Neighbours recently had their home remodelled, which involved them putting new glazing in their bathroom. The glass is not frosted enough and there’s a lot to see.

They are large windows too, starting at knee hight. How do I bring this up?

Bonus points if someone can tell me why this community keeps showing my subscription as pending.

    I love this haha, I live in NZ and people here are very indirect and non confrontational.

    I’m Dutch so quite the opposite.

      I was working with a Dutch guy, he’d just flown back to Netherlands and I sent him an email that went something like:

      Hi Jan,

      Hope you made it back ok,

      <work question>

      Cheers,
      Dandan

      He replied inline to my email and under “Hope you made it back ok” he wrote " >I do not understand why this is relevant"

      Here in Latin America things vary quite a bit, specially in areas with heavier impact of immigration. So I guess that the folks here learn how to “gauge” how indirect you need to be, as being too overly indirect is also bound to piss some people off.
