i didn't know uber even let you book trips that long, huh

can i have an uber driver haul me all the way across the country?

chinese ridesharing apps have a special mode for this and people actually use it. normally its like, a dude has to drive 15 hours to another city anyway so why not let a couple strangers ride along for $100 each or w/e. ive used it a few times to get places when train tickets were already sold out

my wife and i just did this for a 15 hour drive back to shenzhen a few weeks ago. it cost us about $100 plus the driver asked everyone to chip in for tolls and he also picked up 2 other guys going the same way, all through a ridesharing app

this isn't a thing in the netherlands, im afraid.

i've only recently started to realize how much of bedding is culturally determined, based on ikea changing the sizes of pillowcases they sell in the netherlands. who knew swedish pillows are smaller

i think duvet covers should just have snap fasteners or a bit of velcro sewn into the corners, or maybe the entire upper seam. but in a way that you don't feel them when you're sleeping

u sure? im pretty sure its a thing in the ikea duvet covers and idk why theyd make them differently here

the duvet cover is just a cover for the duvet. as far as i can tell, duvets are comforters that take covers. it goes over the sheet, and is not a replacement for it. for that reason it doesn't get dirty a lot unless you have big smelly long dogs that jump on the bed with you

only got dirty once in your life?

i never had duvet covers at all until we bought the cal king bed we have now when ms jones got pregnant. ms jones usually does it while i'm at work. but then i spilled something or noticed it was dirty or something so did it myself. i know this kind of pretend-to-not-understand thing is your schtick but this is feeling kinda weird

it’s ok my wife does almost all the housework too.

i just think it’s funny to have done something like that exactly once. reminds me of when a roommate asked me where the dumpster was, 8 months into us living together, revealing that he had never yet taken the trash out

out of all of these, indonesia always seemed to me to be the best option. but realistically, if you're a rich white lady, you're going to go to bali or somewhere on java where it's way too easy for non-corrupt authorities to get you, in a high profile case. there's zero chance holmes would survive life somewhere in the jungles of borneo or sumatra where a small bribe makes the local cops forget they've even ever seen a white person

same with uae and kuwait. dubai and abu dhabi are the only places she'd be caught dead, and it's not like she could blend in in one of the lower tier emirates because she'll absolutely refuse to wear an abaya

the best option would be the serb majority part of kosovo, where kosovar authorities aren't really in control. but if you're willing to do that, you might as well sell your soul to putin and live in luxury in st petersburg

indonesia? the place that will arrest foreigners for having premarital sex?

I think the problem is their whole business model is just trying to sell infinite funko pops to a relatively small number obsessive collectors or people who think they'll be able to sell them on ebay for more money later, so they just have to keep churning them out

i mean, i understand collecting stuff: i still have some beanie babies (my dogs like to play with them, now), some star war action figures (i like to play with them still! they are good for macro photos), some amiibo stuff (which have actual, if contrived, utility and are well-designed for the most part, so i like to take photos of those too), etc.

but none of that poo poo is in its original box. my beanie babies are mostly ripped up and smell like dogs, because they play with them. the star war stuff is all plastic melty

i really don't understand the funky plop stuff though. to me it seems to be what you all identified, faux nostalgia and economic speculation

e: lol typo

you let your dogs play with valuable collectors items like that???

I don't get buying stuff like funko pops just to keep them in the boxes as collectibles but to be fair I never really understood the idea of collecting baseball cards or stuff like that either and I guess people have been doing that for a long time, so it must just be some impulse that some people have

Having 500 funko pops in their boxes just seems way more inconvenient/wasteful than having a binder of baseball cards too though

Also I tend to accumulate enough crap as it is so the idea of having a zillion funko pops or gundam models or something lying around just kind of freaks me out

can i interest you in: letting your dogs play with the funkos
