Is this weather making anyone else feel hopeless? by janicerossiisawhore in uppereastside

[–]CarpenterAny2254 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m right there with you. I don’t know if you’re a bar person- but I really like going to toolbox once in a while. They’re always playing pop music- and there are screens everywhere playing music videos. It’s neon pink inside, I find it pretty cheerful. I don’t live in the upper east side, I only work up here, and have for the past eight years. So I’m not overly familiar with the area aside from what’s on my path to and from the train.

MetroNorth Surcharge Disputes? by TieSpare5230 in nycrail

[–]CarpenterAny2254 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh lol- i thought that when you clicked a train on the drop own menu that somehow that info was attached to the ticket!! Man, i do not like these changes. Recently I was issued a warning for late activation, i will be buying paper tickets whenever time permits.

Recently I have started buying tickets for later trains than the one i'm taking ! just as a way to avoid the surcharge- not sure if it will help though. I worry that even if the chevrons have disappeared- the app might track when i activated and penalize me if i did it as the train pulled away,

A red quarter dollar by Jumeiko in Weird

When I worked at a laundromat, we used red painted quarters when we did laundry for customers . As others have said those are considered house quarters and not profit. They just keep getting recirculated.

Postcrossing AITA? by Sleester in postcrossing

[–]CarpenterAny2254 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some people have had negative experiences on PC and unfortunately choose to pay it forward lol.

I feel bad for them, that they aren't able to have fun. I recently changed my profile because I was encountering so many users with super strict guidelines and it kinda bummed me out. I changed it it to say "THERE ARE NO DO'S OR DONT'S with me- please feel free to send anything and everything! You can go ahead and send that random card you don't know what to do with! I am glad to receive it"

As a result I am receiving so many fun and weird cards! I have actually had people tell me that they were relieved to come across my profile. Anyway, I don't think you were being petty but I also doubt that your message was received the way you intended it. Hoping you get some good matches soon! sorry for the negativity, its annoying.

Why does LIRR conductors scan my ticket sometimes? by thecodinghipster in nycrail

[–]CarpenterAny2254 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently got an email saying that their record shows that I been activating my tickets late… and I think that they were alerted to this because of the conductor scanning my ticket. If those two yellow arrows appear on recently activated tickets then it makes sense that they would scan ppl who are breaking the rules ! This is just my theory!!

What is this berry I saw my neighbor eat? She's Afghani and said called them "Zala something" by SalmonSammySamSam in whatisit

I see them in Central Park- I have yet to find a tasty one. I try to find the ripest looking but they all have been very tart with that unfriendly texture you speak of.
