  • I unintentionally make people buffer when they say “How are you” and I just answer with “good” and don’t return the question. There’s usually a second of dead silence because they expect to get it back and answer. I’m not used to asking a rhetorical question as a greeting, and prefer to just just say Hi or Hey.













  • I use navigation a lot even on familiar regular commutes because of chaotic traffic in my city. Having it displayed on a bigger screen than my phone is definitely better and safer. Apple or Google isn’t embedded into the car, the infotainment system just mirrors your phone. Also, since my phone and its apps already have my data, I might as well just have it mirrored instead of also sharing my data with yet another entity (car manufacturer proprietary apps). And yes, I’m not naive and I know there’s already a bunch of tracking embedded into the car itself. Having brand-agnostic tech that works on any vehicle is the better option.



  • Because these houses are located in remote, rural areas. They have been abandoned because people are moving closer to the cities or the owners are old/dying and they can’t continue maintaining them. The money you save from the initial purchase will all come out of the expenses to renovate and maintain the house because a lot of them are run-down.

    Of course if you’re the type who wants to live in the middle of nowhere, and you have the money and skills to renovate, this can be for you.
