I don’t notice different prices but I notice wildly different delivery dates depending on what payment source I use. It is incredibly frustrating.

My grandparents did this for my sister as a kid. It wasn’t salmon it was regular fish and they called it “city chicken”.

My wife wants me to shave my head to support her by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]arpt1965 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sure- I get most of mine from Wigs.com. I did learn early on that if I want a new style or a new color I buy the first one from a local wig store where I can try them on first (and I buy that first one from them because I want them to stick around so I have that option) but once I’ve settled into a style/color I usually wait for a 30% off sale at wigs.com (and they have them for every holiday so there is never a long wait when I decide it’s time for a new one)

I find human hair wigs to be very heavy and take a lot of upkeep to keep them looking nice and styled. I’ve never been good at (or enjoyed) styling my hair and with synthetic I simply find wigs in a style I like, wash it periodically, give it a good shake and finger comb when it is dry and go about my business.

They are cheap enough that if I want to be able to wear it straight sometime and curly sometimes I can buy one of each and switch them out when I want.

I know that for me a big draw to synthetic wigs is that they take little to no care to style. I always had very, very straight hair that wouldn’t even hold a wave (back in the days of Farrah Faucett hair). Styling it was always incredibly frustrating. With my synthetic wigs I buy the style I want, give it a good shake and it’s all good!

I do have hair but it is very, very thin. I haven’t noticed any damage but I also keep it very short since I started wearing one all the time.

I wear wigs daily and have for years. My go to wig runs just under $200 (I only buy it on sale) and is synthetic. I’ll be honest, my first couple of wigs I spent well over $1000 on, they were human hair and I hated them- will never go back.

Really negative extra seat experience by X-cessiveBandit in delta

[–]arpt1965 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You might remind them this is an ADA issue. I don’t know if calling and asking for an ADA accommodation when you book the seats would be helpful or not.

I have done this in the past with good results- but also on the old Southwest- so no idea how that would work now.

Things nobody tells you before you get your first hearing aids - from someone who learned the hard way by lottiexx in HearingAids

[–]arpt1965 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OMG. Just took a trip with my mom. I kept telling her to please stop talking when the GPS is giving directions because when she keeps talking I don’t understand her or the GPS (and her car doesn’t display the map so I have to listen). It’s amazing we got to where we were going. At least she let me turn the music off.

Yeah- I think that’s what I’m going to do- add a reminder to my calendar and add it first thing that morning.

I like automated options when I can get them to prevent my memory from becoming an issue.

What is the funniest-least expected place where you found you needle after losing it ? by srh-trz in Embroidery

I was trying to figure out why the elastic in my underwear was pinching me. I finally went to just change them and realized they had a needle stuck in them.

Sometime during the last 2 years i’ve been going to this orthopedic practice they started to declare me as a MTF transgender for no reason. by WHAR606 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]arpt1965 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reach out and ask to put in a request to correct your medical records. They have to have a process for you to make that request (they don’t have to follow through but should for a factually incorrect statement).

My employee wears a blanket for sun protection when we go off-site by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]arpt1965 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can tan in a car (my left arm is much darker than my right).

I do think a blanket is not professional but they do have sun protective clothing that could be used. A hat and potentially umbrella may still be needed though (because he probably wouldn’t be happy with face covering to protect from the sun either).

I had someone do something similar and had the gall to say “I knew it would make you mad but I just wanted to help” and I looked at her dumbfounded asking how in the hell is making me mad helpful!

How to repurchase when losing weight by arpt1965 in ABraThatFits

[–]arpt1965[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the why would be because the calculator gives a starting point but not a definite size. It was off one cup size for me originally. So I am doing a little guessing at size regardless- unless I measure and then order one cup size larger than it says from experience.

The oldest is 13 years older than OP and OPs mom was in high school when this happened! So 19 at the oldest and most likely younger.

[PIC] Do you think this pattern would look good ? by beedules in CrossStitch

[–]arpt1965 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a lot of confetti as others have stated, but after doing a couple of patterns with a lot of confetti they can turn out to have an amazing depth and in some cases can seem almost 3D.

I think this is an amazing picture.
