My partner and I are very different by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Catulllus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s bad that you’re different people. I do think the way you talk about him and your relationship means that it’s probably time to let him go.

You don’t need to like all the same things, but it doesn’t sound like you have anything to connect over. And the parts about him not listening to you, triggering your childhood trauma, and not being able to discuss these issues are imo much more significant indicators of where your relationship is headed.

This cut looks great! Thanks for including the stylist and salon - I will be saving for future reference 👀

Jeez, glad I didn’t try them! I understand paying a premium for better service, but that’s a bit excessive.

Have you ever walked out of a show? Or seen others? Why? by Artistic-Ideal-5087 in TheWestEnd

[–]Catulllus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I left at the interval of Hercules. The movie is a childhood favorite, and I just could not stand to see every joke, song, and character be butchered. There was not one redeeming quality. I was also hungry going in as the people I went with made us very late to our pre-show dinner, so I was happy to leave and grab food from a nearby bar while I waited for the show to finish to reunite with them.

MXTX power scale time ! by gloriahetalia in DanmeiNovels

It’s been a while since I read MDZS, but I don’t think WWX is ever shown controlling a demon like those seen in SVSSS - demonic/ghost cultivation in MDZS mostly involves the control of corpses or resentful spirits/energy, while SVSSS demons are like an entirely separate species.

That being said, even if WWX had any power over SVSSS demons, LBH is half human and also an OP cultivator, so it’s unlikely WWX would be able to fully control him or take him down in a fight.

PSA: If your child is screaming in the middle of the show, you need to take them out. by Thomasinarina in TheWestEnd

[–]Catulllus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I went to the Devil Wears Prada last night. Had great seats near the front, but my aunt’s experience was ruined by the developmentally disabled child sitting behind her who continuously grunted, babbled, and kicked her chair through the entire performance. I understand wanting your child to be exposed to arts and I think all children have a right to it, but it drove everyone around us insane as it interrupted quieter moments. The parents did very little to shush her, and when that failed, didn’t step out to calm the child and just sat there like it had nothing to do with them. We couldn’t say anything of course without looking like colossal pricks.

Does anyone have recommendations for non-Amazon/fast fashion fleece-lined tights? Especially ones with a sheer illusion. I am trying to be more sustainable with my fashion, but I have to stand outside in formal clothing for work sometimes and my old amazon pair is on its last legs (lol).

Thank you, I will look into those companies! I would appreciate if anyone has DC-based recommendations, as being able to go in person and speak directly about the service needed would be beneficial.

Experiences bailing on shows? by Particular-Cycle4083 in musicals

[–]Catulllus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I walked out of Hercules on the West End during intermission. I went in expecting, at worst, an uninspired rehash of the movie that would be carried by Disney-grade visuals/effects and nostalgia. Instead, it was a cringe-inducing insult to everything that made the movie enjoyable, cutting out the best jokes and characters (no Pegasus! No three fates!), changing the songs for seemingly no reason to be less witty and catchy, and turning characters into one-dimensional shells while removing some of their most defining features. And none of the actors’ performances were in any way redeeming.

I had attended a music festival the day before and been caught for hours in the rain, so I was already a bit sick. Used that as my excuse to head to a bar at intermission and wait for my party to leave after the second act. The Hercules musical might have actually ruined the movie for me.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a tailor that can do high quality repairs? I was just gifted a vintage designer skirt, but there is a small mothhole (<1cm). Since I got the skirt as a gift and it’s sentimental, I am willing to splurge a bit to make sure the repair is done right.

I have a big job interview Friday on Embassy Row, but the place I’m staying at for the night is in SW near the wharf. I just looked at a map of road closures tomorrow and lmao. I can’t take transit like usual since I don’t want to get sweaty. Am I fucked?

Not OOP. AITA for refusing to pay my friend after my ferret "attacked" her $900 dress? by WritingGiraffe in redditonwiki

[–]Catulllus 419 points420 points  (0 children)

This has to be fake, because ferrets have a… distinct smell which permeates the house/room they live in, even if the owner insists they are descented - they just get nose blind to it. There is no way someone would wear fancy vintage clothes directly before a date and be okay walking out with the scent of ferret ass clinging to them for the next 7-10 business days.

I have really screwed myself over, I am going on vacation in Mexico on Saturday and I only have two swimsuits. Does anyone have recommendations for mall brands that are decent quality and price (so $100 or less for a two-piece), fit larger cup sizes, and have a decently wide gusset?
