  • Same, but i just fill it with the previous or following employer in my resume.

    Whichever was the better fit is the one who gets the “between jobs” added to my starting or end date.

    It shut them up and i don’t have to make excuses for being in a time employers had zero interest in me, or tell them i was just happy eating up some savings for the oppertunity to gather my wits after years of only slaving away and sacrificing myself in the process.


  • These absurd large cars (factory setuo tho, no lift kits here) have been increasing on our roads in the Netherlands.

    I was told we pay some hefty taxes when importing these gas guzzling beasts from american origin.

    But it seems when a company does the importing it doesn’t count for some reason? These big built beasts with crawling tires the ones with treads running up the sidewalls cost a mere €50.000 when a regular old vw golf starts at €35.000.

    And the fuckers are so tall you can’t even reach the bed without a damn step.

    We don’t need those cars here because we can’t fit them. I wish all these contractors would just get vans like normal contractors do, where you can lock your shit and fit loads more in an enclosed space.






  • You won’t get me off adblock, as of recently i’ve come to find we get significantly more ads compared to friends and family.

    My dad plays wordfeud, so i install and play a set with him…about 5 seconds in i get frustrated at the 4th ad and my dad goes: “which ads”.

    My friends keep telling me i’m taking the youtube ads far too serious as they are only 10 seconds and show it to me too.

    My youtube ads are 1 minute unskippable blocks before and after 1m 51s videos. I’ll get a 1min ad block halfway into a 5 minute video even though youtube themselves claim they don’t do that.

    How the fuck am i so fucked when it comes to ads, my dads phone is almost completely ad free. Heck the google top suggestions that are basically paid for ads don’t even show up on his phone.

    He can play those free apps (advertisement feeding software) without getting any ads and he’s adamant his phone isn’t modified.






  • Stuff like this has me coming back every so often, last time i ended up just listening to music and driving around.

    Eventually i got curious when i saw a sloped wall leading to a flat roof part, i decided to go up there and check the view…turns out it had a dead assassin with a note saying he had to kill a certain person an a roof opposite…so i went there and found another dead npc, but not fitting the name of the assassin’s subject with a note saying he had to pick up the subject’s coffee and somehow also went on the roof which the subject was known to do.

    That little discovery was such a blast.


  • Mine shares reels, every 19 seconds she has something new to show.

    I try to share useful information from youtube but she doesn’t have the attention span to watch them anymore.

    So it’s a one way road and i’m trying my best to just nod and smile at the reels while keeping focus on the information i’m trying to contain from the long form video. It’s a bloody warzone sometimes, “hey, look haha. Hey, look haha. Hey, look haha”…can you give me 10 minutes please? And then she’s pissed at me.

    Short form content…i want my old wife back, can you please remove yourself from existence. You ruined her.



  • I know it’s not about me, but this definitelt cleared up why i run from people in my free time.

    They always express how they think i do things, like i’m at work or something. While i do things for joy, i take a detour home on my roadbike because the speed i can propel myself at brings me joy and a bit of a thrill too. The scenery is also very enjoyable.

    But then another roadcyclist shows up and tells me how i’m doing it all wrong, how speed isn’t a good measurement of performance.

    Fuck yo performance brother, stop. It ruins my fun.



  • Same tbh, but when i look at my wage and how rent gobbles up 70% while groceries take another 20%…i cannot afford it.

    Tough luck on them because i will just use it ad free for free. Just because my wage is ass doesn’t make me less of a human where it gives them the right to waste my time inside my own private living space.

    I paid for this space and i pay for this internet connection, i’m the one who’s in charge here.
