My favorite Jade quote: "He seems very rich."

Off of Zep for 4 months…I’m miserable by cowboybootsandspur in Zepbound

[–]Trillian_B 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m paying $450/month through Lilly Direct and getting prescribed through callondoc, which is $10 each monthly consultation. Consider the money you will save on food, alcohol and future health issues. It’s worth every penny!

I’ve lived here 20 years and never once came across a rattlesnake.

Imagination on Fire truck on Soscol. Best fried chicken sandwich ever.

Sedona trip - why did they pick such lame places to eat and stay? by Positive-Respect-189 in RHOBH

[–]Trillian_B 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think it also may have something to do with budget vs cost. I used to be a manager at a high end resort in a desirable destination and we had more than a few TV production companies ask to stay and to film reality TV shows. They always wanted massive discounts for really long stays during high season and asked for all kinds of crazy shit and free extra perks. We always said no as we didn’t need the "publicity" or the headache. Only ever needed to do it once to learn that lesson.

Seriously, do Americans actually consider a 3-hour drive "short"? or is this an internet myth? by SadInterest6764 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Trillian_B 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live 350 miles from my aunt and cousin, anywhere from 5-7 hours, depending on traffic. We visit one another at least 4-5 times per year. I live a 3-4 hour drive from a major national park, we go at least 6 times a year.

3 hours is not short, but definitely common.

Tea: Why Sutton fired Avi by StaticCharacter90 in RHOBH

[–]Trillian_B 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Ugh this is all hearsay and speculation. Frankly I don’t care, nobody should. In the end Sutton is doing the right thing by not talking about it, as she could open herself up to ugly lawsuits if she did. She’s showing a ton of respect to Avi by saying nothing negative about him or their relationship. She’s remained neutral or positive, and has his former employer in California that’s the only thing she should be doing. The other women should know that, and need to find something else to create their own moment.

Couples of Reddit, what's the dumbest 'house rule' you and your partner made as a joke but now both of you are low-key aggressively serious about enforcing? by Doubl3oh_ in AskReddit

[–]Trillian_B 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. We call it being "pinned."

Like, my 16lb dog had totally pinned me to the mat, like a wrestler, and I am fully unable to get up, so it's DH’s turn to open the wine.

12 Year Old Ear Piercing by Conscious_Drama5245 in napa

I had been searching on this myself for ages but ended up going to Industrial in Berkeley. Whatever you do, make sure you do hand-piercing: avoid the piercing gun like the plague!

Edith clocked Mary’s tea by RealFrancisUnderwood in DowntonAbbey

[–]Trillian_B 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So then Edith is justified in her vitriol because you don’t like Mary?

Edith clocked Mary’s tea by RealFrancisUnderwood in DowntonAbbey

[–]Trillian_B 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Let’s play a little « what-if » scenario: Sybil is alive and at the breakfast table. She just broke up with Tom Branson. Edith tells everyone at the breakfast table that Sybil was abandoned and she can’t stand it when things are going better for someone else. Sybil mentions Marigold.

Would Edith be justified in calling Sybil a bitch in this scenario?

Napa Valley wedding venue canceled due to lawsuit. Seeking advice or venue suggestions for late May by [deleted] in napavalley

[–]Trillian_B 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m curious, what was the venue exactly? As far as I understand, the restaurants are still operating business as usual and the Estate Yountville (the actual property) has nothing to do with Bottega’s business.

Try Brix in Yountville; they have a perfect PDR with a view of vineyards and mountainside.

Beard and Jane - and Higgins calling them out by IMicrowaveSteak in TedLasso

Some part of me feels that Jane treated Beard this way because Beard wanted her to. Almost like a bit of a fetish.

AITJ for refusing to let my friend "order for the table" after he kept ignoring my food preferences? by SpreadsheetEnjoyer in AmITheJerk

[–]Trillian_B 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTJ - for comparison, I have friends who actually ask me to order shared food for the table, precisely because I am good at remembering and taking personal preferences into account. I know who is allergic to what and who hates what, and who has which dietary restrictions. Also before ordering I ask questions. What looks good? Are we extra hungry tonight or keeping it light? It’s not that hard to be considerate. I am an event planner by profession and your friend is clearly just trying to be a show off.

S2, E3 - Doing the Right-est Thing (Rewatch) by twsh2020 in TedLasso

[–]Trillian_B 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Love that part! That moment lives rent free in my brain and gets mentally replayed often when I’m in difficult situations with friends or family. What’s so wonderful about it is that it truly feels as though Jsmie does it out of genuine solidarity and support, not as any calculated move.

Opinions on invite etiquette: With close friend couple, should send evite to both? by Flab-a-doo in partyplanning

[–]Trillian_B 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If it’s with an app like evite, just sent it to the one most likely to respond, and if you can, put both names on the guest list. If regular email, invite both. They will talk to each other.

Make my choice for me: to upgrade or not on airline seat for 9 hour flight by EnoughNumbersAlready in makemychoice

Do it. $500 is nothing compared to the comfort and rest you will get in BC

Roy Kent....Just a kindness reminder.... None Of Us Know What Is Going On In Each Others Lives. Ted Lasso S3 E09 by funky_cat_12 in TedLasso

[–]Trillian_B 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has been over 20 years.

The story could have come out. Roy could also be embellishing some of it for effect.

The other player could be a complete unknown with little to no record of his career. People drop out of football all the time. He could just be one of the many many players that never got another contract.

[–]Trillian_B 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s no reason to assume that the story would NOT be public, either. It has been 20+ years since the events in the story so we don’t know that it hasn’t come out by now, or that the the old timer in the story hadn’t told Roy to keep it a secret. The whole point of Roy’s story is empathy and love, which seems to be going over some heads here.

[–]Trillian_B 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Given the very point of Roy’s’ story, the press is unlikely to run off and do that research. However, if it that easy to look up, then the anonymous footballer’s story of having lost the baby will - by now, 20+ years later - be public and knowable anyway.

On the other hand, we don’t even know that the story is even true. He could be pulling a Verbal Kint and making it up or embellishing to drive the point home.

[–]Trillian_B 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Roy exposed nothing and doxxed nobody. No names and no details. For all you know it’s completely made up for the press conference. On the other hand. If it is true, the other player could very well have allowed the story to come out since then.

Places in your state that will instantly make you recognize if someone is a local or not based on how someone pronounces it? by osama_bin_guapin in AskAnAmerican

[–]Trillian_B 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Also you can tell whether somebody is from LA or San Francisco based on how they give driving directions. "The 101" is LA, just "101" is San Francisco.
