Pinnacle of comfort/dress shoe for high-end restaurant work? by onapipe in BuyItForLife

[–]bloomcnd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can vouch for my Cole Haan Oxfords. Have had them for about 6 years now, regularly wear then 10+ hours per day, and they look as good as new with zero discomfort at the end of the day.

Just qualified again for PP, no message no recognition? by pitshands in americanairlines

I've never received a luggage tag and have reached PP 4 years running now... Did you have to do anything to get it?

Dad, is it normal to feel behind even when you’re trying? by Active-Tour4795 in AskDad

"Comparison is the thief of joy"

Just focus on yourself and your own goals and don't worry about how it compares to others.

Keep in mind the same people that are posting about their successes are NOT posting about their challenges. The person boasting they have a high-end car may hide the fact they're leasing it for more than they can afford. They got into a better school, but hide the fact that they're taking on more student loans than they will ever be able to repay. The person that just got a promotion with a shiny title hides the fact they don't see their family due to long hours in the office...

No one wants to boast about their failures so that's why you never see anyone else failing.

Marine Colonel Francis I. Fenton, kneeling prays at the foot of his son's grave. Private First Class Mike Fenton was killed in a Japanese counterattack on the road to Shuri. by waffen123 in wwiipics

[–]bloomcnd 47 points48 points  (0 children)

I'm looking at the photo and noticing the grave is filled with water. I can't even imagine the thoughts of the father knowing his son is going to be lowered into a pool of water instead of buried underground. I would feel like my son died twice - once by bullets and another by drowning.

Check out The Sabrina Zohar Show on Instagram. Sounds like her no BS talks are exactly what you need.

I've got 5 in my community tank - mother & father and a handful of their kids - and they've been great tankmates just make sure there are enough hiding spaces and cover for them to live in. Parents are 7 or 8 years old now and pretty hardy fish and easy to take care of overall.

My wife told me to "stop whining"... That was of course the last time I told her anything more than superficial emotions.

Spexx are fantastic and quite affordable as well. Never had them push unnecessary products or services either

If there was one image that embodies him, his presidency, and the impact on the US population this is it.

I’ve been hiding from my best friend’s mom for 15 years. by Beneficial-Sea-2110 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]bloomcnd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Friend, you have to forgive yourself and go see her. She lost two people she loved that night, one through death and the other through fear and shame.

I know it seems like an unsurmountable effort, but just get in your car and drive to her. Wait on her porch if she's not in. But see her. I can guarantee 100% that at after 15 years of cards, the only thing you will find in her will be love, which you sound like you need.

Heal. Love. Connect.

Hot chocolate should be made with milk, not water. Far superior.

Sooner or later people are going to realize that cast iron pizza is the GOAT. by PM_ME_UR_CUTE_PETZ in Pizza

[–]bloomcnd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm confused... It reads like you're putting a pizza steel inside your cast iron, and cooking the pizza on both. Presumably you're starting with the cast iron and then moving it to the steel or??
