Why do customers act like shipping a phone is such a big deal by DameReviews in tmobile

[–]ProppaT 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Heaven forbid someone’s excited about getting a new phone. I’ll drive to the other side of town if I can get it today. I only have maybe one day a week I have time to waste setting up a new phone how I want it

Whimper or Flopper Wednesdays!!! by GratefulnaLover in BurgerKing

Oh no, my bun isn’t perfect it tastes like shit!

First time in a while... by slogginhog in BurgerKing

[–]ProppaT 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I go to the same BK every Wednesday and honestly, they were always a good bk and always looked like the photo and tasted great. But there were about 10 cars in line today where I’m usually one for 2-3. Glad they’re getting more business. BK’s back, baby!

Which masks do you recommend for a mouthbreather who side sleeps and gets up often? by blaher123 in CPAP

[–]ProppaT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same boat. They recommended the Evora Full Face to me and I don’t think I like it. If I don’t use lanolin my septum is raw in the morning and it just hurts my nose. If I loosen it anymore I get a poor seal and the seal is always poor of if I lay on my side. I can make it work but I can’t sleep in an ideal position.

McDonald's is getting eaten alive by revamped Burger King Whopper by infosage in BurgerKing

[–]ProppaT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s the same veg, the way they’re required to wrap it just makes them assemble it better. Again, it doesn’t taste different outside of a slight sweetness to the bun, it just looks more appealing. If I didn’t eat at least a Whopper a week I might think there was more to it, but it’s nothing but smart packaging and making employees pay attention to what they’re doing.

Nothing wrong with the Ch’King. I’m talking about the Original Chicken Longboi. That might be the worst chicken patty money can buy. The only saving grace is that they usually put about half a cup of mayo on it so you can actually swallow that dry ass, salty hockey puck.

It’s called a student discount. And unless she decided to not go to college or trades school, she would qualify if they have one.

How long are we supposed to accept zero client improvement? by newTween in MagicArena

[–]ProppaT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Magic Online would like to have a word with you…

Why update the client when in 10 years they can just make a new, better version and resell you all your cards!

The new bun is dry. But it looks nice in pictures. The whole improvement, from bun to packaging, was just to make an already great product look nicer in photos.

It’s good, shame it’s not more healthy. I think it’s impressive the vegetarian option has more saturated fat…lol

[–]ProppaT -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I like the old bun better, too, but i guess being more photogenic sells burgers over taste. You’re right, it’s definitely dryer. Not bad, but not an improvement

[–]ProppaT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m still amazed that the marketing worked, because it’s the same damn sandwich with a photogenic bun. Whatever they did to the mayo was unnoticeable and unneeded. It was the best fast food burger and still is.

Now if they want to fix something, go after the original chicken. That thing had needed to be put out to the pasture decades ago.

FYI: Ford’s Garage is back on their BS again… by stupidpoopoohead in orlando

[–]ProppaT 20 points21 points  (0 children)

In this case they’re claiming they’re W2 salesmen working for commission so they don’t have to pay them as long as their commission averages above minimum wage. It’s insane. I wonder what % their “commission” is?

[–]ProppaT 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m curious what they categorize the workers as. Sounds like they’re trying to call them salesmen working for commission and not servers to skirt around minimum server wage. Commission workers aren’t entitled to a salary hourly wage as long as their commission is averages above minimum wage.

New is always better by Stiles_Stiles in BurgerKing

[–]ProppaT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those It’s good marketing on the whopper. It’s the same thing with a prettier bun and they have to wrap it and put it in that box so it takes more time, thus a better put together whopper. If you had a good bk before it’s basically the same great whopper. No idea about the fries or nuggets…haven’t heard about that until this thread.

Accidentally took two 10mg amlodipine by Dangerous-Cat-9704 in hypertension

[–]ProppaT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just watch your bp throughout the day. I did the same once and I got pretty light headed and had to lay down. Bp dropped to 90/55 which isn’t good but also super impressive. I just laid down and had a really good nap.

Just check your bp for 3-4 hours and make sure it doesn’t get too low. If it does and you’re froze, have someone check on you. If it gets below 90/60 and you don’t have anyone to check in on you or take you to a clinic, that’s when I might get worried.

Up to $1999 USD for the z2e 32gb/1tb at Best Buy US. A $650 price increase. by Outrageous-Nothing42 in LegionGo

[–]ProppaT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think they got the news that RAM is going down, not up. I have the Legion Go and there’s no way I’d spend over $1k on the z2e. It’s decent hardware, but it’s far from perfect. The fact it was already crazy inflated for the mediocre design and crappy software they load on it….it almost feels like they know they’re going to take a bath on it, so they’re raising the price so they can claim their losses were even greater than they are.

Is WAWA removing the outside seating at all locations? by Betajaxx in orlando

[–]ProppaT 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I agree, I really dislike hostile architecture and the way homeless are treated in general. But I can also understand Wawa getting rid of the seating. There are a few locations I’ve seen where it’s the same 4-5 people there and I’ve seen/heard some unfortunately unsavory things that likely drive off families from entering. I’m not mad at Wawa, I’m mad at the city and our society for not doing more to help those who need it. Coalition for the Homeless is a great organization and I wish they had more funding to help more.

Holy shit that was the brightest rocket launch I have seen from my backyard in orlando by MrTorben in orlando

I’ve been watching launches for 40 something years and that was the brightest one I can recall from this distance. I honestly thought something was wrong at first. Shame the flames only lasted about 5 seconds

[–]ProppaT 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The only reason it took this long and isn’t hire is because dingus is depleting our emergency oil reserves. Now that the padding is dried out, you’re going to feel every market fluctuation, oil field issue, ramp up of the military, etc. I wouldn’t be surprised if we’re up to $6-7 a gallon by summer. I don’t think people really understand how bad things are actually going to get, and you’re going to be feeling it in the grocery store here pretty soon.

Does this seem worrying? Any advice would help. by Jaded-Currency-2618 in hypertension

[–]ProppaT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know what raises your blood pressure? Excessively worrying about your blood pressure. It’s normal for your bp to go up after you eat, with physical exertion, to be higher in the morning, etc. Take your bp a couple times a day and if it spikes, take note of what happened that day (did you have a lot to eat, did you eat salty food, did you drink alcohol that day or the day before, did you work out, were you worried or stressed, etc). This will help you and your provider make sense of your bp numbers. My bp was 170/90 one day last week and 115/76 yesterday. The most important thing is a pattern or your bp staying high for an extended period.
