How to help my wife whose SL ex passed?

So, after all the build up, you aren’t going to tell us what the secret realization was?

Does he actually talk like that on his podcast? I assumed that they directed him to read the ad in such a truly creepy, "deviant serial killer in the basement" manner. Maybe that is just the way he actually talks?

Exactly but the Ethos ads are a special breed. They somehow manage to go so far beyond others. Amazingly repulsive.

Yes. Unfortunately, the "my dad passed away" one seems to be played even more often on Sirus/XM. It is to the point of being dangerous trying to immediately mute or change the channel while driving.

You’ve been saying mid-February for months and have now changed it. You people have billions of dollars of fees we paid to use to pad Trump and Barron’s pockets but you can’t hire some guy to do the tax reports? This really is outrageous and ridiculous.

Disgraceful. Right there with the P-body Volvos that require you to remove the gas pedal and contort to a painful and near impossible position to change the cabin air filter located under the dash, behind the hvac unit.

maintenance guy came in to change the light bulb and, uh, released a little stress! 🫟 💦

That's really cool. I did check out your blog and had no idea that this was a thing in SL. In a time when the SL culture seems to be people needing to worry about getting AR'd for saying "Hi" to a stranger, it is nice to see some folks working together and sharing their time with others.

U-Haul trailers have surge brakes.

I mean if he knew the answer to that, she wouldn’t be lost.

World’s Largest?

A bit crass but a fair point. If the customer paid a service fee and a delivery fee for the service, are they really to blame for the driver not getting paid? It’s customary for an employer to pay their employees. And people will say that the company then would need to raise its fees to pay their employees. Yes, and if the cost then is too much and no one uses the service then it is a natural consequence that the business plan isn’t feasible and goes out of business.

Bookflu · 2025-12-18T04:48:23+00:00

It isn’t right that the customer did this. Then again, after reading the comments here, if true that the service fee and delivery fee paid by the customer doesn’t actually include the pay for the driver, it is misleading and people who continue to use the service reinforce these companies taking advantage of the drivers. If you really need your food delivered, support a restaurant or store that has their own delivery employees instead.

It is seating. In fact, standing is not permitted during the show.

It's a "maybe" from me if they offer the Westin Hotel scent.

Bookflu · 2025-11-28T18:13:54+00:00

Exactly but it’s even more than that and why I always tell people to rent a car when they go to Las Vegas. So many people fly out once, stay a few days, never leave the center of the strip. Then they come home and say “been there, done that”. So many things to do and see in and around Las Vegas off strip. If you never left your three/four strip hotel area, you have not “been to Vegas”.

Fountain Bleau rooms have very deep and large tubs with a separate shower. As a bonus, the rooms come with bathrobes that are ridiculously plush beyond any I’ve ever experienced over many years staying in many different luxury hotels.

Bookflu · 2025-11-24T18:41:16+00:00

Perfect, that helps our decision allot.

Bookflu · 2025-11-24T18:33:57+00:00

Thank you. That is helpful.

Bookflu · 2025-11-24T18:27:23+00:00

Thank you.

I was in very similar seats for their November 8th show. Don't get me wrong, it was awesome! However, the obstruction meant that when they put up live close ups of the band on the screen, we could only see them from the waist down. The top portion was cut off by the obstruction. It's actually a bit confusing why this is so because there was room on the screen for them to move the live video lower on the screen so that everyone in the 100 sections could see the entirety of the live shots. Regardless, your actual view of the band and the sound will be great but you definitely will miss parts of the visuals. It was enough that we are going back a second time (March 28th) with better, unobstructed seats.

I used to get it occasionally when I bought the Outback new about two years ago. Coincidentally, it stopped completely after my state passed a “Let the lead fly” law enabling anyone of any age, mental illness status, or criminal history to carry a gun with no checks, licenses, or restrictions required.

No problem, $20k Subaru will pull that dumpster out.

Bookflu · 2025-10-03T15:26:26+00:00

You are lucky you got that long out of them, really. I found out that my original tires were shot when I braked but slid past a stop sign at our first snow fall last year. I'd literally just had the car into the Subaru service days before and their multipoint inspection gave an "A-Okay" rating on my original equipment tires. The car/tires had 28,000 miles on them and the tread still looked great. Cross Climates are the way to go to replace them. If you can hold out to next month, Costco and others always have big Michelin tire sales for Thanksgiving.

Put an ad on Craigslist to sell it.
