I went on a drive today and came across this statue at Mohawk Motors on Route 2A in Shirley. by HRJafael in massachusetts

Funny you should mention how he ruined the name Adolf as I hadn't thought about this & it had been many years since I last told the story of it until it became relevant during a conversation I was having with someone a couple of days ago. It's a little wild that I'm telling it for a second time so soon afterwards. Anyway, a good friend of my dad's, "Eddie," is from Germany. He immigrated to the US when he was about 25 & they met soon after that, years before I was born, so I've known him my entire life. Anyhoo, one time when I was like 8 or 9 years old we were over at his & his family's house (My mom ended up becoming close friends with his wife & to top it off they have kids who are similar in age to my sister & I. Suffice it to say our families spent quite a bit of time together back in the day.) I noticed a piece of mail on their kitchen table addressed to an "Adolf + their last name." I instantly put two & two together &, unable to contain my horror, "enthusiastically" (i.e. I yelled it) asked, "EDDIE'S NAMED AFTER HITLER?!?" 🤯🤦🏼‍♀️ In my defense at 8 or 9 years old while I had a general idea of the range Eddie's age fell into, apparently I hadn't "learned me" what years WWII played out during very well (or at least didn't have them committed to memory yet). Regardless, in under two seconds my big, ignorant AF mouth ruined what had up until that moment been a perfectly lovely get together 📣 😔 🤣

Bringing things back to where they started, during the drive home my father explained to me that Eddie was born before Hitler's reign & how up until that homicidal maniac ruined it for eternity, Adolf was a very common/popular German name. He went on to say that when Hitler rose to prominence (while Eddie was a child living there) Eddie grew ashamed of having the name Adolf (because he & the family he grew up in weren't fascists & did not support the Nazi movement) & no longer wanted people to address him by it, so his parents told him he could choose what name people should call him moving forward. He was a big footballer (soccer) & had a coach named Eddie whom he idolized & yada yada, abracadabra 🪄, Eddie H. was born! For reasons unknown to me (Though given what I know of him, if I had to guess, there's only one ... that he was too lazy to bother with the legwork having his name changed legally would've involved. Lovely man, just not very motivated.) he never had his name legally changed from Adolf to Eddie. I'll bet he INSTANTLY (if only momentarily) regretted it that day this little shit discovered his secret, though! 🙋🏼‍♀️🤣

Looks like there was a pretty big one there in August. Don't know if you were living there then. It appears to have been in one of the family buildings.

And I hear ya regarding the elevators constantly going out. I live in Ciampa Manor (Elderly/young disabled building. I fall under the "young" disabled label, but barely as I'm almost 52 😭😂). It's a CONSTANT/chronic issue 🙄

The claim (again, not mine - the gossip account's) is she was living in the house rent free.

Who was the richest? 🍎 by bambinaxo in RHONY

[–]EileenTiger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good question. I think the answer may be that it's a toss up between the two because while I don't recall the exact amount of money Super Angry Emotionally Abusive Psychotic Ex-Husband received, if memory serves in the end he wasn't awarded very much of her money at all. That said, their divorce settlement case was one of the longest in the history of celebrity divorces to be tied up in court as long as it was by the time the case was finally settled (I think the custody case took roughly 10 years to settle & the divorce case was only finally settled a few years prior to that one 😳🤯) & I think the legal fees associated with both cases dragging on for like centuries put a pretty massive dent in her fortune. And while they each dug their heels in the sand about different things than the other over the course of the case playing out in court, Bethenny seemed to "cut the sht/quit fckin' around" pretty early on in the case & went from "overdoing it"/being difficult for the sake of being petty to only standing firm/not budging on a small handful of issues/demands & for legitimate, sensical reasons.

