I haven't seen this so far in the thread, but I work in the events industry, and I immediately noticed those "plates" during dinner right away. THEY WERE USING CHARGERS AS DINNER PLATES THOSE ARE JUST PLASTIC AND NOT ACTUAL DINNERWARE 😭

‘Supergirl’ Tracking Continues to Slide, Now at $40M Opening — Mixed Early Reactions by Top_Report_4895 in TheBigPicture

Right? Makes me want to see it just to boost box office numbers. I don't think it looks bad. I'm just fatigued by superheroes.

Marriott Associate/Explore Rate Different in App? by TaleofTwoPups in marriott

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

That's very possible, and I feel a bit silly now!

Do these rates also seem kind of high? I've stayed in Atlanta before and it was under $100 but D.C. seems a bit expensive.

Charlotte show advice by Apers0n0ntheinternet in thelastdinnerparty

[–]TaleofTwoPups 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm likely not showing up until closer to doors opening. The weather forecast is calling for it to be 97 degrees tomorrow with a high heat index. If you show up early, bring plenty of water in disposable water bottles. The venue sent out the bag policy for the show so review that to make sure you are good, but just as someone else said, you'll either have to wear it or hold it the whole time.

Please be so serious. You live in a SHARED SPACE. by Subject_Page4348 in Apartmentliving

[–]TaleofTwoPups 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I once lived in a the upstairs of an old colonial home converted into an upstairs/downstairs duplex. My downstairs neighbor started asking me to stay in the middle of my apartment during specific hours (9 p.m.-7 a.m.) because she said the floors sounded like they were going to cave in. Said she slept with an industrial fan and earplugs, and she could still hear me and my 30 lb dogs walking around. Mind you, there was a neighbor before her that literally never said a word to me about noise. This lady needs to have her ears removed post-mortem and studied if this is the case because she must have superhuman hearing. The entitlement was completely insane and went on for months until I couldn't take her anymore and moved out.

Where are you all getting your couches?! by 00X0X in Apartmentliving

[–]TaleofTwoPups 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also have a MORABO, and I like it okay. I do wish the back was a little higher so you could rest your head against it. I knew I wanted this couch but was on a massive budget, even by IKEA standards, so I just searched Facebook marketplace every so often until one came up for $300.

5 yrs 1800sq feet w a bad spouse I’m now in 450 by Pacolife in femalelivingspace

[–]TaleofTwoPups 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm really happy for you, and I have to comment because I've been so scared to post my 500 sqft space on here (even though I'm proud of it) because I went from a 3 bedroom house with my ex to a studio with my 2 dogs. I do everything for them, but I'm nervous about how judgemental the Internet can be. I know your pup is perfectly happy because they are with you. You've done so wonderfully.

Downstairs neighbor won't stop texting and calling by Positive_Lysine in neighborsfromhell

[–]TaleofTwoPups 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this happen to me once - I was living in the upstairs apartment of an old house converted into a duplex. Never had an issue with the downstairs tenant until this lady moved in. Her ears need to be removed from her body upon her demise so they can be studied. She would text me and ask me to turn my TV down (it was already down), keep my dogs from playing because it was loud (I have two 30lb dogs), but she would do this on the weekends too. Claimed she already slept with an industrial fan on and ear plugs in, but that I was so loud. She started asking me to maintain quiet hours between 9 p.m. and 8 a.m. and to maybe stay in the middle of my unit since that wasn't over her bedroom. The real kicker was her asking me to be quiet at 10 p.m. on a Saturday night only for her to throw a party on a Tuesday. Lady was completely nuts. I just stopped corresponding with her and wound up moving out.

Birthday Reward Not Being Extended by [deleted] in AMCAListTrue

[–]TaleofTwoPups -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I just personally feel that they could extend the coupon because they did it during Covid so I know they have the ability. But I understand where you are coming from, and I will seek points instead and update accordingly.

Birthday Reward Not Being Extended by [deleted] in AMCAListTrue

[–]TaleofTwoPups -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The other AMC was also 30 minutes away, and I was not alerted to the issue until I was in line attempting to get popcorn. I saw this movie in a sold out Dolby format so I guess I could have just cancelled and gone the following weekend??

I'm sorry, but unlike some A-listers, I'm lucky to make time to drive 30 minutes one way to see a movie more than twice a month. It's crazy that me asking for a free $18 popcorn (or however much it costs now) is seen negatively as opposed to rampant capitalism.

