As an adult in general, time needs to slow the fuck down.
I got to throw the 16th in there for my cake day…
I really hope you mean your birthday and not your Reddit cake day.
Correct, bad habits. Fuck Reddit!
Mood. I always tack an extra Christmas day after the 25th for my cake day on the 29th
That’s not true there is st Niclas day on the 6th when I buy myself some walnuts and tangerines. Otherwise correct.
The 1st because that is when bills are due. Everything else is a blur.
More like the 26th here, that’s when almost every company executes their direct debit. Manually paying bills is, with a rare exception, not a thing here anymore.
The 1st is the date I think off when I finally remember to turn over the birthday calendar around the 20th and have to decide whether or not I’m going to skip to the next month. 😋
I can relate. I either refuse to do autopay with most bills (Geico can suck it) or, in the case of my ISP bill, I pay it manually before the autopay comes out to save $15 in fees.
You’d be hard pressed to find a company that still allows/accepts manual payment here, for recurring payments it’s basically mandatory to use direct debit. At the other hand, manually paying wouldn’t save on any fees.
Are those 15 bucks a banking fee?
No, the company charges $15 more if you don’t do auto pay. They market it as a discount for doing autopay.
Maybe they are trying to nudge you in the right direction.
Sounds like a pain in the ass to manually pay bills. It’s all auto pulled from my account. I just have to make sure the account has a lot of money on it.
I am also not doing any income taxes these last few years because I just accept whatever they calculated and kept.
Could not be bothered
It’s more like …
“Merry Chr…”
“What are you doing? It’s Easter”
Hot Cross buns on shelves in mid December?! Madness
There’s also that weird week haze between the 25th and the 1st where copious amounts of cheese counts as a valid breakfast
That’s called ‘being Dutch’ 😀
its not weird, its glorious- that is my 100% favorite time of the ENTIRE YEAR by a factor of two hundred billion.
This year down to the way the weekend falls with new years day being a thursday, Ive decided not to go to work on the friday either, meaning this magical period where no one really expects anything of each other (here in ireland anyway) goes straight to the god damned monday the 5th.
when I used to live in the states id do hours on the 24th sometimes, then back on the 25th. when I moved to ireland for what I thought was gonna be a couple years the college basically wrapped up at like december 14th and didnt start back up until like jan 3rd. never going back.
That’s a special available all year.
In Europe St. Nicolas is quite a big deal on the 5th or 6th, also Christmas eve on the 24th
5th is wrong and is Dutch only, they also enslave someone called piet. 2/10 Holland.
It’s been a looooooooong 1.
Very US-defaultist and very christian-defaultist.
Where is St. Nikolaus? 24th and 26th are missing. What about Chanukka?
Why don’t you make one for your country instead of just complaining?
Is critique not allowed? Or trying to get others more international- thinking, opening others’ horizons?
