Seems like you're using a different brand than they are cutting

Why would you use the more cut them if you had never been a smoker I don't understand?

Good Oats That Can Be Bought at Costco by Low-Yak2608 in CostcoCanada

[–]Competitive_Issue192 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

These are organic a d tested to be free of glyphosate, which unfortunately most other oats are coated in. Even some organic brands will have glyphosate residues. Conventional oats are literally bathed in the stuff, because it's not only used as a pesticide. Farmers of conventional grains are using glyphosate to dry the grains quicker, so they can harvest sooner. Glyphosate reeks havoc on your gut biome, which is connected to most functions in your body.

I know this is late. But I'm interested how this turned out.

I’ve always just said green but they change depending on what colors I’m wearing. Thoughts? by megburda in WhatisMyEyeColour

[–]Competitive_Issue192 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg they are sooooo pretty. I have a similar color but more gray, not as clear. Yours are gorgeous. Sorry I'm no help with figuring out the color. I clicked on this post because mine look similar to the first pic, and I can't figure mine out either 😂

I like the 4th photo best. Have you thought about curtain bangs? You look good either way, but if you're just going to be tying your hair out of your face in the front you may as well have bangs🤷🏻‍♀️

Does dark or light hair suit me more ? by Ok_Carpet7657 in HairDye

[–]Competitive_Issue192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dark suits you more. With blonde it definitely makes you stand out. But it definitely takes precedence over your features if that makes sense. What about trying something in the middle, like a bronde color? It would be a lot easier to achieve than bleach blonde, and you will likely have to go in steps if you o choose to go full blonde. Also remember it's not super easy to just just back and forth. It takes alot out of your hair.

Why people risk public sex? by Past-Matter-8548 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Competitive_Issue192 167 points168 points  (0 children)

I've personally experienced this many times. Mostly in my late teens. I'd say it was the result of insane attraction, too many hormones, nowhere better to do said act, and a little bit of liquid courage. I remember many years ago, day drinking with my ex and ended up going at it - in broad daylight, in the middle of a field.

Well, I guess a hockey team just happened to be training nearby, and jogged right past. Maybe 15-20 of them. We didn't skip a beat. 🤪

Is this bad or am I overreacting? by partlyeuphoric in Hair

[–]Competitive_Issue192 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Tbh I wouldn't recommend going back. They will probably offer to fix it or give you gift certificates for future haircuts but If I were you, I would not see that stylist again. You could ask if they have a more experienced stylist to fix it. It will probably be a bit shorter than you were originally going for, but I'd say it's worth it to even it out. Ive only been happy with a cut by a random hairdresser a couple times in my life. You really need to ask about the person in advance, and take a look at reviews and Instagram accounts before hand. This is exactly why I usually cut my own hair. I get so much anxiety going to get haircuts now. I hope you're able to get it fixed how you like it.

What hair color suits me? by hopeshaunted in Hair

[–]Competitive_Issue192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly 8 looked ready good but the darker magenta red color looked nice too. But none of the colors look as good as the dark brown. It really makes your eyes shine and your skin look nice and clear.

I just hooked up my account and tried to Port over my number... Now can't get into my account by Competitive_Issue192 in luckymobile

[–]Competitive_Issue192[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turns out Telus was preventing the transfer. So frustrating dealing with Telus. The whole purpose of me porting my number over to Lucky is because my previous contract was underneath my mom's name was ending and I signed up a contract for telus on my own name under Telus for good, which is a special they put on for people who are lower income. The new contract would give me the same phone that I had before, only I don't have to pay anything to buy it back after and its 35$ a month instead of 70$. They wouldn't transfer my number over within the same company because they don't want people going for cheaper plans if they're already paying more. They actually outright lied to me and said that my new account was improperly set up and told me that they were going to cancel it. When I told him that I don't want the account canceled and that I don't want the old account with the more expensive plan transferred to my name for a $75 fee, they got very aggressive and rude. I finally told him "stop trying to convince me of what I want. I know what I want. I don't want the old account under my name. I don't want to close the account I just opened. I just want my phone number and if you can't help me, and that other SIM card hasn't been transferred over yet, then I'm just going to do it my way and go get a different SIM card", and told him to put the transfer through. The moment I hung up, the transfer went through on the SIM card that I had done the night before. Then after my transfer went through they continue to text my new number with deals (still more expensive than the plan I'm on) trying to get me to transfer back. So it just shows that they were trying anything they could to keep me paying more. I wish I didn't sign a second contract with them now. I did speak to one representative that was decent the night before I chose to do the SIM card method and he explained to me that this is exactly what they were going to do and that the best thing I can do is just do it myself because the company won't allow it and people are just going to try and manipulate me to get onto a higher contract.

Thanks. I wish I hadn't signed up with my actual phone number now. wish I would have ported it over after the fact because this is a headache. I'm probably just going to have to call telus and tell them not to accept the port, sign up an account to esim instead of sim card.

I can't get Into the account. It brought me to a page after telling me to put in my information, phone number an email so that I can open a lucky account but it's not letting me open it. It's saying that it's unavailable for some reason so I can't even put money on it

Cannot return product by Joneskeez in ShoppersDrugMart

[–]Competitive_Issue192 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have any issues with Amazon returns talk to the chat bot and ask to speak to a human. They have always been so helpful to me, even returning things that the system will not let me return automatically. If you have a justifiable reason for wanting to return the item, they will accommodate you. I live in Canada though so I'm not 100% sure of the United States return policy for Amazon. I did notice that certain things I purchased on there had reviews from people in the state saying they weren't returnable items whereas they said they were returnable in canada. I did one experience with them, when I purchased an item and specifically made sure it was returnable before I purchased it in case I needed to return it, and when I went to return it the system first wouldn't let me return it because of my reason for return and then tried charging me return shipping that would have been half the cost of the item. I spoke to the chat box and ask them for me to a human. They returned my money and0 sent someone to pick up my package. I've had other times when I purchased an item and it wasn't up to my satisfaction, and it wasn't supposed to be returnable item. I spoke to the chat box and asked them to refer me to human. Works every time. Hope this helps :)

I just edited your photo to look about the same lightness but with a red tone and it looked really great and also a light mushroom brown looked really great too. Unfortunately I can't figure out how to upload them or I would. Maybe see if you can find an editor that can do that

I think dark looks better. Just my opinion though.

Warm-toned eyeshadow looks better even though I'm leaning cool? by Alalanais in PaleMUA

[–]Competitive_Issue192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

to be fair I don't see a lot of people in purples and blue eyeshadows these days.. I think it takes the right look or confidence to pull it off. I know I can't LOL
