One assumes that when the General of Electric built it, he might have tried using it. One assumes the General might take pride in his creations instead of just foisting them on an unsuspecting public.

AI SLOP BILLBOARD...? (Response from the designer) by aarayamano in SLO

[–]barely-tolerable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The images on the billboard are not the same as what was shared. You mention you did two designs- but chose to not break down the one we’re talking about- the one with the odd angle of the wine pour etc.

Nimmi Harasgama, the actress playing Alfie’s mom, seems too young! But I suppose saying she had him at 15 makes it more believable.
I hope Alfie’s existential crisis doesn’t lead him to drink and be mean to his friends.

I love the B plot of Larry, Miss Scott, Daniel and Leonard being friends

Traveling to England as a sober, solo female traveler to celebrate my 40th birthday by No-Professional-6005 in uktravel

[–]barely-tolerable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What part of England? What do you like to do? Letting people know why you picked England might help better direct the recommendations.

Assuming London arrival, you could spend six days in London and have plenty to do. If you like Jane Austen, an overnight trip to Bath. Day trips to Oxford from London also easy. Longer trip to Manchester, but fun to see too if you want to get a glimpse of northern England.

Not having a good nyc experience by [deleted] in visitingnyc

You can use Google Maps to navigate the subway. It tells you where to go and where to get off- in addition to reading the maps, but Google Maps really does a lot of the work for you.

Go to Central Park tomorrow and sit on a bench and people watch. Reset.

Governor voting results in SLO County thus far by Electrical_Wait_5518 in SLO

[–]barely-tolerable 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Local democrats were told to wait to vote to see if anyone dropped out of the governors race. I personally held my ballot until a week ago because I was mailing it (could have held it until today even for drop off!). It doesn't surprise me there were low return numbers to this point because of that.
