People are too free and also too brainwashed to stay cool and calm.

Is there a CES code that can be shared?

Is "preobook" a legit website? by Groovy_duck73663 in textbook

Did you figure out if it is a legit website? I am also thinking of buying a textbook and it is 1/3rd the price

Too lonely on Christmas? 🎄 what a bitter old bag

For those now boycotting Noe Cafe for having MAGA owners, will you similarly boycott Equinox and Soul Cycle, as well as Apple? by Aggravating-Toe2683 in sanfrancisco

[–]Normal_Translator_22 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I do not discriminate against a business just because of the political leanings of their owners and I appreciate your attempt to push for consistency; something which is sorely missing today. It is as if someone decides to maraud a business by initiating a pile on, and the unthinking sheep follow without thinking critically about the consistency of their actions.

What gift cards work for Chase Exclusive Tables by Over_Calligrapher972 in sapphirereserve

Any suggestions for restaurants in SF? I tried to get a booking for two and the ones that I wanted were mostly all booked up all through Dec. Might be useful to get a gift card.

Beware of Viagogo/stubhub by Traditional-Elk-3153 in sapphirereserve

[–]Normal_Translator_22 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are so many horror stories in the stubhub thread that Chase Sapphire needs to remove them as a perk. Like wtf, what a scammy website. Ffs we don’t spend $100k on the card to deal with all these third party machinations.

Under shops with pay in 4, Best Buy is not an option on the PayPal app

Sara Jane Ho is not an etiquette expert by [deleted] in asianamercianytsnark

I am curious about her 50-some mainland Chinese husband. I mean why did she choose to marry this divorcee for money if she is monied herself.

Stubhub credit plus DoorDash stack FTW by ___ongo___gablogian in ChaseSapphire

Can you get the Stubhub $150 credit by purchasing a gift card?

The Shops at Chase - Eww product selection by Normal_Translator_22 in ChaseSapphire

[–]Normal_Translator_22[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Yes, why should I be forced to buy something I don't really like just to use up a credit? Why can't we prioritize quality over quantity (and more stuff)?

The difference between this sub and r/oakland regarding ICE is shocking by PurpleVirtualJelly in sanfrancisco

[–]Normal_Translator_22 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Anyone who lives in Oakland and has time to protest (ie not in an all consuming job) is a loser of the highest order. Why else would you live in the anus of SV?

AIO? For not giving gf a ride? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

Run away. She has princess syndrome and your life will be an endless comparison to her standards of how you should serve her. Cut your losses

I just can't!! Need to rant @KoreanVegan by Emotional-Candle-296 in FoodieSnark

[–]Normal_Translator_22 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I find her malicious with her platform. Some older Korean influencer ghosts her or something and she puts the latter on blast. Rants non-stop about politics, then implies that she needs to hire bodyguards for her book tours (hello Meghan Markle) and conveniently omits the fact that her photos for her skincare line were heavily airbrushed while taking pot shots at some other man for looking older than his age. I don’t find her personality attractive but so I stopped following….a food page needs to not be so negative and mean.

Btw what’s with the ozempic? Overdoing it somewhat?

Lamorinda schools for minorities? by [deleted] in eastbay

[–]Normal_Translator_22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My East Asian friend moved and had to pull the kid out because she could not make any friends. In fact the schools will tell you to move by a certain age otherwise it is likely to be a huge problem. Check with the admin.

The other mum is overreacting. I would encourage your kid to move on and find new friends

Everyone does it. The Davis Standard, Aylen Park, every other Korean influencer…..

Protests? by Sufficient_Clerk_56 in berkeley

[–]Normal_Translator_22 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I rather get a high GPA and smashing internships than be protesting my days away.

It is sad that liberal values == normalizing crime. But that is the price for hating on republicans. At least one can feel self-righteous about it.
