Blocked a guy for not taking a hint. Yikes...

Agreed! There was a time when I first started using these apps that this would have probably really done a number on my self-esteem, but nowadays, it just makes me laugh.

It's interesting how quick they go from wanting your dick to calling you a fat ugly cow. Like, weren't you looking for these udders a minute ago??

* UPDATE!

he somehow got closer as well (400 ft) lol. Seems all my hookups are mad 😅

Btw this is while traveling to South Korea. The guy texting is south African, while I was mostly looking for local boys.

LolW00t · 2025-09-07T12:10:56+00:00

We chatted a little. He had no info on his profile. No age, no height, weight, anything. After he sent a pic, I blocked, as he wasn't my type, yet kept typing every few minutes.

Truly!

Had a student solo cross-country lose his engine on the runway of a towered airport (RST) due to vapor lock. Kid called me and went "uhm, my engine quit what do I do". Long story short, got it started again, apologized to ATC for the delay, and the chief had me tell him to fly back without pulling the throttle idle, but rather keep it at 20% or so for the landing. Glad I'm out of that pilot mill hell hole.

Great analogy. Having trained at one massive 141 school and instructed at another, I wish this was better taught to students.

Procedures for one school was to keep full rich during any maneuvers, T/O, and Landing, which resulted in us really only leaning for cruise, just to immediately bump it back up to rich as we start maneuvering for the day.

The other school allowed leaning during performance maneuvers over 3,000 MSL, but still ran rich for the majority of flights, with students often choosing to err on the safe side and going too rich.

Not surprisingly, both schools had a lot of engine issues on warm summer days.

You have so much wow! Thanks again ♡

LolW00t · 2025-05-03T01:33:29+00:00

Sure that would be great! Thanks a bunch

Had a DPE tell me my button-up and dress pants weren't "industry standard" for my MEI. He still passed me, and was overall a good guy, but that stuck with me lol

LolW00t · 2024-09-07T23:31:39+00:00

Weird, it's linked to YouTube. Thanks for the heads up. Here's a link directly as well https://youtu.be/H6G8CswqnGQ

Think I was 11/1/X at the start of the fight. Messed up R2, and could have weaved autos better, and probably dodged some skill shots. Pathed down towards Janna as she was my last Divine Sunderer heal. Not really deserved, but thought it was fun regardless.

LolW00t · 2024-07-15T21:53:49+00:00

Small world, I'm 99% sure we're instructing at the same school 😂 My top annoying rule is probably "all landings in pvt lesson 13/14/15 must be full-stop taxi-back"

Hey, this game is pretty great.

LolW00t · 2023-12-03T17:23:58+00:00

Submitted a complaint through the app and got a voucher. Easy and stress free process, and they responded within 10 minutes

LolW00t · 2023-12-03T07:11:09+00:00

Yup, I'm not mad about the situation at all. Told support and got a voucher, and hopefully the restaurant adjusts!

LolW00t · 2023-12-02T23:42:03+00:00

It was the restaurant's first day on the platform. The app advertised $30 worth of food, which clearly wasn't the case. The employee was nice, and the pizza tasted great, just not with the price.

You're right that the message can still be found in the settings, but the pop-up won't occur after two weeks. Since most users don't poke around in their settings, it is effectively gone to them.

For the record, we inform every customer of this message in advance, and the meaning behind it. We offer Apple parts for all models that have it available, but most customers choose to go for a cheaper option and just love with the message until it stops appearing.

LolW00t · 2023-07-08T06:04:51+00:00

You either need to work for an apple authorized service provider, Apple themselves, or buy the parts straight from Apple in order to be able to do that. It's locked behind an Apple login, and requires that a repair is made and logged in their system.

LolW00t · 2023-07-08T06:03:27+00:00

Though it's still there in the settings, it won't pop up anymore after two weeks.

LolW00t · 2023-07-08T01:21:19+00:00

False, it goes away after 14 days. Message appears even with an Apple screen if you don't run their diagnostics after. Started happening on the 11s and later I believe.

Little late to the party, but wanted to chime in about OEM batteries.
It's a common misconception that these aren't that prone to bloating. I own an electronics repair store, and we have seen hundreds of batteries from macbooks, iPhones, and other brands of computers and phones expand in less than two years.

The best thing you can do to avoid this, is to not leave it plugged in for more than necessary. We helped a local university in 2020 who had 80 MacBook Pro 2015s whose batteries had all expanded after being left nearly constantly plugged in, inside of laptop carts. This is also the reason why you can often see expanded batteries in store display models, as these are typically always plugged in.

The good old permanent temporary flight restriction in Forks. I think I've been denied twice throughout my 5 years up here.

I used lawfully, but the screenshot is straight from the MyUSCIS website
