this job, I was only there for 2.5 days before getting sick for 1.5 days. Not the best first impression.

    I didn't know until much later, but my manager told me that he thought I hated the job and was about to quit after a couple days.

  • What's a good throwaway/single use email provider these day?

    Jump

  • I had to contact a service’s support which was email only

    How many seperate, different drinks do you have right next to you currently? Is that normal for you?

    Jump

  • None. I go to the kitchen to drink water when I need it. In the mornings, I may have a cup of coffee, which is the only drink I would bring to my desk.

  • Severence Season 2 Announced

    Jump

  • That’s sooner than I thought!

  • Which fictional character comes to your mind first when someone says strong, independent woman?

    Jump

  • Buffy. I was the right age (or maybe a bit too young) when it aired and it was the first female-led show that I fell in love with.

  • What weird false belief did you have as a kid?

    Jump

  • In my language chocolate is “coklat”, which is also the word for the color brown. So you’re not wrong

  • What's the most useless skill you've mastered, and how did you end up getting so good at it?

    Jump

  • My grandma loves miniature everything, especially cute homey things (she has sets for different “rooms”). Whenever I travel anywhere I’m always on the lookout for them cos she’d appreciate these more than the generic city/country souvenir. Always really hard to find though. These look amazing!

  • How often do you perform specific chores at home?

    Jump

  • Household of 2 adults (me and my partner), where we mostly do things that we prefer. Personally I think I end up taking charge of things that he would do less often than I would.

    • Shared: vacuum (1-2x a week), taking out trash/recycling (as needed), dishwashing, general cleaning (tables/countertops, dusting, etc)
    • Partner: cook (2-3x a week), floor mopping (as needed)
    • Me: laundry (as needed, ~1x a week), changing & washing towels (every 1-2 weeks), changing bed sheets (partner often helps, every 3-4 weeks)
