That makes the bread soft.

My TA is autocorrect in my phone appears to have had a stroke. It keeps changing "this" to "Thai" and just recently, changed "morning" to Moishe, which is a given name from Yiddish. What??

Maybe someone/something thinks you're one of the 'chosen people'. :P
It's like a secret club with lots of perks, not unlike 'the masons'. Still, it does sound somewhat 'disconcerting' - tread carefully Antares35 :pac:

TA at stumbling, being caught off balance, falling etc in apartments.

Ya know (because when ya preface summit with 'ya know' it's accepted, without question, that everyone's in agreement :pac: ) so, ya know if you stumble in a confined space like your small living room, or bathroom that your brain takes over, and does be doing them micro-calculations so as to instruct one's limbs to do what needs to be done to save oneself from falling, or to cause least damage.. ie "Breaking my fall".

But; if the adjoinining wall is the best place to aim one's palm in the eventuality of a stumble, the brain might decide that this is not a good idea, as that 'dull thud' might be perceived as an 'aggressive act' by said neighbour; thereby entailing more 'calculations' thus increasing the possibility of injury.

The thrust of the above is that 'peaceful enjoyment' is nigh on impossible in these poorly constructed/soundproofed dwellings.

"Good neighbours build good fences" - fk all can be done about prebuilt inner walls in apartments by neighbours, be they good, bad, or indifferent.. :mad:

*long and complicated, and could use maps - for illustrative purposes.


An indicating related TA

Me, being the 'pedestrian' , and in this instance the 'oncoming driver' deigning to actually indicate

Bear with me, because 'the observer effect' comes into play here.

I'm walking down the street, or the footpath (on the right hand side).

There's a right hand turn coming up, leading into an estate or whatever, and I'm about 5-7 yards from said junction/turn.

And ahead, and coming towards me there's a car approx 60 - 80 yards ahead of me.

There is no other (in this instance/example) cars following this car.

Then the kernt? (the observer effect has come into play, so am unsure if he deserves the kernt moniker) he goes and indicates left ie the junction that I am about 5-7 yards away from, to 'stake his claim' as it were. His thinking being that I (as is more than likely with it being a 'minor street') am walking straight past the junction, and at our 'rates of acceleration' , absent his indicating we would meet somewhere in the middle of the junction with him having to yield for me - the pedestrian.

I have coined the acronym CSM (claim staking motherfu*k%r) for these types.

The reason that I am annoyed is, if he didn't see any pedestrians coming in his direction, and there were no cars behind him the CSM kernt would most likely not have indicated :mad:

TLDR a pedestrian with a beef over indicating vehicles (as opposed to the usual, and righteous beef over non-indicating vehicles)
Also - could do with maps, to provide 'clarity' - too complicated for me alas.
