Korean Beauty

What do Koreans use for their body as an everyday wash? I understand there are Korean exfoliating washcloths, but you're not supposed to exfoliate every day. Is there another type of scrub for everyday use, or is it just using the washcloth more gently or just not soaking as long?

Can someone explain Irony to me?

I understand the definition, and it makes sense; however, when I see examples I don't get how it applies or I feel like a better word describes it.

Google gives a verbal irony example like saying "what lovely weather" during a massive storm. How is this irony if the weather is already present, there was no expectation only reality.

Is this just a nuance or are there different definitions for varbal, situational, and dramatic irony?

Where do you start??

I understand that you must start with Hirigana and Katakana, but there's a lot I don't get. I've seen some charts that only show hirigana, but both hirigana and katakana have 46 characters, so do you only need to know one. Furthermore, everyoone says not to rely on romanji, but how? Does the need for Romanji disappear over time. I also feel like there's things that aren't talked about but are important, like dakutan and handakutan.

There's probably way more that I am missing, but with all of this where do you start? It seems incredibly overwhelming and causes analysis paralysis.

The story is great, along with the animation, but I hate the Magia Vander

I haven't read the manga, but throughout the entire series, Will just gets put down and ridiculed even though he saves people countless times. Then the romance is obviously him and Elfie, but it's like they are specifically keeping him from her. When Will proved he could "use" magic, he should've been allowed to pick which faction... like every other goddamn person. So why is he the only person where the factions choose for him? I would've just rathered Fin take him.

Then there is Kreutz, who just keeps adding rules to prevent Will from succeeding, and the Magia Vandor just go along with it until finally Zeo says something, but Zeo had to nearly kill Will with a fatal blow from a Magia Vander that would essentially kill anyone else just to say he has his support.

Like wtf. Is the entire story just going to be Will getting thrown around and used the entire fucking time?

M22, 5’6, 122lb

Posted a while back, but there aren’t enough lightweight physiques. I’ve also been trying to go to the gym more regularly. All are taken same day - marble counter top are right after back and bicep day, just bad quality. Others are at home after shower.

New to the dating world!!

I'm 22M and recently created a Tinder profile. I have literally never dated anyone, never had the know-how. I'm really fuckin stupid when it comes to talking to girls flirtatiously. Annnnnywho, I struggle with the number of pictures. I don't have very many pictures of myself, just not something I think guys do in general. I have only 4, and two of them are selfies.

I want to put another one on there, but it's when I had hair down to my shoulders, and a friend braided it. It's a fun picture and interesting, but would a girl like seeing this on a dating profile?

Dexter Shoes Replacement

I've worn the T.H.E 9 shoe for 7 years, but the rubber sole on my right foot is starting to detach. I could glue it, but I want a new pair anyway. What is best anymore?

I'm between SST8 Power Frame BOA, SST X Tron, SST 6 Hybrid BOA, or SST 8 BOA MC

I can't ever seem to see anyone where the Trons, nor can I ever find reviews on them. I've seen people say SST 8 is the best built, but SST 6 is more comfortable.

Thoughts on the 7 deadly sins?

Just as the title suggests. I’ve always been one to find peace with the sins in a way… I don’t know, theres just something so human about them all. I love music about them and other media. I’m not religious and have tried looking for the belief system I connect with. I’ve currently been looking into Luciferianism. I also morality and ethics as a complex matter that isn’t just black and white. Are there any belief systems that share these beliefs?

What is happening here? I’ve never had flare ups like this

I just noticed all these bumps after taking a shower. I never been one to have acne, just an occasional whitehead here and there. I don’t know what this is or what caused it.

What in the actual hell is happening in the last 2 episodes during the engagement arc? So Liselotte Eden was portraying the man Rebecca was going to marry, but for how long? There were scenes where he was acting like he was going to take her eye - was this Liselotte? Why did she do the guise in the first place... was it to make sure Rebecca was protected? How did Liselotte know that Ray's eye was bleeding, indicating a link between Rebecca and Ray?

Also, when Ray was fighting the glutton, Rebecca was saying stuff, and her sister said it was all her fault for asking for his help. When did this ever happen? I don't recall Rebecca ever asking him for help, she actually was just pushing everyone away. Plus, why did Rebecca and her sister start fighting all of a sudden at the end?

Is any of this actually explained, because I was utterly lost on these two episodes, among all the visions Rebecca was getting? Someone was disguising themselves as her fiancé and never knowing which was which, and what the hell was going on between Rebecca and her sister.

I just completed my EKG Tech course through US Career Institute and was going to sign up for a CET Exam through either NHA or AMCA. However, at least for NHA, it is required that I also perform 10 live EKG's as part of the program I completed. US Career Institute doesn't really help with the hands-on side since it's 100% online. So... how exactly am I supposed to perform 10 live EKGs when I don't have any certification? Will places let you perform them without certification or as part of shadowing?
