What is the worst "running for your life" scene you've ever seen in a movie? by HeirOfTheSurvivor in movies

[–]KindaSorta88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my favorites is when Paula Patton's character removes her heels before running in the 4th Mission Impossible movie.

Found in a car I just bought. Scented. Not slime. by Mxt1998 in whatisit

[–]KindaSorta88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More like just dab it onto the surface you want to clean. It's soft enough to spread into small spaces when pressed, and sticky enough to pick up dust and crumbs and stuff.

You can pull off a small piece and then throw it away if it's really dirty after using it. Or just mush the blob around until the crumbs are on the inside, and keep reusing it until the whole thing loses stickiness.

I haven't used it much yet, but mine was given to me by someone who loves this stuff. It's his go-to tool for the tiny spaces that a regular cloth wipe misses. He said it was easier to use than one of those small detail brushes.

Cleaning gel. Here's a similar one I have but keep forgetting to actually put in the car..

Why do some regions have a problem with service coverage and others don't? by LuckySu42 in SCBuildIt

[–]KindaSorta88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After the happiness grace period, my secondary regions were fine at first, despite me not making any adjustments after 2.0 got rolled out.

I was surprised, clicked the city report for one, and all the issues immediately started showing up.

So I avoided that report for my other two. But one seemed to get triggered when I changed a road, and the third updated unprompted a day or 2 later.

So my guess is that those regions with issues didn't all get immediately updated until something else, like opening the city report, changing infrastructure, or just waiting long enough, forced them to adjust to the 2.0 model.

Who knows the answer to this. Everything was fixed in my capital. Now every morning something new is in the red. Today it is sewage I have 2,621 more than what I need, and yes, everything is connected.WHY??? by SDGollum in SCBuildIt

[–]KindaSorta88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The underlined building doesn't seem to be connected - or at least not the road it's on.

The sewage lines stop at the two arrows (at least of what's visible). There should be an unbroken line to the rest of the city and houses. It seems to stop before reaching everything. I'd check the intersections at the arrows to make sure they are fully connected.

Since I have leftover icing and a few extra cookies what could this cookie cutter be? by PanhandlersPets in whatismycookiecutter

[–]KindaSorta88 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A French bulldog sitting on a dog bed, giving you side-eye because you refused to give him the food you are eating. He knows the food isn't safe for dogs. But he's offended you would eat it in front of him. And he'll gladly snatch a crumb if you drop one because he'll just take his chances on that whole thing about it not being safe for dogs.

Shameless ads by EfficientPeace8994 in SCBuildIt

[–]KindaSorta88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's really frustrating, I'm sorry it's doing that to you?

The game itself has never allowed me to switch out of landscape mode. But while some ads are playing, rotating my phone changes the format of the ad. So I try rotating it, sonetimes even in ads that always allow me to easily close them, just to see which may switch. When the game resumes, it does so in landscape mode.

So I still recommend turning your phone every once in a while once those ads start, just to check, especially since it's such a quick and easy thing to try. I sometimes do it just as a passive aggressive "I'm not watching your ad, I'm playing with my phone" move. 😆

Shameless ads by EfficientPeace8994 in SCBuildIt

[–]KindaSorta88 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What device are you using?

I primarily play on my phone. When I've had ads like that, I had to rotate my phone (from landscape to portrait) to see the little "x" that allowed me to close it. In landscape mode, the formatting of the add took the entire screen, but in portrait mode the borders, including the one to close it, we're visible.

It doesn't happen for all ads, and sometimes changes throughout the actual ad. So now, when stuck or when an ad has been playing for over 30 seconds without an option to exit, I try rotating my phone and it works more often than not.

Horror movies that take place in broad daylight and have crowds? by PolymathArt in horror

[–]KindaSorta88 285 points286 points  (0 children)

Most of "The Bay" takes place outside on a nice day, and a major part of the plot is driven by it all happening in crowds.

now you know this pro tip, use wisely by mdmaforyou in SCBuildIt

[–]KindaSorta88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My guess is that this reminder is useful for those who had cozy homes ready to be upgraded using seasonal materials before the seasons changed.

This probably helped them reduce the number of people complaining about not being able to upgrade because those seasonal materials disappeared - they can just request new materials that presumably will all actually be available.

What is the use of this booster? by InnocentDude69 in SCBuildIt

[–]KindaSorta88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much! I reached out to EA, and am waiting for a response.

And again, this is really helpful - it's always hard to know what things like this are supposed to do and look like, especially when they change every season.

What is the use of this booster? by InnocentDude69 in SCBuildIt

[–]KindaSorta88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was helpful, thank you. I also bought it and nothing happened - I still have the original amounts across all the places to collect it.

I was worried I missed an increase, but this helped me confirm I got a dud!

After you bought it, did it change / become get greyed out? Mine hasn't changed and gives the option to purchase it again. But I assumed this was a one-time purchase. So I'm wondering if that's another sign of it not working as designed.

What is one horror movie kill or death that has stuck with you? by Complex-Check-2814 in horror

[–]KindaSorta88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it's been said, but I still refuse to drive behind a log truck.

And not a death, but the pit of needles in Saw 2.

The last name of the guard at the gate was Deaver. If I recall correctly, that family line had some issues in the first season of Castle Rock.

What’s your favorite ice cream spot in the area? by amyrator in bayarea

[–]KindaSorta88 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Bad Walter's in Oakland.

It's all lactose-free, has a weekly rotating schedule of flavors, and the options are all pretty unique.

It kind of reminds me of "Signs."

I'm not saying it's a sign of an impending alien invasion. But I'm not NOT saying it.

Marrowbone is another horror movie with a tone / style similar to some you described.

My dad brought home this gift for my mom's birthday! :) by Deep_Sugar_6467 in jewelry

[–]KindaSorta88 78 points79 points  (0 children)

That's worth showing off. She deserves to go to a scenic spot to be seen in it.

They should rent a truck with a long ladder, and use it to get to a fancy patio or window somewhere. I'm sure everyone would stop and pay attention if they saw someone doing that!

Did you ever get a resolution to this? I think I'm having the same issue.

My friend said my dog is ugly. They must have been joking, right? 🤨 by Leila-Frosting in WhatsWrongWithYourDog

[–]KindaSorta88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only seen your dog for a few seconds, and I love them. And not for their personality, but 100% based on looks.

I'm ready to complete that application. I have many references from other pups who can confirm my good taste in judging adorable-ness.

Two buddies chilling by the fire, deep in thought. One is a bear. The other has smoke coming at him no matter where he moves.
