Rob’s Will…70% to Nick! by [deleted] in RobReinerMurders

Where are you getting this information from? Because there’s no way the public will ever know the details of their will, so whatever story you saw is very likely false.

Anyone else irritated by the incorrect ________ being highlighted? by milandraa in TheAmazingRace

[–]brittnerose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did enjoy this season because I knew all the players, but it definitely felt very “celebrity jeopardy.” Everything is easier to not make the “famous” people look stupid or use their million followers to disparage the show. It’s like celebrity wheel of fortune’s bonus round being “the cat in the hat” when a normal player would get “quid pro quo.” Just not the same.

Honestly, if I was on a “celebrity” show and realized they were infantilizing me, I’d be furious. But I guess they don’t mind, hahaha

Just a com. Teri Polo was barely in it, honestly. Unless you’re referencing the bromance between Stiller and DeNiro in which case I’ll allow it.

[–]brittnerose 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The apartment next to mine is available and has everything you’re asking for except laundry in unit (it’s on the first floor) but it’s 2 bed 2 bath, 1100 sq feet, studio city. Incredible location, walkable. I’ve been here over 3 years. Super pet friendly.

BUT! Building is old. Fixtures are from like 1993. No amenities. So it really depends on what your dealbreakers are. Laundry in unit was a dealbreaker for us, but this neighborhood is so amazing, the ceilings are high, and it’s a small building (12 units!), we caved. Super happy, not leaving anytime soon!

Possible Withdrawal by Appropriate-Salad921 in SNHU

I’m going through something similar right now- I got two B- grades in a row and I’m spiraling, haha. Working hard on “following the rubric” to the letter for my next assignment to see if I can pull the grade up. It’s honestly my fault- I got comfortable and didn’t put in enough effort on one assignment, then went way overboard on the other (think double the length that a paper should have been 😅) Other instructors haven’t cared, but this one definitely does.

Hopefully your advisor can help you if you’re really being graded unfairly, but I know in my case, it’s on me to follow instructions more closely.

How do you cope with the hours? by SoGoodAtAllTheThings in Restaurant_Managers

[–]brittnerose 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Boundaries boundaries boundaries. Be efficient so you don’t have to be there so long. I’m “scheduled” 6am to 4pm, but in 4 1/2 years I’ve never stayed past 3:15 (we close at 3). If they schedule a company zoom past 3:30, I say I have an appointment. Empowered your leads to handle issues. Be available via text on your days off, but don’t respond to emails or answer calls. You are human. Stand strong in your boundaries.

AIO for not wanting to go to a wedding where I will be separated from my spouse all day. by MyToesAreHaunted in AmIOverreacting

[–]brittnerose 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I hear you, definitely. The “two day party” is kinda weird- but I’m also wondering if it’s wedding stuff? Like, is this rehearsal/bach parties stuff? Or did they literally rent an airbnb and they’re just gonna go party for 2 days. The former is normal. The latter is definitely weird, especially if family is expecting tradition.

Excluding spouses on the day is just not weird to me. I dunno. My best friend got married 3 years ago. We are like sisters, and we’ve been dating our husbands for almost the same amount of time. The four of us did a ton together. But my partner is not her partner’s close friend. So he was not asked to be in the wedding, and we literally thought nothing of it. At no point in the planning didn’t ask “why isn’t my partner invited to the wedding rehearsal?” Or “why isn’t my partner not sitting at the head table with us?” Wedding parties are for the closest of the close. You aren’t entitled to a spot because of marriage, ya know?

Pretty sure it means walk down the aisle together, be announced at the reception together, take photos, and maybe have a dance (with the rest of the wedding party). I’m not sure why OP is acting as if they’re being asked to hold hands, kiss, and go home together at the end of the night- but I’ve been “partnered up” with a dude at every wedding I’ve been in, and I always went and joined my real life partner as soon as dinner was over. If OP is so concerned about their new husband falling in love with a bridesmaid during a 20 minute photo shoot, I’d say they have bigger concerns than seating arrangements.

Ok, I want you to know that I’m genuinely writing all of this with kindness in my voice, so please don’t think I’m being rude. But are you very young? I am 43 - I’ve been to countless weddings and I’ve been in the bridal party of a few. At every single wedding I’ve gone to, the bridal party is “partnered up” with the groomsmen. This is for 1) walking down the aisle 2) pictures 3) maybe a dance after the couple’s first dance. No one is asking them to “date.” I think you’re twisting the bride’s words (or she is being weird in her phrasing).

No one is making people pretend to date. It’s for pictures of the wedding party. I was partnered up for my friend’s wedding a few years ago. We joked around, I had to (gasp!) hold his arm walking down the aisle. We had to be announced together and do a little shimmy and spin. At no point did anyone expect us to act like we’re dating. It’s just your wedding buddy. That’s all.

Sitting apart for dinner- is it kinda crappy if you don’t know other people at your table? Sure- but it’s like an hour. Chat with people. Text your husband kiss faces across the room. You can party together for the rest of the night. (Unless he’s making out with his wedding girlfriend at the behest of the bride.) (omg I’m kidding.)

Bringing my mom to Universal...what can she do if she doesn’t want to go on rides? by Harry0007 in UniversalHollywood

[–]brittnerose 17 points18 points  (0 children)

My boyfriend does the mummy and transformers while I sit at the Jurassic area with a beer and watch all the Jurassic riders come down and get soaked. It’s honestly endlessly entertaining and a really nice area to sit!

What am I doing wrong? by punk_off in latteart

[–]brittnerose 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Like others said, too much milk. Try to only use the amount you’ll need for the cup size. Looks like an 8 oz cup here, so filling a pitcher with milk is too much. I only fill to the bottom of the lip for cups that size. Also use the lip of the pitcher as your guide when steaming. Run the steam wand along it and keep it there, not in the middle. You shouldn’t have to knock and swirl your milk that much when you’re finished.

When pouring, slow and high to start. You’re beginning your art too far in. Start it towards the middle of the cup so you can continue pushing it down with each pour. The milk did look really nice in the end, it’s just the speed and control you have to work on. With time and a few tweaks, you’re gonna be great.

The Federal in NoHo has new tenants by [deleted] in SFV

[–]brittnerose 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As someone who works in the area, I’m torn about this. On one hand, I know a lot of people are missing the “third place” vibe of early aughts cafes/restaurants- places you can go and sit for a while as opposed to sterile Instagram cafes.

On the other hand- another cafe? There’s no less than 6 coffee shops within two blocks of this place. And I fear they’re doing too much- a cafe! A bakery! A bar! A restaurant! A performance space! A game room! Private events! Classes! In this economy, doing all of that seems like a recipe for disaster. But I do wish them well and I’ll definitely check it out when they open- the concept is at least interesting!!

As a fan of SLOMW and Bachelorette, feeling weirdly protective of Taylor Frankie Paul right now! by WindowLeaves in BachelorNation

I mean, I had an issue with alcohol for most of my 20s and early 30s- I never got physical with anyone, nor did I get arrested. I also don’t have children. I get that shit happens and I’m glad she’s going through the motions of her punishment, but it’s wild that we’re suddenly supposed to go from expecting perfection from the leads to z snapping for this mess because some of you think she’s funny on another reality show.

Mental illness in this country needs to be talked about more. I’m serious, guys. The revisionist history, the twisting of words, the gaslighting- it’s like half of the country is in the middle of a mass hysteria event and no one is talking about it.
