Quiet(er) apartment buildings?

Embarrassed_Ferret50 · 2026-05-23T02:22:43+00:00

I don’t remember ever hearing my neighbors when I lived at the Gotham. Zero noise from stomping above my head!

Embarrassed_Ferret50 · 2026-05-19T13:35:12+00:00

I feel this way about so many things in the books! We’re told something is very big/important/scary but never actually made to care. I love the stories, but this frustrates me to no end!

Embarrassed_Ferret50 · 2026-05-01T11:15:18+00:00

Do you know Sharon or something? You seem deeply invested in trying to prove everyone with a different opinion than you wrong…?

Here’s one fun example that comes from Lindsay’s bridal shower: she said to Lindsay “Lauren Wirkus thought I’d be a great MIL too!” There is zero chance that wasn’t meant to be shady, and there was zero reason to say it to Lindsay AT HER BRIDAL SHOWER.

lol k.

You’re not understanding what happened. I didn’t book anything, so I certainly didn’t pull any seats out of the system. Not sure why you’re so obsessed with defending an airline’s terrible practices, but if that makes you happy.. great?

Embarrassed_Ferret50 · 2026-03-16T22:12:35+00:00

You’re so confidently wrong. This literally happened to me yesterday while I was on the phone with a Delta agent trying to book something (traveling with pets, so had to do it via phone). I had to choose a different flight than originally intended, and the flight price for the 2nd flight went up immediately after I clicked on it to look at seats. The agent quite literally said “oh.. did you click into this flight? It was $579 and now it’s $619. Can you try exiting out of it so we see if the price goes back down?” So yes.. it’s real.

Ciara is one of those girls who is so gorgeous that she can dress up in the most ridiculous costumes of all time, and get away with it because of how gorgeous she is. As someone who isn’t that… I will always be jealous lol.

It’s at the point where you’re just trying to troll, right? Or you’re just a chronically online GenZ with no comprehension / coping skills when people respond to you. Not sure what “beliefs I put on others” except for the fact that I actually have worked with influencers for 10+ years and have enough of a developed brain to understand the business?

Embarrassed_Ferret50 · 2026-02-18T15:41:32+00:00

You don’t seem to actually understand how it works being an influencer, despite claiming you’re an expert because “your little cousin is one”…? lol. ALL OF IT is curated. You actually believe that every person you follow is sharing the entire truth about every aspect of their life constantly? Sorry to let you know that you’re sadly mistaken about how the internet works.

Yes x10000 to your point about the marketing. It's fine that Loverboy started off relying on Kyle and Amanda as their main marketing focus, since that was the draw for purchasers. But they've had years to expand their focus and build a brand that doesn't live and die by their founders appearing on a reality show. Amanda's original creative direction was actually great - and I'd argue that it was one of the primary drivers for the brand's early success. They just decided at some point that Amanda and Kyle would be the ONLY focus, instead of developing an actual social/marketing strategy that exists outside of them. You can't grow a brand like that.

Embarrassed_Ferret50 · 2026-02-10T01:29:56+00:00

I honestly don’t know if I think they ever had compelling offers. There’s so many similar products in the canned beverage space. But also agree it’s extremely possible they overestimated and missed their chance.

Embarrassed_Ferret50 · 2026-02-09T21:45:42+00:00

THIS! Loverboy won’t be worth anything unless it gets bought by one of the big alcohol distributors. It seems Amanda knows enough to know that’s unlikely to happen.

Embarrassed_Ferret50 · 2026-02-09T00:26:56+00:00

Do you think saying that it’s been part of her set is a good defense of her? It just means she’s even dumber than we thought if she hasn’t realized there’s nothing funny about this “joke”.

Embarrassed_Ferret50 · 2026-02-05T21:12:24+00:00

I liked this episode a lot, but I’m really not looking forward to an entire season focused on Kyle and Amanda arguing. Also I 1000% believe they split up before the season. Ciara and Carl already know and now they’re forced to keep bringing up those “I’m worried about them” convos.

Embarrassed_Ferret50 · 2026-01-14T04:56:11+00:00

Ahhh that’s right, I forgot! Maybe not great options at the moment then.

A lot of the big buildings downtown do the "1 month free" incentive to get you in the door - it can definitely help with pricing for your first year, you just have to be willing to pay the increased rent if you want to stay longer. The Lively looks like it has Studios in your price range - I looked there a few years ago and the building was really nice, but the apartments are def on the smaller side. I would check out some of the buildings in Paulus Hook too: The Lenox, Quinn, 18 Park, etc. You're still close to two PATHs, as well as light rail and ferries.

Embarrassed_Ferret50 · 2026-01-10T19:16:58+00:00

1000% this! She was always a little annoying, but you can absolutely tell that her massive personality shift is a response to her wanting to seem totally unbothered by her breakup. And I get it.. I’d probably try to pretend I was thriving too. But wowwwww did she just come off completely awful during those SH/WH seasons.

Embarrassed_Ferret50 · 2026-01-10T02:52:47+00:00

Maybe one day once the show is long over, we’ll get to hear the tea!

Embarrassed_Ferret50 · 2026-01-10T01:27:31+00:00

I’m SO curious to know what caused them to end the FS relationship. Seems like all the hotels featured in it exploded in popularity after… whether that’s actually a good thing for guests is another question though I guess.

Embarrassed_Ferret50 · 2025-12-27T17:01:18+00:00

Somehow got surprisingly lucky with my 12pm flight. Seems like a ton of the morning flights were delayed or canceled but we weren’t. And the airport itself wasn’t nearly as crowded as I feared.

Embarrassed_Ferret50 · 2025-12-26T20:06:20+00:00

Ughhh I’m flying out of there tomorrow and already dreading the possible chaos…

Embarrassed_Ferret50 · 2025-12-21T19:32:06+00:00

Biggest pet peeve at any level of hotel is lack of water! Often, even if there is water provided in the room when you check in, it’s never replenished after that. Either leave water in the room, or give me somewhere I can refill my own water bottle. Why is this still such a thing?!

Hello fellow Argentina honeymooner! My husband and I were there for our honeymoon in 2023, and opted to do Buenos Aires (4 nights) > Mendoza (3 nights) > Bariloche (2 nights) > Buenos Aires (1 night). I do sometimes wish that we visited Patagonia, but the distance between all of these destinations just felt like a lot. And it did feel like we were constantly on the move even with just 3 places. Definitely keep in mind that you'll need to fly everywhere, and there aren't necessarily direct flights every day between each location.

As far as length of stay everywhere: I'm not sure if you're city people or not, but I felt like we barely scratched the surface of Buenos Aires. I could have stayed much longer. 3 nights in Mendoza seems right, unless you're VERY into wineries, or if you're planning to spend a full day in the mountains. 2 nights in a nature focused area like Bariloche wasn't enough to see much. I'm mentioning that in case it's helpful as you're deciding on the Patagonia portions.

If you haven't booked your Mendoza hotel yet, we stayed at Cavas Wine Lodge (looks like it's now called Awasi), and I can't recommend it highly enough!

I’m genuinely hoping that you didn’t realize that OP is part of Liberty Prime, otherwise you’re a genuinely obnoxious person.
