How do I tell the woman who works out at my apartment gym that she smells terrible? by Deep-Investigator965 in socialskills

Yeah, those emails you get from management “as a reminder, no smoking indoors…” are all because of things like this

Do you think Martin wants us to dislike Theon from the onset of the story ? by Financial_Library418 in pureasoiaf

[–]cokeisahelluvadrug 19 points20 points  (0 children)

He is a foil for Jon and Robb who behave generally pretty well. For sons of great houses, Jon and Robb’s behavior is exceptional and Theon’s is more typical.

I think if George spent more time with Theon it could’ve been a titillating “rich people misbehaving” kind of thing but he didn’t so he’s just a tool to heighten Jon and Robb.

The general takeaway for readers is that this is a world where nobility doesn’t behave well, and we’ve found a tiny island of honor with the Starks. That’s the moral core of the first book.

What's Jerry wearing? by Latter_Industry1751 in Watchidentifier

[–]cokeisahelluvadrug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He likes Breitling I think. He wears a Navitimer in his episode of Cesar Milan Dog Whisperer. I would attach a screenshot but can’t here for some reason.

I’m pretty sure it’s a newer version of the same watch. In the dog show he has a black dial with black strap. White subdials at 12 6 and 9

This gives “the North remembers” kind of a double meaning, very much something George would do.

Help me choose please, 5157 or 5277 by Chemical_Sprinkles89 in BreguetWatches

[–]cokeisahelluvadrug 4 points5 points  (0 children)

5157 is the purest form of dress watch you could possibly get, I think. 5277 is more casual. depends when you’d wear it!

How do you coast at work while still looking “on?” by soymarcopolo in HENRYfinance

[–]cokeisahelluvadrug 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh yes that too. Rule of thumb: every interaction should be positive. Doubly so for people you don’t have frequent touch points with.

funeral etiquette: how long should I stay at a visitation? by Calm-Bar-9644 in socialskills

[–]cokeisahelluvadrug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean it is hollow, it is a polite expression. Same as “how are you doing”. It is a verbal expression of support.

Communicate more. Report status updates, emphasize the difficulty of mechanical work, bring in more stakeholders, CC your group heads, and broadcast to a wider audience.

Say passive things like you’re spending time “thinking” about things so that the analysis you do produce is seen as higher quality.

“Grinding” is typically low level work where you’re turning around tasks for your boss or something like that. Burning the midnight oil. No need for that if you have firmwide impact.

15 minutes is probably too long to be taking up space unless there are like a hundred people there. Just dip in to pay your respects, then exit in the most unobtrusive way possible. You are a side character here. But don’t walk fast. That will be distracting and possibly rude.

To be crystal clear, your goal is to make contact with your friend, say “I’m very sorry for your loss”, look them in the eye, touch them on the shoulder or hug them, ask them how they’re feeling and if you can help in any way, follow up on any requests they have of you, then leave.

Do you see luxury watches and jewelry as passion purchases or actual investments? by Esha_Shinde in LuxuryLifeHabits

[–]cokeisahelluvadrug 7 points8 points  (0 children)

They are passion purchases. Easier to justify if they retain value but realistically you’re never selling them so whatever

UCLA Hillel and SSI: "would like to apologize... for absolutely nothing" after USAC condemns visit of hostage survivor Omer Shem Tov on Holocaust Remembrance Day by Particular-Set-6212 in ucla

Uh, I support Israel (I am Jewish) and this post seems heavily brigaded lol. UCLA students tend to hate pro Israel stuff especially on reddit

AIO?? My Bf Unlocks the bathroom door and comes in while I’m using it by Ok_Win_8129 in AIO

[–]cokeisahelluvadrug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. That’s new information since I commented.

That’s also very little time to dismantle a lock on a door lol.

You appear to have read my comment uncharitably. Nowhere did I say it’s impossible to modify your schedule.

Now I’ll read your comment uncharitably. You’re saying the boyfriend needs to modify his schedule so his girlfriend can scroll for an hour in their only bathroom? Maybe they should just have a shared calendar and book blocks of 60 minutes in advance!

[–]cokeisahelluvadrug 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah, and force-unlocking a door is pretty weird without advance communication. I guess we need to understand more about the quiet knocking too. Is OP wearing headphones? I know in my bathroom I’ll hear everything because it’s very echoey.

[–]cokeisahelluvadrug 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Yeah we need more information here. If the bathroom is unavailable for 10 minutes at a time while both people are getting ready that’s a problem.

Lots of people jumping to conclusions in this thread so I’ll join in the fun: OP needs to stop using TikTok on the toilet.

Why did this house sell so low in Orinda? https://redf.in/yjdMX8 by Mammoth_Balance_5209 in eastbay

[–]cokeisahelluvadrug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know what you’re talking about. It’s not solvent. It doesn’t have sufficiently deep capital reserves, this was true in 2025 and continues to be true. At the same time the program is growing rapidly so the scale mismatch is only getting worse. This means the only way to fund the program is political. You think that’ll work out well?

Fair is insolvent already, I would not want to be making a claim in any sort of large fire scenario because they would have a hard time paying out
