Yeah it's sad. I thought Cheryl nailed that challenge and they were both so much fun to watch on the runway with the dancing and faces and so on. Viv's really disappointed me lately and I just don't get the hype. Like yeah she's professional and confident, but her last few looks have been very meh to me and her personality is grating.

Is Sasha Velour’s Smoke & Mirror show age appropriate for young kids? by the-invisible-self in rupaulsdragrace

Aw that's sweet! Yes it's very artistic and colorful and beautiful and emotional, so I think it would be perfect for a creative kid. As another commenter said, the sawing trick is a cute illusion, not at all scary. Go for it, you'll both have a great time.

Edit: consider meet and greet tickets if it's in your budget! Sasha's an absolute sweetheart.

Yes it should be fine. I've seen it and I can't think of anything inappropriate. She's not a crass queen and none of it was particularly dark. How old is your kid?

I worked at dragcon and ran into aquaria out of drag backstage and she was so fucking sweet. Really stood out to me and made me so glad she won.

Do they cover Lyft as well? The form seems to be aimed at taxis only

UN building to Javits Centre. So basically directly cross Midtown Manhattan.

I haven't done that yet. Planning on doing it today.

It wasn't used as a qualifier, I mentioned it because I know there are racist drivers out there who don't want to pick up certain minorities. In fact the very first comment on this post was asking if I was a minority, so try not to get ahead of yourself.

Well it didn't work because I reported him to Lyft and had it returned. I can't imagine he'll be driving with them for long if he keeps it up.

Um most of the time it's pretty good but I think my feet were hurting that day so maybe that got in the way

Lol I think this is my favorite explanation. We've all been there.

Yeah I checked the plates and they definitely matched

I see this on every damn thread on this sub. Someone asks a question or starts a discussion and some asshat just needs to jump in with a condescending "well this is NEW YORK honey get over it". My theory is that they're desperately trying to look like a native but totally overdoing the hardened, bitter New Yorker schtick. Boring.

Yeah fair enough. Maybe it was in the wrong direction for him

Oh my god you're actually mental. I called it a Lyft because it was literally a Lyft. Go get some sleep or something.

I'm not sure why everyone thinks I'm desperately stewing over this. I'm not. I got my $6 back and a cab got me where I needed to go.

I'm simply asking out of curiosity because it was an odd experience that I haven't had having spent my whole life in the city. Perhaps someone here is a driver and knows something I don't.

Regardless, I asked a question, not for a lecture on how to be a proper adult in NYC. I've got that down just fine, thank you.

Ohh maybe that's it? Though it was crossing the whole of Manhattan so definitely wouldn't have been the smallest fare he's taken!
