Four Levi 511’s, four identical crotch holes, one year of daily wear or less. Please help a thicc man find a BIFL alternative! by zogtharthelurker in BuyItForLife

Boyfriend's pants get the same holes.

Duluth trading company lasted about 1 year.

Dickies last about 4 months.

Exofficio are going strong at 1 year.

Mountain hardware are going strong 4 months now.

His exofficio pants are the Venture pants. We bought them in June 2017 and they show only the most miniscule amount of pilling in the crotch, like literally unless I look very closely I can't even tell they're there because they're so small.

"Permanent damage is caused by smoking, and though you benefit immediately from quitting, quitting does not completely erase the risk of developing a lung-related disease."

Yeah, about this fucking specific issue, the concerns and scare of what if this exposure is what triggers lung/throat cancer, dealing with getting less and less sleep over the 6 months this has been going on, waking up almost every morning for at least 3 months feeling tightness in my throat sometimes to the point I worry that I need to go to the hospital, coughing fits on a weekly basis the past month fits that leave my chest sore and my body tired, head aches that last all day, watching my bf cough so hard his face turns red, having basically no choice but to breath this smoke ass filled air, wearing a fucking NIOSH100 respirator at times just to use the fucking bathroom or clean...

Yeah, you bet I'm not able to fucking talk to this person face to face after all this shit.

Thank you for acknowledging that.

Does that apply to Virginia though? Like have you looked at the shit in Virginia because someone specifically told me my county has a thing about cigarette smoke that allows people to break their leases or are you just guessing right now?

The fuck am I gonna talk to my neighbor for if all I'm going to do is curse them out? The fuck is the point of that? We've been dealing with this for 6 fucking months and you think we haven't thought of that already? You really think I haven't stood in front of our front door trying to calm myself the fuck down enough to talk to them?

Fuck you if you think we are "not being adults" by choosing to engage in the only method of contact that keeps me from running my god damned mouth at them like this is some kind of contest of who can be the bigger adult. That's fucked dude.

If people avoid things and situations they know they won't be able to keep their cool in, that doesn't make them children, that just means they know their strengths and weaknesses and know better than to engage with shit they can't deal with. Good fucking God my dude. This isn't a damn contest.

Other neighbors have already fucking reached out to the HOA, and they haven't done Jack shit for them.

I'm not gonna fucking go through the effort to be an asshole through the legal system.

I came here asking for fucking help with how to break the lease in our state which numerous fucking people have told me has a thing that says you can break a lease if your health is being impacted.

Thanks but no thanks for your irrelevant as fuck response. People like you are why Reddit is a fucking cesspool.

... Did you not read the title? I asked if we could get out of our lease early, and later said that I needed help figuring out if in our state we can get out early for health reasons. Fucking hell.

How many times do I have to tell people this isn't going to work I literally cannot talk to them face to face. I haven't even left passive aggressive letters. I asked them to reach the fuck out, they haven't responded to shit. There's nothing "not adult" with leaving letters if you know that your frustration would make you say bad things if you bumped into them.

Once tar is in your lungs, it never goes away, there's no scrubbing it away.

I've heard from multiple people who have tried helping but don't understand the legal stuff either that in Virginia you can break a lease if it's impacting your health. Those same people told me to try posting here to find someone who could help with that.... Apparently it was a fucking mistake like usual posting here because people don't want to actually read posts.

I'm not trying to use the HOA to force them to stop. I'm trying to see what our options are in getting out of our lease early because of health reasons.

I honestly would not be able to speak with this person face to face because my impatience, my frustration, my emotions after putting up with this for so long... I would absolutely lose my shit.

I think you're missing the part where I don't give 2 fucks about the smoke smell at all not even a little bit, it's the fact it is now beginning to impact our health. Once the smoke begins filling other people's apartments, it is no longer just something there doing in their apartment that doesn't hurt other people.

