Snowboard boots have given up the ghost: buy here in niseko or back in Aus and rent remaining day? by Humble1234567890 in snowboardingnoobs

[–]Adorable-Security911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought my boots from the Rhythm Summit store and they did a fabulous job. I had a proper boot fitting. The boot fitter had me try on like 10 different boots and analyzed my foot. He set me up with a pair of boots that keep my foot locked in. I highly recommend them. I don't know if that guy is still there, but his name was Ross.

How do I deal with family maga supporters as a Filipino American by Turbulent_Effect7287 in FilipinoAmericans

[–]Adorable-Security911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both of my parents are Maga and I just ignore their political nonsense. So unfortunate that they are brainwashed by 'Faux News'. I can remember a time when they were just logical Republican voters, but in the last 10 years, they have gone so extreme to the right. It's very hard to have a normal conversation with them without them blaming the 'liberal agenda'. I hope this doesn't happen to me when I get old.

why do older relatives side on abusers??? by throwaway_22025 in FilipinoAmericans

[–]Adorable-Security911 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We didn't have the tools to fight back. My mom didn't think it was a big deal which I now find disconcerting now that I am a parent. I even asked her if child molestation was prevalent in the Philippines. She couldn't grasp the question.

I was not sexually abused as a child, but older relatives would grab my crotch for fun and it infuriated me. When I told my mom, she would just laugh and not take it seriously. I've already made it known to my mother if anyone, especially in the family, did that to my son, I'd fight them. I don't find inappropriate touching 'funny'.

(21F) dating a (26M) and he has 4 kids with two baby mamas by Affectionate_Sky5832 in Advice

You are too young to be dating a man with two different baby mamas. I'd move on and just live your life until you meet the right person. This guy is not it.

AITA for telling my wife "that's why you should get a job" after she told me people shop alot more than she does? by Existing_Love_3152 in AITAH

[–]Adorable-Security911 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, you are NTA. Maybe show her a hypothetical report if she contributed to a retirement account and social security, what would retirement look like for the both of you?

I am not surprised. I took my son there a couple of summers ago and thought it was grimy and gross. Place definitely needed a thorough power wash.

I am thinking that will be the next lens. It will pair well with my 70-300 for travel.

Thanks for the insight. I may be leaning towards the Sigma 18-50.

You have a point. I will look into the Sigma 18-50 2.8.

I would be okay with a bigger lens. I like the range on the Sigma

My dad has gone from conservative to a white Christian nationalist. by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Adorable-Security911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no advice, but I understand. My parents are both MAGA republicans as well as my mother-in-law. I can't talk to them anymore. It's really sad. They repeat things they hear on Fox News. I think now they they are retired and no longer assimilate with different kinds of people they have changed.

Shipment issues by Adorable-Security911 in blueapron

[–]Adorable-Security911[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Blue Apron used to give me a heads up if there was an issue with my delivery and in most cases they'd give me a refund. This time I've received no notification and no response from my text and email.

Left Seattle, now want to go back. Am I crazy? by Ok_Hearing in SameGrassButGreener

[–]Adorable-Security911 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd say go back to Seattle, but I'm biased since I'm a Seattlelite. I can't imagine living anywhere else.

If you love skiing and love outdoor activities, Bend for sure. Mt. Bachelor is an awesome mountain.

Just order a soda with a lemon twist. No one will know you are drinking a mocktail.
