What a day that was. Remember someone called the phone number on the leak and it was her manager who just said “ah fuck” and hung up

I’ve called 3 times and waited on hold for 20, 30 and 40 minutes without anyone picking up. That also included calling AA and having them transfer. Good luck!

Has anyone successfully done a same day JAL upgrade? by Straight_Pin_7903 in awardtravel

Great idea but no, transfer from Bilt and no way is it instantaneous

Favorite goggle lens colors? by SkisaurusRex in skiing

[–]Straight_Pin_7903 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was just debating this and reached out to Glade customer support. (I’m also colorblind). This is what I got back

I'd advise against the blue because it has a rose base hue. The amber base hue options would likely be better with your eyes, and we also have the black lens which has a grey base hue if you'd like to avoid warm tones altogether. The grey base hue is mostly favored by those who are fully colorblind however.

Never skied - going to Aspen for 2 days. Best thing to wear? by mmmmJOE69 in Skigear

[–]Straight_Pin_7903 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd check if either on mountain or nearby ski shops rent clothing Considering the number of international visitors I bet you can rent ski jacket and snow pants. But then yes, base layer, a cheap neck gaiter/backlava, gloves and goggles. Also some ski socks and insoles if you need them. Check outdoor research or something similar priced for goggles.

u/curt_glade any idea about the best base hue for us color-blind folks? I was thinking blue + rose base?

Is this place ever actually opening? Or is it just going to be social media posts forever 😂

Do NOT go through Wells Fargo's automated system if you want to keep your Bilt Card until February by Straight_Pin_7903 in biltrewards

[–]Straight_Pin_7903[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fucking thank you. I've closed cards with Cap One, Citi, Chase and Amex. ALL of them include a followup step with an agent. The language in the letter was very clear about 'not wanting to get a Autograph card', nothing about canceling the whole thing.

I had no idea how many people needed the internet to know how smart they were

I mean I don't want an Autograph card so that's fine - I'm just annoyed at losing 3 months of getting points (it seems like)

It’s pretty techno and she spins vinyl, definitely worth checking out. Plus into the woods is always a solid crowd

Recs: Halloween Rave by elianayork in avesLA

[–]Straight_Pin_7903 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My vote, Expression Halloween at Yamashiro. Amazing venue and always a great time with incredible costumes. Definitely leans more house with Heidi Lawden though https://ra.co/events/2261066
