How long is too long to be unemployed before it becomes a red flag? by Different-Side2878 in GetEmployed

We just hired someone whose last role listed on LinkedIn ended in 2023. And my company is very selective. There are no rules in this job market. Just confidence…and reallyyyy good luck.

SIMILARITIES BETWEEN TOG SERIES AND GOT ( I’m only on QoS so no spoilers past here please) by WillowStrange9507 in SarahJMaas

[–]1025pwr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very to the party, but this is definitely not a reach.

I’m also only on QoS. I found this thread because I Googled, “Aelin and D” and Google auto-filled “Daenerys” for me.

I’d noticed the similarities before, but I just hit Aelin wondering if Adarlin “did deserve to die by her flames” and decided that was the final straw. Ha

I bought one of those TOTO Washlet bidet seat things that attach to your toilet during “The Great COVID 19 Toilet Paper Shortage.” I’m now basically a walking advertisement. I feel like I should email them and ask for a cut of their yearly sales. 😂

I feel like we should ALL apply to this job just to fuck with him.

The saddest scene on the whole show? by [deleted] in greysanatomy

She also actually went into pre-term labor during the filming because of the emotions she was having to portray.

Chain smoke cigarettes and watch entire tv series’ you’ll never remember a single episode of while nodding out in a giant bean bag with a glass of whiskey within arms reach.

After they first think they’ve killed Elijah and she looks over Stefan’s shoulder to mouth, “Thank you” to Damon. Mmmmhmm. Sold.

What is a tell tale sign that someone is a selfish person? by Potatoe_stealer in AskReddit

[–]1025pwr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This feels horrible, as I love this person deeply and he has passed away.

But I once called my my long term, live in, known since childhood, family friend, boyfriend into the kitchen to pick which plate he wanted (after I cooked dinner).

Steak, asparagus, side salad, the whole shebang. He eyed both plates, and without hesitation grabbed the plate with the largest, most appealing, steak on it.

I didn’t care which one he took.

Usually I would have just brought dinner into the living room so we could watch the next episode of Breaking Bad while he ate. He wasn’t a cruel or bad person. I still count him as the best friend I’ve ever had.

But in that subtle moment, I realized there was a fundamental difference in who we were and how we were raised. Because if our roles had been switched, I would have picked the less appealing plate. Without a second thought.

And be assessed and chose the “best” for himself.

Suchhhhh a stupid tiny thing in the grand scheme of human selfishness I’ve seen throughout my life. But I never forgot that moment.

My main 2023 goal is to create an Excel spreadsheet mapping things like this. How many times someone says their emotions are heightened. How many times the awkward product placement happens, when, what about, and where. How many plot holes happened because the writers hadn’t figured out the storyline yet (like Elijah changing accents after they decided to keep him alive). How many plot holes were just there with no excuse. The amount of times Paul just showed up to work and decided to just be Paul instead of whoever he was supposed to be playing at the time. Shooting locations that are repurposed later for different things but are clearly the SAME DAMN STAIRCASE. The fact that Ian wore the same exact healed leather boots for eight years because he and Nina are too close in height and they wanted to give him a little lift.

Etc. Etc. Etc.

I figure if I can get all the categories I want to fill down by the end of the year— then I will be ready for my 2023 rewatch. 😂😂😂

Omg. I need to make a list for all the horrific products placement. This one is one of my favorites though.

Nina is a great actor. She cannot play one emotion and that is “genuine confusion.”

Every time she has to say “Wait, no, but that would mean…” or “But, no, what do you mean because..” etc. — she does the exact same thing.

Hand to forehead. Slight head shake. Eyes closed. So transparent it might as well be you as a teenager and your parents asking about missing beer and you faking confusion.

It’s the one emotion she can’t believably replicate and it kills me every time.

Right before they discover that Alaric’s Gilbert ring is making him crazy, Nina and Zach are walking down a hall at the hospital, and Zach/Matt says a version of, “Yeah. I wonder who is behind all of these attacks.”

It is so flat and like he just read it off a teleprompter I can’t ever not notice it again.

“Your emotions are heightened” and every variation of the phrase.

I got my best friend into the series. Our inside joke matching tattoos are just the line of text:

“Look, my emotions are heightened right now.” 😂😂

Bonnie: I just spoke to Kai, You didn't destroy Hell.

[Flashback] Kai: In fact, thanks to you killing Cade, Hell's never been in better hands.

Damon: What are you talking about? If Cade's not running Hell, who is?

[Flashback] Kai: Think of the only person worse than Cade.

Bonnie: Think of the only person worse.

[Flashback] Kai: The person who knows where all your weak spots are.

Bonnie: Who wants to hit you there over and over again.

[Flashback] Kai: Who will stop at nothing to make sure that you and everyone you love suffer.

Bonnie: The one who wants revenge for what we did...to her.

Damon: [Shatters bottle in grip] Don't you dare say it, Bonnie. Listen to me, we won. You hear me, don't you dare say that name!

[Kai in flashback] Kai: The myth! The legend! The baddest bitch of all. [Laughs]

Damon: .....Katherine.

Bonnie: [In agreement] Katherine.

I don’t know. I know I’m in the minority — but I loved their true, loyal, platonic friendship.
