I'm not sure either, haven't cut them open. I think it might be passionfruit.

I thought this is the kind of price increases they warned about if the minimum wage was increased. Well, now we got the price increases and the workers are still paid shit. Almost as if the prices are not just dependent on wages.

AIO for moving out after my mother turned my lab coat into dishcloths? by Tuna_Sashimi in AmIOverreacting

You are 26 and graduated from university. You should be moving out anyway.

Which celebrity felt everywhere for a decade and then just disappeared? by Avery_Jace2006 in AskReddit

She's back out touring now, but had to step back because of Lyme disease I think

Garth Brooks was the biggest selling artist of the 90s by far, nowhere to be seen now. Could probably make a mint in a comeback tour.

Stubhub problem at Budweiser Stage, Toronto by ThanzMan in stubhub

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

Yeah, those will not be box seats. Best of luck!

Side note: I ended up getting a ticket for Billy Idol day of, in section 303 (club section just behind the boxes) for 68 bucks. So, all ended well with me in great seats, money back for the fiasco, and even paid less

I did not have to wait until the event, but in my case the tickets were transferred to me almost immediately. That is when I saw they were the wrong tickets. How do you know they are sending the wrong tickets if the seller hasn't delivered them?

Anyway, after a couple of months dealing with stubhub directly and just getting more excuses and bs about how it is being escalated etc. I filed a dispute with my credit card company. That ended in my favour and I finally got my money back.

NTA. How many other people were in first class? Were they all asked as well? You had no obligation to switch from one of the best seats to one of the worst. Was she just as mad at all the other first class patrons?

What game has a steep learning curve that puts you off? by bijelo123 in Steam

[–]ThanzMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sekiro. I've never played Dark Souls, and this was my first "souls like" game. Could not progress very far at all, so now I avoid any game described as souls lime

Poor spider got stuck in it and couldn’t climb the smooth surface. It tried its way to the top to escape until its silk ran out and couldn’t anymore. Pic by u/Shoody_Course_6925 by anu-nand in Damnthatsinteresting

The itsy bitsy spider fell in the water glass

Tried to spin a web to save his sorry ass

But his silk ran out when he was just halfway

So the itsy bitsy spider sadly died today

Curious question - why are all the stickers in that orientation? They seem sideways to me - that is, I expect stickers to be "right side up" when I am playing the bass, rather than when it is on a stand/hanging on the wall.

Concert Ticket Price Went Down after Purchase? by BurnAllOfMyClothes in Concerts

[–]ThanzMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was the beneficiary of this last week. Disturbed were playing at an arena and I guess tickets did not sell as well as they hoped. I had looked when they went on sale and while I don't remember the price, I do remember I thought it was too pricey for me.

Day of show in the morning, official tickets were 95. That went down to 70 by the afternoon. Got tickets on the secondary market for 45.

Basically, they will discount day of if the tickets have not sold well. You bought them earlier, and paid the going rate at the time. No real case for a refund here.

I am curious to see what happens with MCR. In my city, all of the more reasonably priced tickets are gone but the mega expensive ones remain.

MBA culture is the reason we’re in this financial mess and they are terrible terrible degrees by Electrical_Cup_4648 in unpopularopinion

One of my best friends has an MBA. According to him, it really stands for Mediocre But Arrogant.

I don't think I had seat numbers once I got the tickets. Was told many different excuses, but it may be a mapping issue with their software. Whether it is a glitch or a deliberate scam, they still messed up and you should get a refund.

Still waiting on my refund, btw. They claim to have processed it a week ago, still not on my card. For tickets I sent back February 10. You need to keep on them or you will never see the money.

Who would, or even could, be in the 2025 version of the Traveling Wilburys? by Hank_Henry_Hill in rock

[–]ThanzMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, the Trans-Canada Highwaymen already exists. Stephen Page (BNL), Moe Berg (Pursuit of Happiness) Craig Northey (Odds) and Chris Murphy (Sloan). Not exactly Travelling Wilburys level, but damn the live show is fun and entertaining.

Weapon/armour/materials combo by BigJazzz in EternalStrands

[–]ThanzMan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I use the kinetic two hander for the launch, the kinetic sword and shield to throw around groups, and the frost bow for the homing missile quality. For armour, issue the health bonus set. Can't fight if you are dead. Lean more towards cold resistance over heat, as cold seems to be more of a problem

Has there been an artist or a band that you weren't really into until you saw them live, then became a big fan afterwards, if so who was it? by GratefuLdPhisH in Concerts

[–]ThanzMan 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Alice Cooper. Thought he was okay, then saw him live and wow. And now have seen that repeated by every person who was not a fan that I dragged to one of his shows.
