LAY’s “Bob” Nickname:
Yixing used to feel a little shy whenever Beikers called him “宝宝/Bao Bao/Baby” in public. Then he noticed that 海绵宝宝 (Hai Mian Bao Bao) translates to SpongeBob in English 😆.
He once said, “If you really want to call me baobao/Baby, please don’t shout baby, just call me Bob okay? Zhang Bob, okay? Lay Bob, okay? Please don’t call me baobao anymore, I’m 33 years old”
fan: “Suho should be more transparent.”
Suho: *BE transparent*
fan: *can’t handle the truth* “he should just stay quiet”
if i were Suho, i’d be losing my mind dealing with this likeee wym 😭

Q: Why do you call Sehun hyung even though he’s younger than you?
🍒: Recently, we changed our dynamic a bit. There were some things about the roles between us that I wasn’t fully comfortable with, and I didn’t even know how to bring them up. So I honestly asked him, “Do you think your position is lower than mine just because I’m older?”
Sehun didn’t answer at that moment, but his eyes kind of did.
Since then, I thought that if I let go of just this one thing, everything else would run more smoothly and we’d get even closer. So I dropped the word hyung and started calling him Sehun hyung instead.
DJ: Didn’t you feel bad at all after giving up your “hyung position”?
🍒: Not at all. I wasn’t even a little upset or uncomfortable. I think we’re actually more comfortable with each other now.
DJ: Sehun-ssi, what about you? Doesn’t it bother you that your real hyung calls you hyung?
🐥: No, honestly, it wasn’t as uncomfortable as I thought it would be.
🍒: It feels nice to have a younger brother like me, right?
🐥: A lot.
DJ: So you really see Chanyeol as your younger brother?
🐥: Not exactly. It’s more like… I see him as a friend and a brother who feels like he’s the same age as me. 🤍🥹
*Chanyeol gets excited*

[ENG] MINHO on how his SHINee members know when he is hungry 🥲
👠 since you use up a lot of your energy, have you never had to fight with your members once about food stuff?
🐿️ well i’m rather the type of person who eats everything tho~ the kind who’s like “just get whatever you want to eat”
👠 oh~ without overeating?
🐿️ without overeating… just give it me when im hungry
👠 what if you’re hungry but you’re in a situation where you cannot eat?
🐿️ that’s the reason why i was so sensitive in the past
🐿️ when i’m being on the edge, (shinee members) know it all — “this guy’s hungry, eh”
🐿️ it was that simple. when that happens, as soon as i get to eat— “aaaah~ 🌸”
👠 ah~ that’s too easy!
🐿️ i’m a very easy guy! i even really think to myself that i am too easy! i’m too easy
🐿️ the moment i feel this hunger, everything in me is heightened, i just… “what do i do about this what—“
👠 but as soon as you go, “minho-ya! minho-ya! here here 🍟”
🐿️ when that happens, this place would suddenly have flowers everywhere, from nothing but thorns to flowers spread out like this

Elon Musk: “Anyone who wants to make more than they take has my respect”
Elon is asked for his advice for entrepreneurs, to which he responds:
“I’m a big fan of anyone who wants to build. Anyone who wants to make more than they take has my respect. That’s the main thing you should aim for: to make more than you take and be a net contributor to society.”
He compares it to the pursuit of happiness:
“If you want to create something valuable financially, you don’t pursue that. It’s best to pursue providing useful products and services. If you do that, money will come as a natural consequence of that rather than pursuing money directly. You can’t pursue happiness directly. You pursue things that lead to happiness — fulfilling work, study, friends, loved ones.”
Elon continues:
“It sounds very obvious, but generally if somebody is trying to make a company work, they should expect to grind super hard and accept that there’s a meaningful chance of failure. Then just focus on having the output be worth more than the input. Are you a value creator? That’s what really matters: making more than you take.”
