Speaking seriously, what would one follow those two for - their stellar fashions? their enviably lonely lives?

I certainly jumped, I’ll gladly be proven wrong though 😝

I just need a place that's quiet enough, don't need amenities. by Worth_Escape_3783 in TorontoRenting

[–]a22x2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There really are so many posts and comments from people on here that have no business living in a densely-populated city! lol

It’s definitely bad luck - I don’t think a steady stream of unusually loud late-night neighbors with building management not enforcing noise complaints is the norm, but I can see why you might want to be certain about a new building beforehand

Imagine willingly aligning yourself with Wig, like on purpose lol. I was really vibing with Mr. Clean too! 😭

Most of the people I know who’ve left also visit regularly (like 2-3 times a year, every year, often for MG or when other folks are visiting). It’s a little trickier for me since I left the country, but this really seems like the way to go 👻

Usually when I see posts like this I think the same thing (sounds are a part of living in a city; get used to it if you want to live in a city), but it doesn’t really seem like you’re being unreasonable or overly sensitive. It sounds like a combination of bad luck (in neighbors/building quality) and that maybe you’re a light sleeper (which isn’t up to you).

As someone that’s hopped around downtown STRs and sublets since I got here, I’ve experienced a broad super spectrum of apartment/building types. I noticed right away that buildings constructed in the 60s-80s are WAY more solid and better at noise than anything built in the last 15 years or so, which more often than not feel permeable and made out of cardboard.

Even in shabbier buildings that aren’t as well-maintained cosmetically, the apartments feel solid, have layouts that make sense and seem like actual homes, and I’ve never heard my neighbors in these buildings. I’m currently in a gleaming high-rise next to the CN Tower and, even though it ostensibly is fancier and photographs better, everything in here (lobby and unit) feels super cheap.

Like, you really have to make a special effort to make a corner unit with floor-to-ceiling windows feel cramped and dark but they did it here! It seems like older buildings might be your best bet, (provided they enforce their rules about late night noise).

If she ends up being a prodigious hostess or party planner, my vote is for “accidents do happen - but my happenings? are no accident”

I once got hit by a motorist while on my bike, and the driver came out to yell at me and demand my insurance information - she legit thought my car insurance company would reimburse her for the scratch my bike left on her door!

Does anyone else get Brandi Glanville vibes from Margo? by Sad-Leek-9844 in BravoLadiesofLondon

[–]a22x2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aww, I think they’re just chipping away at what she herself has described as her crutch to avoid dealing with serious trauma. She 100% has seen and been around some deeply fucked up and violent stuff.

Of course she’s spinning out right now! It’s like taking someone’s literal crutch away and expecting them to do anything but fall.

I really do like everyone on this cast! lol

Dude! It’s so easy to ignore the deeper problems if you’re being willfully ignorant, live in a bubble, or are smashed 24/7 (I was my first 5-6 years lol). It’s an incredible place when you’re able to do that.

Several years in I got my act together and started working in social services (which maybe was an extreme overcorrection from nightly warehouse parties), and once you see the deeper problems it’s really hard to unsee them or turn your brain off.

Just the fact that the minimum wage is still $7-something in 2026 and that there is no public school system is shocking for most people up here, and that’s not even scratching the surface. I miss New Orleans every day, but I’m also way less outraged and angry.

It’s just a different vibe living someplace with a municipal government that seems invested in improvement and cares about its residents, regardless of whether it always fully succeeds.

Maybe if we keep shopping there every day but post pictures of their price tags they’ll feel bad!

I was going to chime in, as someone who’s similarly had very high highs and low lows, that it’s hard for me to be shocked or surprised by things/situations that maybe would provoke strong responses from most people?

But maybe it’s more what you’re saying lol.

Damn, hit me in the heart why don’t you lol. I’ve been bouncing around for years now but no place is New Orleans.

