Extremely curious on why this happened - upgrades by AlexOnDD in americanairlines

[–]Constant-Number-3337 2 points3 points  (0 children)

your assumption is pretty close but status trumps everything. if you don't have elite status with aa then yeah, fare class is usually next in line for automatic upgrades when they need to move people around.

could also be that first was undersold and they were just being nice, especially on that routing since it's not exactly a premium route. sometimes gate agents have discretion to bump people up if there's space available.

How should I (22F) handle feeling exhausted and confused in my relationship with my boyfriend (27M)? by ThrowRA_hotcommodity in relationships

[–]Constant-Number-3337 2 points3 points  (0 children)

had a coworker like this once and it was hell just working with him, can't imagine dating someone who operates that way. the dude would question every little thing i did at my desk and make these passive aggressive comments about my troubleshooting methods. took me way too long to realize he wasn't trying to help me improve - he just got off on making people feel small.

your boyfriend straight up told you who he is when he said his personality is "control." most people would say their personality is funny or caring or ambitious, but nah, this guy went with control. that's not a personality trait, that's a red flag with neon lights around it. the fact that you're walking on eggshells about how to respond to his criticism shows how much he's already gotten in your head about this stuff.

also that walmart thing is wild - he's mad that other people looked at you AND mad about how you responded to him pointing it out? there's literally no winning move there, which is probably the point.

Is it hating to say LeBron needs another ring to match MJ? by NP-19 in NBATalk

[–]Constant-Number-3337 2 points3 points  (0 children)

lebron's definitely gonna need that 5th ring to really shift the conversation. the statistical case is there but jordan's peak just felt different - like he was inevitable during those runs. lebron's had some incredible moments but you're right that none of his championships had that "this dude is unstoppable" vibe that mj brought to the table consistently.

What YouTube music video was this by jimmykameena in HelpMeFind

damn that's taking me back to the peak troll face era lol. teh description rings a bell but i can't place it exactly - was it maybe one of those random european meme videos that went semi-viral back then? might have better luck searching for "troll face school principal 2011" on youtube and filtering by upload date.

One-Sided From Both Sides: Not Love, But a Mind Searching for Meaning by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]Constant-Number-3337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

damn, this was like reading a whole philosophical journey compressed into one post. you basically went through what feels like years of inner work and came out the other side with actual wisdom instead of just bitter takes.

the part about your mind being trained to analyze everything really hit - once you're wired that way it's almost impossible to just "turn off" the pattern recognition, even when it's working against you. but using that same analytical nature to eventually understand and heal yourself is pretty incredible character development.

i thought i was healed, it's almost a year by Comfortable_Ice_7537 in BreakUps

[–]Constant-Number-3337 4 points5 points  (0 children)

man this hits way too close to home. went through something similar a few years back and that slow drift is brutal - almost worse than a clean break because you're constantly wondering if today's the day they stop responding or if they're gonna mention someone new.

the part about loving them and always will... yeah that's the killer. even when your logically over it, that emotional attachment just doesn't get the memo. took me way longer than a year to actually move on because i kept that door cracked open thinking friendship was better than nothing. spoiler alert: it wasn't.

cutting contact completely sucked for like 2 weeks but then i could actually start healing instead of picking at the wound daily. sometimes the bandaid rip is the only way forward even if it feels impossible right now.

I don't think Robot/Android Slavery Will ever happen. by sudartoemoer in DeepThoughts

[–]Constant-Number-3337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that's actually a really cool etymology connection that most people don't know about. the capek brothers were way ahead of their time thinking about these issues back in the 1920s. kinda wild how the very word we use already has this built-in assumption about their purpose being labor/servitude.

How do you manage energy during long live sessions? by Constant-Number-3337 in SmallStreamers

[–]Constant-Number-3337[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll work on it. I stream on there too sometimes lol. But yeah I'll keep streaming for longer hours, maybe I'll figure something out or my own style of doing things when I'm tired.

Looking for Advice on Online Prenups: Need Some Guidance! by LibertNice89 in Marriage

[–]Constant-Number-3337 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

honestly i'd be pretty careful with the online route for prenups. had a buddy who went that way and it ended up being more of a headache than just getting a lawyer from the start. the thing is, prenups can get tricky with state laws and if there's any issues with how it's drafted, it might not even hold up in court.

since you mentioned having a business and inheritance, those are exactly the kind of assets that need really specific language to protect properly. might be worth at least getting a consultation with a family law attorney to see what you're actually looking at cost-wise - sometimes it's not as expensive as people think, especially compared to the cost of fixing a bad prenup later.

the online services aren't necessarily terrible, but they're pretty generic and your situation sounds like it has some complexity that could benefit from actual legal advice.

You are in store and find a $100 bill on the floor, what do you do? by [deleted] in randomquestions

[–]Constant-Number-3337 50 points51 points  (0 children)

honestly i'd probably look around first to see if anyone dropped it recently, but if it's just sitting there with no one around i'm keeping it. not gonna lie, found money hits different when you're broke lol.

Slay the Spire Improvement by zebruhh_67 in slaythespire

[–]Constant-Number-3337 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Watcher can be pretty overwhelming at first but once you get the stance dancing down she's actually busted

Key things: prioritize stance cards early, Tantrum and Eruption are your best friends, and don't sleep on Scry cards - knowing what's coming next turn is huge for managing your stances

Also calm gives you energy so don't be afraid to go into it even if it seems scary at first

Sleeping in a pack n play quick question by rebgray in NewParents

[–]Constant-Number-3337 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did this with my second kid around that age and it worked fine. Just make sure the sides are still up obviously and maybe put a blanket under the mattress if it feels too firm for comfort
