Once my papa (great grandpa), went on a trip to whales, And on that trip he went into a local store to get some grocery’s. As he was finishing up his shopping he got into the checkout line, and then the man in front of him stepped forward to pay. the cashier said hello in Welsh and the man continued the conversation in the same language. Soon after the man in front left and my papa stepped in front to pay for his shopping. As he was about to say hello in Welsh, the cashier started speaking to him in English. His shopping was scanned and he walked towards the shop exit. Right before he left though he asked the cashier "why did you speak to me in English and not in Welsh like the man in front of me. How did you know I was English." And the cashier replied with, "You’re too tall to be Welsh"

2024.05.14 23:14 Illustrious-Flow9397 Both sides of GDKP
Notice: Throwaway account
Message for GDKP simps: Since GDKP is the best system for keeping geared players in raids, for making players stick to the end, and for ensuring players watch mechanics since they can have their cut taken from them, most people would gravitate towards it. Now, I don't have numbers, but let's say half of the players spend 8 hours farming a day, or sit at the AH and just earn gold. It is perfectly reasonable for those players who don't enjoy raiding to still have the best gear in the game, and therefore go and buy it. The problem arises when players who play few hours and are not good at raiding want to join raids. Most people gravitate towards GDKP, and they feel they don't have the skill and gear to join, and they don't have legitimate gold to buy it. Then the most logical solution for them is to buy gold with real money. So the pressure is there, and GDKPs do put pressure on those kinds of players, driving them to engage in RMT, and I totally understand the Blizzard line of thinking (even though I think they just don't address the problem from the root cause but just give a pill to fix short-term solutions). But unless Blizzard can fix it (and I will explain later how they can), for now banning GDKPs is the best solution possible. The same goes for leveling; giving people dungeon spams and incursions forces everyone to level most efficiently, so if they just removed EXP, the world would feel more alive. And you can say you can still quest, but it is different when everyone on the server is on quests or you are alone in the big world and everyone is in X part of the world doing the same thing, while you try to kill an Elite for a quest just by yourself. People from OG Classic will remember how easy it was to come to the Elite and find 2-3 people already waiting there for more randoms to come and join to kill the Elite to finish a quest. So letting GDKP go through is killing normal guilds, and you can not deny that.
Message for GDKP haters: Reddit is full of players obsessed with their egos, and I reached out anonymously (same as with this account) and started asking them why they hate GDKP. When you start putting "if"s, you come to the conclusion that it is just an ego issue and it has nothing to do with prices in the game or with RMT. Eight out of ten conversations came to this conclusion, and paraphrasing here: "If Blizzard had the option to stop RMT, they would still be against it since noobs should not be allowed to get the best gear in the game." And "It would be fine to have GDKPs, but back in the game where the best loot would be for the guild and sell trash from the raid to noobs who want to pay gold." Again, I reached out to ten people who were against GDKPs, and only one of them didn't mention this reason. Only one mentioned inflation because of GDKP, and when you just showcase that gold is already in the game, so no RMT, there is no new gold generated by GDKPs; they just hit you with: "You don't understand." In reality, inflation is happening because of botting, and that botting generates new gold that is sold to people willing to buy. So if RMT is stopped, GDKP cannot possibly cause inflation; therefore, botting is the only problem for inflation. Without inflation, there is only supply and demand as any economy would function. The more an item is needed, the more it will cost, the more people farm it will start to cost less, and if someone has a monopoly, it would skyrocket. Economy 101.
Fix of the issue: Blizzard should implement an in-game option for loot GDKP, the same as Master loot. When that option is selected, create a UI for GDKP functionalities, bidding, splitting, etc. But in that functionality, Blizzard should conduct a full-on scan of that account and any gold incoming through the account that doesn't make sense. For example, just gained X gold from someone who never communicated with that person, sold Y item that is usually 2s for huge amounts of gold, and so on. Instantly flag that account for a person to go in and check it manually for less room for error, and if even suspicion by a real person, ban them for 7 days and put them into "semi-blacklist" accounts that are monitored as "possible RMT". If the offense is repeated and there is proof that they bought gold, permanent ban them. That way, everyone participating in those kinds of GDKPs would know their account will be checked, and you will make WoW less of an RMT/pay-to-win game that GDKP haters say it is.
Note for those people saying there will be loopholes, so review should be account-wide on all of your subscriptions so there is no room for "I will have a subscription to buy gold and pay for items on X sub, and play on Y sub". And again, I know there might be a workaround, but this will cut the RMT for GDKPs enormously. And again, the same for crime; you can never achieve 0% crime, but every decision should aim to enforce less crime in the real world. And from my view, botting is still happening, RMT is still happening, and GDKPs are happening. Just because some aren't aware of it, doesn't mean if they banned it no one is doing it; it's just less in the open. And punishing the population that likes GDKP since that can create an incentive to have alts, especially in SOD where you should try every class to see all runes and all possibilities, is killing the alt population.
Again, without Blizzard implementing something like this, I am still pro-"GDKP ban," but I think it is the wrong solution if they just ban it and leave it like that. They should have banned it and worked on something. This is just my idea; I believe people can come up with even better ideas. I'm just showing that this Reddit community is attacking each other without realizing both sides are partially right.
GDKP simps: "This is the best loot system, and I don't need to build my schedule around a guild and X other people. I can just log in and join GDKP and know everyone will perform since they will be punished if not performing."
GDKP haters: "It drives more RMT, it kills the guilds."
Both are correct, so we should try to fix the RMT issue and let people play how they wish to play their game.
Feel free to agree and disagree and write your own views. This is more for people to sit down and think about how the "other side" feels and thinks. And if by any chance, a Blizzard employee is reading this, a message to Blizzard:
"Hi there, Reddit should be just for you to bounce off ideas, not to listen to us. Someone will always complain. Create a vision for SOD and stick to it. Say, 'This is how we planned it. If you don't like it, you have Hardcore, Era, Cata, Retail.' We are building this as X vision and stick to your ideals. When you are game-oriented and not just focused on money to please customers and get more revenue, you understand that not everyone will love the game, but it's better to have 50% of the player base enjoying it and being subbed for 2 years because of SOD, than to change something for people who complained and will unsub after 2 months and never come back. And if you want to know if the community likes or hates something, for the love of God, don't ask on Twitter or Reddit. Put it in the game as a notice that is clickable so people who actually play the game can vote on it. Not what group has the most ragers on Reddit and Twitter. Have a poll in-game for people who are playing the game and never go on Twitter or Reddit."

