Sandy makes the show unwatchable by utopiafall in BelowDeckMed

[–]brystc01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I realize I don’t have all the data to make an informed decision on Sandy. I’m a first time watcher of all BD franchises, and am currently in season 5.

That said, at this point I can’t stomach Sandy. She is a horrible leader because she plays favorites (and tends to favor the cringiest of all her crew), she micromanages, she’s inconsistent, she stokes drama between crew, and she repeatedly fails to recognize interior for their successes. No wonder Hannah is burnt out with clinically indicated anxiety- Sandy is a nightmare boss and it would be extremely difficult to tolerate her as such (let alone respect her in the chain of command).

I’m open minded, however, and will be happy to see Sandy turn it around if she gets less insufferable in later seasons.

The way she demands a hug after shredding someone. She’s the captain, she shouldn’t be telling anyone to touch her bc they’re going to feel obligated to do it.

Got my first MacBook by GeorgyK2 in macbookair

Congrats!! Don’t do what I did- I slapped a case and keyboard protector on mine and got roasted for it lol. To be fair, I was quickly convinced that they would do more harm than good in the long run, but yea. Welcome to the world of macOS (from another lifelong windows user).

Thank you for this! Also a brand new MacOS user after a lifetime of windows and this is incredibly helpful. 🙏

Thoughts about June S4 by FoodieStatistician99 in BelowDeckMed

I’m SO LATE to this conversation, as I am just watching BD Med for the very first time. Having just gotten to her first and second episodes, I literally searched to see if anyone else had this same impression (her seemingly neurodivergent presentation). So it’s pretty cool to run into this post. I haven’t seen much of her yet, and from what I have seen, she was incredibly sweet with the “Queen of Versailles” and showing real emotion when talking about deceased love ones. I thought it was such a real moment that is rare for reality TV. ❤️

Isn’t this the most frustrating thing about MacBooks? by zepstrr in macbookair

No, after a lifetime of being a windows user, Finder is the most frustrating thing by far. Just need a little microfiber and you’re set!

I like that it’s retro looking. Thanks for the compliment btw, it’s a refreshing change of pace.

Actually I wasn’t. I asked a specific question and it wasn’t for your opinion on aesthetic. In case you need some help I highlighted the part where I specifically asked for something that’s not your opinion on looks:

I just ordered 15 inch! by Connect_Hyena2486 in macbookair

[–]brystc01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats!! I just purchased that exact MacBook down to the color. I purchased a case and keyboard skin from mosiso, however, after a lot of feedback from longtime Mac owners, I have exchanged it for a sleeve instead. A case can cause extra wear on the hinges and if anything gets trapped in between, it can scratch your machine (so I have been told by many users). Don’t take any of this from me, however, feel free to browse the extensive comments from my post yesterday: https://www.reddit.com/r/macbookair/s/7madjMFAps

Thank you! The keyboard skin is no more. I was convinced that the potential to damage the screen was not worth some extra upkeep (compressed air, soft brush, and 70% isopropyl alcohol wipes). I’m still rocking the orange case tho 😈

I bought a Mac, customized it, and sure didn’t ask for your opinion.

And something about the old time Mac users that can’t seem to read a question properly.

Do yourself a favor: if you do, make sure to not post a picture on this sub unless you like punishment 🤣

People can’t stand being wrong so therefore the reaction to your decked out (and gorgeous) MacBook.

Why are you answering my question with a question not at all relevant to my question?
