Lol I've always had food aggressive dogs but my current GSD is a saint by comparison. She doesn't really mess with our food and we have left food on our coffee table overnight more than once and she didn't touch it. Counter food is more than safe despite the fact that it would take her almost no effort to grab it.

The one exception is carrots. If we're chopping carrots and walk away they're as good as gone 😭

Yeah older Subarus are mint. I noticed Honda has been less reliable in general as well when I was shopping for cars. My first two cars were civics and both were great but I've heard mixed things (consumer reports) on the newer ones. I miss old Japanese cars... Simple and reliable.

I can attest, my mom has a 2017 Impreza hatchback with a manual transmission. In the first two years it was in the shop like 4-5x for various issues, the main one being wiring harness for the engine.

I've driven it a handful of times and it's a fucking pile. She regrets buying it... the shifter vibrates horribly, the car constantly shudders like it's going to stall, the interior is awful hard plastic, everything looks and feels cheap, and the car is PAINFULLY slow. The first time I tried to drive it I was literally flooring it and it felt like it was barely moving. Eco mode was off, it's just a slow car.

I'm never buying a Subaru and I recommend against it if it ever comes up. I almost bought a new WRX but after seeing what my mom went thru I got a GTI and it's been reliable. Cheaper at the time too.

Same here, I still do a lot of complex problem solving and modeling but excel/python handles a lot of the dirty work for me.

There's a place right by my house that does full English and it's heavenly.

Hi guys, I see there's no posts here yet so let's chat!

My earliest memories of misophonia were around age 6-7. My older brother was a loud eater and would tease me about my reactions, and my dad had TMJ (clicky jaw) and downplayed how it made me feel. I coped by eating quickly and excusing myself or sometimes my parents would get me a separate table when we ate out.

As an adult (37 today) I've gotten better at coping and I work with understanding people that listened when I explained it and asked my office mates to not eat at their desks.

It's still a difficult condition to live with and I avoid movies and certain social situations. I also hate confrontation it by the time I get the nerve to say something about it I'm already enraged.

How are y'all doing?

I assumed just German memes but I was always afraid to ask on Reddit. Is there a specific style of humor, or jokes about things only Germans would understand?

Danke 🙏