Considering the fact that you found my contact information online, it’s understandable to be skeptical regarding the legitimacy of my services. Therefore, I’m willing to do all of the following to help you feel more secure in trusting me with your academic needs:
- 1) Speak with you on the phone and answer any questions you may have so that you have the opportunity to assess and analyze my tone, articulation, accent, diction, dialect, regionalisms, pitch, vocabulary, word choice, intonations, and inflections.
- NOTE: I’m a New Jersey-born Irish/Italian-American, but I have been told that I speak in an erudite & articulate suburban American accent with a “professor style” voice somewhat resembling the voice of actor: Ben Stein.
- 2) Agree to do some homework questions of yours upfront with the work fully shown in real-time to prove my mastery of the course content.
- 3) Send you screenshots of at least five past scores I attained from completing exams & homework assignments for other students in the same type of class you need help with.
- 4) Send you full screenshots of written exam solutions I wrote up by hand for students in the past in the same course that you need help with so that you can see my neat handwriting.
- 5) Provide you with the contact information of students who have utilized my services in the past who would be more than willing to vouch for my skills.
At the risk of sounding arrogant, I consider myself to be at least marginally more intelligent (both academically & socially) than the average person. Therefore, if I ever decided to suddenly risk prison time, risk my reputation, and risk enduring the wrath of modern-day “cancel culture” by scamming people out of their money:
- I certainly wouldn’t do it for such paltry amounts of money. (i.e., anything less than $1,000 per victim.)
- I certainly wouldn’t choose high school & college students as my “target audience” to scam, considering that most people without college degrees have abysmally low annual incomes. Why choose low-income victims when it would be much more profitable to target high-income, high-net-worth individuals earning at least six figures a year? I have knowledge in business consulting, and I promise you that a business owner would be a MUCH more lucrative mark than a low-income college student.
- I wouldn’t choose such a time & energy-draining method of scamming people. Also, communicating back and forth with potential clients is an absurdly long time sink since only less than 10% of all potential clients who reach out to me actually become paying clients of mine. This means that 90% of my time communicating with potential clients ultimately proves to be a colossal waste of my irretrievable time & energy.
- If you pay me to provide academic services and I don’t deliver, you can always dispute the payment with the payment app and easily get your money refunded. If I were in the habit of swindling money from people, then all of my payment accounts would have been investigated and be completely shut down by now. And I would have been permanently banned from opening new accounts. Therefore, the fact that all my payment apps have been fully active for years should be sufficient proof that I haven’t had people consistently disputing payments sent to me.

2024.05.14 22:58 Carrots-1975 Why don’t they pay attention to their surroundings?
Went to the gym this afternoon and started feeling really weak and shaky right as I was about to start my last set of exercises. I have issues with hypoglycemia sometimes so I decided to ditch the workout and stop for a sugary drink to try and get my blood sugar up.
Walk to the back of a gas station to grab my can of soda then head to the two registers up front- one is a regular register and the other is self checkout. There’s a boomer lady at the self checkout but she can’t figure out how to use it. There are 2 employees chit chatting just standing behind the regular register, not making any move to acknowledge me or check me out so I have to wait for the boomer lady to figure out the self checkout. A third employee comes to help walk her through it and she goes to pay… with cash. She then proceeds to slowly bend over to get her change, then fumble opening her change purse to put away the coins, then fumble to find the right compartment for the bills. (She was moving in the most languid, sloth-like fashion. I have never seen another human move so slowly).
Up to this point, no big deal. I’m more irritated at the employees not doing their jobs than her. But my blood sugar is dropping so I’m in a bit of a hurry. Then, she proceeds to start asking about the self checkout. How does it work- do you have to scan everything or do you just place it on the pad, etc. Then starts complaining about technology and that “I prefer human interactions”. All the while a line is forming behind me and this woman, doing her best impersonation of a sloth, just continues to stand in front of the only checkout and make an issue about how she doesn’t trust these machines, etc. she finally starts to leave and I share a commiserating glance with the employee she had been talking at.
It sounds mean with me commenting on how slow she was moving, I mean I know she was old and while she looked healthy who knows what health issues she was dealing with. Just be self aware- surely she’s noticed how slowly she moves (especially if it’s from a health issue) so why wouldn’t you just move out of line so the next person could go while you gather your stuff. I paid for my drink, got in my car, and pulled into traffic before she had even fully made it to her car. That’s how slowly she was moving LOL

2024.05.14 22:58 SeparateHope1152 Need Card Suggestion for Max Points
Hi all,
I am looking at getting more into credit cards to build up points to pay for travel. I have a good amount of my regular spend categories covered with 2-3x points but always think I could do more. Also wanting to get some cards with bigger sign on bonus to really start racking up points.
I fly 3-4 times a year, on delta mostly. But I am moving and the closest airport will no longer be a delta hub. When I do travel I mostly stay at Airbnb’s and get rental cars or Turos, would like to build up points to stay at hotels from time to time.
Let me know your suggestions!
Current credit cards you are the primary account holder of: - Wells Fargo Autograph, $5.3k limit, June 2015 - Amex Delta platinum, $28k limit, June 2021 - Bilt Mastercard, $6.5k limit, Feb. 2024 - Amex Blue Business plus, $14k limit, April 2024 - Also a BCU Cash Rewards card that is not used anymore $9k limit, June 2020 * * FICO Scores with source: - Fico score 780 * * Oldest credit card account age with you as primary name on the account: - Wells Fargo autograph from 2015

