Pretty excited and worried to start my life. Honestly haven't got any plans

It's okay, just one step at a time and you'll be fine!

Being so stress and depressed these two days, starting to feel physically uncomfortable at chest area. I hope I'm ok.

Anyway how are you guys doing?

I woke up to an fb marketplace listing of mine going viral - 76 views and 11 saves in just a couple of days of relisting. This is a niche camera equipment btw, listed for 5 weeks already.

Sold it yesterday for well below market value. I should have deliberated the buyers offer for a bit longer and wait for offers instead of just saying yes to his lowballing and sell it to him… oh well.

penanglang@monyet.cc · 2 pts · 3y (5 replies)

Sorry to hear that... I tend to do that too! Especially when something been sitting around for a while with no bites. We've heard of buyer's regret, I guess this can be called seller's regret, haha

dukeGR4@monyet.cc · 2 pts · 3y

maybe i've been desensitised by too many lowballers, the moment someone acts decent I will go out of my way to close the deal...

I will be putting up another camera of mine to flip, essentially 50-70% of pure profit, here's to hoping that the market and its players will treat me nice lol

I swore I've heard of that before, must be a drug, or a condom or something...

Googled it, it's the heartwood of trees.

Why are testicular implants a thing?

rakyat@monyet.cc · 2 pts · 3y (5 replies)

Wait what are those?

OldManGenghis@monyet.cc · 1 pts · 3y (4 replies)

Fake boobs but for balls

munkkey@monyet.cc · 3 pts · 3y (3 replies)

Guess it's to fill the gap after removing a cancerous testicle, and not purely for aesthetic purpose.

rakyat@monyet.cc · 1 pts · 3y

Ah interesting! That makes more sense

ruk_n_rul@monyet.cc · -1 pts · 3y (1 reply)

Was driving and the AWD failed and I drove home with just FWD haha.

When I got home it fixed itself and I have AWD again.

What's the English version of "dapat betis nak peha?" 🤔

munkkey@monyet.cc · 3 pts · 3y (1 reply)

Give them an inch and they will take a yard/mile? Quite wordy I know.

ruk_n_rul@monyet.cc · -1 pts · 3y

I looked it up and the strangest result appears: camel's nose.

Apparently it's a Victorian era, and Victorian made, idiom about an Arabian idiom of letting just the camel's nose in the tent, which eventually results in the entire camel being under it.

truckdrifter2@monyet.cc · 1 pts · 3y

Literal? Get calf, want thigh

Figurative? Hmm... maybe 'Wants a ton for an ounce?'

Annoyed_Crabby@monyet.cc · 0 pts · 3y (2 replies)

Give an inch take a foot?

munkkey@monyet.cc · 0 pts · 3y (1 reply)

I also first thought of that Chinese proverb, which is literally "get an inch, advance to a foot".

Annoyed_Crabby@monyet.cc · 1 pts · 3y

Yeah, dunno which based on which, both is being used widely
