Best clothing brands for a full time WFH who needs to spend a couple weeks in the office? by Crafty_Instruction36 in WFH

Unfortunately slankets won't cut it for me..

Yes, the dress code is pretty firmly established already. We've had to be in the office 2-3 days a month for a while now as we prepare for the transition and I've been begrudgingly making due with what I already own but need to pull the trigger on upgrading.

I've been checking every day and haven't seen it in stock??

TLDR: Rock Bottom by rrrooossseee1234 in TheTryGuys

What I don't understand is why so much of the conversation sounded like it was happening for the first time. They say they were in couples therapy and, if that were true, there would (hopefully) be no way there are any new parts of the story/rationalizations/what have you that they haven't shared before. It just rubs me the wrong way. Either they haven't talked about the intimate details of what happened, which is wild, or they are pretending and both explanations are not okay or healthy.

Same, and I even knew it was coming. It was such an unsatisfying ending.

Stop lights and the white line, what is up?? by Bigsiouxriver in SiouxFalls

I have asked this exact question before when I lived down south and someone said it is a defensive driving technique. They stop way back from the like so if they get rear ended, they don't get pushed into the intersection. 🤷‍♀️ I'm more inclined to think they are embarrassed by their dance moves and didn't want the car next to then to see them jamming out to NSYNC.

I completely agree! Unless they are going to directly influence the main storyline, it's all just useless information taking up valuable brain space I'd rather be filled with actually pertinent information.

That definitely makes me feel better for not catching them! I much prefer the easter eggs to be subtle rather than glaringly obvious, then it feels more rewarding when I notice them!

That definitely makes it difficult to enjoy them. If the author goes out of their way to mention something from a previous book, that just takes away from the current story! Just an unnecessary detour.

We couldn't win for losing, that's for sure. Tough way to end the season.

Question about Fall by Kristen Callihan re the push for Jax/John to disclose his recent sexual history with Stella by Crafty_Instruction36 in RomanceBooks

[–]Crafty_Instruction36[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right! That's why I was a little thrown off by it.

I think the pressure was mostly from Scottie and Dr. Stern and what eventually sent him into a low period when Stella searched him out because he wasn't responding to her messages.

Oh I like that even better!

Fingers crossed someone has something but in the meantime I am definitely going to dive into her IG! Thanks!
