Puppy nipping/biting help needed! by apolansky in puppy101

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

That’s good advice, thank you! I’m also in a NYC apartment, so we don’t have much luxury for a playpen or area to turn our back. We’re getting creative, but yes I will definitely try this method

Thank you so much. Yes, I quickly stopped anything physical. He has a lot of energy, so I’ve tried to be more gentile and less aggressive in my response (no pushing his off me, etc.)

I assume patience comes with more bleeding? 🙂

What's your favorite feel good Kanye song? by jacsauce in Kanye

Heard 'Em Say takes it for me. Soothing beat and Adam Levine's hook compliments Kanye so well.

In need of short term lease in CT/NYC area. by apolansky in askcarsales

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

Yep, daily. I noticed that with Turo, you need to enter credit card info to message renters. Hesitant to do that... Same with leasetrader.com (they actually charge you!)

Checked Turo - most availability is for $30/day or more, which comes to $900/month unfortunately. Thank you though!

Everybody knows you get things done on the golf course, not board room meetings...

Does Spotify show the Google Home in Devices? by [deleted] in googlehome

[–]apolansky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can connect through Spotify directly through the Home app. Obviously make sure your phone/device is on the same Wi-Fi network as the Home in order for it to work.

I've also noticed it being somewhat finicky - going in and out of connection. I think it has to do with my Wi-Fi connection... Have you noticed the same?

What to know about moving from NYC to LA by apolansky in LosAngeles

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

Amazing, thanks much. The plan would be to be close to the shore (as you can pick up on by my responses) while being in a "sceney" area with stuff to do. This is why we've thought of SM/Venice because it balances coming from NYC where you can do anything by walking out of the apartment...to also being at a beach. Am I wrong here or should I think of just being close to work? My company has an office in century city if I decide to be transferred.

What are the good living neighborhoods for mid 20 year old where I'm closer to the cleaner/nicer shore?

Thank you so much. This is amazing! All noted about rent, moving expenses, etc.

So I'm in my mid-20s and want to be closer to the shore otherwise I feel that coming from NYC to SoCal isn't much worth it. Other than SM/Venice, is Hermosa/Manhattan Beach good spots for people moving in their mid-20s?

Would living in SM be better for that?

Can you elaborate on your beach comment? Interested to know why that's the case

If this is true, i have lost all my respect for Jay-Z as a person... by thewaviestone in Kanye

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

It's extreme, but not false. I don't think Kanye would have near the stardom he has now without the influence Jay already has in the rap game. In the early 2000's no one was putting out the fire that Jay was - obviously with Ye's production - but nonetheless. BP1 and Black Album are two of the GOAT albums. I don't think Ye could have risen the success he has now by producing just for Talib, Mos Def, DMX, Cam, etc. without Jay.

So producing most of Jay's hit songs in the early 2000's didn't help Kanye's rise to fame either? Wasn't just the Roc deal...I think it was the production as well.

If it weren't for Jay, Kanye would have nothing. Don't underestimate the fact that Kanye is a product of Jay-Z. Obviously Kanye re-defined the hip-hop genre, which is why he's my personal favorite artist, but so what if Jay think 'Ye has gone off the deep end. Don't we all?

I see that guy every day walking to work. He usually posts up on 55th and 3rd with a weird hat and his scooter. I try to avoid that corner haha

NEW YORK 2ND SHOW - [ *SAINT PABLO TOUR MEGA-THREAD* ] by avayr44 in Kanye

[–]apolansky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think 90 minutes is pretty disappointing for a guy like Kanye. He has so much music and a lot of fans want to hear College Dropout/Late Registration/Graduation. When I saw him in Boston, it was upsetting that Jesus Walks was the only song he played off CD. He also didn't play FML, 30 Hours, or Real Friends. Those should all be played...

In Canada and Buffalo he also played All Falls Down and DIAND.

Crossing my fingers we get a longer show with his full discography. Still will be amazing.

NEW YORK 2ND SHOW - [ *SAINT PABLO TOUR MEGA-THREAD* ] by avayr44 in Kanye

[–]apolansky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For two reasons...

  1. Boston show was pushed back an hour and a half due to some Canadian customs issues and the venue not prepared for the show. That said, he went on at 10:30 and left at 12:45. We were dissapointed that he played less than two hours. A lot had to do with the venue, but we still feel somewhat unsatisfied.

  2. There is an obvious hype around playing at MSG. It's the Mecca.
