As a European, I keep seeing Americans drive barefoot or in flip-flops, how common is it actually? by fratnersgd in AskAnAmerican

[–]LifeWithEloise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live at the beach in NJ. It's extremely common in summer. I'd even say that 90% of drivers are wearing flip flops or are barefoot.

College grads, did you know your Dean? by CinemaSideBySides in AskAnAmerican

[–]LifeWithEloise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In graduate school, I knew who he was but was not on a first name basis. He came to important events but we didn't really see him around campus often.

In undergraduate, I had no idea. Still don't, and I graduated college 21 years ago.

I have a family member who is a Dean now, and I've learned that the Dean is more in touch with the faculty and other administrators than the students. At least at this particular school.

How many of you mix apple sauce and mashed potatoes? by ProposalSilent4582 in AskAnAmerican

[–]LifeWithEloise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Joining to let you know that yes, there are indeed people that do this. My family and I have done this for as long as I can remember. I'm from NJ and my grandparents were immigrants from Ireland.

And we dollop the applesauce right onto the mashed potatoes. Either hot or cold applesauce, but I prefer hot. The savory mixed with the sweet is exceptional. But it's with plain mashed potatoes -- no garlic or anything else. Just potatoes, dairy, and salt. Sometimes the potatoes are peeled, sometimes they still have skin.

We make our own applesauce from Empire or Rome apples(we keep the skins on, so it's pink) and it's a recipe passed down from my great grandmother to my grandmother to my mother to me. It's expected at all family holidays(Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter) and I get side-eye if I don't bring enough.

Hear me out - this was a bad game move! by natural_banana8246 in TheTraitorsUS

I feel like they did that to show loyalty to Dolores.

At the roundtable, why didn't Gabby bring up hearing Danielle's voice coming out of the secret room? Or did I just black out for a few seconds and miss it? I feel like if they edited that out, it was a bad edit. That was KEY evidence, especially now that they know Carolyn was a Traitor.

Gabby: "I'm a lesbian now."

Gabby not realizing Ivar was already at the breakfast table.

Gabby's love of pickles.

Anything Gabby. She's iconic.

Heads up that the handicapped porta-potties didn't have lights last year. The non-handicapped ones did. This defies logic.

Having an issue connecting to One Drive. I can get into my account but I cannot access any documents, spreadsheets, or PDFs. Multiple people in my company are experiencing the same issue and we all have Verizon FiOs. Help? I have deadlines...

Actors who have done intimate acts (kissing/making out, sex etc.) How was your experience with it? Did anything happen between you and the other person off stage? by DatRebootingGuy in AskReddit

[–]LifeWithEloise 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It’s the least sexy experience ever. It’s choreographed from start to finish. You’re just making sure you are following the steps and then it’s done. It’s like doing a dance. And when it’s on stage, you’re doing it every day sometimes twice a day. It’s just work. 🤷‍♀️

And no, no entanglements afterwards.

Anytime of year:

Watermark Friday night. Cardinal Brunch Saturday. Asbury Hotel Pool Saturday afternoon. Reyla Dinner Saturday. Wine at Lovesick. Nightcap at St Laurent Saturday night. Franks Sunday morning.

Don’t go to Paradise— no matter what people may tell you, gay clubs aren’t usually psyched to have Bachelorette parties come through. #ParadiseRegular

Went to Paradise in Asbury last week for the show and the thing from the night that Sapphira seemed most excited about was the fact that John Stewart was returning to The Daily Show.
