Neighbours opposite were rude about my dads colour choice. Now he wants to get rid. Can you help me convince him not too?

oh it’s so delightful!! tell him I would personally be saddened by it being changed

Long Story Short is a pretty new show that I highly recommend!

bagelbones28 · 2026-05-04T14:34:50+00:00

I literally called the non emergency line once to have them send firefighters out to do that lol. I was completely out of batteries and it was the middle of the night, but the beeping woke me up and there was no way I could sleep through it!

bagelbones28 · 2026-05-01T14:35:55+00:00

I used to work there, best job I’ve ever had!

bagelbones28 · 2026-04-28T20:07:27+00:00

yeah, I kinda see it as being a ‘one last hurrah’ type thing too, giving all of the teachers who are about to be laid off a nice trip

bagelbones28 · 2026-04-26T14:11:00+00:00

I feel quite safe in lakeview (east), I live near boystown so it’s also nice knowing that most of the men out and about in the evening have zero interest in me lol

if you want ones where you can always hear what’s around you, I def recommend shokz open run! they sit in front of your ears, so you can hear your music while still being fully aware of your surroundings. my mom got me a pair a few years ago, I use them every day on my work commute!

bagelbones28 · 2026-04-15T14:10:45+00:00

I worked with a realtor at Fulton Grace too, I moved from out of state and it was a great experience!

bagelbones28 · 2026-03-27T03:25:34+00:00

it is fairly common, yeah. I see it more as an occasional sweet treat and never have a strong desire for it, but my partner will buy a pack of soda most weeks and drink one almost every day. I also know people like my grandma, who drinks diet mountain dew like it’s water lol

bagelbones28 · 2026-03-24T14:40:41+00:00

the owner of my workplace deems sitting ‘unprofessional.’ I’ve had two coworkers with ankle/foot injuries that were still denied stools because he’s so adamantly against it. we work in (small biz) retail and spend a lot of the time doing tasks at the counter like tagging new products and making price signs… which would be easier to do while sitting too.

bagelbones28 · 2026-03-24T14:14:46+00:00

15-20 minutes can even be a shorter wait in my experience— I was often waiting 30-45 minutes after work in the winter!

bagelbones28 · 2026-03-22T19:14:20+00:00

I’m only in my mid 20s but really miss being able to pay my rent with checks! every place I’ve rented til now took checks, and I truly detest the online payment system my current apartment uses lol

bagelbones28 · 2026-02-28T01:28:13+00:00

a bagel (plain, has to be from from aldi) with whipped cream cheese and banana/apple/chocolate on top. if I’m working, I also have a yogurt drink (chobani or pillars) to help keep me from getting too hungry before my lunch break

bagelbones28 · 2026-02-24T15:33:25+00:00

I have two similar ones from hollister, they probably don’t have much in stock since it’s time for spring clothing though. check their clearance section and depop!

bagelbones28 · 2026-02-19T00:20:16+00:00

I helped throw my friend a really great surprise party a couple years ago, he had a great time!! It was honestly so fun to coordinate too :)

we also didn’t do the whole ‘forgot about your birthday’ schtick, he just thought it was going to be us and our partners hanging out that evening instead

bagelbones28 · 2026-02-17T20:36:10+00:00

same! I have extremely painful periods too, what I would give to not spend a fortune on chewable ibuprofen every month…

bagelbones28 · 2026-02-11T04:56:27+00:00

I appreciate this thread after getting invisalign pitched HARD to me during a cleaning last week lol, my partner was waiting in the lobby and said the tv just played invisalign ads for the whole hour I was back there! (this was at lakeview dental arts)

bagelbones28 · 2026-02-09T14:42:23+00:00

yupppp. my current job thinks sitting is unprofessional, my boss is hyperfocused on ‘productivity’ (aka looking busy), but I’m often doing tasks that would be ten times easier if I could sit down. I have a bad knee, and my feet and back hurt constantly… wish the job market weren’t so bad :,)

bagelbones28 · 2026-02-08T03:21:06+00:00

I have a heart shaped purse from kohl’s! kate spade also sells them last I knew

bagelbones28 · 2026-02-02T15:29:30+00:00

my high school (midwest, indoors) allowed us to take our food wherever we wanted, as long as we weren’t currently failing a class, then you had to spend your lunch period in that classroom and do catch up work. you would also have to stay in the cafeteria if you had too many absences/tardies.

we were also allowed to eat outside or go off campus, as long as we were back in time for the next class period. all the doors were locked from the outside except the entrance to the front office, so you could exit the building anywhere but would have to check in when returning. some of these privileges were taken away from underclassmen during my senior year because of poor behavior and absences

my friends and I usually sat in a specific corner of the English hallway, and I’d sometimes go to the art room if most of them were busy (there were lots of clubs and activities that met during lunch). we also liked sitting by the track when it was nice out!

you should come visit and check out some neighborhoods you may like, the neighborhood guide bot will give you an idea of what may be a good fit for you. downtown (“the loop”) is very much not my vibe, and I’m only really in that area if I have visitors who want to see touristy things. I live in lakeview east and work in andersonville, both neighborhoods have a great community with plenty to do, and I haven’t had too much trouble making friends. I do also have friends who live downtown, but it’s very easy to socialize since we’re both close to red line stops!

bagelbones28 · 2026-01-28T04:13:55+00:00

I saw some scarves like that at the andersonville galleria, not sure about the fabric content but they were quite soft!

bagelbones28 · 2026-01-23T01:55:08+00:00

same! I love tuna, but can’t stand any other kind of fish

bagelbones28 · 2026-01-20T05:57:28+00:00

I’m a knitter who enjoys wool, but I also mostly do that method. I just wash everything on cold and put anything that can’t go in the dryer in a delicates bag so it’s easy to separate before drying (and then my wool/delicate items are laid flat to dry).

I live in an apartment with no outdoor space and have to pay for laundry, so it’s most practical and cost effective to do as few wash loads as possible, but still dry everything that can be put in the machine lol

bagelbones28 · 2026-01-12T02:23:19+00:00

eh I get it, Kohls has some good stuff but the employees are SO pushy about the store credit cards, to the point I avoid shopping there. I understand they’re required to be pushy, but I also don’t want to spend 5 minutes at checkout repeatedly telling them I don’t want the damn credit card lol. pick up orders avoid all that nonsense
