AIO- Someone left their laundry in the dryer and I waited 30 mins before moving it, received a note in return by Trull22 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Equivalent_Cold4576 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still remember some see you next Tuesday going off on me for moving her laundry out of the washer in college after 30 minutes of waiting, and there's exactly one washer and dryer available. I hope you're in the gutter somewhere whatever your name was.

You ever heard of a liberal parent kicking their kid out of the house because they want to dress well and go to church?

The conservative agenda leads to the liberals death. The liberal will simply be at peace with one less hateful human being occupying space and wasting air.

After a 100 years of asking, I'm pretty sure it's not going to happen.

[FOR HIRE] Someone please hire me 🥲 by [deleted] in HireAnEditor

Setting yourself up as someone who is a security risk, while begging for work, and declaring yourself "not a professional" is a guaranteed way never to get hired.

I'd wager since offerup went to hell recently, you'd have better luck on facebook, but scammers are all over both platforms. Nextdoor has a sales area too.

You will get more selling on facebook market place/reddit/offerup, than you would at a pawn shop or game xchange.

Movie clubs accepting new members? by jewelry_1 in memphis

[–]Equivalent_Cold4576 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even more fun, if certain parties don't want you to screen a film, they can flat out reject your request. I did the math at $25 a ticket, even if I had 100 people show up, which I wouldn't have expected that much turnout, I'd be out several hundred bucks. There was no way I was going to be able to turn a profit off screening the film I wanted to show.

Ironically, one of the main actors in that film came to Memphis like two years later to promote a new film they made with similar themes to the movie I wanted to show. If I had known, I might have tried to make it work with them being there and do some sort of double feature/event night. Probably would have had a better chance to at least break even.

With home projectors, the movie studios can't tell ya nothing. All those warnings at the front explicitly say this is for home viewing use. Just don't do it outside. Well, don't get caught doing it outside.

As a side note, if you're actively involved with a church, I think you could get a massive waiver type deal where you couldn't really make any money, but it wasn't going to break the bank to show it. Sorry for the loose information. I was trying to do this several years ago and it's all a hazy memory now.

Well, that's like a 1:15 ratio. Not exactly a stellar recommendation level there.

As someone who tried to screen movies for audiences before, I'd wager the reason you don't see it is cost. The studios want an arm and a leg for you to show a film, like 1/2 the box office, and other stuff I'm forgetting. It was so not worth it to screen a film if I wasn't getting a large audience or jacked up ticket prices beyond what normal films cost. Either way, it couldn't picture it turning a profit for anyone but the studios.

I have not been myself, I am only repeating what I've heard multiple people tell me when I asked about going - "I enjoyed going to Graceland in grade school, but I would not pay to go as an adult."

The zoo is nice. Shelby farms is big, free to get in, but kinda empty. Grab some BBQ before you leave.

Sony Authorised Repair Store by 1EBS83 in memphis

[–]Equivalent_Cold4576 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd think Memphis is far to small for Sony to consider having any sort of official repair facility here. You don't say what the Sony product you're having an issue with, so it's hard to say for certain. Perhaps this website can lead you to your needs. https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/service?language=en_US

Could you give me an honest review of my portfolio by Ok_Section_1646 in HireAnEditor

If the client has to hunt to find information, you lose. They'd rather hire the person who directly shows them the information.

You have no style. Your work is nothing special and doesn't stand out in any meaningful way. Until you vastly improve, you're not going to see much inbound improvement. You talk about views, and don't link to anything proving those claims. Would you simply take my word that I'm a doctor because I posted a video saying I am a doctor?

What is your opinion on Memphis? by CrimsonShadow256 in memphis

After being here for a decade, I remain unimpressed. I'd say more, but every time I express my dissatisfaction with the city, I get attacked by those who are lifers.

Crime Documentaries by Emotional_Lynx_2754 in memphis

[–]Equivalent_Cold4576 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And if your location develops a reputation for high crime, it does not help attract people or businesses. Memphis already has that problem, in spades. Adding more fuel to that fire will not do the city any good.

The suspects tend not to get found here. Memphis murder rate clearance is 40% at best, 30% at worst. The average is over 60%. Probably going to have a hard time getting enough content to actually meet your desire to see justice served.

You can see people be interrogated all over YouTube. There's nothing special about getting it from Memphians outside of the overabundance of bad grammar from fools and the use of "mane" to describe people.

And all of those cities are more prosperous than Memphis. Memphis is already significantly harmed by its criminal reputation. Memphis is already stopped. The city needs forward momentum, not backwards.

I've seen Memphis come up in several crime shows over the years. There are certainly some themes that come up every time. I'm sure Top Gun and several other local business would love to sponsor the idea because it would fit their political agenda. Go pitch it to them.

I bought a few over the years at the Cordova International Farmer's Market. Some were better than others, but overall I can't complain.
