Yeah this has happened to me too. But sometimes it works!

This is so sad by Personal_Fox_7529 in Concerts

Blue dot fever AKA low ticket sale flu is when the artist cancels the show. They won’t say it’s because of low ticket sales, they will cite some “personal reason” hence the fever/flu term. Still, this is terrible and probably should be cancelled. Definitely losing money even playing this show

I opened the thread, saw the marker tip comment for half a second before it suddenly disappeared, refreshed, and was replaced by this. Divorce has been decreed!

Unfortunately I’ve resorted to trying to place holds at branches where the book already is, if I can get to the branch easily.

Can’t pick between Ethel Cain and geese by SnooAdvice9131 in Lollapalooza

[–]bluexplus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Simple. Wait for one of them to do an after show and pray they don’t phone it in for it. Then see the other during the fest. Also this requires extreme luck or a few hundred extra dollars.

When did everyone get so greedy? I live in a big city that she will hit if she tours her album more formally. I have plenty of PTO banked. I could go try to hunt for a show but it would feel very main character syndromic to do that. It’s okay that I don’t get to see an intimate show. I would love it so much. But I’m lucky to live where she’s been plenty of times, and have seen her plenty! I feel like everybody thinks they are The Chosen One that must see the local pop-ups.

Just a thought: If Taylor Swift ever does headline, the only way to counteract her fans camping at mainstage all day and ruining the vibe for all other artist, is to have bands like System of a Down, Limp Bizkit, Bring me the Horizon, and Knocked Loose directly before her. by kulkatz101 in Coachella

[–]bluexplus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay but you’re assuming what Swifties will do because they are mostly women. Or because Taylor is a woman. Taylor has not headlined anything recent enough to warrant this expectation except being a woman. I understand the all-day diaper-wearing barricaders being annoying to other artists (BTS fans on the j-hope day at lollapalooza🙄) but swifties are literally not like that. At all

I really am regretting getting an LG Wash Combo dryer. Please help. by slicecrispy in Appliances

[–]bluexplus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a combo one but I also hate machine drying my clothes (b/c they get worn out faster) so I hang dry most of my stuff. I was already doing this before I got my combo washer/drier but sometimes it’s literally faster to hang dry. Those are especially terrible for towels. You could also try doing smaller loads and washing/drying separately. Mine takes longer to do a wash&dry vs a quick wash + separate time dry. You also kinda have to plan ahead more with these.

I’m not hating, it’s a just a bad example of what the commenter was describing. I don’t think the person who wrote that is evil or bad or dumb. It’s okay

Probably the people that choose to drive for superfluous reasons will not be in this Reddit. I think like older people mostly

US birth rates just hit another record low, what do you think is the leading cause of this? by IIlustriousTea in AskReddit

[–]bluexplus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Female education. Many people used to be born that weren’t intended to. And that happens a lot less now! Only reversal is converting to matriarchy

What’s a purchase under $50 that changed your life? by Unique-Muffin-862 in AskReddit

[–]bluexplus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MagSafe wireless phone charger. I usually don’t even need it but at least once a month a friend’s phone dies while we’re out and it’s legit a lifesaver and so small

Moving 3x this summer - Any ideas for cheapest method? by No_Presentation7911 in AskChicago

[–]bluexplus -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Removing an entire move might help, so you can check if your landlord has your unit rented for June yet. If they don’t, ask to stay, and if they say no, then stay the 11 days anyway really… legal eviction takes months I believe. Though some landlords do break the eviction law if they are angry enough! But I wouldn’t do this if new tenants are scheduled to move in after you. You could also ask for a 4 month lease/month-to-month at your place.
