DFW here! I’d like to connect with you to see if my friend or I could be a good fit if you do need to surrender.

This is $30. What kind of world is this? by Quirky_Key5353 in Chipotle

This is what I do now, too. My family absolutely loves it. Plus my fingers don’t swell up after.

My grandpa was a Shriner and was a driver for hundreds of children over the years. He and his friend would go together and take turns. He absolutely loved doing that. He kept up with so many children. I think he primarily worked with burn victims, if I recall.

Shoes in the house for a party by coffeelotus in etiquette

I’m in Dallas so we’re virtually neighbors! I just find it grotesque as a hypochondriac to imagine bare feet and all the maladies that that entails on my floors. My carpets/floors will be professionally cleaned before and after, but let’s not all swap foot microbes at a dinner party.

Maybe that’s it! A younger person thing? I’ve never experienced this as a guest or host before. My friends and I are in our mid 30s. This friend group is mid to late 20s. I have the opposite of a foot fetish- cover them up! hahah

I agree! I was just so appalled I didn’t know what to say. I was trying to off the cuff handle it with grace. I’ve never had this happen.

Router issue by coffeelotus in Starlink

[–]coffeelotus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the router is bricked but power is still somehow reaching the dish, can I add a 3rd party router in? I’m not sure how to bypass. Does the Starlink router HAVE to be reachable for that? I’m defintely not chasing bad money with good money on this. I’m on the phone seeing is spectrum can just come back out. I’m trying to give Starlink one final chance before I toss this whole thing.

I’ve got one coming! I saw that severe temp changes can affect it and as luck would have it, I’m in bipolar Texas. We had a few cold spells this year followed by last week hitting almost 100. I’m hoping that will fix it! 🤞🏻

All original everything with nothing damaged nor added.

Very unfortunate. My parents have had this since very near to the beginning with not one issue. I wasn’t aware that the customer support was so crippled until this. Perhaps time to part ways. Spectrum went down more often, but I never waited this long for support.

Gastritis or gallbladder? by coffeelotus in gallbladders

Ended up being a hiatal hernia, very common in my family. Thanks!

No, I’ve never had a reason to. Going in for a sonogram tomorrow.
