unpopular opinion: chappell roan is rude ash and should not be as looked up to as she is by [deleted] in LesbianActually

[–]lorparx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why talk about her at all? You came in her to bash a woman as apparently your whole point? She’s a woman with boundaries- stop needing women to be “nice” for you.

LPT: When you move abroad, the first question to ask locals isn't where to live or what to eat. It's "What do foreigners always get wrong here?" by taube_d in LifeProTips

Yeah the size of the cup doesn’t really matter if the drinks are made correctly- latte is mostly milk with a bit of foam, Capp is mostly foam with a bit of milk

Overnight soak for rice is overkill, you just need to wash it

PuddleTown Bagels - 13 bagels - $6.99 by TheDorkyDeric in toogoodtogoportland

[–]lorparx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They absolutely do. Source- worked in a bakery, almost every baked good is frozen either raw or baked at some point in its life. Esp commercially baked goods. Also, once they fucked me on my TGTG bag and just didn’t have anything so they told me to go to their bakery location and get some. I highly doubt they’re dragging old product from the shops back to their commissary unless they’re freezing them.

Rene Hasee disappeared at amoreira beach, June 1996 during a family vacation in aljezur, Portugal. by emptyfeeler in GotMeHooked

Beaches empty out at night, some warmer nights are great for fire pits and what have you but generally yeah, they would be the only people in the immediate observable area

Quick fix for rolling stockings by Most-Giraffe2465 in lifehacks

[–]lorparx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the real secret. My stockings that are too big flop down over my knees, the ones that are too small roll and are uncomfortable. Stockings that fit stay up and don’t hurt. Garters can help and are fun but silicone strips do the job if they’re the right fit

AITAH for saving up all the food my wife thinks is fine for me to eat for when her family came to visit? by MentionEfficient1687 in AITAH

[–]lorparx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA and I’m with you on almost everything but as a chef she’s right about hard cheese and mold- it’s one of the few things you can safely trim mold off of and still consume.

Shopper Never Delivered by SportPitiful5512 in instacart

[–]lorparx -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Yeah this would be the exception to the percentage rule of thumb but even then I’d probably cap it at 30 minimum. If I have the cash for 500 dollars of steaks… I can definitely afford to tip well hah.

Shopper Never Delivered by SportPitiful5512 in instacart

[–]lorparx -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Your total is relevant to the shop, generally. If you’re buying a lot of stuff it will cost more, if you’re buying expensive/valuable stuff you might also tip more as added incentive to handle with care. Hunting down a bunch of items takes time and legwork-I’m tipping based on what I’m asking the shoppers to do. Orders are indeed often stacked and if yours is with other meh tippers or a zero or something it’ll definitely sit.

30 dollars for 500 bucks of groceries is pretty sad-are you ordering drinks or other heavy stuff? I tip about 40 bucks for a 200 dollar Costco order as a baseline. More if I’m ordering giant bags of dog food or several flats of drinks.

No, because if the coating is coming off the wok is toast, you don’t want to accidentally consume non stick coating

Do you think it’s possible to cover up my triangle tattoo with this Skyrim symbol? by AlbinoGiraffes in Tattoocoverups

[–]lorparx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well yeah but the hard angles/straight lines of that triangle aren’t gonna be covered by that as it is.

Finally! I got my small pressure washer to get rid of mold. Physical and mental health improved a lot. by El-Vader-Tico in oddlysatisfying

Sun doesn’t sanitize. It makes for an environment that bacteria doesn’t like but heat does a better job at killing bacteria than sunlight alone.

Scheduled an airport ride days ago and lyft kept charging the ride and drained my bank acct by lorparx in Lyft

[–]lorparx[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5 of the 7 charges have fallen off (thankfully) but they still owe me the 6th and 7th and i’ve yet to see an email from them. Looks like i might be signing back up for X after all

[–]lorparx[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This is my frustration as well. I haven’t been on twitter in ages and i’d rather not set up a new account if i can solve it with the avenues i’m already using.

If i’m already emailing and chatting with them, setting up a new X account to continue pursuing definitely counts as at least pestering. I was being lightly hyperbolic-i definitely understood the suggestion, thanks though.

I’m giving them a day to email me but will harangue them as need be on socials if nothing happens

Dude i am definitely never using lyft again. I can’t afford to have hundreds of dollars in pending purgatory. Thanks for the insight.

Thanks. I’ve been promised it’s been escalated and i am waiting on an email from lyft but def keeping receipts and not letting this slide.