- * Gas $: $80, Work mostly from home so barely need to fill up.
- * Travel $: Will spend about $3k a year on travel, mainly to beaches or on ski trips in the winter as well as flights back home for holidays.
- * Any other categories (examples: phone/internet, insurance) or stores (example: Amazon) with significant, regular credit card spend (the more you specify, the better): $30 for gym, I make the large insurance payments with my BBP, phone and internet is paid with my WF autograph that gets 3x.
- * Any other significant, regular credit card spend you didn't include above?: $1,500 for things like golf/skiing/other recreational activities
- * Can you pay rent by credit card? - I pay about $2,200 for rent that I pay with my Bilt card which gives me no fees. The fee for using a normal credit card is only 1.95%, so I have thought about using my BBP instead to get more points at basically no cost. MEMBERSHIPS & SUBSCRIPTIONS (delete lines that don't apply)
- Currently a member of Costco and Sam's Club
- For subscriptions I am only paying $12/month for Apple Music
- I Currently bank with Sofi but used to bank with WF
- Not in the military
- I would prefer personal cards but I already have a business card and wouldn’t completely shut down the idea.
- I’ve been looking at the chase sapphire for the 85k in branch sign on bonus. Also the citi custom cash for the 5x back on one category that would probably be for groceries.
- I don’t think I NEED a new high end travel card as I already pay $350 for my delta platinum that gives me TSA precheck and other perks, but if one could get positive value I would consider.
2024.05.14 22:54 nehadixit7 Deteriorated Relationship Between Half Siblings
This is me venting but am also curious to know what everyone's relationship is like with half-siblings. Here's my story. I'm sorry in advance for how long this is, along with the grammarun-ons. I'm trying to give the Reddit community as much context as I can dating as far back as my memory takes me.
I (F 28) have two younger biological sisters (identical twins, F 25). The three of us were born after my dad married my mom (arranged marriage) after he and his first wife got divorced.
I believe my dad's first marriage lasted about 10 years. They had two kids together (my half-siblings). My older brother and I have an 8-year age difference, and my older sister and I have a 10-year age difference. Growing up, they used to visit us a few times a year including summer break or alternating holidays. Sometimes they would visit during Thanksgiving, other times during Christmas.
We used to be pretty close (at least I thought), but the relationship has become increasingly strained through the years. I understand the fact that there are ALWAYS two sides to every story, but I believe that my dad was on the right side of things and the marriage ended because two people weren't compatible and got married too young. It's always unfortunate when there are kids involved, and I'm sure it was tough with my older siblings being impacted at a young age.
It started when our grandpa (my dad's dad) passed away in November 2015. My brother suddenly stopped talking to my dad/our family immediately for whatever reason. He was the only person that didn't come to my grandpa's funeral. I honestly think he was holding a grudge that he didn't find out immediately when my grandpa passed, but I can't be too sure. We've never addressed that directly.
Fast forward 8 months to July 2016, when my dad's side of the family had a reunion at a first cousin's wedding. The vibes from my brother were like nothing had happened, and then after the wedding weekend, he was back to being silent. When my grandma (dad's mom) passed away in June 2019 he didn't show up to the funeral then either. Granted I didn't, but not because I didn't want to. I was a poor grad student and couldn't afford an $800 ticket on short notice and didn't want to burden my parents to pay for me to fly back for a couple of days either on top of how busy they were with funeral arrangements.
My brother went about 5 years to not talk to my dad or any of us. Then, out of nowhere, he calls one day to announce that he's getting married. The wedding is set for October 2022. I think he was buttering up my dad and our family to come to the wedding, because he knew it would look bad if everyone asked where his dad was for his wedding, and it would reflect poorly on him. The communication in 2022 was pretty consistent leading up to the wedding, and my older siblings would call my dad almost every weekend knowing that they needed us to show up to the wedding.
My older sister (F 38) had a baby girl in July 2018. Our dad was thrilled, his oldest daughter made him a grandpa. But there is clear separation and favoritism there, as my niece only sees her mom's side of the family being in the same area in the DMV. For those who aren't familiar with DC/MD/VA, my older sister lives in Virginia, in Arlington, and her mom lives in Herndon. About a 30-minute drive from each other. My parents live across the country in Orange County, so visits are far and few in between for my dad and his grandchild. I live on the Maryland side, and the state line between Maryland and Virginia is roughly 30 min, depending on where you go and the time of day. Anyway, I don't even know if my niece knows that she has another grandpa, outside of what she knows about my sister's mom and stepdad, and my brother-in-law's parents, who split time between the US and Nepal. I feel so bad for my dad because that's his grandkid too and everyone deserves the joy of being involved in their grandkids lives. My dad has seen my niece several times but the relationship is pretty surface level. It's not her fault, she doesn't know him like she does my sister's mom and stepdad, plus it's a proximity thing living on opposite sides of the country. We have FaceTime for these reasons though.
My husband and I aren't ready to have kids yet, and we want them. We've only been married for almost 7 months so we're still trying to live life before we settle down. I hope nothing more than to be able to give my parents a grandkid one day because I want my dad and mom to experience what they missed from my older half-siblings isolating them from their kids. That is if I'm able to have kids, I know we can't control these things.
This brings me to my next point (if you're still reading this, I appreciate you). My husband and I got married in October 2023. Our parents on both sides did everything they could to give us the wedding of our dreams, and it was everything we imagined and hoped for, and I'm forever grateful for that. I know that my wedding hit my dad harder emotionally than the first two with my older siblings because he was not at all involved during theirs. That wasn't by choice, my older siblings' mom probably didn't want him to be involved. Divorced dynamics are so confusing. You're telling me you can't come together and be civilized for a day/weekend? After my wedding, a few months later, sometime in January or February 2024, my dad called me to talk about how my sister was upset after our wedding and she vented about a few things with him on the phone. He was relaying the message over.
For context, I uploaded our wedding pictures on Facebook, because I have so many family members overseas in Nepal who weren't able to attend the wedding, and it was honestly the most convenient way to showcase our pictures since people in Nepal are ridiculously active on Facebook. My sister has social media, my brother got rid of his TwitteFacebook/Instagram/everything many years ago. Our photographer took several thousand pictures throughout the wedding weekend events, and of course, there were moments captured of my older sister and her family, including my brother-in-law, and niece. I will admit out of spite since my sister never posts anything about me and my dad/family, I tagged but then later on deleted those pictures she was in. Why would I have pictures of her on my social media when she's never posted anything of us? She doesn't even like or comment on anything on my social media, and when you have siblings, this is not something you discuss, you just do it. Duh. Over the last few days, I unfollowed her and unfriended her on Facebook and Instagram. For me, it makes no sense to keep people on my newsfeed if I don't interact with them, and I have plenty of family members and friends that I already have a strongemore communicative relationship with.
If my sister was upset about this, why did she call my dad to vent about this months later instead of coming to me? My dad told me she complained that he didn't mention her or my older brother during his speech at our wedding. But am I wrong for thinking, why would he? It's a celebration for me and my husband. I thought that was very conceited and selfish. The day wasn't about her, and my dad's speech was so heartfelt that I cried. I believe she was offended she didn't get the same during hers. However, my sister and brother never asked our dad to give a toast at their weddings. Only their mom did, which is messed up in my opinion.
I understand divorce is messy and complicated, and people go through years of therapy to fix, or maybe even never fix issues completely. It's hard, and I'm just a product of his second marriage. But I've never understood the jealousy that seems to exist, specifically between my older sister and me.
I tried reaching out to both of them in a group iMessage, talking about how I am not happy with the way they're treating our dad. My brother has stopped calling my dad completely over the last few months since his son (my dad's second grandkid) was born a few months ago in February. My sister calls maybe once a month. I wanted to confront them about this ongoing behavior and ill will toward our family. They didn't even have the guts to respond to me, I suggested if they have time to FaceTime so we can have a real adult conversation about what is their issue. My parents are flying to DC this weekend and the original plan was to drive a few hours north so they could see my brother's baby. No communication with my brother whatsoever to coordinate. I feel devastatingly sad for my dad.
I'm not even going to get into their treatment of my mom. That's another long story, but basically, it's them not giving a hoot about her, even though she's the one who took care of them and stepped up when they visited growing up. As a stepmom, it's hard to deal with kids from a previous marriage. But she did it and she loves them, and they're nothing but passive-aggressive and mean to her. They never wish her happy birthday, happy Mother's Day, or my parents happy anniversary. It takes two seconds. For me, if you disrespect my parents, you're disrespecting me.
Since then, my sister has unfollowed and unfriended everyone on social media, including my dad, my younger sisters, and my husband. All because she couldn't handle that I did that to her. I'm just not for this nasty behavior, and I know we all need to unpack a lot in therapy (me and my older siblings specifically). Their behavior is cowardly, and I can't be the only one that thinks this, right? I don't know. It didn't have to be like this. I'm sure their mom has been telling them bad things about the marriage and my dad for years. I'm not saying he probably didn't make mistakes, but there are, once again, two sides to everyone's story. None of us kids have heard both sides directly from the source, and probably never will. It makes me sad, especially for my dad. I know life will go on. I tried to reach out, and if they don't want to talk about these issues like adults, then I have nothing else to say.

