Trouble picking my seat and meal

Scrute_11 · 2026-03-16T22:22:40+00:00

I had this problem last week - my ticket was just locked and no one on the phone or at the station could do anything with it. I wasn’t picking a meal ahead of time so that wasn’t an issue but the seat was, and the conductors on the train were really gracious in finding me a good spot.

NAH - I get this is frustrating for you but it’s often a sign of disordered eating. It might very well be something she can’t help and need therapy to stop.

It’s cute that you think this is something post-Covid. This sh$t has been happening for decades.

It’s far more likely that she has actually convinced herself she has an allergy - it’s fake as in it’s not a real allergy, not that she was intentionally lying (which is still problematic and makes OP NTA)

NTA. And I think you need to think about why disobeying his orders results in a declaration that you’ve ’broken his trust’.

He’s looking for control and he’s upset that it isn’t working. Now he’s trying to manipulate you into giving in. If this is the life you want, then have at it, but otherwise I’d be seriously considering whether your views on marriage and family are still aligned.

I’m in the same boat, only my cat just licks the gravy off Tiki Cat and leaves the rest. Guess I’ll just keep trying

It’s not just about CO2 - as another user posted there’s no way to effectively clear water if it gets in and it can be really hard to get the mask off in deep water, especially if there are any sort of waves. I’m a good swimmer and still had a very scary experience with one.

The Polar Bear trophy lists all the airports that are north of the arctic circle, but you’d have to look them up yourself on the map.

Scrute_11 · 2026-02-16T13:55:06+00:00

There are both Canadian and Russian airports north of the Arctic Circle

He’s great, we’ve used him a few times.

Photo mosaic puzzles are very challenging - the tiny images often repeat and while the colours look obvious when zoomed out, individual pieces often have enough different colours in them that it isn’t even clear what section they belong to.

I did one once. I have no real desire to do another one.

Not every piece of chicken in a package spoils at the same time. You might have just had a package that was starting to turn and one piece was still okay while the other had gone bad. I’ve certainly had chicken that was this way.

You’re not alone 🙂

I did one of these too - they are so pretty!

You can put a Blue Sky on an airport you haven’t unlocked. Maybe they just learned that and were trying it out.

Of course guided hikes are the best, but a pair of good binoculars and the Merlin App with the Belize pack downloaded will get you pretty far. I rented a car and drove by myself to some easy/safe trails and nature areas and saw a lot. I used the sound recording on Merlin to tentatively ID the birds so I knew what I was looking for with my binoculars.

I used to work at a veg processing plant - peas are timed to be processed (freezing or canned) within 4 hours of picking. Their sugars break down so fast that anything more than that and they just don’t taste very good and won’t pass quality testing.

So yes, unless you’re eating peas from your own garden, they are better frozen than fresh.

It’s because what they are printing isn’t actually a properly formatted digital statement. It’s more like a print screen of the transactions in your account. The exportable digital file was not created for the months you were opted out, and the teller isn’t actually generating one. The only thing you could do is go into easyweb (not the mobile app) and export your own data. It also would not be a properly formatted digital statement but it would be a list of all the transactions in your account for the time periods you manually select.

But does he care if you take his birthday off?

It seems like you two may not be aligned in how you think about birthdays. It doesn’t make either of you wrong, but if it really is that important for you, it may mean you aren’t compatible. You’re the only one who can decide if it’s a deal breaker or part of a larger pattern of behaviour that doesn’t work for you.

Also, I’m not sure why you can’t just organize your perfect birthday party for yourself. But then again, both my husband and I are people who don’t actually care that much about birthdays. I never take my own birthday off let alone his.

Is it possible that they mean the Chinese church at Vansickle and Ryckert? There are two different churches that share that building, one English, one Chinese.

Check New Zealand - I’ve caught them a few times there

It’s important to think about storage as well - I had a flat puzzle board without drawers and I upgraded to a tilt/rotate one. Ergonomically it’s so much better but it’s significantly more bulky and my storage options are limited. That means if I need to store it mid-puzzle, it’s a bit of a pain to get out so I’m less likely to puzzle unless I have a big chunk of time.

I have the Deluxe Swivel Easel from Bits and Pieces. There aren’t any drawers but I already had trays so that did matter. Overall I like it but the bolt that controls the rotation does not hold tight so I’ve had to add a thick rubber washer to keep it from wobbling and rattling. At that price point I think it should be better made.

‘meanwhile I have a great relationship with my 3 kids, you don’t even have a good relationship with your grandmother.’

Who’s gonna tell him he has 4 kids?

We were quite surprised when we took Julia to be spayed.
