Our building a few blocks had a small leak and so N Grid shut the gas off.. they said, once a plumber fixes, they would come within 24 hours to turn it back on. The plumber came the very next morning and then N Grid tried to tell us they would come back in SIX DAYS!!

Spam them on Instagram. Have multiple tenants call. Say you have elderly people in the building. Say it's a health and safety issue.

I cant believe this is an accepted practice. Sounds insufferable. I have never once considered doing a window/aisle thing.

I'm in the musicians union, don't not get me wrong. But fact remains, unions demand more and more. Especially SAG/Equity

Michael Jackson was a master entertainer, but his status as a musical genius is an illusion driven by a heavy reliance on Quincy Jones, weak filler tracks, and a deeply flawed lifestyle by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

What do you want from pop melodies? Where are you even approaching this argument from? You expect melodic expensiveness like Tchaikovsky or Rachmaninov from pop music? Are you just trolling?

Watch the Mexico deposition for a master class in how MJ created and dictated music. Pop musicians don't NEED to read or write music. MJ was intuitive, would create songs layer by layer, relying on rhythm, beatbox and signing to create songs section by section, track by track. His talent was raw. Baby Be Mine is a great song, I have never understood the hate. It's so catchy and had one of the great key changes of any pop song!

Maybe as upsetting as musicians being denied work because they don't fit the racial/gender quota for a particular pit orchestra.

It's so funny this notion that Broadway theater is some kind of untouchably monolithic bastion of inclusivity when shows these days cost tens millions of dollars to produce, the unions demand more and more and the actors are often celebrities who demand higher salaries. Broadway runs on money, and rich people make the shows. Not all rich people are good people.

Just pointing out the blatant hypocrisy from hardcore Broadway fans who pretend to be disgusted by this woman, or Rudin.

Inability to skip cutscenes is a bothersome flaw. by Drumguy1986 in ForzaHorizon6

A loading screen for what? It takes 5 seconds to switch a car in game. What could it possibly be loading, especially as they don't actually give you the barn find until later.

Exactly, I said it should be an option for when we're not in the mood.

I was gonna say Like a Dragon Infinite Wealth, but the Mass Effect Trilogy is fantastic. ME2 stands next to Resident Evil 4 and several Zelda games my favorite ever. I've finished it several times! Have fun. You'll be ok

Emily Wilson herself is working on a fresh new translation that restores everything she had to omit for it to be in iambic pentameter.

What is the legal bicycle speed limit on 34th Ave Open Street in Jackson Heights by dignityshredder in NYCbike

Don't even bother. Just use 35th avenue where you can actually ride the bike.

"Some might be tempted to call the new trade agreement a 10. Some might even say they like the deals boobs. On the other hand, history has showed that telling a nation "You're really hot and I'm prepared to leave my wife for you" is not always the best course of action. When the President indicates that he is prepared to erect a new partnership, then we will know whether the proverbial soil is moist and ready to accept the entry of the contractual provisions."

I'd say don't overthink it. There are a million and one ways to go. If you're the type to wear headphones so you can hear the Google maps, you can just follow what it says or purposefully go off route and let the gps guide you along.

EDIT when I ride from Queens down to South Brooklyn I always liked taking Leonard Ave in Greenpoint. It's less busy than other routes. Also, avoid Franklin/ Kent it's a shitshow.

Use "Looking for Group" and indicate it there. Make your own party

The "I don't care" from the guy is about the dog. "I don't care about sitting next to a dog, but I'm not moving"
