      Sorry to hear about your week, hope you’re holding up. Though talking about it with someone might be helpful indeed. Would however suggest that you might want to see a therapist/counsellor instead of a psychiatrist (unless you have been seeing one, or are looking for medical help), as they might be more suited to what you may need in dealing with the stress and difficult experiences. We’ve also copied the mental health wiki over here to c/care if you’re looking for information on this. Wishing you the best!

          I see, sorry to hear that too! (But it’s not a problem - this kind of situation with therapy can happen.) Just wishing you that you’ll find some support and help you need (in professional service or otherwise) soon!

    Went to KLCC yesterday and wife asked me to get some present for her friend’s kid at Smiggle. Holy fuck, the price… Pencil case starts at RM69, RM350 for a bag. RM45 for a stationary set but only if you buy something else at full price. My friend mentioned that his 7YO nephew had lost friends because he was the only one in his circle that didn’t had Smiggle. Man, kid these days. I grew up in a upper middle-class household, having one of those multipurpose pencil case with built in sharperner & multiple drawers was the height of luxury.

      IKR? Some folks can’t even be honked at.

      I once honked at this car because he was between 2 lanes, so I honked at him thinking he was distracted or something, I overtook him (smol Kancil ftw) because I don’t want to be near a possibility drunk or tired driver. He proceeded to give me the middle finger.

        One P license plate brake checked me cause I honked at him for cutting in from the left while I was signaling to go left.

        I nearly go down the car to fight with him, only got stopped by @imaginelizard.

    Travelling with my sister but couldn’t stand how negative she is constantly stress about really insignificant stuff and she has the tendency to delegate and externalise all that to me. She picks multiple hills to die on every single day.

    Told her that I’m gonna travel by myself and walk around according to my own schedule, she‘s upset. Why the fuck would I want to suffer man, I get so stressed and anxious around her cause she’s always stressed and frankly I’m on holidays I don’t need no negativity

      Wah sounds like she’s got unresolved anxiety and (subsequently) no self-soothing skills

      Still, hope you’ve managed to get a decent holiday out of it

        Update : I came back from shopping all day, she literally started whining again complaining how tired she is, how noisy the mall was, what she saw what she bought etc… then complain I’m too loud when I’m literally just answering her out of courtesy.

        God she’s killing me ☠️

        This is what not having friend + not having a support network look like, people…

    https://paultan.org/2023/07/21/full-respray-of-your-car-from-just-rm1900-at-evx-2023-this-weekend-with-mytukar-body-paint-centre/

    Purposely went all the way down to Setia Alam to grab the deal. According to the PIC I talked to, apparently myTukar has a massive car paint workshop in USJ for a while now, but there were barely any customers. The price previously was even lower than the current promo price. Apparently the workshop has such a great capacity to do paint jobs, don’t even need to set appointment, can just walk in.

    Promo deal is valid for 3 months. RM500 deposit. FWIW the undercoat option is an additional RM800 that is to be added-on upon recommendation. Body panel repair is RM150 per panel.

    As for the EVx expo… Ok ok la. Don’t expect huge halls like KL Convec or MITEC. Parking was RM5. Got food trucks around. As expected the Tesla booth has the largest crowd. Not in a position to be changing cars yet so didn’t really go gaga over the cars there. If I was in a more leisurely mood I’d have walked over to the Setia City Mall to jalan jalan.

    Would’ve shared the above news in the transportation comm, but the ‘what do we talk about here’ thread put up quite a hostile attitude towards car topics, so malas lah nak share situ.

      I’m creating a car community soon, maybe we can have discussions about ICE, EVs etc there.

    Late at night when this thread was still freshly forged, i saw that it had zero comments and 5 upvotes.

    That means 4 lurkers skulked by in the deep of the night, upvoted it, and went away.

    I told my friend that vaping is bad for him, and it’s better that he smokes cigarettes because with the latter you smoke a lot less (need to pick timing and location so it’s an extra hurdle).

    Told him that there are some studies about young ppl having stroke vs cigarettes whereby things take a while to occur and also depends on other risk factors.

    He just stood up, walked over to the bin and binned the vape… I’m like yo wtf you didn’t have to bin it I’m just telling you what I’ve read man…

    Now I see him rolling cigarettes but my intention was for him to stop vaping and smoking as a whole…. T.T

    Got a Proton Saga as Grab, compared to previous one the NVH improved a lot but damn it’s literally a rattle box and I can feel the drive train vibrations too at idle. A 4 cylinder engine by right should not be like that

    Yikes, Good Vibes Fest got cancelled. I really hope this doesn’t leave a lasting impact on Malaysian nightlife.

      I think the organisers already l got the business connections etc.

      They will be back as something totally different. Definitely not anything that might tie them back to this scandal, but they wouldn’t just die off like that…

      The organisational talent and events market and people’s spending power can probably support replacement or alternative events.

      Hopefully…
