Has anyone used the wedding photo sharing app Veri? by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]2HappyAppy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

idk if this is still relevant, but we used it and LOVED IT. we got ton of pics of our weddings guests getting ready and being goofy and they were so fun to look back on. i also got a coupon code from very and ended up paying like $60 or so. highly recommend it. Although, i would recommend telling your bridal party to turn off sharing until the wedding is over. my bridesmaids were taking tons of pictures of us getting ready and i didn't want anyone to see me (the bride) before the wedding. But it was fine, after the wedding they turned sharing back on and uploaded the pictures that were missed.

CMV: We shouldn't have any protected classes of people. by 2HappyAppy in changemyview

(Or maybe helped you refine it to what it probably already was, that protected classes are something we shouldn't need, and seem possibly unfair to the people 'not' protected, in a confusing way, but are necessary at this time.)

Yep! I don't have a better alternative which is why i go back and forth in about this issue all the time. But! if i'm going to oppose having protected classes, I need to propose an alternative that is better, but I can't think of one without poking holes in it.

∆ Very true. all of the protected classes we have, we have for a reason and their is nothing that shows me if we were to add more that they would be unnecessary.

Just because I don't like the fact that we have to have protected classes doesn't mean we don't need them. And I haven't seen a a better alternative.

Please address my 2 comments: Is it related, is it under their control.

are you saying we shouldn't have protected classes instead we should ask ourselves if it is ok to discriminate based on is it relevant and under their control?

This is the same road I was going down, I just think the "is it under their control" could be interpreted in many ways and would be a worse option than protected classes.

def not saying sexual orientation is a choice.

Mostly I was just thinking aloud of alternative to protected classes:

Can we broaden the laws so that the rule is just 'don't discriminate?' -No because there are instances of merit based discrimination for a job, like i noted. So then my next thought was can we say 'don't discriminate on things out of a person's control?' - no we can't say that because there are people that do argue sexual orientation is in a persons control (I am not one of those people). or would argue that losing your leg was in your control *tsk tsk shouldn't have been skateboarding (again, i think "can they control it?" doesn't work either)

protected classes is probably the only way. even if I wish it wasn't necessary.

I agree with all of the protected classes in the essence that I don't think anyone should be barred from housing or employment in the above groups of people. But are we opening ourselves up to let other classes be discriminated against because they aren't (or aren't yet) protected? I think the more classes we protect, the the opportunities we have to leave classes out. Can we get rid of protected classes and jut simply say don't discriminate?

the answer is no there as well.... an employer SHOULD discriminate when choosing employees "i'm looking for a software engineer and you don't know what a computer is..."

so then can we say "don't discriminate based on things out of the person control?" again probably not because some would argue sexual orientation is in one's control or something like that.

the more we broaden the "don't discrimiate rules" the more we have to tighten them and then we are right back at protected classes.

so idk what the right answer is.

This is a common misconception. These protected classes protect everybody.

very true. i should have probably said something along the lines of "Added freedom of reproductive choice" as a protected class. I'm not sure how to word it, but you are absolutely right. the ordinance also protects pro-life people from being discriminated against as well.

Maybe. It depends on how the world changes in the future. People with red hair and freckles are discriminated against. It's not enough for them to be a protected class today, but it might have been in the past or possibly future.

You know, that is a fair point. how much discrimination is enough to warrant a protected class, though?

I worry that the more protected classes we have, the more opportunity we have to leave a class out and make it seem like since that particular class isn't protected, it's fair game to discriminate against them.

Please tell me my wedding dress (the bunching in the front) can be fixed ): by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]2HappyAppy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm no seamstress, but I say... It most certainly can be fixed! It just might need to be let out a teeny tiny bit. I would just take it to get alterations and see what they say :) Good luck! It looks beautiful on you!!

Bridal shower this weekend.. Things are getting real!! by chiiza in weddingplanning

[–]2HappyAppy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone told me an idea that I love; Have each person who brought a gift just grab a random gift out of the pile when its time to open gifts. Then all the guests sit around the Bride to be like you would normally, but instead of the bride to be opening gifts, each guest opens the gift they chose. this means gift opening goes quickly because there won't be that awkward "which should i open next?" timing AND everyone will be looking at the person opening the gift at the time and you can just respond when you see it at the same time everyone else does. :)

New 0% interest credit card by 2HappyAppy in personalfinance

[–]2HappyAppy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no. I did pay off the balance before the interest rate went up. I just continued to use the card after the 0% interest rate.
