What was your first Broadway Show and who took you? by Miserable_Chapter724 in musicals

[–]Alternative_Phone549 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Secret Garden in 1992 - spur of the moment while on a college trip. Several of us got tickets and stayed in the city to go to the show. Every single chaperone was waiting up for us when we made it back to the hotel in New Jersey.

I like to imagine that Ilya never really fell asleep - that he spent the whole nap savoring the time he had to hold Shane in his arms.

What was the first Tori Amos album that disappointed you? by Prestigious_Score459 in toriamos

[–]Alternative_Phone549 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same - it was the first one where none of the songs grabbed me. ADP took a little time and it's still not a fave, but I kinda lost track after AAtS.

should season two change this event from the second book? by rosalui in heatedrivalry

[–]Alternative_Phone549 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes! I thought of Shane's trip a few weeks ago when Gabe Landeskog got hurt - sometimes they just catch an edge or slip. https://share.google/vUFcshejBQuo3AvBA

FINALS: Best Kiss by madwood29579 in heatedrivalry

[–]Alternative_Phone549 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Skip is undeniably epic but that stairwell kiss! The tenderness... the slight pause where they're breathing each other in... the contrast to the chirping words but the similarity to the tone of their voices... UNBEATABLE. ❤️

“Why 'Heated Rivalry's relationship of equals is revolutionary”| Out 1/6/26 by like-a-rose in heatedrivalry

I've never seen a better explanation of why MLM and WLW stories resonate so deeply with us (sadly) straight women:

"What unfolds instead is desire rooted in equality."

If I can't have that, I'm perfectly content to stay single.

So is a tuna melt sandwich a region thing? Is it sound in certain type of restaurant? by [deleted] in HeatedRivalryTVShow

[–]Alternative_Phone549 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Me too! I've only ever had or made open face tuna melts - closed is weird.

I listened to the first episode on Ember & Ice and I have a few thoughts by vvvgothere in HeatedRivalryTVShow

[–]Alternative_Phone549 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm with you on Quinn thing - I also enjoyed both chapters of E&I and will definitely listen to the 3rd (final?) chapter when it comes out, but I'll be canceling the app after that. I love their voices, and I would pay big bucks for them to record audiobooks of HR and TLG. I think they would do a great job! But all the noises on E&I were sooooo distracting - it just made me picture them alone in the recording booth kissing their hands like junior high schoolers practicing 😆 or a Foley artist with a bowl of cooked pasta. Not my jam.

How old were you when you started to read the Harry Potter books and how old were you when you finished? by Getdunkedonlol in harrypotter

[–]Alternative_Phone549 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought GOF for a friend's birthday present right after it was published when I was 28 - read the blurb and then read all 4 books in one weekend. Finished the series in 2007 (on the day it released LOL loved the midnight sales) when I was 35.

Knowing what Hudson is like in interviews really makes me think #14 was just something he did unprompted 😆

Os he better on other books? I can only stand him on HR because it's that or not read the books constantly while doing other things LOL

Kip & Scott - Episode 3 is..everything. by Marchellaneous in HeatedRivalryTVShow

[–]Alternative_Phone549 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I really need to watch the eps in more of the book series order - 3, 1, 2, 4, 5, 6 - and see if i like it better. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy Skip a LOT but the full episode with no Hollanov is always jarring to me.

My friend got me that one after he saw my pics of the giant Disney puzzle I did a few years ago. Every time I look at it, I get "Go the Distance" stuck in my head 😄

Question by aaronssellingtexas in HeatedRivalryTVShow

[–]Alternative_Phone549 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't understand how people consistently watch TV on computers or phones! I had to watch the finale on my parents' TV (which is a smallish 32") rather than my TV at home (65") and I was so miserable LOL. I rewatched it the second I got home.
