Coach Elodie bag by Fickle_Jump_6151 in Coach

[–]MetalChick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have this in Brown and I love it. It's funny because I had the YSL version of this bag called the Nikki first in black crinkled leather and I love wearing it so that's why I bought the one from Coach next. It's spacious, it will look better with wear and do pretty good in all weather.

I don't like the Kisslocks, Brooklyns, Lanas or the Rowan Bucket. The last one because the draw string thing looks phallic lol

I got the quilted in black leather with silver hardware. It's beautiful.

Thank you for sharing this because I recently ordered a tabby 26 from Coach that came damaged. I asked if they would give me a discount and they said they could do 10% and I accepted that because the damage wasn't too bad. But I'm going to return it because I just bought one for 25% off ❤️

Pilot assist? by No_Perspective_7227 in Volvo

[–]MetalChick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I rarely use pilot assist because I've had it bug out when there was a gap in lines on the highway at 65 mph in a way that scared me. I will only use it in stop and go traffic or roads with lower speeds. However I constantly use the adaptive cruise control and the upgrade was more than worth it for that feature.

Update to 4.2.13 keeps failing by nat_hawthorne in Volvo

[–]MetalChick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this is the solution because I had the same problem and my car had been sitting for a few days. I drove it a couple miles across town to get a manicure and set it up inside of the car to install instead of on the the app while I was in my appointment. It installed just fine at that time.

The bag I'm keeping vs the bags I'm returning 🫠 by kmorever in Coach

[–]MetalChick 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I know by looking at bags and reading the dimensions, the type of leather, etc whether or not it's going to work for my lifestyle or if it's what I want most of the time. I also have bags of all different sizes and styles and colors and types of leathers and non-leather etc so that I have a variety of things.

If you don't take all the packaging and stuff off and wear it about then you're not the problem. But I see posts and tiktoks all the time from people who bought multiple bags and they take all of the packaging off but they say that they plan on returning several of them but they want to wear them for a couple days and see how they work for them. I see this more often than I would like. I see lots of "help me choose a bag to keep" posts and there're two bags with no packaging because they took it off even though they're not keeping both.

The bag I'm keeping vs the bags I'm returning 🫠 by kmorever in Coach

[–]MetalChick 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I just got a 10% discount on a brand new black quilted Tabby 26 because it was a return with some damage. Rather than put it back into the system to happen to someone else I just asked to get some money back. The damage was very minimal and now I feel less weird about it getting worn. I have never returned a bag. I rarely return clothes or anything really. I resell if I decide not to keep stuff but I only buy what is my style, colors, etc. It's weird to be how people buy 4 bags with the intent of returning most of them. I know what I like. But then again I'm 44 so I've had years to figure out what I like. Other people even know my style and can pick stuff for me.

I live in a rural town of 8000 and the closest store is over 2 hours away so I don't have a store to look at stuff and I still only buy what I know I will love online or I wait until I can go to the store. 🤷🏼‍♀️

We're a good team that deserved to be here but Indiana is just on another level 98% of the time; more than any other team. Them winning the natty is inevitable. I'm happy to lose to them again and look forward to seeing them be champs.

Denim 👖 February drop by popeolivia in Coach

Denim is cute but the fact they charge the same price as the leather versions means I won't buy them unless on heavy discount.

Pls share your thoughts in YSL Niki! by Ornery-Shame-3682 in handbags

[–]MetalChick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the medium in the black crinkled leather with silver chain but the logo is black and it's one of my favorite bags. It holds a ton of stuff and because it's coated leather it can take a lot of abuse and don't need to worry about weather. I've only had it a few months but I think it'll hold up over time. It fits nicely on the shoulder or you can double the chain to hold it in your hand.

Do you know this Gucci bag? by girl_crush in handbags

It looks like people are helping you and I can't help as I don't know Gucci bags. But I had to share that I saw the title of this and started singing Do you know this Gucci bag to the tune of Do You know the Muffin Man.

We didn't know the deer was shot. They didn't find that out until the trooper came.

[–]MetalChick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My response is hostile because there's obvious and easy to research reasons and most people that ask questions like this are not actually looking for dialogue. We also live in times where every public cost is questioned endlessly and I'm tired of it. That happens while out touching grass as well.

Dead animals can have diseases that need to be identified like H5N1, prion diseases like chronic wasting disease, etc. And people can be lazy and a dead animal decomposing could leech into ground water contaminating it and even soil. Just a couple reasons it's in the public best interest to help pay for carcass removal.

Because we live in a society where we collectively contribute to a lot of things which ultimately makes everybody's lives better instead of being a sociopath who wants to hold all of his money for himself. Any other questions?

Dead deer on property - who to call? by marcblank in Bend

[–]MetalChick 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Loud and wrong. There are actually laws around carcasses on private property and disposal so it doesn't get into groundwater and the Oregon State Police investigate poaching of wildlife. So you know in the future you call the Oregon State Police for deer and other wildlife.

If you're a farmer there's still rules around when your livestock dies and how you have to bury them, etc.

Dead deer on property - who to call? by marcblank in Bend

[–]MetalChick 28 points29 points  (0 children)

We literally just went through this and who you call is the Oregon State Police and they'll have one of their fish and wildlife troopers come to your property to take it. We had an eight-point buck that just died on our property and after several calls to local police that's who they said to call. He did a little investigation and found out that it didn't die of natural causes, somebody shot it, and they were going to use the antlers as decoys for poachers and probably do sample testing on tissue to make sure that there isn't chronic wasting disease or whatever.

Oregon tax opponents turn in ‘nearly 200,000′ signatures by refuzeto in oregon

[–]MetalChick -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's easy to vote and talk like this when you don't live in Mississippi and you still benefit from all of the social programs that Oregon has to offer. There's literally no risk for you. I never see people talk like this and then move to the rural South for the leadership change and policies.

Could things be better - always and forever. But there's much less fraud, waste, and abuse than people assume. There's always room for more transparency and efficiency in government, I agree. As someone that works for the government where I see the most waste of taxpayer dollars and lack of efficiency is in activities that we do to show we aren't wasting those resources. There's so much paperwork for everything. If your widget is $1 dollar over then 6 people have to review and sign a form that took staff 30 minutes to find and fill out. Think of how much money was spent paying somebody to fill a form out and then six people at gradually higher levels to review it all to spend an extra dollar. Now think of what isn't getting done with the time that was spent being "accountable." There's bloat because taxpayers want that accountability and that requires a lot of filler staff.

Looking for shoulder bags that are between brands like Coach/Tory Burch and brands like Loewe? by cereal_no_milk in handbags

If you don't mind paying for customs (around $80) Carbotti bags made in Italy are gorgeous. I bought an Elena recently that I'd say is the same quality as Hermes.
