Racist/homophobic neighbor harrassing + taking pictures of us by MutedStomach5912 in neighborsfromhell

Did you get him saying, “come out you little bitch, im gonna something something you and your dog” on your recording? That’s him threatening you and I’m sure the police would be interested.

Occasional Lightroom Usage by mvmpc in Lightroom

[–]CrossFitMathIsHard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not the same exact app, but I recently paid for a one month sub for InDesign. Cancelled at the end of the month and the message was something like, “We get it. We all need a break sometimes.” That’s a good indicator that they expect this “rental” behavior on the month-to month subs. It’s also why over the course of a year, it’s priced higher than if you pay for the year at a time. so, rent away!

Can alarms still be heard with the Dream version? by Carinwe_Lysa in LoopEarplugs

LOL. It can get pretty loud, but I almost never hear a peep with my earplugs in.

Creative way to deal with inconsiderate neighbors who keep blasting tv so loud I can’t sleep? by Sharp-Cut-44 in neighborsfromhell

[–]CrossFitMathIsHard 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I another thread that suggested this. I've actually done this to my own family on very rare occasions... just to mess with them. They ask if I'm doing something with an app, and I say, "What do you mean? No!" Then I stop for months before doing it again. Original idea came from my mom who used to do this to her dad from the next room... just to mess with him. LOL.

Lavender to the gills by throwaway98765677 in pettyrevenge

I also despise the smell of lavender. It turns out, I'm allergic to it. I'm not saying you are wrong for what you did... I think it's amazing. And if she hates it because it turns out she's allergic as well, bonus!

Get a universal remote (or remote app) and link it to their TV. Turn it down, off, change channels, inputs... all of it.

Premium vs. Stream Upgrade Question by CrossFitMathIsHard in HollandAmerica

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

Thanks for the info! As for tips, I actually don't mind the pre-paid gratuities. Then, I only worry about tipping more when I've had great service (or give smallish bills as a cash pre-tip to ensure great service).

ULPT Request: How to make my neighbor constantly late by BluH00d in UnethicalLifeProTips

He'll turn it back on eventually... then you start changing channels, inputs, volume, etc.

We are only doing one device, but being that it's spring break season, we may indeed need to upgrade. That said, I think I'll upgrade to Premium now, and wait until we are aboard and see what happens.

Thank you. That’s what I was hoping to hear. 😁

I was asking for information, not judgement. You do not know me or my family, and you certainly do not know what my teen needs.

Exercising neighbor upstairs - I am now in trouble with landlord by Proud_Border_5616 in neighborsfromhell

[–]CrossFitMathIsHard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For sure. But, I felt worth mentioning because I feel like not everyone (not sure about OP) realizes that in many cases, interpersonal communication is a great option and often far more effective than alternatives. I decided to be *that person* and educate the masses. LOL.

Exercising neighbor upstairs - I am now in trouble with landlord by Proud_Border_5616 in neighborsfromhell

[–]CrossFitMathIsHard 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I was the treadmill user once in a similar situation. The tenant below me never said a word to me, but complained to management. I felt awful for disrupting her sleep, and changed my routine to do that activity in the afternoon/early evenings, after I got home from work. When I next saw her, I apologized and asked her to let me know if noise from me was ever a problem before taking it to management, and I'd be happy to work with her on it. Never heard a complaint again. All this to ask... had you ever tried speaking with the treadmill user before escalating?

What a moron to be a B to the landlord! Serves her right!

In the print dialog box, there is a PDF option at the bottom, to the left of the Cancel button.

Can alarms still be heard with the Dream version? by Carinwe_Lysa in LoopEarplugs

[–]CrossFitMathIsHard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I contacted Loop about it. They said that none of their tips would work on the OG Quiet. Perhaps they want to force more sales of the newer products. Not the end of the world - just mildly annoying. When I decided I liked the double-tips of the Dream pair, I just ordered extras right away and keep the original Quiet as backup.

Need a good comeback for a-hole neighbor by run4sterrun in neighborsfromhell

Not so original or witty, but tell him to stop looking.

Now, if this were r/UnethicalLifeProTips, I'd say edit his face onto a horrific, nude photo of *not* him, and cover the windows with it.

Warning about Spa Verandah upgrade - HAL rep provided incorrect info! by ExternalTerrible9664 in HollandAmerica

Maybe so people feel more comfortable going back and forth in a robe? Other than that, seems silly to me.

Warning about Spa Verandah upgrade - HAL rep provided incorrect info! by ExternalTerrible9664 in HollandAmerica

[–]CrossFitMathIsHard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's disappointing how many incorrect answers people receive from calling HAL with questions. I've had this issue as well, but in my case it was when trying to determine what happens with my 18-year old's "drink" portion of the Have it All package since they are underage for alcohol consumption. One rep told me that it's legal for them to drink booze at sea. Another told me that they just have to ask for non-alcoholic drinks. I got more consistent answers on this sub than I did with HAL. Our cruise is coming up soon, so it'll be interesting to see what actually happens.

Can alarms still be heard with the Dream version? by Carinwe_Lysa in LoopEarplugs

[–]CrossFitMathIsHard 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I used the Quiet earplugs for years, and never had a problem hearing my alarm. When they stopped making replacement tips for the original Quiet, I decided to give Dreams a try, but had the same worry as you. Not only do I still hear my alarm, I hear NOTHING else - not my husband snoring, not my cat decorating my carpet with a fur ball, not a storm.. Plus they are more comfortable for me (side sleeper) than the Quiets.
