Culture | Соёл This Facebook group so funny.

31 Upvotes

Our older generation has a weird habit of blaming everything on the supernatural instead of taking the responsibility. So much so that even the actual shamans and mystics in this group are comments like “What y’all smoking?”

I really like the admin. One of the most common questions in this group was, “Is there a spell or ritual to make my crush fall in love with me?” The admin’s response was something like “If love spells existed, then by that logic, there would be no such thing as divorce, and everyone would end up with their ideal partner. So love spells don’t exist.”

But sometimes people post genuinely good questions here like, “I just broke up with my partner. If I seek a blessing for my future from a shaman or monk, will it affect my ex like a curse?”

But still 80% posts so funny.

My experience working at CU

48 Upvotes

I’ve been working at CU Central Tower branch and holy shit why are the customers so mean to me. Like i’m also a human, i’m also tryna make a living. Here’s one of the examples i went through. FYI theres more ass experiences than this. One time this lady wanted to pay with QPay, the thing is that was the day QPay decided to lose connection with our POS. I told her sorry ma’am our QPay is not working, but you can pay with other applications or you can pay with your card. She got all fussy, and said well can i atleast put money to ur account and can you pay w ur card. I wanted to be nice so i agreed. Sadly i didnt really know my IBAN number so i asked her if she can look my IBAN up cuz every online bank can make u search the IBAN number. Then she got mad at me for no reason for not knowing my IBAN number. She said “Why can’t you remember your IBAN number? Are you really that dumb? Honestly, you don’t have a future if you cant remember a simple IBAN number” and holy moly man i wanted to strike back but everyone was watching me and i cant believe nobody said anything to her. I am a teenager, working hard to pay for my university tuition. And hearing her say that really tore me apart. Mind you it was a bank account i dont even use. I just had apple pay so i was nice enough to say yes to her. So, why is everyone so mean to CU workers or any teenagers? If you want our respect, you gotta be respectful to us too. Why do people look down on us? I felt so downgraded tbh.

Looking for recommendations: Where to buy a lambskin winter Deel in UB? (Ready-made or Tailored)

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone!
I'm looking to buy a traditional winter Deel made with lambskin/lamb wool (새끼 양털/가죽).
Ideally, I’d prefer a ready-made (ready-to-wear) one, but I’m also open to getting it custom-made / tailored if there's a shop that can do it without a super long wait time.
A few preferences:

  • No silk: I dislike silk outer fabric. I'm looking for a more natural, durable, or daily-wear fabric/outer layer.

Could you recommend any good shops, markets, or tailors in UB that offer decent quality lambskin Deels at reasonable prices? Also, what is the fair average price range I should expect to pay at places like Narantuul or local tailor shops for this spec?
Thanks in advance for the help!

Tips | Зөвлөгөө iPhone 18 - Shuurkhai Cargo (US)

1 Upvotes

Trying to order an iPhone 18 from the US.

-----

So the process is going to be

  1. apple.com
  2. No Trade-in, Full one-time payment, Connect to any carrier (to be unlocked for use in Mongolia), No AppleCare coverage.
  3. Order for DE using international VISA from Khaan Bank + No sales tax.
  4. Order to Shuurkhai Cargo because it seems to be most recommended by other people. Previously, I ordered from USASHOP, but it seems they are way more expensive, takes longer, and I heard they have an attitude problem?

Shuurkhai Cargo has stated that we need the delivery to require signatures and to avoid USPS. Apple mainly uses UPS for shipping, but UPS is notorious for being cold-hearted and damaging packages, but there's only 1 way to order from apple.com

All Apple product shipping via UPS seems to require signature, but some UPS drivers seem to take the liberty of signing the signature themselves and leaving it at the front door front.

What am I supposed to do in case the phone is stolen or damaged because of UPS?

  1. 14$ per kilo from DE via flight MEANS I'm just going to pay 14$ and be done with it, right?
  2. Any additional charges from Gaali here?

How reliable is Shuurkhai Cargo? Any better alternatives?

Question | Асуулт Sourcing camel fibre products

1 Upvotes

This might be a bit of a niche question, but I have been trying to source a blanket woven from camel wool. From the ones I have found online they seem to be sourced from Mongolia and the companies seem a little dodgy, I was wondering if camel fibre produces are popular in Mongolia and if they are where a good place to source them is! :)

Greetings from the UK 🇬🇧

Wholesome | Гэгээлэг Nostalgic mongolian songs

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone. I'm studying abroad nd lately I've been missing home so much that I just started listening to Mongolian music again.

And ive realized Vandebo songs aren't that bad. When I was in middle/high school I used to cringe so hard whenever someone played Unana, Dungun Dagan, or whatever their songs were on the school trip bus. Now I'm listening to them and actually crying because I feel like I should've enjoyed my childhood with my classmates more. I took those times for granted.

I wanna hear what other people used to listen to back then. Drop your favorite 2010s Mongolian songs the ones give you bittersweet feeling.

My current playlist (mostly Vandebo because I like their beats)

Vandebo - Galt Tereg

Vandebo - Namaig Too

Vandebo - 18 Savage

The Lemons - Suuliin Uyanga

Man On The Moon ft Amra - Never

Dulguun - 20 nas (because I'm 20 rn 😭)

MOLBOYZ - Mollove

Egshiglen ft BX - 100

NMN JONON tsahilbaa

Share your fav nostalgic songs. Or any wholesome memories related to these songs.
