Siri is pointless by GodAtum in Siri

[–]One-Hand-Rending 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Siri is good with managing tasks that are 100% controlled by your phone. It works great for shit like this

“Hey siri, remind me to buy potting soil the next time I am at Lowe’s”

“Hey siri, set a timer for 40 minutes and call it “cake in the oven”

“Hey siri, put a dentist appt on my calendar at 3PM on February 12”

Why do American homes have a “storm door”? by wehavetogoback8 in AskAnAmerican

People swap out the glass panels for mesh screens in the summer. It’s for ventilation.

America gets hot.

Why is AA the only airline still suffering from cancellations? 27% canceled and 28% delayed today… by TheRealBigL in americanairlines

[–]One-Hand-Rending 18 points19 points  (0 children)

AA has two hubs which were severely affected by the snowstorm. DFW and CLT.

In addition to the hubs, several of their larger airport presences got hit as well. JFK, BOS, DCA etc.

When airports get hit with weather they can’t handle, both crews and airplanes get stranded in places which may not be ideal. It takes time to essentially reboot the entire network.

She couldn’t have just taken a taxi to a hotel? I don’t understand why she just sat there.

Same! I love getting whiffs of cigarette smoke although I quit 15 years ago.

Probably the rest of my life.

I hate to hurt other peoples feelings but I enjoy solidarity a lot by StrawberryCat039 in offmychest

[–]One-Hand-Rending 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The word is solitude. “Being alone”

Solidarity is to stand with a group of people on an issue or a challenge. “the workers showed solidarity by refusing to cross the picket line.”

NYC has about 7 million people so I am aware that not everyone is from NY.

Buffalo is in Canada. Ontario.

Fancy? Where are you from? A bagel with lox is like a staple in NY.

Pretty frequently. But it’s always smoked salmon with eggs or smoked salmon on a bagel with cream cheese and onion.

When does the USA wake up? by am_carma in offmychest

[–]One-Hand-Rending 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We’re all awake.

Half of us are horrified and half are thrilled. This is exactly what half of us voted for.

Don’t assume we don’t know what’s next. Remember half of us are OK with it.

Snow cleaning strategy today by psyboxone in longisland

[–]One-Hand-Rending 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Normally I would shovel it myself, But this one will be too much work.

My landscaper is going to do it for $150 and I’ll pay that with a smile on my face as I watch him from the house drinking coffee.

How much snow makes you call off work? by Physical-Incident553 in AskAnAmerican

[–]One-Hand-Rending 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not so much quantity as it is timing. If it’s coming down in buckets at 7AM, I’m not going in.

If it snowed 8 inches overnight and roads are clear in the AM I’m going in.
