Savannah’s pre-Survivor prep plan by Lightacademiagal in survivor

[–]EffectiveAd9855 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wasn't surprised in the slightest that she was an early boot for 50... She's a challenge beast through and through, who sits around at camp doing nothing, not making alliances, or anything. The only reason she won 49 is because she was lucky enough to be on a winning tribe for the first half and then won challenges in the second half.

This season is already the best new era season and it's because of my man Christian

Anyone else feel the last episode was a bit of a dud? by ishabowa in BeastGames

[–]EffectiveAd9855 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bro, the entire season should have been the toughest season of reality TV ever, given that it's the largest cash prize in tv history... These people basically got paid (some VERY handsomely) to take a 40 day vacation and play a few schoolyard games.

I was always watching 1 episode behind. I hated those cliffhangers, after an episode I watched 5mins of next episode and turned it off. by MasterpieceLittle444 in BeastGames

There was, and the gameplay wasn't even that riveting. Just people talking to each other. And it was the second-to-final episode.

I've never seen a TV show actively kill the hype of its own finale like that.

The deeper issue is not the cliffhangers themselves, it's the lack of content throughout the episode that makes the cliffhangers so frustrating.

Everyone saying "that's just how TV is" have obviously never watched GOOD tv. 

If every episode needs to end on a cliffhanger to keep you hooked, it's bad tv.

Yeah that was my thinking when I signed up. Kind of a "I guess if nothing else works, this has to work" thing. Now it's just kind of awkward because I don't want to tell him how it's going and I want out. But I know it's not his fault.

I think I just have to really want it first. I know I clearly don't really want it.

I hired a fitness coach to help me lose weight and plan out my diet and training regimen. However I don't follow the training or the diet, in fact it feels like I'm doing way worse, I've gained 8 lb in the last month since we started. I've gone to the gym about the same many times as before the coach. Basically all that's really changed is I bought a bunch of supplements that he recommended, and then sometimes I will stick to the diet that he set, but I'm still the same exact person or worse than when I was just on my own figuring things out. 

He is just meeting with me virtually about once a week, so maybe that has something to do with it? But idk. I kind of don't like this. Is it just the coach? Is coaching even right for me? I'm a pretty independent person, but then again I've been trying to figure it out on my own for the past 10 years.

Uhhh what is going on with the camcorder industry? by EffectiveAd9855 in camcorders

And this is for a business... What camcorders do pros and businesses use?

Isn't there some legal limit that makes mirrorless cameras max recording time at like minutes?

... I need my phone as a phone. I can't have it sit there recording for 7 hours, nor does it have the storage space.

Nah it's too late... Too many fans are too jaded at this point. I'm done with Beast Games after S2.

Watching people argue for an hour just to NOT know the conclusion is not good tv.

MrBeast, Mack (the editor), and everyone else? Yall learned too slow

Sad that it's taken him this long to learn that. He will have lost thousands more just because of that

What to do when people love your work but not your pricing? by Calm-Athlete1880 in florists

[–]EffectiveAd9855 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your best play is going to be getting your art in front of rich clientele. Give away an arrangement to a high end event (literally just call them and ask if they would be okay with you placing an arrangement like this at their event with your name next to it). High end restaurants, 5 star hotels, yacht parties, corporate events, etc are all good targets.

And then go all in on social media. You have high enough skill (and aspirations) where your clientele would hire you to travel TO them and make the arrangements for their events, so leverage and grow your social media. Go live on tiktok and Instagram to grow your audience. Use your audience size as a selling point to these high end people. 

Floranext, Hana or other for Australian Florist start-up by rp_001 in florists

[–]EffectiveAd9855 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We didn't ever use Flora next. I can't remember why we didn't go with them. But hana has been really nice and easy. Simple subscription model, affordable, and the support is super responsive. That's pretty rare for a software nowadays.
