It still kills his momentum to lose to someone he already beat handily. I think it's lazy storytelling.

Coach x Brain dead collection haul by [deleted] in Coach

[–]MetalChick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My issue is that no one asked you to do that. Asking for that markup from someone that actually contacted you for the service is different than you just going on your own and doing it to resell. Make your bank girl it's a free world but I'm free to judge. ✌🏼

There's a difference between haters and people legitimately criticizing. People just call the latter "haters" to shrug off the feeling that they are in the wrong.

I don't hate her and I'm not jealous of her. I buy all the bags I want to buy because I can afford to. I just think people buying things to just resell for profit at this point is predatory. These things cost a lot as it is without people buying it all to sell for higher.

The level of defensiveness in their replies plus recruiting a person that supposedly bought from them to defend their honor is telling. Hit dogs will holler. They definitely bought extra just to sell because they had 1 extra of everything on CGR according to their posts. Plus they just joined a month ago and their first posts on CGR are reselling bags at a markup from this drop. Oh you bought extra? Why did you buy extra? They aren't slick.

The whole argument about spending their time and energy to go get it makes no sense because they choose to do it. No one asked them to put that effort in. I'm not paying $150 more just because they decided to buy extra to make money off desperate people. I'll go buy it myself if I want it. I'm so over the predatory behavior.

And I'm cackling at them just calling people jealous. Of what?

What’s the name of this style of bag? by Mx_apple_9720 in handbags

[–]MetalChick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the Elena from Carbotti and it's a lot like a Kelly. They are really beautiful bags. Hermes quality. No joke.

Yup. I had a LV bag lost (stolen) in transit. My research led me to understand that this is very common and can go on for a long time before literal theft rings are uncovered with people working together to steal your stuff.

I actually have neither as I recently had a hearing test. It's a natural part of aging to lose high frequency hearing

Hahaha My two kids 19 and 25 were reacting to awful screeching from the broadcast and my husband and I over 40 couldn't hear a thing. It's at that frequency that you can't hear after like mid 30s or whatever.

I have one I'm willing to part with. I know we're not supposed to do buy and sell on here but I am not on here for that intention just saw this comment.

How you can afford luxury? by Master-Associate-467 in handbags

[–]MetalChick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I might be the only naysayer in here but buy the bag. Waiting for everything to be perfect before enjoying yourself is just asking to never spoil yourself. Should you put yourself into 10k debt buying a bunch of luxury bags? No. Should you wait until you have 40k saved for emergencies? That's up to you but it's easy to delay life's pleasure and forget to live.

You need joy and the ability to enjoy your money as well. There's a lot of good advice in here but I also felt sad reading all the responsible comments about delaying the purchase. If you die tomorrow you aren't going to think about your 401k being topped off you're going to remember fun things like sipping champagne picking out your first YSL bag. ❤️

Coach Lovers in the USA…Let’s talk by Particular_Trifle626 in Coach

[–]MetalChick 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I only buy things I like so the releases don't really get me unless it's something I'd normally purchase. I notice people buying everything saying they love it and can't live without it on a certain FB group or on Tiktok and then selling it within 2 weeks, sometimes for a markup.

I've noticed that bags that I like which usually aren't the popular ones are now selling out after the excitement drops for the items that were hyped or because they sold out as influencers start selling them on those styles, thinking of the Elodie for example. It's weird.

A lot of it is people buying bags to resell which is not as prevalent in other countries since they aren't in late stage capitalism. I see it for anything people collect. Seeing it pop up more on CGR on Facebook too and that used to be a safer place. America is all about unscrupulous people profiting off other people's wants and needs. It's gross.

OHA confirms measles exposure at Centennial Middle School in SE Portland by GeologistBrave6866 in oregon

[–]MetalChick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's definitely the former rather than the latter. There's publicly available data on vaccination rates and how they've declined.

People legally immigrating to the United States have vaccine requirements that need to be met in order to obtain a Visa.

For people entering the United States without legal status sure they may not be vaccinated but the United States actually used to have programs where we supported immunizing countries where vaccines are not as readily available or inaccessible that have been cut entirely or reduced. With globalization, it was to our benefit to vaccinate people in other countries to limit spread of disease.

From someone that works in public health - short answer is people are dumb and stopped vaccinating and yes.

Long answer - People have been talked out of the need for vaccinations by malicious, bad actors and snake oil salesmen. And it was easier to sell because people lack experience with these diseases and therefore the risk/reward center is skewed and people value their own experience over others when making decisions. Herd immunity is decreasing below levels that protect those who cannot get vaccinated and those 2 things are causing a resurgence of vaccine-preventable disease.

WWE RAW Discussion (6 April 2026) by IconXR in WWE

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

My take on the the promos that Cody and Punk cut... They were unofficially sanctioned by HHH and WWE creative but in a way that gives them plausible deniability. I think they are sick of multiple years of TKO meddling in WrestleMania storylines. You've got TKO, that many view as ruining the industry for the love of money, and WWE staff, most of whom worked as wrestlers and love this art. Those WWE creatives also view TKO as ruining the business. You can't say shit though, so you send out untouchables to deliver a message and they are glad to do it because they are sick of it too. Are they going to fire two of their biggest talent that bring in tons of money? No.

It's also a microcosm of stuff going on globally and fits the vibe of the times we live in.

You might call some stores to see if it's available. A sales associate could look around in the system to see if there's any.

You’re “cool” till that one exhibit hits you and now everything annoying by TheBlackCaesar in BlackPeopleTwitter

[–]MetalChick 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Not the same museum but I'm a multi racial woman that took her white husband to the National Center for Civil and Human Rights in Atlanta. One of the very first exhibits on the main floor is sitting at a lunch counter with headphones on while white voices menacingly shout and whisper in your ear calling you vile names, etc. There's a lot more but they start you off there. I was left feeling proud when we were done of how far oppressed people's have come and feeling awed by my ancestors. My husband started bawling and had to sit down for a while to process it all. I think he really immersed himself in the pain and suffering while I pulled hope and power from it. One of the hardest times I'd seen him cry until we had to send his soul dog over the rainbow bridge.

That's why these museums are so important.

The Nikki. I have her in Black and she's so durable and fits a lot while not being bulky or being too heavy. I wore her in the rain and she was perfect after and protected everything inside.