2024.05.14 22:53 uninvitedthirteenth Travel Diary: Amsterdam, May 2-May 8
Travel Diary: I make $195,000 and spent $2149.75 (+49k points) while on a trip to Amsterdam
Section One: Bio

Main Job Monthly Take Home: After all deductions and contributions to savings, my monthly take home is ~$6200
Section Four: Travel Expenses/Diary
Trip planning - My (40F) best friend from college (39F) and I decide to go to Amsterdam on a birthday trip. We both turn 40 in 2024, and we decide to go in May because it's in between our birthdays and because it'll be tulip season in Amsterdam! Neither of us have been. We also haven't travelled together before, despite being friends for 20(!) years, so we are a little apprehensive, although we have spent a lot of time together over the past few years. We decide on a 6 day trip. For purposes of this diary I'm going to list my half of the expenses for things we split. Costs are in US dollars, despite paying using Euros. As a side note, I also am a little over one year post-Gastric Bypass, which has a limited effect on my diet (I try to eat low carb, but you'll see that I mostly fail at this on this trip!).
Pre-trip expenses: $1193.15 total
Flight: $255 + 49k points (from Capital One)
Lodging: $1425.91 (split) - $713

Red Light District Tour: $50.52
Day trip to windmills tour: $43.20

Day 1 (Total $21.17)
Our flight is at 5:30pm, so we planned to be at the airport by 3:30pm, which actually turned out to be 4pm. Uber ($21.17). After checking bags (included in flight price) and getting through security we made it to our gate right as boarding was about to start. No time for food or drinks.
On the plane I eat a snack of roasted chickpeas before dinner, which was chicken cacciatore with mashed potatoes, bread, cheesecake, cheese, and a salad. And two glasses of wine. I save the cheesecake and cheese for later.
My friend and I watch a movie (Poor Things) and then try to sleep. I am reading A Fault In Our Stars, because Amsterdam. I try unsuccessfully to sleep for awhile and then go back to reading. At some point i eat the cheese and cheesecake. Breakfast is a cheese roll, which i eat a couple bites of (OMG does all of Amsterdam have this much cheese?? - spoiler alert… yes it does!). I wish I had slept more.
Day 2 - Even though it feels like a continuation of day one. (Total $207.02)
7am - We land at 7 and then grab the bags and go through customs. Easy peasy. We are exhausted so we grab coffee at the airport before figuring out public transit ($5.10). I take out 60 euro for cash in case we need it ($65). We buy a train ticket to the central station ($6.33) and when we get there we buy a four day unlimited public transit pass ($28.44) so that we don’t have to worry about it later.
We get to the hotel at around 9am. They tell us it will cost $50 to check in early, which we opt not to do. Instead we go get breakfast and coffee at a cafe nearby ($21.20). The hotel tells us that our prepaid amount did not include city taxes, which is another $183 (my half $91.88).
11:30am - Back at the room we decide to rest for 90 minutes. Enough to catch up on sleep but not to waste the day and get more jet-lagged. After a rest we decide to walk around and get a feel for the neighborhood and do some shopping. We find a bookstore, and I buy a copy of my favorite book from high school, Tess of the D’Ubervilles with a beautiful cover and gold edges ($21.46). We also buy fries with truffle, mayo, and Parmesan at a fry shop ($3.32) (that’s all they have and they are delicious!). We also stop a grocery store and pick up a few things including yogurt, cheese, salami, apples, and an energy drink ($13.19). We have some early days planned and nothing seems to open early. It’s very cold and rainy and semi unpleasant.
6pm - We drop stuff off, bundle up, and head off to dinner and a tour of the red light district. We try to find a place that serves Snert, a Dutch pea soup, but strike out. We end up at an Asian place instead. I get chicken satay and a beer and my friend gets Indonesian soup and wine ($16.10). Our red light tour is great, but we are exhausted after and head straight home to bed. 22k steps total
Day 3 (Total $87.24)
7:30am - We have an early day planned, and have to be on a bus near the central station by 8am. I eat a yogurt and energy drink (from grocery store) for breakfast and we take public transit (covered on unlimited card) to the station. We find the right bus and head off!
First stop is the windmills, which are beautiful! I am happy we get there early because we basically have the place to ourselves. My friend gets a coffee and we both use the restroom ($1.08!). Then we head to Edam and do a walking tour there. Next stop is a clog/cheese place, which feels very touristy but they do feed us lots of cheese. I buy a cheese slicer as a souvenir ($10.81). Next stop is another small town where we have lunch at a cafe. We basically pick one at random. My friend gets fried fish and I get a ham and cheese panini and a beer ($17.30). Final stop is an artificial island town called Maarken. We do another walking tour.
2:30pm - we arrive back in Amsterdam and get let off north of the water. I grab a coffee ($3.76). We go up to the Adam lookout and take a ride on the swing off the side of the building ($25.95 for swing plus ticket to lookout). We also grab a drink and sit on a pillow watching the city from very high up, which is lovely ($6.63). On the way out I buy a reusable water bottle at the gift shop ($4.87).
After the lookout we take the tram over to a brewery at a windmill that was recommended to us by several people (including here on Reddit!). Cost was covered by the transit pass. We buy bitterballen and a small bottle of Genever (local whiskey) (paid by my friend) and a flight of beer ($16.84). We are a bit tipsy but enjoying the lovely weather.
6:30 - On the way back toward the hotel the weather turns and it starts raining so we dip into a pub for dinner. I have a burger ($16.12). We are there at 8pm, which is momentous because it’s a day of remembrance and the whole bar is silent for two minutes. It was very interesting to be there during this time.
We are exhausted by this point and go home to bed. 19k steps total for the day.
Day 4 (Total $104.33)
7am - Another early day as we have to be on a bus at 7:30 to go to Keukenhof for the tulips! (paid in advance). We wanted to take the first bus out there because we heard the crowds were bad. I eat a yogurt for breakfast and take a 5 hour energy (no cafes open this early!). We try to take public transit to the train station but didn’t realize that the trains do not run that early on a Sunday so we grab an Uber instead ($12.20). We tell the Uber driver we’re trying to catch a bus so he makes sure we find the right place and we pull up just as the bus is loading. Phew!
8:00am - we spend 5 hours in the gardens and take literally hundreds of pictures. We are glad that we get there early as the first few hours are lovely and empty. We get a coffee ($4.60) and lunch later ($25.36). By 1pm it’s getting very crowded so we start heading out. We grab the bus back to the train station.
