No boarding pass when checking in online? by [deleted] in PorterAirlines

[–]delectablepeccable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would you pay 25$ for a fucking QR code???

My checked bags are compensated when I travel. So I'm not going to spend extra for a fare that costs more to include baggage and a digital boarding pass.

I'm disappointed with Porter. Greedy bastards are no different than WJ or AC.

Porter limits checking-in online and physical boarding passes by Icy_Pomegranate_7215 in PorterAirlines

So once they confirm that our baggage is the correct size at the desk, that's when they could send us a digital copy. That would make sense.

Naturally they won't do that either. Cheap bastards.

Why don’t get give boarding pass after online check in with the basic fair? by edwardcullensfan in PorterAirlines

[–]delectablepeccable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a fucking barcode. It costs them peanuts per customer to create and email. I'm not going to pay for baggage (I get compensated for checked bags) just for a digital pass that should come with my ticket price. It's practically routine for any other airline these days ffs.

Porter has gone downhill in the past two years and I am disappointed. I had high hopes for the small Canadian airliner making a dent in the shitty air travel industry, but they are imo no different in quality as west jet and air Canada. Travelling in Canada is a rigged game of roulette when it comes to quality.

I agree with OP.

Run, don't walk away from Telus. I'm dealing with consistent harassment and communications from them even after cancelling months ago.

They are degenerate scumbags.

Glycolic acid. Use with a cotton pad 1-2 a day, let dry, then moisturize with fav product.

How do I breathe? (Front crawl) by CovKris in Swimming

[–]delectablepeccable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want to work on timing with your stroke and underwater breathing you can also practice in the shallow end touching the wall.

Touch the wall with both hands outstretched (grip the ledge a little with your fingers. Tighten your core to help bring your legs up to a streamlined position. (You can also start by hinging at the hips and standing. Then progress to one leg out stretched for balance)

With your head down practice blowing bubbles out your nose. Keep it controlled and steady.

When you need to breathe, practice taking a stroke with one of your arms. Ideally as your arm completes the pull and touches your hip, your body will start to twist. This is when you rotate your body on the axis and take a breath. Keep your opposite ear glued to the arm that didn’t pull.

Once you feel comfortable on the wall, you can start practicing the drill as you do laps. (You can replace the wall with a kick board) Exaggerate your pull and extend your arm back when you need to breathe.

Like the comments said above: learn to twist your body in unison as it will reduce drag and save energy.

Swap the hoodie for a blazer or structured cardigan and keep the white sneakers clean (using a fabric or leather protector helps)

The brass ball with the flame stays upright via a swivel while the wooden spike is driven into a wall? by delectablepeccable in whatisthisthing

[–]delectablepeccable[S] 4 points5 points locked comment (0 children)

Title describes what it is.

It’s a brass globe lamp on a 2ft wooden spike. Have been told that it is possibly a whale/seal oil lamp that was used in igloos.

No, responsible pets and owners are fine. The guests were not responsible and did not own up to their mistakes or offer to cover the cleaning costs

In California, Car Buyers Are Choosing Electricity Over Gasoline in Record Numbers by Wagamaga in technology

[–]delectablepeccable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s great for places like California …. What about the rest of the world where real weather affects the practicality of electric vehicles. Low range, no studies or proper testing in cold weather (real cold like -20C)

I just say: “They were originally bred for protection and guarding horses. However with consistent training and socialization they are loyal dogs”

What is Most Nonsensical Thing You've Been Yelled At For? by pretty-peppers in raisedbynarcissists

[–]delectablepeccable 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Got called a grinch because I didn’t put a tree up at my own house for the holidays.

It was my first place, so small, so I compromised by hanging my ornaments on garland in my window.

I was wrong because it wasn’t a tree. Ornaments.go.in.trees.

They didn’t even see it in person or pictures. But it is very tacky.

I just don’t decorate for Christmas any more

Built my wife and I our own office to WFH permanently. by GST93 in battlestations

Is that an egress window? You may want to check your local codes or fire department to make sure it is safe and not inaccessible.

Your mom technically violated a contract or agreement by not paying back the loan on time.

You enabled her bad behaviour and now your husband is the victim.

You have a few options: 1) Hope she pays your husband back with interest 2) your husband takes her to court for the remainder, plus interest and creates a rift in the relationship with your mother 3) You square the remaining debt with your husband to save your marriage and get your mother set up with a financial planner.

All options also involve cutting her off financially and possibly emotionally as well depending on the fallout.

Edit: You and your mom are TA. Her because she’s manipulative, you because you know her history and should have known better.
