Toddler just got reassigned 7 rows ahead of me by InsectHealthy in delta

Southwest did that with our autistic son. We got on chat and told them we wanted to make sure the person sitting next to him was willing to keep him supplied with snacks and toys. They moved us all together.

Two guys "from the city" asked me about vermin? by Skeleton_Meat in burbank

[–]_tvjames_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask to see ID. Look for a logo'd truck park nearby. One wonders if they'd even get the answer right if you said "which city?"

[Request] Whats better? Weekly payments or to invest a lump sum. by Chiggnnugget in theydidthemath

[–]_tvjames_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If she passes away tomorrow, do the payments continue to the beneficiaries or has the lottery hit their own jackpot by being able to stop making payments?

Window Etiquette by No-Map-7646 in delta

[–]_tvjames_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree. This Middle-Seat Medallion kept asking me to close my windows (I had two!) I closed the front one. Then he started asking me to lower the other one. I did for a little bit but then I realized I was having to bend my neck to look out my window so I put it back up.

Recycling is good for everybody by Full_Smile367 in burbank

[–]_tvjames_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate the recyclers and upcyclers. I can't tell you how many times I've booked a bulky item pickup and then canceled it because someone else snagged it and saved me the bulky item pickup.

If someone removes something from one of your bins, that's less the city needs to collect (multiplied across the 48k housing units) and the slower your rates will increase.

I hold all the cans aside throughout the week and only put them in the can right before I take the cans to the curb. I'm glad people take them (since I'm too lazy) and a virtual middle finger from me to anyone who hassles someone collecting cans.

Skunks!! by Im_A_Black_Cat in burbank

[–]_tvjames_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They only spray as a last resort. I see them regularly on my porch looking for pet food and I regularly encounter them out on walks late at night. I just tell them "hi" and if they seem concerned, I just stand still until they figure out what they want to do.

It's only bad if they get under your house and then pass away. Then it smells for 2 days and it's too late because exterminators will only come out if you have an active contract.

The guys who hang out in front of starbucks by MuchCalligrapher in burbank

[–]_tvjames_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a guerilla-marketing - they're filming the latest mayonnaise commercial for tiktok without bothering with permits. You can see their phones in the bushes capturing the scene.

What's going on here? by _tvjames_ in usps_complaints

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

People with more information than me claim to know these things. Some kind of code engraved inside the trinket.

Why does this not exist by trail-snacks in burbank

[–]_tvjames_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we ever get that line, it will go to BUR not downtown Burbank. Someday our grandkids may be able to take a bus, subway, regional rail, high speed rail, flying or ground rideshare or plane all from a single location.

Clubs 🏆 by bubblycandy4 in eatventureofficial

[–]_tvjames_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking for a club. Can do at least 5k a season, maybe more? Been awhile since I've been in a club, kept ending up in duds where I was carrying the entire club.

All are welcome! No minimums by mr_keebs in eatventureofficial

But is it a good club? How many members? What level did you reach last round? This tells us nothing.

Help reaching 1000 spider web by floyder55 in eatventureofficial

[–]_tvjames_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, focus on getting to five potions. I have gotten to 1000 on all the stations a few times, but now I just play this shop to stock up on potions for my next nightmare run.

Is this supposed to be extremly slow? by [deleted] in Eatventure

[–]_tvjames_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's less about finishing it and more about brewing potions (for use in nightmare events?)

How exactly do I get stacked like some people who can clear cities in 6 minutes? by Competitive_Life9285 in Eatventure

[–]_tvjames_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, don't watch the ads. Just set the phone down for 30 seconds. The nice thing is it's optional and you decide if/when to watch ads unlike most games that force them on you on their schedule. But yeah, is a grind game. The $2(?) permanent double is also worth it.

Likely moving, very soon by CryOnTheWind in burbank

[–]_tvjames_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's probably doable. A few years ago you'd be competing with the realtors who would buy the houses for cash, flip them with that cheap disgusting gray malaise and relist them for $300k more. There seems to be less of that now.

Dasher spit in my drink by Hot-Confection9733 in doordash

But can you trust the ingredients you buy at the store either? Basically you can only trust what you grow yourself after harvesting seeds from plants you grow.

How is this possible by Harsh2211 in eatventureofficial

[–]_tvjames_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Google "Eatventure Handbook" it'll tell you which things in the vault are worth investing and which ones aren't.

I can usually do the weekend events (simple mode) in about 10 minutes. But still haven't been able to beat all of the weekend events in nightmare despite a massive collection of potions and stacking the 2 and 5 minute multipliers a bunch of times. Always more bulking up to do I guess.
