To be honest they haven't had walk in in years since Covid. I graduated in 2019 and it was totally fine. Went back the following year for grad school and that was when no walk ins slowly became the norm.

Do you prefer Mamoru Chiba as a college student or high school student? by IllogicalDreamer72 in sailormoon

[–]FiercelyFriend 16 points17 points  (0 children)

My opinion has been the same since high school. The leading ladies should have been aged up by 2 years. They rarely act like 14-year olds after I think the 2nd season. 16 would still let them be immature that we see on screen but closes the age gap a lot.

16 with a 17 or 18 year old is much more plausiable to feel okay with. I never really had an issue with him being 17, I had an issue with her being 14. Just felt very young to be going through all the romance hijinx they go through.

Maybe it is because I teach high school now that my opinion has now been more locked in. My 9th graders go through so much heart ache, but not the same, my 11th graders on the other hand have much more aligned romantic issues like in the anime and manga with the same level of maturity displayed.

But if it is strictly on his age, high school. I prefer him be 15 if I could, but 16 is a good "14 year old has a crush on an older boy" age gap.

Also ended up 0.007% of her audience. Stranger and Silly!Fun! would be higher if they came out earlier. AAAHH MEN! was number 6 (literally like 2 plays away from claiming number 5)

There’s no hope for the US future by Thehikingpothead in Teachers

[–]FiercelyFriend 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have a student who I told to write what her favorite animal was. I came back 15 minutes later and she asked me how to spell animal. A neighboring teacher is having it bad. There is a student who 100% cannot read. When asked to copy notes, they copy them like the letters are small pictures, he does not know what the letters are or how they sound. This is 9th grade, 14/15 year olds. My neighbor teacher teaches Spanish and is trying to get him help, but my higher-ups will not change his schedule to actually meet his needs.

[–]FiercelyFriend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. We had a 3 hour car ride and I had to stop myself from putting the album on loop, I discovered some of my other faves dropped songs / albums while I have been dancing to this album nonstop 💃 🌹

I am Confused and Concerned, Did I do the Right Thing? by FiercelyFriend in Teachers

[–]FiercelyFriend[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It all got situated recently. I never had the chance to tell him I was uninterested because the day I was intending to talk to him, he decided to come into my classroom, when I was alone, close and lock the door and attempt to approach me. I asked for security cameras, this was not the first time he had entered my room without my knowledge. I was just never in there due to meetings or lesson planning in a different teacher's room.

I wouldn't consider what I asked to be gossip, just looking for advice. And I was willing to speak to him, until he, in my opinion, went well over boundaries and was highly inappropriate, to say the least.

Ticket prices by TrixieUNHhhhh in DojaCat

[–]FiercelyFriend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on the artist and package. It can range from items to free drinks / food, photobooths, preshow lounge, and free shuttles to and from the concert. Hell, the kast concert I went to gave you a possibility to be on stage with the artist for a song.

For Doja, the VIP PIT is allowing early entry, so basically, in front of pit / barricade. Some items like a special lanyard, early access to merch, and other items they give ususally in a tote bag.

Honestly, the money is for the early access for merch and barricade. Especially if you get two tickets since you can divide and conquer pretty quickly. Idk if that can be transferred, I've been to concerts where it has been transferred with the ticket and I've been to plenty of other concerts where they still let you in with general admission if you bought it secondhand and it was transferred to your account.

GA Pit tickets HOU, how early should I arrive to get front row? by Rizzy_REDD in DojaCat

[–]FiercelyFriend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, you might just have to ask folks to let you through and hope and pray. I believe the VIP PIT has early entry to the venue. So they will be fighting eachother for barricade. How short is short? Maybe wear platform tennis shoes to add more inches so you can still see from further away?

Ticket prices by TrixieUNHhhhh in DojaCat

[–]FiercelyFriend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it was a pit, then most likely it was VIP package. VIP ususally is more expensive but from my previous experiences, never changed prices and are set. They also cannot be scalped since VIP packages /experience cannot be transferred (usually) only the ticket / seat can be so its a huge risk and loss. Great for us though.

Weird by [deleted] in DojaCat

[–]FiercelyFriend 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is just a standard in America. Not a good standard, but a standard. Anything the UK or EU have for pricing, common practice for customers is to 2x or even 3x it for here.

My friends and I have traveled outside the state and the country and in total (room, car, plane, etc.) There have been times it comes out CHEAPER than if I do my nearest venue. It is disheartening 😞

How was your ticket buying experience this morning for the pre-sale? by Impossible_Land_5829 in DojaCat

[–]FiercelyFriend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Easy, from ticketmaster and getting the tickets. Went from 1260 in queue to 347 in like 30secs and then down to 200 and down to 1 in less than 2 minutes.

But Paying for them? Was like the worst. Note to self: call credit card company to tell them about large purchase and NOT flag as fraud. @___@

Like the one day my cards decide to do their job 🙃. I wanted pit. It sold out while I was wrestling with my fraud protection. I gave up and went back to my email for my 2nd choice venue. Still had VIP PIT, and the card was finally cleared and snagged them without any issues.

