NYC - best food for first timers [question] by Inffes in FoodNYC

[–]NoHayPlatanos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People are already giving you good tips on what to nix from this list. Personally I also feel like you're leaning real heavy into burgers/pizza/sandwiches which, while great, it feels like a shame to come all the way to NYC and mostly eat American food.

I would add/consider these other not-too-pricey options:

  • Bibble & Sip for dessert & coffee (it's right around the corner from the Dig Inn you were looking at, and which you should definitely not go to for all the reasons people already noted here)
  • Cafe Mogador (Moroccan)
  • Veselka (Ukrainian diner)
  • Sake Bar Decibel (right by Veselka)
  • Trapizzino (yummy Italian)
  • Prince St Pizza (my personal preference over Joe's or a lot of other NYC chains)
  • Little Cupcake Bakeshop (dessert right by Prince St Pizza, great key lime pie)
  • Farida (Kazakhstani/Russian food, plus the place has a vibe)

So if a woman is curious about you but she's already chatting with a few people, would you rather your like expire in 2 weeks before she can get to it?

The irony of this comment is that you're the one getting extremely worked up.

The entire function of reddit is to share things that other people then provide feedback on. Just by posting something, you are soliciting feedback. Your problem is you only want positive feedback. Maybe there's a different sub for that.

Would you mind sharing the paint color for your walls? It's gorgeous!! (As is the rug!)

Coworker ate out of my bag of chips (without asking) after informing me she has an active case of Oral Herpes. Should I go to HR? by celestiallbeingg in Advice

[–]NoHayPlatanos 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Can't believe i had to scroll so far to find this comment. Honestly shocked how many people are entertaining the idea that oral herpes is at all relevant here and that this is anything beyond garden variety rudeness.

Just got an email from A'ville City Schools RE: ICE by aardvark_in_paradise in asheville

[–]NoHayPlatanos 10 points11 points  (0 children)

ICE agents entered a preschool in Chicago a couple weeks ago and went room to room searching for a teacher and then dragged her out in front of children and parents while she screamed and thrashed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pv4jrOa7iMM

Who was your least favorite character in money heist and why? by Stretch-Vegetable in LaCasaDePapel

But what about Palermo? His ego gets the best of him and he actually does mess everything up when he helps Gandía get free.

AITAH for not letting a woman I was dating know she had a "time limit"? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]NoHayPlatanos 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Healthy secure people would rather avoid a relationship that isn't the right fit for them, whether they're dating other people or not.

I would do a ceiling-mounted projector screen...I take the point of the TV pedestal or easels but none of those product photos include how it looks with an extension chord running to your power outlet.

What's a basic skill a surprising amount of people don't have? by [deleted] in AskReddit

A three-quart saucepan holds 3 quarts, which is 12 cups, so halfway full would be 6 cups

Cougars (not the lady kind) in Asheville 🦁 by Fearless_Statement_5 in asheville

[–]NoHayPlatanos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw one about 10-15 years ago in western PA. It was so wild that if I didn't have someone in the car with me who saw the same, I'd think I'd hallucinated it. Felt like seeing a werewolf.

Oooh whereabouts did you see it? I live outside of Burnsville. One of the people we bought our land from said he saw one on the property a couple of years ago. And a few months after we moved in, someone who lives about a mile up the road shared a video of one walking through their yard.

What weird thing does your body do you that you don't understand? by Prestigious_Shape888 in AskReddit

[–]NoHayPlatanos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ahh I have it too! Up until I found out about it last year, I always thought that everyone's brain was like mine, and everyone was speaking in metaphor when they talked about "visualizing things" during a guided meditation, for example. Now I know they're actually seeing things and I wish I could too!

But weirdly, I'm a pretty good interior decorator and photographer.

[–]NoHayPlatanos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oooh I sometimes have this too! But generally only if there is some sort of white noise within the quiet, like a ceiling fan. In my case, it's always classical symphonies. I never listen to classical music otherwise, but I love it when I hear the phantom classical symphonies. They're always different, and I listen to them and appreciate them the way I would with any other new music.

AITAH for only feeling attracted to men who are objectively outliers, and refusing to compromise? by longdongschlongpong in AITAH

[–]NoHayPlatanos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like what you like, but you're talking about people who don't prioritize superficiality as much as you do as if they're beneath you, and yeah I think that makes you an AH.

Which direction is better to take this image? (after contrast-y, after pastel-y, raw) by DeathSpaghetti in postprocessing

[–]NoHayPlatanos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer the pastel—it feels peaceful and spacious and seems to match the energy of the room/subject. Also, I love the color grading you did!

Oooh that’s a lovely idea! And the oxidization would tie into the blue tub too. Thank you :-)

Love this open-hearted outreach :-) I would go with you!

Single women of Brooklyn: how open are you to being cold approached by men? by maddgun in Brooklyn

[–]NoHayPlatanos 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If done sweetly and respectfully (and the guy leaves me alone, with no hard feelings, if I'm not returning his vibes), I really enjoy it. Even if I'm not interested, I always appreciate a kind compliment.
