Damned if I know.

I’m required to put in my time off requests by the first of Nov. for all of the following year. So I may not have all the details planned out, but I know what will happen when.

This might be a dumb question, but the answer you were given that compared to Chinese made me wonder, did you learn the alphabet? A lot of English speakers assume Korean is a symbol based language, like Chinese, and expect to have to learn a whole word by sight. But Korean has an alphabet, and words can be sounded out phonetically. “Reading” words, even if I don’t know what they mean, helps me recall meanings and decrease dictionary use for any individual word over time.

Weird that most of the comments here are about muscular women.

Who still isn’t using ublock origin?

TL/DW?

The head of lettuce singing opera whose face disolved at the end.

Have you never seen the 1969-1974 episodes? Some of those segments were written after too much acid. And then broadcast to preschoolers.

Who said several?

If you EVER limit yourself to a portion of a bar you’ve got to be the only person in the world who does that.

Consumers aren’t going to do this.

Of course not. That’s why consumer reports does it for them. You don’t believe samples are representative? That’s ridiculous.

Better check the lead levels on that one.

The kind without lead or cadmium. So I’ve pretty much cut it out. https://www.consumerreports.org/health/food-safety/lead-and-cadmium-in-dark-chocolate-a8480295550/

A friend came to me in my dreams to tell me he was dead. And he was. At least a decade prior (his death was a surprise) he told me that if he died first, and it was possible to get a message through, he would.

I don’t know what JC means, junior college? One thing that helped me figure out what to do with my life was to go through a printed (if you can still get one) college course catalog and look at every single degree program my local community college (same thing?) offered. There were career paths in there I had never considered until prompted, and some I’d never imagined. I was in my 40s, btw. So while you’re better off figuring it out now, it’s never too late.

I posted a cover of a classic Korean rock song to c/Coververse and got down voted for that. Songs I’d posted in English didn’t get that response. Idk if it was due to the fact the song was in Korean, or due to voters not recognizing the original.

My kid fell for this. They promise you’ll get paid while you learn. What they don’t tell you is that IF you manage to pass the entrance exam (he did) you get put on a list for open apprenticeship positions, waiting to be called in at any moment. While you’re on that list you don’t get paid. If you do get a spot, contracts only last a couple of months. Then you go back on the list. Rinse and repeat. And the longer you’ve been in the union the higher up you get placed on the list. So the older members get placed before the newer ones no matter what number they were in line. This “join a trade” push is similar to the charter school scam, siphoning up state and federal training funds without delivering results.

Otherwise, go learn a trade and join a union.
