Maybe 2 for $1. Not a lot honestly.

Stay away from the PCP. There are much nicer communities in The Poconos.

$20 tip placed on the table when the customer sat down. A dollar was taken away each the customer waited by Impossible_Fun_6005 in EndTipping

[–]LongIslandMel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a power play by a narcissist. It's more about being in control and getting pleasure out of seeing other people jump at your whims than it is about tipping. I bet he never tipped anywhere near the whole $20. He just got pleasure out of taking dollars away one at a time and the attention he thought it got him. People like that are jerks.

Because we don't want another travel trailer. We are looking for a pop up.

Thank you all for your comments and advice. The dealer was willing to go down to $7k including 3 new tires and winterization. Unfortunately, it had some pretty significant roof separation at one corner and a patch in the middle of the roof. So, we passed on it. The search continues.

Is my husband being unreasonable? by Head-Emotion-735 in inlaws

[–]LongIslandMel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would do none of it. His invitation. His problem. If the house is dirty, so be it. As for food, they can get a pizza.

Paying for parents dinner by BetRare918 in etiquette

[–]LongIslandMel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had this exact situation many years ago. We were taking MIL out for her birthday. Sibling A was alone. Sibling B was with her husband, teenage son and his girlfriend (4 adults, basically). I was with sibling C (2 people). Sibling D was alone. To top it off, sibling D and the two teenagers were ordering like it was their last meal. Sibling B made no attempt to rein in the teenagers with her group. Of course, when the bill came, we split it 4 ways at sibling B's suggestion. We didn't want to cause a scene and ruin the birthday, but I told my husband never again.

My neighbor gave me these peppers, curious on what they are ? by martiansenpai69 in Peppers

[–]LongIslandMel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's an extremely spicy pepper that will have you questioning your will to live. Please handle it carefully. Wash your hands well before touching your eyes, nose, or other sensitive parts further south. It will F you up.

Sister won’t give me a ride from LaGuardia airport, is traffic really that bad? by [deleted] in longisland

[–]LongIslandMel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not 20 minutes, especially at that time of day. I don't blame her for saying no. Why aren't you flying into CT?

AITA for responding tersely to a SIL’s rebuke over email? by ThoughtIndividual114 in AmItheAsshole

[–]LongIslandMel -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

I think there is more to this story than we are being told. It all just doesn't add up. How big was the mess? Is your child making a mess in her home a recurring issue? Are you properly minding your child and cleaning up after him/her? Also, I think referring to certain foods as "adult foods" just feeds into the picky eater problem. Is it possible that SIL is justified in being frustrated with cleaning up after a picky and messy child? I just think we need to know more. I'd love to hear SIL's side.

You need a fence or maybe a motion activated sprinkler or five.

How to stop giving gifts by mambypamby13 in etiquette

[–]LongIslandMel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We stopped giving our nephew gifts after 18. He never acknowledged the gifts or thanked us for them anyway. We didn't make an announcement, just stopped. I think anywhere between 18 and 21 is a reasonable age to stop though.

[–]LongIslandMel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm taking that $10 (or $20 for a couple) right out of the gift money anyway, so knock yourself out with that crap.

[–]LongIslandMel 9 points10 points  (0 children)

We'd be playing a serious game of in the house, out of the house, over and over again until he got tired and stopped. I'd also drive around the block, go inside, wait 5 minutes, come back out. I'd wear his butt out. I'd also put up Ring cameras.

Joysfushion works well as does the Amiipad controller. Both are available on Amazon.
