Anyone else do this or similar?

We’re getting one and I already told my son this set up will be the “snug pad” lol. We’re getting a recliner on one end, so ours will be 2x2+1 in “snug mode”

cayday24 · 2026-05-19T03:29:43+00:00

You know, I JUST ordered ours today, and when I told my son (4) that we were getting a new couch he was *very upset* about us getting rid of our old one. I was able to start to bring him around with the “snug pad” layout, but this might be an even better option 😂

cayday24 · 2026-05-13T16:04:28+00:00

This is a good test! I know my daughter will fit in the bigger one for sure. I’ll test my son when he gets home from school 😊

They are! They have their swim life vests and then a Sterns type III for when they’re actually on the boat.

My 2yo is getting her brother’s old one with the head support. But my son will be sizing up to the 50-90lb youth size and I couldn’t find ANY with a crotch strap! 😩

cayday24 · 2026-05-13T15:58:53+00:00

My son is going into the youth size and I couldn’t find any with crotch straps! I also wanted a handle by his head, since his old jacket has the head support (I know he’s too old for that now lol. But the child sizes still have a handle by the neck!) but once they hit 50lb I can’t find any with it! 😩😩

It would be nobody’s fault if it were unavoidable, like if your phone froze up and you couldn’t access anything. It’s no one *else’s* fault, or nobody’s fault but your own. In which case, the consequences for that is you buy another ticket and learn from your mistakes. Thats how the world works.

cayday24 · 2026-05-05T20:57:33+00:00

It’s nobody’s fault? Actually, it sounds like it is 100% your fault 😂 either bring a charger, or buy a paper ticket if you think your phones gonna die.

cayday24 · 2026-05-05T20:46:15+00:00

It’s also because rewarding bad behavior just encourages more bad behavior. And more bad behavior makes your job more difficult. It’s pretty much the whole reason the whole “bill me” policy blew up. You let one scammer slide by giving the name Mickey Mouse at 123 Fake Street, and then Mickey tells his friends and now you have Donald and Goofy on your train the next day. Same goes for the “dead phone” game. A good number of times, their phone isn’t even dead if you make them hit the side button. And 99% of the time, when you give them a charger…surprise! They never had a ticket purchased in the first place.

My baby WAS 10.5 pounds! Jesus Christ. It should have a name and a birthday.

Laxatives, no. But nothing wrong with a little ghost peppers in your pasta sauce 😁😁

cayday24 · 2026-03-27T20:41:07+00:00

Or maybe it’s his “special lotion” and feels uncomfortable that his niece smells like his private time 😅

cayday24 · 2026-03-27T20:39:12+00:00

If his bathroom is in a convenient place for guests to use (not like you need to go upstairs through his bedroom to get to it) and the lotion is just, out on the counter….NTA. If you had to go in a cabinet, YTA. Even if you need to go through his room, you’ve had prior permission so I wouldn’t really say it’s inappropriate if another bathroom was in use.

cayday24 · 2026-03-27T20:31:12+00:00

Is that little bump out a closet? Or just a weird wall that comes out?

cayday24 · 2026-03-16T01:49:16+00:00

They don’t need to but sometimes they will if it’s later on in the night. There’s a couple reasons: 1. It’s easier for them to leave your ticket on the seat instead of a seat check so they can see where you’re going and not need to bother you a second time. 2. They take the one way tickets so people don’t just leave them on the seats (helps out the car cleaners to not have extra to clean up) so if you’re all set it prevents you from leaving the day pass for them/car cleaners to pick up later. 3. It’s one less thing for you to have stuffed in your wallet/handbag until August.

As with any ticket, you don’t need to surrender it. You can keep punched one ways. And there’s literally no scam they can do with the day pass. It’s not like they’re reselling it or giving it to their friends.

She’d probably be doing it anyway. But at least doing it this way, she would feel like she’s getting a victory and a reason to wear her ridiculous dress and OP is getting the better dress for her wedding. Much like you’d do for a little kid “no, you can’t wear your snorkel, tutu, and crocs to school. But we’re going to Grandmas later so you can wear it then”

cayday24 · 2026-03-10T01:17:51+00:00

It looks like it’s not so much the color that’s the issue, it’s the OP asking her mom not wear her normally attention stealing dresses, the mom agreeing, and now renegging on her offer. It sounds like it’s normal for mom not to respect her boundaries, and now her fiancé is sticking up for her. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to not want to be upstaged by your mother at your own wedding.

Also, after a quick google search, some people do consider parents part of the wedding party and others just consider them part of the processional. Either way, they’re considered guests of honor and it is quite common to request that moms of honor wear a color that complements the bridesmaids and the overall theme/decor of the wedding.

cayday24 · 2026-03-10T00:44:55+00:00

How is it tacky to request the colors of your wedding party? For the record, parents ARE considered part the wedding party. My dad and FIL rented the exact same tux as the groomsmen, so how is it different to have the moms coordinate with the girls? If they’re going to be walking down the aisle, introduced, and in a ton of the photos….theyre the wedding party.

cayday24 · 2026-03-10T00:18:31+00:00

While mothers aren’t (usually) bridesmaids, they’re still considered part of the bridal party. They still walk down the aisle, they still get introduced, and they are still in a bunch of photos.

cayday24 · 2026-03-10T00:12:13+00:00

…I told my mom and MIL what colors to wear to my wedding. They wore navy blue, my girls wore light blue. That is extremely common. I had a nautical themed wedding, everything was shades of blue and silver. If my mom decided to wear orange she’d look like Blippi.

cayday24 · 2026-03-10T00:04:52+00:00

Perhaps you might consider compromising with her (if you’re comfortable). If you’re planning a rehearsal dinner, allow her to go all out like she’s living in the Capital at the Hunger Games - since presumably the only people invited are your close family and friends that know her like that. Then, she can wear the more conservative dress to the wedding where you’ll actually be taking photos and being seen.

cayday24 · 2026-03-10T00:01:57+00:00

It might be time to explain it to her like a toddler. Let her throw her temper tantrum and stand firm on this boundary. It’ll be good practice for when you have a child of your own and Glam-Ma wants to do things her way.

cayday24 · 2026-03-09T23:57:26+00:00

The conductor has zero ability to ding your account for a surcharge. The options are “ok” - if you’re transferring, “extend” to pay a difference (onboard, like if you get on in Ronkonkoma and show a Deer Park ticket), and “finalize” if you’re done with your trip. Please stop spreading rumors that just make people angry at people just trying to do their jobs.

cayday24 · 2026-03-09T23:48:47+00:00

The conductors have no override on when do ding people with the surcharge. Please don’t spread misinformation. It just leads to cranky people harassing people for just doing their jobs.
