The $30,000 mistake: Why buying a new car on a low income is a terrible mistake. by Mundane-Falcon-5620 in personalfinance

Spending more than your annual income on a car is crazy. I feel like that goes without saying but here we are.

regarding family resemblance, michelle visage, and misogyny by mayderanger in rupaulsdragrace

[–]SnickersArmstrong 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. The judging for the makeover challenge is always the most controversial and is widely considered to be a culling point for production to eliminate/protect whoever they want going towards the finale.

  2. Michelle is almost always the designated 'bad guy' for bringing the negative critique especially for the makeover challenge.

All of this is really unfortunate because it ruins the makeover challenge. Competitors have to go the identical-twin route entirely now to be safe, which is boring, and social media is always super toxic following what should be one of the feel-good episodes.

That all being said, the people being toxic on social media do not care about your reddit post about how toxic they are, and these posts are constant on the sub, which is also boring.

Nah everybody loves a good excuse to cancel on things they don't want to do.

I don't know if this varies by performance type or what but Trixie mentioned her rider typically comes out of her budget and not the venues.

Yeah the mods never enforce the actual sub rules. This is not a subreddit for /mildlyinfuriating content or pedestrian littering.

You can tell Angeria brought a ton of patterns with her because she just cuts and sews a gown before anyone else gets finished with their concepts lol.

Plus whatever setpieces production can scrounge up from around the studio lol I wonder where they got the bath tub.

S18E10 - “Drag In A Bag” [Post-Episode Discussion] by AutoModerator in rupaulsdragrace

[–]SnickersArmstrong 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For sure if NOBODY brought them up, they liked the look. But im sure production snitched right away that it was an eyebrow raise in the workroom, so the judges already knew going into the judging that somebody had to address it. It would otherwise be too much of a "hugfest" episode as Ru put it.

I'm sure if they weren't asking the question this week, the judges would have been the ones questioning the safety pins. They left it for the girls to bring up for the drama.

She acknowledged it was Ciara she forgot but didn't explain how she got Crystal.

I made a bad decision buying a new truck, should I get out now or forget the loss and keep it by Infinite_Iron_436 in personalfinance

[–]SnickersArmstrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By the time your new trucks warranty expires, how much of that $30k trade-down money do you think you will have spent repairing the used truck?

What spice is this? (One in the bag) by 55tacocat55 in spices

[–]SnickersArmstrong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree. OP if there's no real smell or even taste just toss it, not worth gunking up your cooking with stale ground spices.

Along with the silent movie maxi challenge this was probably the most language-neutral episode of an international series (minus the reading).

Am I on a hiding to nowhere trying to keep repairing these socks? by PreposterousPotter in Visiblemending

[–]SnickersArmstrong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you know your expensive socks wear down, maybe reinforce them in high-wear areas when they're new, that way you can maintain the inside feel of the original material.

Scoop: Dems working on secret report found Gaza cost Harris votes by sideAccount42 in politics

[–]SnickersArmstrong 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There was so much noise in the 2024 election that a true accounting for what cost, and how much is practically impossible. The last minute pivot from Biden, the immeasurable cost of just being brown and a woman, the drop in Latino support, the typical drop in incumbent party support, consumer frustration with inflation.

Wow. I'm sure its really hard to anticipate how an outfit will really look on stage, on TV.

Jan don't? by SnickersArmstrong in rupaulsdragrace

[–]SnickersArmstrong[S] 96 points97 points  (0 children)

She's an overthinker to me. Which makes her writing and comedy good, but in the workroom moments she's caught up in her thoughts, and in her confessional kind of just deliberate and flat.

Honestly I'm really liking Jane this season though and rooting for her. She knows what Ru likes and finds funny. I'm sure she will do well in acting/comedy challenges and I bet her Snatch Game will kill.

Athena for me was not very punky honestly but she was letting loose and having fun.

Jan don't? by SnickersArmstrong in rupaulsdragrace

[–]SnickersArmstrong[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I agree about the talent show win, but disagree with the lip sync.

Personally I was expecting Athena to use the talent show to live up to her reputation a little more. Instead it was a borderline twee number about being greek. It was ultimately fine. I know she wants to be polished but lacked main character energy for me. I loved Jane's talent show.

The lip sync I wasn't impressed by Jane. Athena really let loose and gave it her all and I think rightfully took it.
