Ciao a tutti!
Ho visto che non è un tema nuovo ma è da un po' che non se ne parla e magari qualcuno ha qualcosa di nuovo da dire o aggiungere.
Devo ancora mandare giù la furbata di Capodanno fatta da Hype e, da allora, rimugino su quale carta usare come rimpiazzo. Oltre a quella furbata, trovo Hype poco innovativa ed alquanto stagnante, ha smesso di essere una startup ed è diventata una delle tante banche che non si inventa nulla di nuovo (a dire il vero, non che è sia mai stata pioniera in qualcosa...).
Adesso mi sembra di aver trovato un degno rimpiazzo: Vivid.
Di PRO che trovo utili mi sembra che ce ne siano tanti: È COMPLETAMENTE GRATUITO (esclusi i bolli >5k€), compreso il primo invio della carta fisica ed i bonifici, permette la creazione di vari conti a cui può essere collegata la carta a piacimento, mi sembra che permetta di avere conti in EUR ed in AUD assieme sul mio account, cosa che a me tornerebbe molto utile, permette di fare qualcosa con le crypto (non competerà coi grandi exchange ma per me che magari ci butto 50€ ogni tanto, schifo non fa), cambio valuta gratuito a patto di cambiare la valuta prima, Apple Pay e, dulcis in fundus, 20€ di benvenuto.
CONTRO: non permetta la creazione di carte virtuali monouso (ma si può aggirare col sistema dei vari conti che si possono collegare alla carta, basta tenere la carta collegata ad un conto vuoto e spostarla su un altro quando necessario)
Mi sono perso qualcosa? Qualcuno che ce l'ha, può darmi qualche parere? C'è di meglio?
Grazie!
I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.
Welcome back Middle-come-what-may (Ok this is getting ridiculous...apologies) Middlemarch fans. What a great couple of chapters. As always thank you for the insightful comments and discussions last week. In the post is a brief summary, some references and then a squillion questions in the comments. Alternatively ask your own questions or just offer you own thoughts and observations. To Middlemarch folks....
SUMMARY
Mary Garth sits with Peter Featherstone through the small hours of the night. She enjoys the stillness and chance to reflect on the day. She predicts the Vincy's will be disappointed by Peter's Last Will and Testament. Peter offers Mary money and asks her to help him burn one of the two will's he has prepared. She refuses both knowing she would risk suspicion. She makes many alternative suggestions, but Peter refuses them all. Even though he cries childishly Mary refuses to back down, and he eventually becomes fatigued and passive. Peter Featherstone passes away with a key to his will in one hand and a pile of gold and money under the other. End of Book 3.
- Book 4 starts with Peter Featherstone's elaborately self-planned funeral. There are 3 mourning coaches, and mounted pall bearers. From the upper window of Lowick manor Mrs. Cadwallader, the Chettam's (incl. the recently married Lady Celia) and Dorothea watch the funeral and gossip together. Mr. Brooke arrives looking for Mr. Casaubon who is working in the library, though he shouldn't be due to his ill health. Dorothea becomes instantly different in Mr. Casaubon's presence. Mr. Brooke informs them all that Will Ladislow is staying at the Grange with him, and that he intends to hire him as secretary. Mr. Casaubon pretends it does not bother him, but Dorothea can see that it does, and worse, that he believes it was Dorothea's intention that Mr. Brooke host Will at the Grange.
REFERENCES Nothing too obscure this week just a few definitions and clarifications.
- Harpagon = a very selfish and miserly person. Something Peter Featherstone was referred to as not being.
- Testator = a person who has made a will or given a legacy in reference to Peter Featherstone.
- Lien = a right to keep possession of property belonging to another person until a debt owed by that person is discharged. Mr. Casaubon is said to have "a lien on the land in the shape of a tithe" and one of the reasons Peter Featherstone didn't like him.
- Cush and Mizriam = Biblical: Ham's sons
Do your worst!
I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂
It really does, I swear!
Because she wanted to see the task manager.
Heard they've been doing some shady business.
They’re on standbi
Pilot on me!!
Nothing, he was gladiator.
Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
What did 0 say to 8 ?
" Nice Belt "
So What did 3 say to 8 ?
" Hey, you two stop making out "
When I got home, they were still there.
I won't be doing that today!
Or would that be too forward thinking?
Where ever you left it 🤷♀️🤭
This morning, my 4 year old daughter.
Daughter: I'm hungry
Me: nerves building, smile widening
Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.
She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.
Thank you all for listening.
