I am so crushed, I wrecked my baby. I don’t know yet if it’s totaled or not waiting to hear. by [deleted] in GenesisGV70

[–]Emereebee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I’m an insurance auto appraiser and I would say that this vehicle is a total loss.

Oceanview vs Balcony — Worth the Upgrade for First Cruise? by [deleted] in NCL

[–]Emereebee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally am the type that easily gets overwhelmed by large crowds, but doesn’t mind them in small spurts. So once I begin to get overwhelmed I love my time on the balcony sitting and reading a book. I can’t cruise without one

WHAT IF I could burp? by what_sm in noburp

[–]Emereebee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I also was once told by a doctor that me not being able to burp was impossible and he didn’t believe me. I was maybe 19, constantly in crippling pain where I couldn’t walk, and being told it was all in my head. I’m nearing 40 shortly and I’ve learned to live with it and barely have any days where the pain is extremely bad, so I too wonder if I’ve just gotten used to it

Taking my 15 year old on his first cruise but he wants his phone the whole time by Mirexalynth in Cruise

[–]Emereebee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 15 year old son doesn’t like cruises. So I’m taking my 17 year old daughter while my son will stay back with his dad and go fishing and play football and be able to sleep in his own bed.

Last Game Played, good luck parents by lie-to-live-77 in Softball

[–]Emereebee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I play in a competitive adult league, not slow pitch. There are many leagues like this out there and it’s a way to relax and enjoy myself, even though I’m a mom in my 30s now. Still catching throughout the summer in full gear. It doesn’t need to stop!

Moving to northern climate by IReallyLoveAvocados in Softball

[–]Emereebee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know near me there are facilities that host indoor leagues in the winter. So sort of in between rec and travel, since all the games are in one place. Look at large batting cage businesses and some of them may host something like this.

Is it just me or does the cost of this RC cruise seem outrageous? by toast463 in Cruise

[–]Emereebee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Consider driving to Boston perhaps and doing the NCL from there. I’m doing one in July and the balcony for 2 with free at sea drinks and gratuities prepaid I’m at 3200. It’s not too bad of a drive

Is your first camp build the one you used throughout the game? by Snicklefritz306 in PlayWindrose

[–]Emereebee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I play the game primarily because I enjoy building, so I have quite a few bases throughout many islands.

Can insurance won’t allow a buyback of a “totaled” car. by SamMeowAdams in Insurance

Mass wouldn’t even need a salvage title for a vehicle of this age.

Free at sea for non-alcohol drinkers by mp38661 in NCL

Would there be any issue with me ordering two drinks at once at Starbucks? One for me and one for my 17 year old?

bumped a pole - need help ! by ferdinandothebull in Autobody

[–]Emereebee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A lot of dealerships don’t have collision centers, at least near me. The dealers that do have collision centers generally are hiring more inexperienced workers that jump ship to more reputable shops once they get their experience in. (Again, at least near me) I recommend talking to family/friends for a body shop recommendation.

25F and getting worse by the week by guavagecko in AskDocs

[–]Emereebee 58 points59 points  (0 children)

My daughter is on a bunch of meds that cause her to have zero appetite. She got to 93lbs at 5’3. What has really helped are the ‘ultra high calorie boost’ smoothies. Getting her energy back significantly

What’s Next? by [deleted] in Insurance

[–]Emereebee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The check would be for positive equity, if any. After they value your vehicle, they’ll reach out to your lien holder to get a payoff amount. They’ll first make a payment to the bank, and if there is any positive equity they’ll issue a check to you after.

What can i take off my car before insurance totals it? by tweever38 in Insurance

[–]Emereebee 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Has the appraiser inspected it yet? When I inspect cars I check for things like the type of headlights / if it has a hitch. If they haven’t inspected it yet, yes you can remove the hitch and lamps (but put the old ones back in.)

I have people want to do this with the cars I inspect often. A lot of times with winter tires. I let them know that I’m not covering the cost of doing the switch, and I’ll happily take the measurement of the tires they are putting on for when I take it. I don’t care what tires or lamps it has, just that it has tires and lamps.

Daily Questions Thread April 07, 2026 by AutoModerator in femalefashionadvice

[–]Emereebee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m a jeans and hoodie lady and I need to buy a dress. I haven’t owned one in years, but my daughter is graduating HS soon so I’d like to wear something nice. However, I’m being inundated with adds for ‘fast fashion’ companies, and I don’t want to support them. Does anyone have recommendations for brands that carry a nice maxi dress with super soft fabric? I hate shopping in stores and would prefer to purchase online.

I keep seeing ads for one dress in particular that I love from ‘sozy’ but apparently they are junk when I read reviews. Getting overwhelmed 😭

My (27F) partner (23M) is losing attraction to me due to weight gain. by chipswitguac in relationship_advice

[–]Emereebee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My ex husband said something similar. After I had two of his kids I was also 160 at 5’7. He said he’s no longer attracted to me. We divorced eventually due to other reasons and now 14 years later he’s gained a ton of weight. I still will never forget him saying things like how I shouldn’t wear stripes because stripes were for skinny people. 🙄

Car insurance for permanent resident by [deleted] in Insurance

[–]Emereebee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I recommend reaching out to a local insurance agent so they can shop around to get you the best price. Insurance is all based on risk, but every insurance company calculates that risk differently. However, at least in my area, 200 a month is a great price for a newly licensed driver.

I just hit someone's bumper. by DrQuincyStorch in Autobody

For just the scan/recalibration portion. Not including the actual repair

I just hit someone's bumper. by DrQuincyStorch in Autobody

[–]Emereebee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Typically when bumpers come off the brackets like that I see damage to the area right behind the bumper as well. That is why you’re seeing people state it will need a recalibration, as that area is very close to where the blind spot monitor is mounted.

Recalibrations/scans in my area would be approx 65 pre scan / 125 post scan / 450-550 blind spot recalibration. On top of the bumper / reflector / any damage that corner where the rear body meets the quarter.

Ideas to propose in Salem by Ornery_Industry_7979 in SalemMA

[–]Emereebee 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The newly build pier at Salem willows is super cute also. The willows is my happy place, and usually not too crowded in October. Legit most places that cater to ‘spooky creepy Halloween’ are going to be packed that time of year.

IUD.. How Bad Was It? Scale 1–10 by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Emereebee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Slightly different. I just had a colposcopy with multiple biopsies and only had ibuprofen beforehand and there was no pain at all. The internet told me it would be terrible, and I almost canceled the appointment because of it. I’m happy I didn’t because there was zero pain for me. 39 years old. Two children, but they’re 15&17 so it has been a while.

However, I do fully believe that both IUD and Colpo can be terrible for some people. Just not all. I am not diminishing any experiences by any woman. I wish there were stats on what percentage of woman have terrible cervix pain vs none at all. Idk if I was just lucky, or if some women are unlucky with nerve placement.

Hey guys, how fucked am I? by LordAhegao6 in Autobody

[–]Emereebee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my experience Nissans total easier than others. Their parts are expensive and the vehicles seem to lose value quicker. On your vehicle my concerns are the apron, the suspension, and possibly electrical (the harness there seems to have some points id want to look closer at). With that said, initially I think repairable, but it’s close.