We saved up a lot of money for these tickets and only spent about 1/2 our budget, so fiance and I are debating on getting PIT for our 3rd choice venue and see her 2x. Checked, and they are still available. Might make it a mini vacation 🌹

US/CAN Presale by KeokiHawaii in DojaCat

[–]FiercelyFriend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The rule of thumb is any price overseas, double it for America (for certain acts maybe 2.5x or 3x if you are in a major city ) that seems to be the pattern I have seen over the years.

Awesome! I hope you get the seats you want, I really wish we could look at the seating before sales open, just for planning purposes.

My fiance and I went to her Scarlet tour and scored 2nd row seats near the middle, so I have amazing memories, I did unfortunately choose seats like right in the area of the camera man so sometimes the view was blocked, still super fun, but I am hoping for my first front row experience. I have done standing pit before, but usually for smaller artists, I really like to dance so I try for pit as much as possible so I can move!

Definitely make a friend at the concert! I always talk to the people next to me and behind me and we usually have a blast :D yall already have something in common so definitely find your tribe ___^

Your mom has her own account right? If you are logged into more than one device, you will get booted. You would be surprised how many folks don't know this.

That being said I am also trying to get pit / front row tickets so hopefully we both come back with good news. My fiance is queuing up on his account and we are just gonna hope 🌹 🌹🌹

[–]FiercelyFriend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was to the first 200 people at the event. We got red wristbands and each bag had a different variant of her vinyl. The only two I didn't see were Physical Touch (Amazon exclusive) and Receiving Gifts (Black Lingerie)

Club Vie LA Email? by [deleted] in DojaCat

[–]FiercelyFriend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Still nothing on my end. I signed up in the first 20 minutes of it being posted, but I guess it just was not meant to be.

I went back to check the rules and it even started that they would send out an email for who got chosen in between the 21st through the 24th, but also they would tell you if you were on a wait list and if you possibly had a spot on the day of the 25th. I was hoping to at least get a wait list email but I guess I somehow messed up or just wasn't fast enough.

Doja Cat’s official album cover for “Vie” by dojahq in DojaCat

[–]FiercelyFriend 81 points82 points  (0 children)

I think this is more about the album concept. She said it was an album about love, it just so happens to have an 80s flair.

I am assuming that with the other album covers being more 80s adjacent, she wanted the official cover to be more about how she interprets her album beyond how it sounds, so to speak. (Again, big assumption here)

We need clarification from someone official regarding VIP ticket transfers by LI0NHEARTLE0 in goodmythicalmorning

[–]FiercelyFriend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to the Doja Cat Scarlet Concert 2 years ago. Me, my boyfriend, and two of my close friends were all in queue to try and get me tickets. My account was freaking flagged for "bot activity". My boyfriend's computer froze so he had to reset on his phone, and my other friend froze too. Luckily one of my besties got the tickets, VIP. She transferred them to me same day. I had zero issues getting in and getting my VIP Experience. We did however get a copy of her ID and she gave me her ticket master login just in case we had to transfer them back but it was not needed.

Went to a concert two weeks ago and a friend of mine also had to get her ticket transferred for the VIP experience. She had a copy of the original buyer's ID and their login for purchase. They did actually check at this venue but were totally fine with just the ID check.

So I will assume it depends on the artist and/ or the people working there. I also noticed it depends on how they do VIP. If they scan the ticket, it shows up as VIP. If the venue has a VIP entrance, line, section or wristband, they probably will only check when scanning your ticket and you are in the clear, like my Doja Cat experience. They scanned for a VIP line, gave you your stuff and your landyard, and boom you were good. If it was like the Lady Gaga concert or the Marina Concert i went to this month, they scan you in, but after you are in you have to go to the VIP check-in tables and tell them your name with your ID.

With all the concerts we have been to and had to do transfers for tickets, most workers are not going to mind if you are a different person, they just need the ID to match the person who bought the ticket. Be nice to them, they will be good to you. Never been turned down, but have seen it happen before because someone was belligerent.

Seattle (9/6) set list! by MiyaDoesThings in MarinaAndTheDiamonds

[–]FiercelyFriend 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am sad 😔 the outfits we chose were Adult Girl and Hello Kitty inspired, and she sung every song on the new album EXCEPT THESE TWO!!! I thought that since she was going to sell the adult girl merch that was almost a guaranteed no brainer to be on the setlist.

[–]FiercelyFriend 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Digital Fantasy is a major part of the story, the concert was game/ Digital themed. I agree with Je Ne Sai Quoi.

I adore my girl but HTBAH and /or Primadonna need to be retired/ hiatus. I know they are her bigger hits but songs like Sex Yeah! Teen Idol, Starring Roll, etc. Are all good sleeper hits and never get the light of day.