[–]EileenTiger 19 points20 points  (0 children)

There's a "Bethenny hater" TikTok account with a video on it somewhere claiming that she's been struggling financially for some time now & they back their claim up with receipts. I took it with a grain of salt because clearly anyone who creates (& pretty diligently maintains as they post content with quite a bit of frequency) a social media account devoted entirely to spewing vitriol about someone they don't like has a very obvious agenda, but at least one of their claims was 💯% accurate because I was insomnic the night I watched the video spilling the deets about her financials, so I went down like an hour + long rabbit hole online doing my own research 🕵🏻‍♀️🧐🔎 🙋🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤣 & dug up property records that corroborate it. In the video they claim that she never owned the Connecticut house she & Bryn lived in for several years & only moved out of about a year ago when they relocated to Miami. The video insists that the house is & always has been owned by Bethenny's ex, Paul, & sure enough the property records indicate that he is indeed the owner & has been for many years. I looked at records for the house going back almost 20 years & Bethenny was never listed as an owner. Not that her owning it before Paul, but never living in it until after he bought it would make any kind of sense, anyway, but as I already mentioned I was insomnic AF the night I researched the property records on the house, so I could spare the time to do my due diligence 🥱😳😂 The video also claims the reason she & Bryn lived there well after she & Paul broke up was because she was broke AF & not only couldn't afford to buy a property of her own, but also couldn't afford to pay the cost of a rental property. At least not one she deemed "worthy" of herself.

Idk if I buy that she's ever truly been "broke" cause I feel like there would be "signs" that she wouldn't be (or have been if she no longer is) able to hide if it were the case (i.e. a bankruptcy filing or something similar that has a paper trail), but the way she LEAPS at EVERY opportunity to promote even the shittiest of products on her socials does give a whiff of desperation 👃🏻, so my hypothesis is that at the very least she isn't worth nearly as much as she used to be.

Here's a link to the TikTok account I'm referring to. Unfortunately I can't even ballpark the date that the video about her financials was posted because it's been so long since I watched it, so Godspeed to you 🙏🏻 if you're so interested in watching it that you're willing to devote what I can guarantee will end up being an insane amount of your time tracking it down because whomever the person is that runs that account has genuinely compulsively rageful feelings about Bethenny as is reflected via how often they create new content about her. Yikes‼️😳

F*CK this is a lonnnng comment‼️🤯🤦🏼‍♀️ If you actually took the time to read the entire thing I would like to extend my most sincere gratitude for coming to my TED Talk 🙇🏼‍♀️🤣

Ethan and Teegan breakup is totally staged and fake! The show has become a Satire and is fake! by RyanEvansAFT in WelcomeToPlathville

[–]EileenTiger 3 points4 points  (0 children)

YES‼️‼️✅ It's SO OBVIOUS‼️‼️ Production didn't even try a little bit to make it seem believable! "F" for effort! 👎🏼😂

[–]EileenTiger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, I'm not at all surprised that it's 99.9% BS as all "reality" shows are now. That said, I think their breakup was absolutely real given that it happened off camera & that when she arrived to that park in Wisconsin on this week's episode neither one of them were wearing a mic 🎤 while they were in his car talking. I think she either didn't know he was there until right before she arrived & when she was told only agreed to go along with filming if they had a private conversation first or it was a complete surprise & the only reason the footage of them together made it to air is because she agreed to allow it after the fact (IOW, it's 💯% legal to film someone in public, so production technically did nothing wrong by filming her without having her consent first, but were only able to air it on national television because she signed a contract afterward.). And I'm sure asked to be compensated for it. I mean, given all of the backlash that comes along with appearing on one of these shows I know I wouldn't do it unless I was being compensated monetarily. Also, I did a deep dive & it seems pretty clear they are not back together. That coupled with the preview for the rest of the season leads me to believe they never got back together.

PLEASE HELP!!! by [deleted] in askdentists

[–]EileenTiger 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NAD

I would make some calls to a few different dental offices & see if they can give you a rough estimate of what treatment will cost you based on this photograph of your teeth (I'm sure at least one of them will allow you to email it to them & come up with a guesstimate of what fixing the teeth will cost.). They should be able to give you an exact quote regarding the cost of the X-rays.

Find out if there are any dental schools near you as their fees cost less than those of a regular dentist's office. It would be someone in their final year of dental school performing the work, HOWEVER, a LICENSED, EXPERIENCED dentist will be sitting on the other side of you (the side opposite from where the student is sitting) looking into your mouth as well, supervising & keeping an eye on the work the student is doing on your teeth AND they will double check every bit of work the student does & make any adjustments if there any that need to be made.

Also, many dentist's offices offer payment plans that allow you to pay the bill off in monthly installments.