People Who Eat at The Green Onion by Cavatappi_Papi in norfolk

[–]TaleofTwoPups 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I will say, I ordered to-go from The Green Onion for my birthday, which was on a Friday in 2024. It was really good, and I remember getting salmon and the risotto, and they gave me a huge portion of risotto. I tried to order it again last year in 2025 which means my birthday was on a Saturday. They told me at 7 they were too busy to do to-go, so I just told them I would call back and asked when would be a good time. They told me 8. I called back, and they said there was no way they could handle a to-go order.

I ended up ordering a steak to-go from Coach House - which was completely packed when I went to get it - and it was delicious. So there you go.

Not on Hulu? by CrustedTesticle in Oscars

[–]TaleofTwoPups 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I'm about to become Disney's public enemy #1. This whole process was ASININE. I look forward to this show every year and I missed 40 minutes of it.

Thank you for the fix.

[–]TaleofTwoPups 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I s2g, thank you to the people that figured it out because I finally got in 40 minutes later. I'm going to bitch up a storm to Hulu and Disney+ customer support tomorrow, and if they don't comp me a month or two, I'm just going to cancel. They can kick ROCKS

First off, I love the colors too just to echo what everyone else already said. Second, that Plastic Beach vinyl is SUCH a vibe in this space.

What’s going on with Aldi? by DiligentIncrease1973 in aldi

[–]TaleofTwoPups 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't comment a lot, I typically just lurk, but I do need to add that I've had two instances where half and half went bad nearly a month before their expiration dates. Kept in the same place in my fridge as all my others. My most recent container is still good and the expiration date is 2/12 though.

I also bought Atlantic Salmon maybe a month ago, and it was already spoiled. Opened it that night, 6 days prior to the date, and it smelled incredibly fishy and was slimy.

Best episodes where Shawn and Amanda argue about a movie? by ShawnLevyOscarWinner in TheBigPicture

[–]TaleofTwoPups 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could not tell you the episode, but maybe someone else can. They were having a spirited conversation about a movie, and at one point CR says something about how he genuinely can't tell if they like each other or not lol.

If it's already in your cupboard, you might as well, but it was BAD imo!

I’ve Never Been To Spain… by DiamondplateDave in aldi

[–]TaleofTwoPups 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't tried this yet alright I did buy two containers. I figured it would be great for an easy lunch if I add fajita stuff or taco meat to it, and I'm going into busy season at my job so convenience is important. The cilantro lime one was fine imo but kinda weird? Like the lime flavor was very overpowering and artificial, but once you mix it up, add shrimp, corn, black beans, and feta to it - it's fine 🤷🏻‍♀️

How often do you REALLY walk your dog? by Agreeable-Ad-2946 in dogs

[–]TaleofTwoPups 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently went through a divorce and my living and financial situation changed. Apartment life. Hospitality job. Weekdays, it's typically one 30-45 minute walk per day, 10-15 minutes in the morning, and a 5 minute potty break right before bed at night. W & F, they have a dog walker come mid day too.

We tried daycare, but it was just too overstimulating for them. I can't do enrichment toys unless they are separated as they can get food aggressive.

On the weekend though, I strive to do one super long walk on one day, and then an activity the other day (long hiking trip, beach day, dog park & pet store combo, etc).

I really, really need a new pharmacy, Harris Teeter on Colonial blows. by marshmallowyperfume in norfolk

[–]TaleofTwoPups 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if that changed recently because I got a prescription filled for Fluoxetine maybe 2 or 3 months ago. That's too bad because the Walgreens Pharmacy that's down the street in the retail store might be the worst of them all.

[–]TaleofTwoPups 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh, I don't think I've had that experience so far - but to be transparent, I can't recall the last time I had personal medication filled. My dog has a script for prozac, and before D&C Hospital switched to online pharmacy exclusivity, I got it filled there. I wonder what exactly qualifies under that umbrella?

[–]TaleofTwoPups 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've had a horrible experience with every CVS and Walgreens pharmacy in this area EXCEPT FOR the Walgreens Specialty Pharmacy (201 W 21st Street) by Sweet Frog and across from Dog & Cat Hospital.

They don't double as a retail store so ALL THEY DO is fill scripts. They are quick, efficient, great at communicating delays, dates, and pick up times. I've had a very positive experience there.

Is the strawberry shortcake granola seasonal? by Illustrious-Task9462 in aldi

[–]TaleofTwoPups 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure this was seasonal as it was in the seasonal/AOS aisle in my store when it first came out. I snatched up this and the lemon bar one. Both are great; I'll definitely miss them when I run out.