2:30pm - We decide to go by the Rijksmuseum although not in it because we planning that later. Instead we stop off at the Van Gogh/Rijks gift shop that’s nearby. I get a couple souvenirs, including a foldable bag and a magnet ($20.44). I also get a coffee ($3.64) and my friend gets bubble tea. We sit on the hill on museumplein and people watch. After awhile it starts to get hot (we had dressed for the early morning) so we head back to the hotel to change.
5pm - we decide we are having an evening of drinking. We first grab a drink in the hotel bar because we get free vouchers for each day we choose not to have the room cleaned. Then we have dinner at an udon place, which is delicious. We have tempura, chicken katsu, and dumplings ($15.94). Then because it’s cinco de mayo we decide to have margaritas at the Mexican place near the hotel ($15.15)! Not Dutch but it’s fun. We head down the street to another bar and have a Genever cocktail called an Amsterdam mule ($9.91). I am happy with our choice of hotel because there are so many places in our neighborhood. On the way home we pass a fresh stroopwaffle place and must get in line for one ($5.92).
By then we are exhausted and head to bed. 21k steps total for the day.
Day 5 (Total $80.44)
8am - We have a slightly less early day but have tickets to the Anne Frank house at 9:15. (paid in advance). I eat some yogurt and cheese in the room before we leave. It’s walkable so we decide to head out early and grab coffee on the way. ($3.19). The house is sombering but I’m glad we did it.
11am - After the Anne Frank house we walk to the nearby cheese museum. We sample lots of cheese. I buy one cheese to take home ($15.18). We want to walk to a used bookstore, but decide to have lunch at a cafe on the way. We pick one at random. We split chicken tenders and a goat cheese and apple sandwich and I have a beer. ($15.14). The sandwich is one of the best things we have eaten. We spend about an hour in the bookstore and my friend buys one book.
3pm - We realize we are by the monkey bar (one of the oldest bars in Amsterdam that they told us about on our red light district tour). We stop in for a drink. Ok two drinks. ($12.50). We take the metro back towards the hotel and stop in at a tile store in our neighborhood so I can buy a magnet. I buy magnets from all my trips, but I like non-touristy handmade ones if I can find them, Van Gogh magnet from yesterday aside. I buy one with a windmill on it. ($14). We also stop at the grocery store for more yogurt ($3.05) and for Dutch apple pie at the cafe across the street from the hotel ($4). We get back to the hotel and have another free drink and then rest before dinner.
8pm - We go out to a Dutch restaurant for dinner. I am not super hungry from pie so I just get the snert (pea soup). My friend gets sauerkraut and potatoes. Sorry, but I thought it was pretty bland food in general. ($13.38).
We head home. It’s a lighter day, only 14k steps today.
Day 6 (Total $194.47)
8am - Today is our last full day in Amsterdam. We have planned to spend the day at the Rijksmuseum. We want to get there right when it opens for crowd reasons. We had bought “friend of the museum” passes ahead of time so that we can skip the line. I have a yogurt for breakfast and we walk to a cafe near the museum for coffee and breakfast for my friend ($3.78). The man at the cafe is very nice and we love sitting outside in the sunshine. It’s going to be a warm day!
We spend about 5 hours at the museum. We rush to see the Van goghs and the main gallery where the Rembrandts are, including The Night Watch, which is probably one of the most famous paintings in there. We had downloaded the app so we shared a pair of earbuds and listened to audio notes about many of the works (they have a number you can enter in). We take a break outside for coffee ($7.29 - i pay) and skip the line again. Totally worth it for the more expensive ticket. Around 2 we are hungry and have seen almost everything. We stop in the gift shop and I buy a ring and earring set. ($64.76). I forget to use my 10% discount for being a friend. :( I wanted a necklace too but didn’t like the ones they had there so I’ll try to find a matching piece at home.
2pm - My friend has been trying to get herring for the whole trip so we make it a point to do that. The first place is a bust so we find a little stand that sells it a 15 min walk away. We are determined, so we head there. I don’t eat fish so I get a shawarma on the way, which is terrible (cash). I throw half away. After lunch we get ice cream. I get coffee ice cream, and it makes up for the bad shawarma ($6). We also stop at the peanut butter store, which is allegedly the first in the world, and I pick up 3 small jars for my mom for Mother’s Day ($8.11). We also stop at a thrift store and i buy a dress ($21.59). At some point this day (I think), we also stop at another bookstore, and I buy a few things including a card, a couple gifts, and a book ($39.71).
6pm - After resting a bit, we get two more free drinks at the hotel and then head out to dinner. We pick another Asian place. I get an aperol spritz at dinner and we share appetizers (satay, spring rolls, and bitterballen). We also get coconut ice cream with mango sauce for dessert. All yum! ($33.03).
We get one final drink at a local bar near the hotel ($10.20) and I’m again grateful for our choice of neighborhood. Today has been all walking because our 4-day metro pass ran out yesterday. Total steps 13k.
Day 7 (Total $36.93)
8am - this our last day. The plane was supposed to leave at 1:30pm, but we get a message that it’s delayed an hour. We decide to have a leisurely breakfast. We pick a place that’s at a hotel near our hotel. I get an egg sandwich and my friend gets French toast. We both get coffee. ($15.27)
We decide to leave for the airport around 11. We walk to the central station about 20 min away, and I buy wooden tulips for my mom on the way (cash). We buy train tickets (cash) and get right on a train. We are proud of ourselves for our navigation on this trip.
12pm - we get to the airport and through security. We head to a lounge but there’s a line. We are 40th in line based on our QR code place. We decide not to wait and sit down for lunch at a random bar. I get a sausage and a beer ($20.66). We walk around some and get another message that our flight is delayed more, to 4pm. It’s finally our turn to get into the lounge at 2:30 (2 1/2 hour wait) so we go. I grab some water and a whiskey and coke but we just ate so we are not hungry. Around 3 we head to the gate. Unfortunately when we get there our flight is delayed more and will board at 4. They give us airport vouchers so we buy a book, beer, and some stroopwaffles ($1 after vouchers). We finally board and head off around 5.
On the flight we are served dinner. They have run out of chicken by the time they get to me, but eventually find one and bring it to me later. I have a wine too. I read, watch a movie, and try to sleep a little. We have a whole row of four to ourselves so we can spread out. Dinner is a French bread pizza.
8pm - We land around 7pm (love time zone math!), grab our bags, and get a taxi to my car ($27.09). I drop off my friend and get home at 8:30. I am exhausted but cuddle my cats for about an hour before going to bed. 15k steps today
After trip expenses - $225 cat sitting

