I always thought the left turner always goes last. The only exception is when there is a flashing green left turn signal for the left turner. |
Hey, how do you guys decided on who gets what room when you rent an airbnb? Just curious what you guys do. Let's say there are three couples+ |
Battle Royale. Last couple standing gets the master. |

I would say the person who did the legwork and booked it gets first pick though. |

That being said I can't imagine adults having issues picking rooms. I like the idea of "whoever booked it can pick the nicest room" but after that, whatevs Speaking of which, just have to thank OP for bringing back memories of the place we stayed at in Thailand for a week. 6 people shared this place right by the beach, personal chef, backyard pool, amazing rooms that nobody had to fight for... Wish I could go back right now https://i.imgur.com/lkpDw55.png |
I'm just joking anyways, but I would always rather get 3 hotel rooms in a hotel than AirBnB in most situations these days. Charge me $300 to clean the fucking place then tell me to clean up after myself lol. Staying in a big place is cool if it's with some buddies to get pissed up all night, but if I'm on a couples vacation, I want some privacy when I want it. |

I hate AirBnB's ... they have so much surplus charges/fees on top of the rent - cleaning fee, service fee ... |
I'm imagining it probably has to do with the places we are travelling. West coast US/Canada doesn't have deals on places to stay. I bet I'd feel differently about it where it isn't the shed in the backyard of a 3+ million dollar house. |
I've only stayed in 2 and they were booked by other people but both were weird. With how much they're fucking over local rental markets these days I'd never book one again just because of that anyways. |
We stayed in airbnbs in Japan , Australia and Europe. Japan = quite the experience. You get a whole building to yourself. 6 bedrooms. 3 levels. And you even get parking. Gives you a taste of how a life in Japan would feel like. Pricing wise it was still cheaper than a Hilton / Marriott Australia = about the same as Japan, entire house in Sydney. In an urban setting close to their downtown core and still cheaper than a hotel. Europe = sucks. Pretty much all the places are attached to some guys house or just a bedroom. Ended up cancelling most of those and staying at hotels proper. I think these airbnbs are generally quite fun. You gain a cool experience that you wouldn’t get if you stayed in a hotel |
I went all over Europe in 2017 staying in airbnbs and I really enjoyed interacting with all the hosts... I remember those conversations more than I remember some of the places I went. Sometimes I spent an entire evening just talking about their life and how they came to live in X country. I stayed at a guy's house in Geneva who worked at the UN... and when he came to Canada with his father last year (5 years later!) he came to my office and they had lunch with me, his dad was so excited about the idea that we had met from such a service and how small the world had become and turned out he lived in a town in Belgium one of my family member died in during WW2... and 2 weeks later his dad passed away and I was like the 2nd person he messaged about it. I was in Zurich and stayed with a gay couple and they took me all around Zurich and we had dinner together at a restaurant and went to a nightclub hahaha it was great. It wasn't trouble-free of course, some places are better than others and recently Airbnb fucked me over really bad in Austin, Texas but those times were a lot of fun. |

Can't really generalize that all AirBnBs in Europe are shit. I find that great value lies in staying in the outskirts. Was able to rent full farm houses in the South of France for like $150/night. Big cities yeah you'll get a shared room in a flat above a busy street. Same with NZ just this past spring, got entire houses for the price of a hotel room. But these were in places that didn't really have many hotels to begin with. In North America though, holy shit, seems like hosts are really milking it with exorbitant prices and extra fees. Value is just not there. |
What do you think has caused the decline of Revscene? Would love to see stats on traffic from the 2000's to today 1. Facebook killing forums 2. Gen Z do not care about cars or modifying cars. 3. People getting older and don't have time for cars anymore I joined revscene in the mid 2000's when riced civics with neon underglows + fast and the furious and the car culture seemed so much more lively back then. |
I recently went to Victoria for a short trip -- ya, I know it ain't anything fancy or exciting -- and was looking at AirBnB. Holy shxt they were expensive! Easily 25 - 30% more expensive than your typical 3-star hotel (Best Western / la Quinta / Super 8 that sort of thing) after all the extra fees were factored in. And they were no closer to the DT core than the 3-star hotels that were still available. In the end, I went with a run-of-the-mill 3-star hotel. Not really sure how or why someone would find the AirBnB attractive at the prices they were asking for... |
^ sometimes AirBnB are comparable to 3.5-4 stars !!! only advantage, I suppose, is that AirBnB has kitchen whereas hotels suites might have a small kitchenette at best (if you plan to do your own cooking). |

4. All of the above. Also, cars are way more expensive to get/run/keep and modify these days, and only the true enthusiasts are still doing that. |
Cars are pretty damned good from the factory these days. And anyone who actually wants the performance, will just buy the higher performance model. |
From my own observation, I've actually come across a lot of people who have been a (car) enthusiast at some level, but have since moved on to one thing or another for whatever reason. Using myself as an example, in my younger days when responsibilities were few and time aplenty, I was obviously doing a lot more fun stuff that I am doing now. Different sports, motorsports, socializing, chasing chicks, eating out, gaming, etc. But as responsibilities pile on, the fun stuff inevitably have to be cut back. Nowadays, I'd say I've pretty much pared everything down to just doing the occasional motorsport thing, and even then, I am only doing it 1/3 to 1/4 as often as I would like. And then when it comes to gaming, I find that not only have my tastes changed, I am also a lot less willing to try new things, potentially because time has become more of a luxury now, and I don't want to invest time (& money) into a game that I am not sure whether I'd enjoy. |
My old man moment every week is listening to new music released every Friday... I make a concerted effort to go through it... and almost every week I leave myself devastated at how shit everything is and even IF it does have a good sound (which isn't that often) the lyrics are so WTF that I can't listen to it even for the sound. When I do find something good though it's like the clouds parted and angels singing moment. |
