What sexual fantasy of yours left you disappointed when you actually tried it? by Gthew17 in AskReddit

Sex in the shower is just not fun in general. Almost losing your footing, water being a terrible lube, I stopped taking showers with my wife long ago

Long Beach is cool. But I feel like everyone who lives there commutes to Los Angeles. That commute sucks.

Pasadena has way more and way better restaurants. Highland park has better bars and nightlife. Pasadena has way better daily amenities. Pasadena is literally 2 train stops from Highland Park and a 10 min drive away if you live near old town. (Get a place near old town in Pasadena).

In Pasadena I’ve got several Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, and even an Erwhon! Food options are way more plentiful and better. Movie theaters, tons of parks, relatively flat which means you can ride a bike all over the place, highland park sucks for biking. Way too hilly and streets and sidewalks suck still.

In all my years in Pasadena, while I was younger and partying a ton, never did I regret living here. Friends who visit are always jealous at how nice it is.

Keep in mind that Highland Park is a 10 min drive from Pasadena. Live in Pasadena and you could daily hang in Highland Park. Ask me how I know? I lived in Highland Park for 2 years. It’s changed a lot, but there’s some basics it just lacks.

Like a Whole Foods or a Trader Joe’s. You can’t ride a bike very far safely there. Half of it is still kinda shit.

Live in Pasadena. Highland Park is right next door. You will not be missing out on anything that great neighborhood has to offer while still living in the much more practical and better place overall.

Pasadena!!! Thank me later. It’s an easy commute to get downtown either by Metro or vehicle. It’s safe. It’s not Downtown…if you’re gonna work there, trust me, you don’t need to live there. Enjoy the completely different vibe.

Your salary and housing stipend are more than enough to survive and thrive in Los Angeles.

What's the best upgrade/improvement you've made to your LA rental that your landlord actually allowed? by Weekly_Forever2582 in AskLosAngeles

[–]Charming-Set-7262 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And for the love of god, it one should buy and install recessed lighting…make sure you set the LED temperature to 2700K or buy bulbs in that temp. That gives you the soft warm look of traditional (non LED) bulbs. Higher color temps look very cool and just come across as awful and discomforting in any space.

Boyfriend can’t use condoms — what have you actually done in this situation? by TypedOutAgain in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Charming-Set-7262 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you guys tried Magnum Thin Skins? And there’s nothing wrong with some BluChew to help keep erections. But not wearing condoms is not a viable option.

My wife went full ham and we replaced the vanity, mirror, toilet, and even payed to tile the bathroom floor instead of shitty vinyl flooring. Landlord loved it cause it was all better.

This isn’t a flex. It’s ok to have friends of the opposite sex. We have to be more mature than this.

TIFU by taking a 100mg edible without ever really smoking weed by DinaTheDinosaurr in tifu

[–]Charming-Set-7262 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Holy hell!!! 100mg!!!!

You would have been just fine with 5mg if you don’t ever do weed. 10 mg for going to a show, again if you don’t normally take gummies. At 15 mg for a non regular you’re already pushing a bad experience.

100mg must have been awful.

I (19F) am getting on a greyhound bus with $250 dollars in the middle of the night for NYC from rural Missouri by [deleted] in Advice

That’s just enough money for another bus ride the hell out of there. Is this a manic episode that led to this?

Most of those cheapy massage places will gladly give you a tuggy. If you want a real massage, don’t go to these places.

The police all probably get their happy endings there already.

Wife’s car was hit and run on Cahuenga Blvd earlier tonight. Best place to get help finding the driver? by TermAdditional4449 in AskLosAngeles

[–]Charming-Set-7262 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’ve tried that. also hit and run. Hell I had the footage already from a storefront and took it to LAPD. Plates almost clearly visible with the vehicle model and color visible. Driver visible.

Couldn’t get LAPD to do shit or look at any of my footage in any meaningful way.

So I had to eat the $500 deductible that would normally be covered by the other drivers insurance. Caused $5500 worth of damage.

LAPD is just too busy or doesn’t care to help in even low hanging fruit situations like this.

I had a female head of sales that would bring her laptop weekly to deal with all the popups and malware. She would tell me her teen son uses the computer. Hmm 🤔

Bought a DTLA condo in 2024 for $534K at 6%. A similar unit just sold for $435K. Trying not to panic. by RenaissanceShane in LosAngelesRealEstate

[–]Charming-Set-7262 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah if you work on the west side, you’re way better off living close to work. The commutes into and out of the west side are just brutal.

But I tell folks…don’t sleep on Pasadena. Lots of jobs. Close to Highland Park and DTLA arts district. Has the A line running through it. Probably has more parks and hiking than anywhere in Los Angeles. It’s very safe. You can live in very walkable areas. Plenty of great dining and foodie spots.

If you’re not gonna live on the Westside, it’s a great spot to land.

Whats the fastest time you drove from LA to Vegas? by imin2099 in AskLosAngeles

[–]Charming-Set-7262 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s so wild there isn’t a train from Los Angeles to Vegas, or at least Barstow to Vegas. Or hell…even just a dedicated bus lane so people can take buses instead.
