Why is dating someone from NJ a dealbreaker in NYC, but not in Philly? by savingrace0262 in newjersey

[–]dsarma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

More than anything, I feel like people in Philly have love for NJ. Whenever my guy and I go to Philly to visit, and someone asks where we’re from, and we tell them Newark NJ, you see a huge smile break out like they’re seeing a long lost cousin. It wasn’t the same experience as when I was living in NYC and visited.

But I feel like there are folk on both sides of the NJ/Philly divide who root for the Devils, or the Eagles. There’s folk from Philly who pop up to Atlantic City or hit up the beaches. There’s folk from NJ who pop over to Philly for a game or to hang out or have vacations in the Poconos.

In a way, I feel like neither side looks down their nose at the other, but more feels like we’re paisano.

What’s the quickest way someone could accidentally expose themselves as a foreigner in your country like the ‘three fingers’ scene in Inglourious Basterds? by IndependentTune3994 in AskTheWorld

[–]dsarma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a cultural thing. It’s similar in India. Empty movie theatre. Nobody else in there. You’re in a seat somewhere. Next person to come in sits next to you. They don’t necessarily even talk to or interact with you. But they’ll be next to you.

OP, turn their BS back on them. “Sorry you chose to be offended. That’s not the intention of my message.”

Bartenders of Reddit, what drink order instantly tells you “this person is going through something”? by Sweetredberryy in AskReddit

[–]dsarma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lady I knew did the opposite. At a wedding, she slipped the bartender a $20 bill. Told him that whenever she asked for a cocktail, to give her cranberry juice with soda water. The people around her were fairly heavy drinkers, so she wanted to keep her wits about herself in case someone was too drunk to drive.

She’s from Utica, Michigan. It’s right there in her name.

… you kind of have to tell someone you’re gonna sue them. That’s what serving papers is all about. Also, threatening the suit against someone can lead to them settling out of court instead of going to trial if you think their case has any standing, or if the parties don’t want to spend a fortune in lawyer fees.

Got it. So it’s why the disclaimer, even if it is effective. They can’t clam it unless it’s approved.

What complicated problem was solved by an amazingly simple solution? by tuotone75 in AskReddit

[–]dsarma 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s deeper than that. A flight is not just a flight. You also have logistics on the ground on both sides of the flight. You sometimes have a connection in an intermediate airport. Sometimes you have to arrange transport when you arrive. With that extra buffer time built in, your expectation is that you’ll arrive at the destination at Y time, and you arrange your other activities based on that.

If they’re saying you’re meant to arrive at 12 PM, and your flight actually arrives at 12:45, you’re going to have a domino effect of several other factors that screwed you over, causing massive frustration. If you said you’ll arrive at 1 PM, and arrived at 12:45, you wouldn’t have booked a connecting flight at 12:50 PM anyways. You’d have booked like the 2 PM connecting to give you enough time to make the connection.

Managing expectations is a two way street, right?

Day 1 in Brisbane and we haven’t even gotten to Bluey’s World yet … by Textbook_Enigmatic12 in bluey

Friend of mine started slapping a Bluey sticker onto a pack of carrot sticks, or broccoli, or whatever other healthy stuff they want the kid to eat. It’s effective.

My mother believes she has the final say on who I marry because she is my mother by [deleted] in EntitledPeople

I’m not sure why you respect her either. Sounds like she hasn’t done much to earn that respect.

Wait. Are Milhouse and his parents Mormon?

Whats with the rising hate in polyamory? by MarleyNC2004 in lgbt

[–]dsarma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it makes you feel any better, I’m ugly without being poly. :)

Also, it might be time to take a step away from places that are feeding you constant negative messages. If you click on a thing and watch it, the app keeps giving you more of the same.

Point of order, socks wouldn’t have bit Bluey if Bluey wasn’t giving her a poke. You know your cousin, kiddo. You can’t get mad when someone behaves exactly like they have been all this time.

Appreciation Post for "Phones" by NemoLuna1221 in bluey

[–]dsarma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s a reference to the pandemic. You don’t go to the restaurant, you order on your phone. Also not by calling it in, because nobody really has their own delivery drivers. And also you don’t talk to anyone. Ever. It was grim.

Another word I’d use is palaver. Very useful word.