Lodging: $804.88
Food/drinks: $531.38

Final parting thoughts - I think just over $2k for an almost-week long trip to Europe is a pretty comfortable number for me. I am glad I could use points for most of the flight. We definitely didn't try to cheap out on anything. We spent a lot of money drinking (neither of us drink this much usually). I hope this was helpful to anyone, and I look forward to reactions/comments!

Trip planning - My (40F) best friend from college (39F) and I decide to go to Amsterdam on a birthday trip. We both turn 40 in 2024, and we decide to go in May because it's in between our birthdays and because it'll be tulip season in Amsterdam! Neither of us have been. We also haven't travelled together before, despite being friends for 20(!) years, so we are a little apprehensive, although we have spent a lot of time together over the past few years. We decide on a 6 day trip. For purposes of this diary I'm going to list my half of the expenses for things we split. Costs are in US dollars, despite paying using Euros. As a side note, I also am a little over one year post-Gastric Bypass, which has a limited effect on my diet (I try to eat low carb, but you'll see that I mostly fail at this on this trip!).

Day 1 (Total $21.17)
Our flight is at 5:30pm, so we planned to be at the airport by 3:30pm, which actually turned out to be 4pm. Uber ($21.17). After checking bags (included in flight price) and getting through security we made it to our gate right as boarding was about to start. No time for food or drinks.
On the plane I eat a snack of roasted chickpeas before dinner, which was chicken cacciatore with mashed potatoes, bread, cheesecake, cheese, and a salad. And two glasses of wine. I save the cheesecake and cheese for later.
My friend and I watch a movie (Poor Things) and then try to sleep. I am reading A Fault In Our Stars, because Amsterdam. I try unsuccessfully to sleep for awhile and then go back to reading. At some point i eat the cheese and cheesecake. Breakfast is a cheese roll, which i eat a couple bites of (OMG does all of Amsterdam have this much cheese?? - spoiler alert… yes it does!). I wish I had slept more.
Day 2 - Even though it feels like a continuation of day one. (Total $207.02)
7am - We land at 7 and then grab the bags and go through customs. Easy peasy. We are exhausted so we grab coffee at the airport before figuring out public transit ($5.10). I take out 60 euro for cash in case we need it ($65).

11:30am - Back at the room we decide to rest for 90 minutes. Enough to catch up on sleep but not to waste the day and get more jet-lagged. After a rest we decide to walk around and get a feel for the neighborhood and do some shopping. We find a bookstore, and I buy a copy of my favorite book from high school, Tess of the D’Ubervilles with a beautiful cover and gold edges ($21.46). We also buy fries with truffle, mayo, and Parmesan at a fry shop ($3.32) (that’s all they have and they are delicious!). We also stop a grocery store and pick up a few things including yogurt, cheese, salami, apples, and an energy drink ($13.19). We have some early days planned and nothing seems to open early. It’s very cold and rainy and semi unpleasant.
6pm - We drop stuff off, bundle up, and head off to dinner and a tour of the red light district. We try to find a place that serves Snert, a Dutch pea soup, but strike out.

2pm - My friend has been trying to get herring for the whole trip so we make it a point to do that. The first place is a bust so we find a little stand that sells it a 15 min walk away. We are determined, so we head there. I don’t eat fish so I get a shawarma on the way, which is terrible (cash). I throw half away. After lunch we get ice cream.

2024.05.14 22:47 B_Wolf91317 The End…. of Us All?
Long time reader, first time commenter (lol remember when people would say this on the radio?)
As someone who is relatively deeply enthralled into the conspiracy space compared to a lot of my friends (due to being terminally online for work, and, having a deep interest and thirst for knowledge outside of regularly scheduled programming) does anyone else get the feeling we are on the cusp of some cataclysm that is unavoidable?
I feel like this can be seen and felt from all angles, take your pick.
Russia has drawn their red lines and NATO/Ukraine seems increasingly willing to test and prod (Listen to any recent update from Scott Ritter)
Israel will likely escalate and face consequences for what is happening in Rafah
Between the recent meme stock resurgence in holding short positions the market cannot maintain without heavy manipulation that is already on top of our fiat system likely coming to either its inevitable collapse, or, switch into dystopian digital currency since so many global markets are now directly linked together.
The complete lack of transparency and blatant corruption of the US Government to the point where the collusion between it and the media plays as a complete farce to anyone paying attention with 2 brain cells. Of which the participants of said Gov’t are much more concerned with lining their own pockets at the expense of the people they are charged to govern.
The overwhelming influx and invasion of the US and other European countries who are teetering on their own destruction on their own let alone these tens, hundreds of thousands, if not millions of people who are all invading us at unprecedented levels from a numbers perspective, but also demographically being very concerning.
The veiled threats of an ‘attack’ on the way that have increased ten fold in the last 6 months from within whether it be an attack on the grid or something akin to 9/11.
Our healthcare system (which is also directly linked to Gov’t) is also just as poised to poison us at every turn for the sake of return on profit, again, at the expense of the people.
The hyperactive solar activity that could realistically at the very least wipe out our grid any time the sun wants to snap its fingers and wants a reset.
The seemingly never ending threat of bio-designed viruses that always seem to be on the brink of a new outbreak that both demand stricter lock downs and again, depopulation.
Rental, property ownership, and just in general city living has become out of control to a degree where people can barely afford to sustain a moderate existence.
The more you dig, the more you learn just how stacked the cards are against you, and even if you somehow do manage to create something successful that allows you to ‘escape’ the rat race that is our current mouse dystopia - if the world is going to burn, does it really matter?
I, like many of you I assume, day dream about unplugging from it all and escaping into the woods to either die trying to survive, or thrive knowing I have no obligation or responsibility beyond ensuring my own survival and anyone that were to come with me…..
But recently these dreams just seem like exactly that, dreams, like there is no escape from the armageddon we are slowly walking towards.
I guess I just feel a sense of both hopelessness and restlessness because as of now it just seems like a liminal waiting game. I feel lonely in these thoughts because try as I may to discuss these things more openly amongst people I trust and care for, they don’t seem to care, or scoff at the idea as though I am Chicken Little.
And I didn’t even mention the upcoming election… lol
Anyways, just wanted to post in hopes of maybe someone else feeling the same way, or to just not feel as lonely in sharing and someone connecting the same dots I am. Honestly I’ll likely delete this because in the end, it doesn’t matter.
Whelp - hold and love the ones you dear most while you can.