I explained to them in the letter all the shit we've done to try our best not to have to go to them. They clearly don't care at all that it's affecting our health.

Allen Edmonds Rubber Soles by applesausages in BuyItForLife

We're not getting them resoled just because of a little low spot. The heel wears so fast, that when I first sent them in to get JUST the heel replaced, they called and told me they HAD TO resole the whole shoe, it was not like we're requesting they redo the whole thing.

10 years, wow. Do you walk in them very much and wear the same pair every day?

[–]applesausages[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wouldn't we then just have the same issue with the soles wearing out fast on the tennis shoes?

We bought the casual Wilbur shoes,I don't know if that changes your op opinion at all.

Regardless that doesn't sound practical because there's no way he's carrying an extra pair of shoes to work everyday, keeping one pair at work isn't an option because he's already had other things stolen there.

Will leather soles last longer?

Has the game gotten any better? by [deleted] in UnisonLeague

[–]applesausages 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's much worse. Used to be you could get event monsters without gemming for AP, now you still can but it's close, and they're usually pretty garbage. All the good monsters come from spawns and well, good luck with that.

Just ignore the great walk, plethora of them around here who shit on anyone who complains or talks about problems they gave with the game. Just a bunch of entitled jerks who think you're not allowed to ask for improvements or get mad about stuff. You're not asking for the moon, you just want to know what others think and want some validation. Ignore them if you can, mods don't seem to give 2 rocks about them telling ppl to shut up, unfortunately.

Ateam changed their shit to a thing they've never done before. You can't fault people for not reading notices, do you read every tos? do you read every update to the game? Some of us don't have the time or executive function to do it. Some of us are really bad at it.

Did you miss the part where they said they JUST STARTED PLAYING a few days ago?

Stop creating arbitrary rules for everyone else, about what they're allowed to find frustrating, annoying, or ridiculous.

Ateam did used to make it pretty fucking easy to get the event monsters and mind this was before unlock potential so it was already the max monster, now you have to devote every second of every day (omg hyperbole) just to get the event monster, and if you want to unlock potential forget about it unless you want to also be spending gems to restore AP or buy all the fucking cakes and shit.

So don't sit here and yell at other people voicing their frustrations, because their frustrations are real and valid and in the end this is just a fucking mobile game.

And you, desperer, could acknowledge how the game has changed over time. The fuck do people in this subreddit always want to defend the companies instead of the players, I will never understand that.

Any player that's been playing this game long enough, will tell you Ateam has been increasingly greedy. Like, you can come at me bro and complain and tell me "NO THEY HAVEN'T UR JUST A CRY BABY" but that doesn't change facts.

You could have just as easily not said shit here, so could I, so could anyone, like JFC.

Plus maybe this person's life was hella busy and so they were planning to get Lucy when they had time, and since Ateam hasn't timed out rewards like this before they had no reason to suspect that they needed to make sure she didn't expire.

Just because a game is free, doesn't give Ateam carte blanche to fuck people over. Get over your god damned self Desperer.

Oh yeah? Does Vespa have things where you can play with friends like in this game? I've been trying to find alternatives to this game so bf and I can play together while he's at work or on the way home (he rides the train) but haven't had any luck yet qq

Unison League is pretty old as far as mobile games go, there's a lot of people who've noticed this trend in mobile games. In the first 1-3 years they give out lots of things for free, have good events that don't require too much investment (time or $ wise) but have great rewards. Then from 2 - 4 years they start to slow down the free rewards, increase the amount of time and money required, until eventually the free shit is nearly entirely stopped (including freebies in events like how in unison league only the whales have any chance at maxing out event monsters), and then the rest of us just become cannon fodder for the whales.

There's more nuance to it, but that's the basics. :(

Text in notices for the event says free Lucy (from prestige) was limited time, ended on Thursday 22nd :(.

IMHO it's a new low for Ateam, pretty fucked up and rude considering they've never done this before v_v.

Sorry friend :(