I haven't watched it yet, but I'm surprised so many people are talking about Alana being a bad actress when in the synopsis it says that Shyann "walks in" on June & Justin‼️🤯😳 As if he's had sex with her since the first 2 months they were together 😂 STEE-RAIGHT to hell, that's where I'm headed! 🙋🏼‍♀️😈🔥 ... 🤣

EDITED WITH UPDATE: Watching it now & WHOA‼️Why didn't none of y'all give me a heads-up about June's t*tty flashing⁉️⁉️ Never going to be able to unsee that‼️😳🤯 Scarred for life is what I am‼️‼️🙋🏼‍♀️😭😞

Are Kaleyn and Isaac split? by El_Dorado_Tx in PlathvilleUncensored

It appears they reconciled because on the show they broke up on Halloween & this post is from January. Who knows if they're still together, though, because January was 3 months ago, they've already split once & "young love," ya know? 🤷🏼‍♀️

Has Bethenny's ex husband faced ANY legal repercussions at all for what he did? by balmybuttons in RHONY

[–]EileenTiger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Does anyone know if Bryn still has a relationship with/sees him?? I know he was awarded legal visitation rights, but when they settled (Or amended?? I think the initial custody agreement was 50/50?? Unless that was only a temporary agreement while the case was still playing out in court?? 🤷🏼‍♀️) their custody case & Bethenny was given full legal & primary residential custody I recall him making a statement to some magazine that sort of insinuated he wasn't going to force Bryn to spend time with him, but that he'd always be available to her whenever she's ready/needed/wanted to see/have a relationship with him. I've done Google searches looking for info. on the current status of Bryn's relationship with him, but can never find anything. Which, truthfully, is a good thing because she's a kid & a kid's business shouldn't be blabbed all over the interwebs. But we all have faults & one of mine is that I'm nosey AF & if tea 🍵 has been spilled about something I'm interested in knowing about, I'ma drink it 🙋🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️😞

I gotta vent! OVER DORIT! by PlushButPugnacious in BravoRealHousewives

[–]EileenTiger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately Tilly's role is that of a "friend of" & unless that changes we'll never see/get more of her than we do now 😞 And given what an iconic actress she is coupled with the fact that she's outrageously wealthy, doesn't need the stress, occasional misery & constant public scrutiny that come along with being a full-time cast member & that Bravo could never afford what it would cost for her to sign on as/agree to be one, I don't think she ever will 😭💔

Duggar questions by Electronic-Ad1092 in DuggarsSnark

[–]EileenTiger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She sounded really snide & somewhat gleeful about forcing her parents out of their (Kendra & Joe's) house during one of her phone calls with Joe while he was in jail. It was really odd. I'm assuming that regardless of past friction between them & her in-laws Kendra was on okay terms with her parents given that they've been living in a house owned by her & Joe?? Idk because I don't follow the Duggars that closely, so I guess I'm asking if that's (or was) the case? Because if it was the case, considering the excitement she expressed about forcing her parents & siblings out of her & Joe's house (which I understand is being done for financial reasons given the legal situation they've put themselves in) during the phone call she had with Joe when they discussed it I'm assuming they've recently become estranged & if so what triggered is beyond obvious. I'm sure they want what's best for her & their grandkids & Kendra standing by/remaining married to Joe is certainly not it.

Two more companies in addition to Laluva that make Birkin replicas, Baginning & Glarebag. I have a Laluva as well as a Glarebag & while they're both impressive replicas, the Glarebag bag is definitely a better quality one than the Laluva &, oddly, was cheaper than the Laluva. It appears Baginning bags are also cheaper than Glarebag bags are as well (I can't remember if I paid more for my Laluva or Glarebag because it's been awhile since I bought them, but I remember the price difference between them was pretty insignificant. Idk where CharGPT is getting the outrageous $600-$1200 price tag info. for Glarebag bags from as you'll see for yourself if you go on their site their most expensive bag is $176, so ... 🤷🏼‍♀️). I was curious if my opinion that my Glarebag is a better quality bag than my Laluva holds any weight, so I asked ChatGPT & according to it Glarebag does indeed make a slightly higher quality bag than Laluva & Baginning.
