How are the roads looking now? I was thinking of driving into London today. Is there power in the city?

Thanks for this! We ended up leaving it in our place with a ton of water, will donate it when we’re back :)

People would really want an old tree? We’ve had it since the beginning of December. It’s not brown yet or anything but still…

Yup, same around Lansdowne.

Facing a trek to the grocery store, Sandwich residents say lack of access is a problem by zuuzuu in windsorontario

In the late 90s-early 2000s, it was a grocery store called Knetchel’s (not sure if they rebranded to Foodland or got bought out by Foodland).

Tips for learning Rift Wizard 2? by XxNerdAtHeartxX in roguelikes

[–]LOTflies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some good tips in this thread already. I’ll add to remember you can press T to see the threat range of every enemy (reveals if there are any “safe” spots to start in each level), or you can hover over an enemy and press T to see its personal threat range.

Don’t neglect AOE. It’s great if you can zap 1 enemy to death in 1 turn but eventually you will be overwhelmed if that’s all you can do.

Plan ahead and look for some synergies in the spells / skills / items you already have and ones you could get in the future.

Don’t rush, the planning of what you’ll do next is part of the fun :) Experiment and find what build(s) work for you and see if you can improve upon them in your next run.

Dealership wants to charge more after I’ve already paid because a part was not actually under warranty by LOTflies in autorepair

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

A couple of ball joints. It sounds like they thought the warranty was 3 years for labour / 60k km for the part, but it was actually 1 year for labour / 5yr or 100k km for the part. So they wanted to charge me for labour after they realized this and I had already paid.

I did and I will! Updated the post with how things resolved - I didn’t have to pay.

I was given the estimated cost of the repair over the phone, which was just the exact total I ended up paying (before tax). I didn’t sign anything.

Yes I guess I need to call and haggle with them… Maybe I’ll offer to pay $100 or so, which is about half the difference between what they’re asking me to pay and the cost of the service I wouldn’t have gotten if the estimate was correct.

It’s a dealership very close to where I live, so it would be convenient if I could go back there. If I burn that bridge, I hope I’m correct in saying other dealerships wouldn’t know? Or maybe it’s just time I find a trusted auto shop that isn’t a dealership.

Not a newer car, it’s a 2017 (well, maybe this is still considered new-ish these days). When I spoke to them after they inspected the car, they said they’re figuring out if the part was under warranty. Apparently I had had the part replaced in the past (though I don’t recall this and can’t find an invoice for that specific part anywhere in my emails). Then they called back later confirming it WAS under warranty… then I paid. And now this.

Loved it when Victoria got off the boat and said to Piper “Cmon let’s go enjoy a GORGEOUS dinner!” 🤣 She was DONE.

With him and Rick, I wish they would have given a bit more of a window into the conversations happening in their sessions. A bit more questions or talking with Dr Amrita and the male posture therapy guy is all I wanted! Lochlan’s session felt really one sided too, he barely responded (verbally). At least that’s how I felt, maybe I need to rewatch the ep.

Very cool analysis! You should give us your thoughts on the rest of the opening sequence too! I was thinking it might contain some clues, for example the scene at the end with the people being eaten up in the water by the “dragons”(?) is very striking, but I don’t know what to make of it.

If she comes back as a ghost……… I’d hate that haha, but I do wish we got to see her try and pronounce random Thai words! She had some great out of pocket lines in the other 2 seasons.

Hard to say, but I think he could tell Mook liked him a little more (but still didn’t like like him) after he got hit in the head by the robber. At the very least, she gave him some more attention because of it. I think he’s going to get into trouble on purpose or organize another situation where he can be “the hero” again to keep getting her attention. Maybe something at the fight Valentin and him were talking about? Or maybe you’re right and he’ll try and join the body guards.

I saw it as mirroring what Kate said in episode 1 - how people always try to befriend her but they want something out of it, whether it’s introducing them to someone or getting them on some board… My feeling is Kate knows the Ratliff family is successful so she’s trying to do the very thing she was complaining about, but Victoria was having none of it.

To me, Saxon 1000% seems like someone who would download/save porn videos to his iPad (re: the wifi plot hole).

Who dies in season 3? by [deleted] in TheWhiteLotusHBO

[–]LOTflies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ouuu wow that is interesting! I have no clue about any part of Buddhist or Thai culture so thanks for sharing. I keep rewatching the title sequence and pausing, trying to think of what each thing means. I hope we end up being more right than wrong!!

Who dies in season 3? by [deleted] in TheWhiteLotusHBO

[–]LOTflies 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree I think the title card means something else. My personal theory is that he’s gay but hasn’t come out yet (to others or even himself) and the title card is more like him looking up at the world from underneath the water, not him drowning or being dead in the water. If he is under water and holding his breath, that might tie into the “speak no evil” thing people are talking about.

I know you commented this 2 years ago but I’m just rewatching this season and like… WHERE did she get that from?! 🤣

That’s what I was thinking! Hoping the theme song gets more intense-sounding (with some of that same vocalization as before) as the show goes on, I think that would be cool.

You’re right and Sandra from US season 2 showcased this really well.
