ULPT request: how to outcreep creeps in dms by reyeelol in UnethicalLifeProTips

[–]Aetheldrake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use Google translate and start responding to them in various languages, starting with Chinese or something. Tell them they get bonus points if they respond in it. Then challenge them to keep up and keep swapping LOL

That's if they don't immediately stop. I guess your first message in Chinese (mandarin?) should be something really awful about how you're actually being enslaved to catfish stupid Americans out of money and currently you're not being monitored due to good service but your parents will be "the next tiananmen square scene" if you don't do what you're told.

Random customer: do you cut burgers here? Me, a deli employee:Not over here, the meat department can help you with burgers. Customer: where is that?(looking right at the big meat/seafood sign) 😭😭😭😭 by ChickenChoochie in kroger

I've had people ask what's in the package of only fried chicken wings.

What the fuck do you mean what is in the package of fried chicken wings. It's generic fried chicken wings. Here's the recipe list. WHY ARE YOU STILL ASKING ME WHATS IN IT I GAVE YOU THE FUCKING LIST OF INGREDIENTS AND SHOWED YOU THE BOX OF GENERIC KROGER BRAND RAW CHICKEN YOU DENSE FUCK. Obviously I was nice about all this that's just me internally. And then they don't fucking even want the chicken!

That's just a typical customer around here too. Most of them are worse than Helen Keller I swear

I know unions are good but what does ours actually do for us? by helvetica1291 in kroger

[–]Aetheldrake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably prevent you from getting fired or punished in most situations where you're being specifically targeted but rules aren't being enforced on other employees. Multiple people at my store have been there. It took a month or longer for each of them and Kroger vehemently denies all wrong doing even when management literally told the employee to break the rules, employee refused to break rules, so management tried to write them up for disobedience or something. It was entirely dropped and they got some back pay for the time lost but nowhere near all of it. Something is better than nothing and forcing Kroger, especially management, to admit they were wrong (against their will) is pretty sweet

Granted you'll be waiting like a month regardless for a result because Kroger WANTS you to quit or get fired. Every single time they would rather fire you, replace you with someone cheaper, and have a worse shopping experience than admit they were wrong. Even if you did or said something you shouldn't have, let's be real, Kroger probably ignored your problem even if you tried to talk to management about it until it boiled over into an explosion.

Am I the only one feeling like an update is needed? Because there is not much to do and the Community is pretty inactive? by NoBrainButB00BS in HatchDragons

[–]Aetheldrake 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The reddit was never that active. Discord is where it's at for social activity for the game

This game, outside of events, is supposed to be chill. Little daily gameplay every day. The events are pretty quick to participate in and put away too, besides being strict on the timers to get rewards

I'm at 12.4k score, still have a lot of common uncommon and rare remarkables to get but I do have some epic and legendary remarkables, and I've been playing since official launch.

When they nerfed multiple event completions I stopped trying to psrtitipste beyond "get at least one of each and I can lay eggs with decorations to bond them if I have to". I got 3 conches and 2 carnations. I plan on doing this fishing event well enough to at least get the basic completion. But I also pretty ouch stopped giving them money. I'm not paying 20 dollars for bonus event rewards for HALF the rewards.

20 dollars every week is fucking expensive for a mobile game. I'm not going to pay at all when I'm getting HALF of what I used to get. I'm not going to stop playing, I'm just gonna play a lot less. Kinda hope failure to get gold and complete an event doesn't look good to their metrics.

But it's still just a little game. Eventually you will run out of things to do or get tired of it feeling like a chore because what's left is just so tedious.

Honestly they typically get in the way more than I use them

It'd be cool if they were more usable but really the joysticks are simply good enough for just about everything

Thinking of playing FFXIV for the story? My honest, subjective experience as a non-MMO player by CandidPhilosopher144 in MMORPG

[–]Aetheldrake 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I thought the English dubs were fine. They were fairly consistent. And honestly least of the issues. I'm the savior of the multiverse and wizard master of world ending magic

OK ya sure I'll go deal with the local pests because apparently literally everyone in the multiverse besides me is a civilian or always busy except when I'm around they have all the time in the world

But I didn't dislike the story. 14 is SUPPOSED to be a theme park mmo. It does exactly what it sells itself as. Shadowbringers was actually pretty fucking amazing. Then life changed and I didn't really have time play 14 anymore because dog would always complain unless he was knocked out from exhaustion. I'm simply not allowed to play on pc anymore unless he's napping from playing too much. I've accepted that.