2024.05.14 22:47 SparkleBubblegum Need guidance, willing to pay
Hello ! I just received an iPad I won ( yay!) And I'm ready to dive into digital art after years of pencil and paper doodles. Unfortunately I didn't realize just how much more difficult it is. I settled on CSP for software but I don't even know where to begin. I feel like there is both too much and too little information out there with some things totally gatekept, especially since my dream is to start animating one day down the line as well. Here is the kind of art I want to make:
https://www.instagram.com/reel/C2PnIkOL0b9/?igsh=ZW9sYWM4bGh3M3Qw ( clip of Puparia I'm really inspired by )
https://www.instagram.com/reel/C2mqIPZqOE5/?igsh=MWNzZ21pZXNjaWVrcQ==
Anyway, I really just need help. I'm willing to pay for classes or even a tutor of some kind. Any direction of tutorials or videos of someone with a similar style. Ideally just focusing on the drawings first before animation. I really appreciate any replies, thank you

- I can stretch out the time to a plausible length for timed exams and assignments before submitting them.
- Have reliable software that can change my IP address to match the closest major city near the student.
- I have exceptional multiple-choice exam-taking skills. I have mastered the various techniques to make calculated guesses for the correct option in standardized exams such as the SAT & GRE.
- I have no problem with requests to solve sample problems upfront to prove my knowledge & proficiency of the course concepts.
- I can provide glowing references & strong examples of work done for past clients to verify my academic skills.
- I can also provide, upon request, complete detailed calculations with explanations for solutions to the problems worked on.

2024.05.14 22:44 FinishThick7881 Part of my rent randomly paid off in CT
So I started renting this place about 9 months ago. The apartments in a large building, about 90 units. Due to how my paychecks line up, I’ve had to pay rent a few days late before, and it’s never been a problem, it’s just a $5 fee per day late.
I get paid tomorrow, and am planning on paying rent then, 5 days late. I went and checked the apartments website and out of the blue, it says I paid $1450 yesterday. I checked with my roommates and none of them made the payment. I still owe about $800 more.
Should I say anything to the landlord? I just have no idea where this money came from.

2024.05.14 22:42 ProximoNova Spacious 1Bed1Bath with Den available in Allston from June 15th
I'm looking for someone to take over my lease starting from June 15th. Moving out for a bigger unit as family is growing. Breaking lease early is costlier and new tenants would end-up paying broker fees. This could be a win-win for both of us.
Apartment is close to Griggs St. T-stop on B-line. Apartment has high celings, a Den, a larger than usual living room, and pretty big bedroom that fits king-size bed + office desk + dresser easily. Building has elevator, laundry in the basement.
Interested parties please DM to schedule visits.

2024.05.14 22:41 Acrobatic_Fuel9714 I don’t like working here.
The environment is great, but the pay and hours are so awful.
I get scheduled about 15 hours a week, I can often get that number to 20ish hours by covering other shifts but base line is about 15 hours. They don’t post schedules for the up and coming week until Saturday, which I don’t believe gives adequate time.
The pay is actually horrible. It’s the worst paying job I’ve ever done (it is my second job so not much experience but whatever.) I’m 17 and when they hired me they didn’t know I was pregnant. My starting pay was 8$ an hour (still my current pay after almost 5/6 months) That means I can’t even afford to buy a number one meal on an hour of work. Is that not insane? I asked for a raise about 2/3 weeks ago and was denied. Which I understood because maybe they didn’t think I had enough experience, but I work like a dog for this company. I take so many shifts. I also learned that my new coworker who is younger than myself and this is their first job started off with a higher base pay than myself. She started at 9, which is still awful, but I just don’t understand.
This company is so loved but they really don’t care about their employees.

2024.05.14 22:39 SparkleBubblegum Need guidance, willing to pay
 | Hello ! I just received an iPad I won ( yay!) And I'm ready to dive into digital art after years of pencil and paper doodles. Unfortunately I didn't realize just how much more difficult it is. I settled on CSP for software but I don't even know where to begin. I feel like there is both too much and too little information out there with some things totally gatekept, especially since my dream is to start animating one day down the line as well. Here is the kind of art I want to make: submitted by SparkleBubblegum to Artadvice [link] [comments] https://www.instagram.com/reel/C2PnIkOL0b9/?igsh=ZW9sYWM4bGh3M3Qw ( clip of Puparia I'm really inspired by ) https://www.instagram.com/reel/C2mqIPZqOE5/?igsh=MWNzZ21pZXNjaWVrcQ== Anyway, I really just need help. I'm willing to pay for classes or even a tutor of some kind. Any direction of tutorials or videos of someone with a similar style. Ideally just focusing on the drawings first before animation. I really appreciate any replies, thank you |
2024.05.14 22:37 jvstdai unemployment question.
hey guys, not sure if this is the correct sub to post this on but ill try anyways, (i live in the NYC area btw) so long story short i worked for a security agency that would send me to different locations to work, i ended up being really liked at one location and worked there, more than 40hrs a week for almost two years.. recently the head guy of that location requested i not be sent there moving forward because i “called out” although i gave the supervisor (next in command) a day notice i wouldnt be showing up, anyway, the agency then told me they’d line something up for me but i haven’t heard from them since, its now week 3 since this happened, so this morning i applied for unemployment under “lack of work”, of course the agency finally calls me back this morning but i missed the call, no message was left, im curious what you guys think? should i still go through w/ my unemployment claim or should i call them back to see if they have work available? do you guys think they would block my unemployment? since the employer pays for the taxes, i think, im slightly worried they might push back, but do they even have a case without me being contacted for weeks? honestly, i felt like it was a huge slap in the face to not keep me undated and basically job less for 3 weeks, unpaid of course, i now feel like i don’t owe them anything seeing how they left me stranded for almost an entire month, even though i’ve come through from them time and time again, sometimes even working as much as 80hrs a week for months on end, which also made me think maybe i should get out of this field and find something long term, with a pension, health care, benefits etc, anyways, any help is appreciated and thank you guys for helping me out in advance! have a great day.

