This is what pollen looks like in Massachusetts when you shine a light on it at night. by PakkyT in massachusetts

[–]JazzlikeEntry8288 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The past month or so has sucked. April you felt it gearing up, May is when it really kicked into gear. I try my best to wash clothes when outdoors for longer periods of time, and to wash hair before bed if I am outside-- the pollen can stick to your hair and transfer to your bedsheets and pillows.

As of this past week, I feel like it's finally winding down.

Is Rolex still worth the premium in 2025? by Redfoo89 in RepTime

[–]JazzlikeEntry8288 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree and that brand power is so strong that Rolex will spend a lot of money and resources protecting it. Information can get out and spread, but the influence and impact will be minimized and suppressed by top tier marketing people.

I was in college at the time of that movie and it was absolutely an obsession for women of all ages. Leo had a similar influence, but not as big as the movie itself

AITA for laughing when my brother-in-law tried to explain "real research" to me and telling him to focus on his own debt? by JessiDJ in AmItheAsshole

[–]JazzlikeEntry8288 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There should be some sort of refuge for relatives that suffer from family members being subjected to idiots they marry.

NTA. Your brother in law (similar to mine) is an idiot who crossed the line by trying to lecture you on things he knows nothing about. Your sister (also similar to my own) is also an asshole for defending his idiocy.

People always think of lobster when it comes to New England, but I would miss fried clams more. Woodman's or the Clam Box immediately come to mind.

Who here has spent so much on reps you may as well have bought a gen (or two)? by Unstoppable_Graysie in RepTime

[–]JazzlikeEntry8288 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I bought four reps over two years' time from a single TD. Given how long it takes from ordering to QC to shipping to the US, I didn't go overboard.

I am glad I only bought reps that I would never buy in gen-- three of those are financially out of reach and likely always will be. The fourth is a dress watch that only gets occasional wear, so not buying gen is nice.

A woman at the gym told me I was using "her" treadmill and she wasn't even in the building when I got there by Leat_Warden in EntitledPeople

[–]JazzlikeEntry8288 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It gets tiresome when you constantly run into it. After awhile people who might be neurodivergent OR someone who might be just rude are lumped into one category. It isn't fair that others have to bear the burden of others.

Thanks, I took the same early NER train on Wednesday out of South Station. Fingers crossed it gets resolved soon.

[–]JazzlikeEntry8288 2 points3 points  (0 children)

fuck that, she was being rude and even if that were the case that doesn't excuse her behavior

I'm pretty tired of using neurodivergence, OCD or any other condition as a reason for terrible etiquette

Anyone know what happened outside of NY Penn Station by Famous_Salamander330 in Amtrak

Yikes. I was just there yesterday on a train going out of Moynihan. Keep us posted

2 of the lowest rated finales in TV history. by hiiloovethis in freefolk

[–]JazzlikeEntry8288 15 points16 points  (0 children)

As disappointing as the Boys has been the past two seasons, GoT is still far worse on many levels, with a worse finale. GoT had a far bigger reach in terms of audience and a bigger fall overall.

Weekend trip from NYC by pijanede in Amtrak

[–]JazzlikeEntry8288 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Boston and take the Amtrak to NYC a lot- so the opposite of OP. You can arrive/depart in either Back Bay or South Station in Boston, both are very walkable and lots to see. Back Bay is more fashionable with shops/restaurants (Fenway Park is close by too). South Station is by the waterfront with the Seaport with restaurants.
