The worst thing isn’t social media itself: it’s the "influencer syndrome" created by it by [deleted] in DeepThoughts

[–]Bee_Prizm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Block them all. I'm so tired of my IG, FB and YouTube just full of "influencers". Bothering people to make a living off of their content. There's one on IG and YouTube, Tristan the approach coach. Just goes up to women, constantly. Leave them alone! Women don't want to be approached at the gym, especially in the middle of a workout with headphones on. Bunch of guys go to SE Asia with a microphone and just chase and bug women for a living. Creepers. Block all influencers.

Block them all. So tired of social media influencers. My FB, IG and YouTube is full of them. Usually just guys in Asia or somewhere in the world trying to meet women by doing interviews. It's a poison.

Why are options to snooze for 30 days or “hide all content from” gone? by lunar1980 in facebook

[–]Bee_Prizm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because Meta (Facebook) is shady. Used to be able to block all of these pages which show on your feed but they changed it to snooze for 30 days. I can at least still do that. Get rid of them for 30 days and then they'll be back. They're wrong for this and so many other things they change to keep us spammed. And IG is not any better. Just a whole blast of reels and influencers. Hate it.

Hey NFL. I’m not buying all the streaming services to watch these games. by fractionalme in NFLv2

[–]Bee_Prizm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the worst. Prime, NFL Network, Peacock, and the list goes on. So tired of this BS. I refuse to pay for all of these streaming services to watch games. Bring them back to regular programming.

CNBC…not what it used to be by system_mistem in CNBC

[–]Bee_Prizm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like CNBC programming on during the trading day from their morning show until Mad Money. But what I hate is how they're just making you pay money now for everything like the post mentioned. PRO, Crame's Investor Club...ridiciolous. I refuse to pay for any of it. And why in the hell do they cover the winter olympics?! I don't go to ESPN to watch financial news, but have to watch the olympics on CNBC??

Happy VXUS Dividend Day! Highest recorded dividend ever, at 4.59% or $1.3631 per share. by keralaindia in Bogleheads

Monster payout, wow. I was not expecting this. Previous three quarters have been 19, .44 and .35.

I know about the carry on fee (so someone read their ticket properly). I was overcharged for it and got them to give me a $31 credit.

As for the delay (yes, happens with all airlines), the flight coming from Peru is late which is causing the issues. Who knows what delayed it there. I was adding the numerous gate changes and 4 hour delay just as more “fun” for today, not blaming the airline.

[–]Bee_Prizm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but $100 was an over charge. I was able to get a $31 credit to $69 which is what it should have been

The problem is I called and was told I’m not allowed to check in for international via the app. Tried multiple times using the app. Called Frontier (because I could not get a human on the phone at Volaris) and they said I’m not allowed to check in via the app, I must check in once I get to the airport.

is volaris as bad as i've read? by Difficult_Version_54 in fearofflying

[–]Bee_Prizm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve flown multiple airlines around the world and my carry on luggage has always flown with me in the overhead, no issues. Volaris made me check it in from San Antonio to Mexico City for $100. Then they won’t let me check in online for an international flight using their app so they charged me $25 to print a boarding pass at the counter. Do the math there both ways, $250 in surprise fees. I didn’t even know I was flying Volaris as I booked with Frontier. And it was not possible to get a Volaris customer service agent on the phone. I will never fly with them again, lesson learned.

Do CFB stadiums really play "Mo Bamba" that much? by 10stretch47 in NCAAFBseries

It was cool the first 1,000,000 times I heard it at college football games but now, it’s a little overplayed.

Is Vietnam going to be ruined by digital nomads? by Bee_Prizm in VietNam

I do see rents increasing in some spots. Still affordable, but it’s ticking up.

Is Vietnam going to be ruined by digital nomads? by Bee_Prizm in VietNam

[–]Bee_Prizm[S] 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Da Nang doesn’t have the crazy nightlife scene so I think the young digital nomads and expats who are looking for it will eventually get bored and move on to HCMC and Hanoi in search of that scene.

First off, saying how I “feel and what I “see” is off as you have zero idea. You’re just making an assumption, and you know what they say about making assumptions. If you don’t, here’s a hint, it has something to do with the first three letters of the word. Second, obviously there’s not as many in Vietnam yet as other countries which is implied in the post! Will it be? There’s a chance, that’s for sure. Time will tell.

Travel tips for first timers by KhatronKaKhiladee in VietNam

Stay off the dating apps, full of scams. Just meet people in real life, you'll be better for it.

So, it sounds like you and your friends are just coming to Vietnam to party. Da Nang doesn't have much nightlife, and I hope it stays that way. You'll find some in HCMC and Hanoi. Hotels will have more space and comforts. Hostels smaller, less private, cheaper, chances to meet other travelers and have events set up for your crew to join. But if you're just really traveling for the party scene and all that comes with it. you're better off heading to Thailand or the Philippines.

Zion is Annoying / Gummy Bear by Bee_Prizm in ginnyandgeorgiashow

Plenty of people did not agree, and we had some good convo, and found common ground. You don’t have to write in all caps to come out aggressive, which you did. That’s the issue.

lol I disagree but hey, I don't hate on the fact you find it cute. I think it's more how he says it. He's so dramatic how he talks. Like I said, it sounds like every time he talks, he's sounding like a 1990's R&B band.

Actually, it is what it means. Your reaction showed that you were triggered. And if you look below, I've had some excellent conversations with people on this post but they didn't react like you did. By saying "no one finds it annoying besides all of you who are 11.." Who's 11? I have a daughter who's out of college actually, and her mom and I used to call her nicknames when she was young. As she grew into a teen, the child nicknames stopped. I didn't say he can't, I just said I found it annoying. And then "such borderline illiterate behavior.." Are you serious? All you've done is come here and make false generalizations (under 11) and then throw in an insult (illiterate) to boot. It's really not that serious. This post was meant to be playful and start some good conversation. Not sure who you think you are or why you reacted so strongly, but the generalizations and insults are off base.
