Fender-sempai am rosebudded. His life am in tatters. I knew psy-kun would like it as he hates IPA craft beers.
By s y ngmi Go To PostIn hindsight, I should have never even considered fenderputty's opinion, considering he enjoys IPAs aka literal dog piss.
sy with a legit point
By Destiny's Abortion Go To PostI've been trying to find Pilsners that don't taste like bland shit.Not a huge pilsner fan.
Like certain amber ales tho... my favorite beer is Mac and Jack's
By Fenderputty Go To PostJapanese beers suck lol. Not even that hot of a take. Watch Psy like them and prove my point.
Japanese beers don’t suck. Japanese lagers are decent, especially compared to the internationally available American ones. If you are comparing lagers to other types of beers then that is different story.

Pilsners are my least favourite type of beer along with wheat beer.
By giririsss Go To PostHonestly, those deals were great in the convenience stores.
but there are some solid korean craft breweries too. Hit that up.
Yeah, I usually do when I am out, especially Magpies, but they don't reallys stock good stuff in the convenience stores.
By DY_nasty Go To PostWait til Psy finds out about sangriawill he make it?
By Apollo Go To PostLate but IPA's are disgusting
Most Asian beers pair really well with food
Unless it's Tsingtao. That beer fucking stinks.
By Shanks D Zoro Go To PostThe Korean-Japanese trade war finally hit me.
I haven't bought or drunk alcohol in Korea the last 11 days.
Went to my local conveinence store to buy a couple of cans of Sapporo and saw they had none in stock. So meant I had to walk 150 metres to the next branch and saw that they had moved the Saps down to the bottom of the shelf, and were no longer included in the four for ten deal.
Fuck this shit, means I will have to pay 6 quid extra for them. Saps were always my go to beer. I knew they would be in every store, while Peroni stocking would be patchy.
Fuck Abe.
1.) I`m sorry
2.) Yea fuck Abe
lol we havent had AC at work in months because they're too cheap to fix it
its been about 90 degrees inside all summer
it takes an act of god to get me to get up from my desk and move out the path of my fan.

Quit
get heat exhaustion and file an OSHA complaint
lost productivity from 90 degree heat would far outweigh fixing the AC.

It's amazing how short sighted people are about this shit.
By Destiny's Abortion Go To PostSurprised no one has just straight up fainted at work under those conditions.
me too.
Feels like, for the first time in 30 years, I'm on the path to having an actual life/self-sufficiency/upward movement/self-control.
I'm just waiting for it to go haywire.

By Smokey Go To PostCongratsWhen I get promoted next year so I can get 10 grand to move for work
So when's the move
By HasphatsAnts Go To PostMy parents are getting old…How much you making, how much of them can you stand, do they live near you or elsewhere? What assistance do they qualify for?
I don't know how I'm gonna be able to take care of them. :/

"I hate to interrupt you guys but I need someone to take me to the hospital."
*team gets up thinking we need to lockdown office and get her moving quick while assessing immediate health priorities*
"The approving authority just signed off on our memo and I'm just so happy"
This fucking shitpiece I work for
Who the fuck pumpfakes a medical emergency?

By Fenderputty Go To PostAre you thinking you’ll eventually have to move back, man?
I genuinely do not know. :/
By HasphatsAnts Go To PostI genuinely do not know. :/
hopefully you can figure something out. You have other family to help or will this fall onto your shoulders squarely?
I’m an only child.
China, baby!
It’s alright. They have insurance, but my parents both have history of heart problems and high blood pressure and my dad just told me he was diagnosed with glaucoma the other day. it’s not anything urgent now but I’m so scared they might lose their jobs and health coverage.

They’re 55. Another 10 years before they qualify. I used to not think about this much, but these days whenever I go to sleep, in the back of my head I’m like, “I hope I don’t get a call in the middle of the night”
You could/should have a talk with them (which people just generally don't) about this. What would they want if either one was hospitalized or died. People really don't have these discussions and when the time comes nothing is lined up which makes for an even shittier time on top of the grief and shock. Basically you're already in a bad position to be making any serious decisions (when shit hits fan) but have no choice in the matter as finances, living situations, DNR all get thrown in your lap and need to be settled asap. Do some living trusts and health care directive discussions now.
Better start thinking about moving back to Georgia so you can keep an eye on them.
They raised you, right?

Always feel like I should be doing more on my off days. I go to the gym, go outside, but it still leaves me with a ton of free time that I waste on things that don't feel very fulfilling like playing old games, watching movies or reading books. Feel like I want to learn or better myself with that time, but I don't really know what or that I should get a second job for my off time. Like I can't fully relax so I might as well make use of the time. Feels kind of guilty.

There’s nothing wrong with relaxing?
Take up woodwork or something
Filial piety :(
I've been supporting my parents with stuff (notably almost 10k, [maybe over? Who is counting lol] this year...) But whatever. Gotta do what I gotta do. Love my parents haha
Things could be worse though. My dad has been back in Taiwan for healthcare. Family would probably be bankrupt now if he didn't have healthcare there. Been almost 2 years since he was diagnosed with lung cancer.

I'm bad at making friends on the Internet. Much less getting fans/followers and whatnot. I don't even know if that's what a person with my personality type needs to be healthy. I may just lack whatever skills are necessary to easily connect with people via interactive text.
It's a lot easier to make friends in person, but I spend half my free time online, so the loneliness and inferiority is constant. At times it feels like the thoughts in my head are better kept locked behind my refined interpersonal social skills than structured and crapped out on social media for a grand total of no one to respond to. Over and over I've feared that without the social expectations (facial expressions, verbal conversation, etc) that come from being in the same room, people would just ignore me. Like in my most pure, concentrated form, I would be unpleasant and unappealing to the majority of humans.
Or maybe it's just that other humans that are most like me on the inside naturally (and perhaps unconsciously) avoid reminders of themselves to avoid exacerbating the spiral, and that's just a side effect of that particular nature.
All this to say less anonymous outlets like Facebook, IG, Twitter and the rest just really fucking destroy me mentally and emotionally. But that's socializing now. That's staying up to date. I just don't think I'm built for whatever we have going on at the moment.
I know extreme connection and social fulfillment, even over the Internet, is based on random factors. But that's not much solace for a consciousness honed by billions of years of evolution to look for patterns and meaning. The point is that I don't like myself, and so I try to create a version of me I think people will like, and when/if no one does, I like myself less, and the cycle continues.
Very few of us want to feel alone, meaningless, etc. Using social media is a huge risk for people like me: weird, unrelatable, and esoteric, yet over-obsessed with themselves and how other people see them. I'm the kind of person who can easily lose their mind by overthinking things. Do I need outside affirmation to be happy? Is human connection via these new platforms just intrinsically devastating to people like me? Is there a better way? Or, in order to ascend out of apparent obscurity and rejection from the Internet masses like I believe is necessary, am I doomed to always be forced to express my personal reflections in a way that makes people comfortable?