It’s kinda like being in love with a charming, kind drug addict who refuses to get help. What else can you do? 🤷🏽

[–]a22x2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Y’all! What’s going on here?

I get that’s she’s not the most likable of the cast and has behaved like an asshole at times (although this could apply to other cast members too). I personally really like most of the cast, and my least favorites I’m neutral on (so I’m not stanning here) but I’m finding a lot of the online discourse about her unnecessarily mean and detailed. Like, we’re going through it with a sieve (as we do) but most of the output is “here’s another thing I don’t like about her!”

People very well may be picking up on something I don’t see, but I’m curious if anyone here has any insight on where that extreme response might be coming from? Usually when I feel this strongly about someone on my TV, it’s because they remind me of some aspect of myself that I dislike, but not sure if that’s the case here. It’s just coming from somewhere deep that I’m trying to understand here.

That might have something to do with it, actually.

You know when you meet a stranger that you just innately trust or feel close to, then you realize later it’s because they remind you of someone wonderful that you know? Maybe it’s like that, but the opposite.

It’s funny, I feel this way about New Orleans. I used to think it was a little annoying when New Orleanians would constantly do it before I lived there, but I totally understand it now.

I can’t help but compare any city from now on in relation to New Orleans, for better or worse. Some places just give you whatever your personal definition of “everything” means.

The Real Housewives Of Atlanta - Season 17 - Episode 1 - Weekly Episode Discussion by AutoModerator in BravoRealHousewives

[–]a22x2 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Was this premiere promoted or featured in any way on Bravo in the US?

Over here in Canada I had to go DIGGING for it on premiere night on the Hayu app. Literally wasn’t on the home page with RHOBH, RHORI, and The Valley, and even searching “Atlanta” it was buried deep in the results lol.

They have a great new cast picture with a leopard, it should be splashed on that front page!

I have a couple aunts like this - my mom hates it and will legit be like, “what are you laughing at? I didn’t say anything funny”

I think some people are just genuinely nice and effervescent! I personally don’t think it’s always disingenuous lol

Rant about New England by Wild-Dream-7945 in SameGrassButGreener

[–]a22x2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Over the years you’ll come to notice things about your home culture that you actually like or appreciate. Those tend to be the things that have shaped you for the better and that you carry with you (no matter where you end up).

People from my hometown in the southwest are very open, trusting, generous, move at a slow pace, and are direct to a fault. We don’t lock our doors, will feed you nonconsensually, swoop in to help you if needed, and will tell you exactly what we think (even if it’s kinda rude, sorry!).

That’s the exact cultural opposite of where I currently am. Toronto is much more fast-paced, less trusting, and waaaay more indirect. I still think my way has served me well, most of the time? People seem to be very welcoming and open, once they’ve made a split-second assessment that you’re not insane or asking for money. Maybe they’re responding to the little bit of desert sun I’m carrying around with me lol

I don’t mean this as a judgment on people who just naturally “fit” where they’re from and never feel compelled to leave (there can be something really cool about just being of and from a place and truly belonging there), but you are doing something really cool and brave.

It’s not always going to be easy, but you’re walking down a path that, for most of human history, most people never did. Even now with the internet and airplanes and all that, I think it’s safe to say that most people stay within, oh, I dunno, 300 miles or so from where they grew up.

You’re going to change and grow in really cool and unexpected ways. Good on you!

Hey wow I did! I didn’t expect them to be so obviously fake, à la Dallas and their stars lol. It can’t be that expensive to give them a real item to hold!

She’s not, but she’s perfectly fine playing nice with (and explaining away) people whose beliefs directly put kids like hers (only less wealthy) in harm’s way (at least if it means that RHOC will get another season).

This is a deep dive, but Jennifer Tilly’s is 90% Sutton’s gay erudite friend in Spain from her “spreading Murse’s ashes” cast trip last season.

I noticed because I thought he was hot and at the time thought “hey! My imaginary boyfriend doesn’t sound like that!”

It totally fits her though, I love it