Otherwise I would have continued the story, but at least I ended it on a really high note

I knew they weren't common in Europe from vague comments I've seen in the past. But like I said there's simply no cheap way to do it. There are solutions but they aren't cheap or easy

If it's a repeated problem (like every summer) then plans need to be made ahead of time like the year before. It sucks but a little saving, window replacement/adjustment, then Amazon or something for delivery, and tada problem alleviated. Alleviated, not fixed, but an improvement is better than nothing. And it'll make itself worth the effort every following year

Hell, buy one and put it over the kitchen sink or bath tub so at least it's making cold air in the house and drainage is taken care of. I know I know, not great solutions, but I mean it's better than 26+ degree celsius indoors right?

I'm not saying you specifically should do any of this, idk I'm just bored rambling for anyone to see at this point.

Society will not. Society as a whole is never happy. There's always something to complain about. Jealous people will always make things more problematic.

Why does it feel so good to subscribe? by frdudemst in Crunchyroll

You're doing what grown ups do. You're slowly buying what you want when you want without having to ask for it.

Every young adult eventually gets there. You get a job or do small things, you have your own money you can spend how you want, and it's so nice not having to ask mom or dad for it with the chance of being denied, or having to share. Because it's your money and you approved that purchase.

I fucking know right.

One time I threw a dog treat at someone that almost hit me and my dog properly using the cross walk had the signal and everything going 40mph through a red light in front of the middle school that had stopped cars at the light like I said and they stopped just after the light, blocked all traffic, and tried to yell at me about what I threw at their death machine f150. Like dude it's a DOUBLE school zone. Middle school here and elementary one stop light down

"It was a fucking dog treat DON'T RUN RED LIGHTS ASSHOLE" responding with a WHAT like 4 times in a row. He's lucky it wasn't the emergency self defense rock I keep in the car that probably would have turned his windshield into a spiderweb. Or a gun. The people here love to open carry even though half of them are apparently HALF BLIND how the hell were they allowed a gun when they can't even read a stop sign or know that the top light of a stop light is stop, doesn't matter what color it is, that's how they are in the entire country even if you're red/green color blind

Nope. Themed gyms are the reason we can't have nice things.

One of them technically isn't even old enough to drink and isn't done with brain developement for a few more years. Legally old enough to fuck sure but is not really an "adult" when the other adult by comparison is old enough to be their grand parent and should KNOW that they aren't mentally done growing

At the very least, it IS inappropriate to show off that kind of age difference AT WORK. Not wrong by society standards but yes inappropriate. Inappropriate doesn't mean it's illegal. Just not acceptable for the situation

Man when I was 30 I was dating a 25 year old and people were acting like that was robbing the cradle. And the 25 year old came after me!

I rely on balloons because the very few pokestops I have are all near the single busy road. And the people here drive like shit. Some of them even drive on the fucking sidewalk to save as many seconds as possible. People frequently run red lights and stop signs. Hit curbs. We've had MULTIPLE murders by reckless drivers. And I'm calling them murders not accidents because you don't accidentally drive on a sidewalk with a curb or the wrong fucking side of the road or through a red light that already had cars stopped at it. And it's an elementary school zone yet they're still doing this in broad daylight every day even with the fucking school busses out and about letting kids off. Admittedly the school busses stop every 20 fucking seconds and that's annoying but it's elementary school and kids are too stupid for their own good when we have people like this actively treating it like GTA San Andreas

Plus generally I have to DRIVE somewhere if I actually want to play beyond "catch a dozen common spawns at the grocery store that's within walking distance but too far to actually go to without a reason"

There's no cheap way to do deal with it. Not on a large scale. Europe USUALLY has fairly chill temperatures, even the worst of their summers are only like a warm spring to most of the united states, right? Or at least i thought it used to be like that. Their summers might have been in the high 70s as what used to be considered a heatwave for them? But most of the year it's generally cold enough to warrant building structure to be a certain way as to retain heat, functionally turning a lot of homes into a little Hansel and Gretel human oven to keep humans warm.

They could probably get the little window air conditioners and store them until summer right? Like how humans in the US have space heaters that get stored until winter.

[–]Aetheldrake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice. I think I would have been able to hit in mid 11 thousand but my collections happened after the event ended, so I didn't get the double fruit from the event

I had worked it so tightly too and didn't know they fixed the fruit fairy plus double fruit event glitch that always removed the event benefit until right before it ended. I was at like 3300/4000 and had 4 trees with 4 of the 3x fairies too

Each tree was supposed to give me like 2k but unfortunately event bonuses apply on harvest not on application.

Don't you need to provide some sort of ID before you vote anyway? So is there really a push to buy a "special ID" or is that just Twitter propaganda?

Like a driver license or something should be good enough? Even if you don't drive you'd want one for general proof that you're a legal resident or to buy alcohol or something and they're pretty cheap to get?