2024.05.14 22:32 holtj285 Looking for a Large SUV under 30k
My wife and I currently have a 2022 Volkswagen Tiguan SEL R-Line that we have had consistent issues out of since day one. We were not planning on getting rid of this car for another couple of years but we are growing tired of constant problems on a car we bought brand new. That being said we are looking for a larger SUV as I am 6’5” and we are looking into the next few years for us and that most likely has children in it. We are looking for something where I can drive and have space for a rear facing car seat behind my seat. We also would like to have similar features to what we have in our current Tiguan (heated seats, memory seats, CarPlay) but those are absolute dealbreakers. I am pretty mechanically inclined so higher miles doesn’t scare me as much if the price is right. We have looked at the new/newer options on the market and don’t love anything enough to pay 50-60k for it.
TLDR: Looking for a safe and reliable larger SUV to accommodate rear facing car seats behind a 6’5” driver. Ideally looking to stay under 30k but open to other options if new/CPO.

2024.05.14 22:29 abhr83 Can the neighbor be held financially responsible for the removal of this tree?
 | Hello, I really need some advice concerning the removal of this tree as I have exhausted my research. This tree, I don’t know the species, is roughly 30’ tall. The base is in the very back corner of my neighbors yard, but starting roughly 5’ up starts to grow over my yard. All of the growth from that point is over my property, including the very top. This tree was trained by the power company backwards so that it didn’t interfere with the high voltage lines directly over the back property line. Currently it’s interfering with my ability to put a 6’ fence up at the property line, grow grass in my backyard, my backyard is constantly filling with shoots, and it’s just a messy and ugly tree in general (my opinion, I know). As much as I dislike the idea of removing a healthy tree that’s this mature, it’s greatly inhibiting my ability to use my property how I choose and I’ve been left with a crumbling fence and a dirt lawn because of it. I am looking for advice specifically related to pushing some or all of the cost to the owner of the tree. The property has changed owners since I have lived here but the new owner has agreed it should be cut down, but since this tree doesn’t affect anyone but me, they don’t want to pay anything towards its care or removal. Because it grows over low voltage power lines, telecom lines, is hard to access with the size of our yards, and is so tall, the cost to remove is more than I can afford (5-7k range with the few estimates I’ve had). Is there any way to push this cost to them, through HOI or similar? If it were to fall, it would risk live wires in my yard and crush part of my home, not to mention the risk that the roots potentially can cause. I appreciate any and all feedback I receive. We are in the process of repairing our fences and I can’t figure out how to get around this roadblock without going broke in the process. I will restart this conversation with my neighbor but I am looking to have a legal leg to stand on, versus just relying on goodwill. submitted by abhr83 to treelaw [link] [comments] |
2024.05.14 22:27 colorpup1 A Shitty Situation...
Sorry if this is too long but I really need to get this out since it happened so recently.
It was just an ordinary day at the grocery store I work at. Part of my job as a customer service lead is to hop on an express lane when the cashier lines are getting backed up... and I do just that, prompting a customer who had just a few items to check out at my line. Now, if I had to venture a guess, I would say this woman is around late 40s to mid 50s, so nowhere near elderly. We didn't exactly chat it up at my register, so I didn't really get a read on her, but she seemed ordinary.... or so I thought.
I do my usual greeting, she greets me back, and I start ringing up her items. Halfway through the transaction, the strong, foul smell of SHIT fills up my nostrils and I immediately think, "what the fuck is that smell?". Now for those of you who have worked in retail as long as I have, you would know that stinky customers are not uncommon, so I just came to the natural conclusion that this woman was one of them, or maybe she just ripped a fat one (you know what they say about 'silent, but deadly'). Or maybe they were burning something in the deli, I don't know. The point is, I don't think too much of it in that moment. I cash this woman out and she quickly leaves. The smell still lingers. Finally, I walk around to the front of my register.....Guys. Tell me why there were MULTIPLE piles of shit on the floor.
REELING from the shock from what the fuck I just saw, I dazedly walk over to my manager and tell her "I think a customer just took a shit at my register". She gets the mop and cleans it up (Thank GOD I didn't have to do it), then we go to the back office to check the cameras to find out where it came from (I was in denial that it was actual human feces). We could see the turds dropping from between her legs (she was wearing a dress), and then when she walks over to the pinpad to pay she actually steps in her own shit and tracks it across the floor.
This happened yesterday, and I spent almost the whole evening after my shift as well as this morning applying for new non-retail jobs because WTAF. I do not get paid enough to deal with this shit (pun intended).
TLDR: Customer took a shit while checking out at my register and left like nothing happened.

2024.05.14 22:21 curvy_em Doubles, Pairs Twos ✌️
While listening to this album I've noticed several instances where there is two of something or word is used only twice. I have a feeling there are more so please comment on the ones I've missed. I'm sure a lot of these are just because of how she writes and the themes she writes about but I'm wondering if some of them are actually linked.
It's interesting because of how many times she did ✌️ in photos before and after TTPDs release. Is she still doing it because that's her thing? Or maybe we are supposed to be paying attention to twos?
Two featured artists, Post Malone and Florence Welch
Two writers, Jack and Aaron
Two songs written solo (Who's Afraid and The Manuscript)
Braid - But Daddy I Love Him and loml
The Starting Line - The Black Dog and Fresh Out The Slammer (One is referring to a band and the other to the beginning of something, so maybe this one is a coincidence?)
Florida - Fortnite and Florida
Texas - Florida and I Can Fix Him
Cage - Guilty As Sin and Who's Afraid
Precocious - I Hate It Here and But Daddy I Love Him
Throttle - So High School and The Prophecy
Locks - Guilty As Sin? and Fresh Out The Slammer ** "locked me up in towers" The Albatross - don't know if this counts as a third instance.
Please let me know if there are any more doubles or if there are more times these things come up so they're not actually doubles 😋
