Perhaps eyes popping in disbelief? I didn't get it either.

I wouldn't do that. It sounds like a full time job, of which I assume you already have. To me it would feel weird, like a power imbalance.

What happens when you don't have time or energy to complete your tasks. Will he kick you out? Is your name on the lease?

Organising clothes and belongings is something I'd only do for family.

But, you know your roommate best, so do what you feel is right.

Maybe you can do a one month trial run?

Sounds like Rakuten!

Worryingly, examination of those recently deceased has found high levels of dihydrogen monoxide in their bodies, leading scientists to ponder whether every person who knowingly or unknowingly consumes this chemical will actually one day die.

Here in Japan, travel agents are still around. The brick and mortar ones have actually branched out to offer their services online, too.

I assume they mostly survive on people who want to book a package tour, which are insanely popular here.

Some of them will now charge a consultation fee whether you buy something or not, so you can see how the industry is hurting.

Although I'm not a boomer, I did use one last year as they are great for just showing you all the options in a very clear way. With just an hour to spare to book a family trip, it was the way to go (for me at least).

I do think that next time I will use them to consult, but then book online to avoid their fee. Also, it seems that booking though the agent makes the ticket less flexible (the airline will lock out some parts of their website and tell you to have the agent do the thing which you wanted to)

So, yeah, it'll be just like shopping. Go to the store to look and get info, then buy online to save money.

It would except for the fact that shoe sizes here, from babies to adults are only sized in centimetres. If there are international sizes printed on the shoes, they have no meaning to residents in Japan. Check the tag inside your shoes; If they have international sizes printed on them, you'll see Japan's is in centimetres, and may have EE (or more Es) next to it to denote width. If there is nothing, then they are standard width.

Children's clothing is also sized in centimetres. Makes things really simple.

No trash cans in the parks around here. Train stations tend to only have trash cans on the platforms, not inside the station (just my experience, not definitive). You just learn to carry your trash with you until you find somewhere to dispose of it. I don't see the big deal. If you do buy something from a street vendor say in a park or at a festival, they will provide a way to dispose of it. Also, it is not so common to eat whilst walking, so it reduces the problem considerably.

Hey be careful there. The heat may also melt the glue holding all the panels together lol

Bundle, flipboard, NHK News

University would have been a better example.

Silly question, but have you already set up family sharing? Are you able to access other services included in the subscription!

It finally lets you select the display language! Hurray! Scrolling is still choppy AF though. It's basically the same as the mobile app, which isn't saying much.

I haven't had this since I was a kid, but I used to take two pieces of toast, put Nutella on one slice, and margarine and Vegemite on the other… and then sandwich them together and chow down. Sweet and savory and umami all at the same time. Don't know if I would do that these days, though.

Same, but in Japan.

Internal sensor for tire pressure monitoring system? Was looking at some last night lol

They mean the weekly sales start on Wednesday and run until the following Tuesday. The next day (Wednesday) a different set of products will go on sale for a week.

That would be great to be honest. I have many shopping lists in reminders named as the stores which I frequent, with one catch all called “shopping” they are in a group called “shopping” because of course they are. Until recently adding reminders worked like “Siri add xyz to my shopping list”. But now Siri pops up saying “do you mean shopping, or shopping?” And clicking either option results in an error that the app needs to be opened. How fucking stupid can it be? One isn’t even a list! Works fine from my Apple Watch though. Changed the category to “to buy” because fuck me, right?

I just upvoted you by purpose. There. Sounds weird, right?

As someone who also grew up in the commonwealth, I can’t remember ever hearing anyone say “on accident”. And it seems that “on accident” is grammatically wrong (not that we all have to speak with perfect grammar, but just pointing it out). I’m sure I’ll get downvoted for this but whatever. “On accident” also grated at me lol.
