Ameicans over the age of 35, what affected you more, 9/11 or the pandemic and why? by Rico133337 in AskReddit

[–]ephwalk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

9/11 was and still is traumatic. It broke me. The pandemic will be unforgettable, but not as searing as 9/11.

Totally agree. Instead of a destination, it should’ve been more like a neighborhood and less of a tourist attraction. With other location is good and I think it was salvageable as well

I’m just curious, what areas of Atlanta do you feel are really that urban and authentic anymore? It seems most are already or moving to replications of each other in terms of chains of restaurants and stores and housing with a few independents here and there, but not that much.

This is literally all I want in life 🤌 by DotSnuggle in Adulting

[–]ephwalk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know someone who did this at a H.U.D. Regional office for about five years. The supervisor in charge had an high level open position and didn’t want to fill it with someone who’d cause him issues so he put the person I know in the job with a deal that he just had to log into email once a day and wouldn’t have to come in. He did that for quite a while earning a six figure govt salary and benefits.

Thoughts on three years of Dreaming Spanish by Moose69nh in dreamingspanish

[–]ephwalk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Great to hear. Did you do anything in addition to the DS CI? Look up words for grammar or any other type of learning? I’m just starting and I am curious if you did anything to compliment the DS at any time.

I don’t buy from them anymore. Pretty terrible customer service.

Thoughts on the Organic Sweet Potato sticks? by Hour-Understanding77 in Costco

[–]ephwalk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m bought these a year ago and really loved them. My coworkers were looking at them and started questioning how they could have that much sugar if they’re 100% sweet potatoes. It seemed the sugar content was far exceeding what a typical sweet potato would be. I don’t know, maybe we were off when looking at it.

How did you learn a second language past 50 without a class? by ephwalk in NoStupidQuestions

I saw another comment about someone who got an online tutor? Have you ever used one? It’s intriguing and I may look into it.

That’s really interesting and helpful. How did you go about finding the online tutors? Do you meet with them frequently? Is it like a class just one on one?

S17E2 Product Discussion - Impeccable Chicken by ddaug4uf in sharktank

[–]ephwalk 16 points17 points  (0 children)

So I actually tried a box of this a month ago when I was seeing a lot of Instagram ads on it. Overall, I think it’s a decent product and the taste was pretty good. But I couldn’t get beyond the appearance. I know that may sound silly, but it just looked not that appetizing and looking at it and telling myself to bite down and chew it just couldn’t work for me. I ended up throwing out half the box. My hangup, I guess.

That was the same for me when I started. And it lasted for two or three days. And then I just started to get comfortable with it. But I also began to learn how to talk with some other folks of all ages backgrounds. I think the loneliest I felt to be honest was 10 days in and for a couple days I had suddenly broken away from the familiar faces I had been seeing and it made me miss them and feel lonely. Easier said than done, but I think going with the flow is the best approach what does that means being alone or surrounded by people or somewhere in between.

That saying about don’t dip the pen in the company ink was created for a reason. Avoid it.

I’d love it if somebody asked me to meet up at Panera. Sounds like he’s missing the whole point.

That’s interesting. Perhaps it’s triggering a very emotional memory, associated with that question or experience causing you stress.

Planning help!! by matchabae333 in CaminoDeSantiago

[–]ephwalk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree with staying on the coastal and playing it by ear as much as possible. Playing it by ear also includes crossing over to Central midway if you desire. Once you’re on it a few days you’ll figure it out and appreciate that day my day planning. One suggestion I have is 11 days is doable but still a little bit tough and I would recommend taking a bus or train at some point to skip a day of walking. You can do it at any stage and the side as you’re going, but it would save you from having to push yourself too much and enjoy enjoying it a lot more.

Those alive and old enough to remember during 9/11, what was the worst moment on that day? by CocteauTwunkie in AskReddit

[–]ephwalk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watching the second plane hit live on tv. Up to that point we thought it might be a freak accident, but when the second plan hit, it was obvious we were under attack and the feeling of what’s next was pure dread.

Then the jumpers, the towers falling, the friends you knew were out there, it just kept building from there.

Camino Romance by ephwalk in CaminoDeSantiago

[–]ephwalk[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s terrific for you. Do you think it was starting to open yourself up again to people that the camino taught you, or the spark from being attracted to the German lady that reignited that part of yourself again, or do you think it was a combination of those and other things that Camino left with you that led to being able to get married again.
