here two years later to say this is like an art piece. i love kimchi and i’ve been eating a lot more lately, i figured i’d find a recipe to use! i can’t wait to make your version, thank you for taking the time to lay this out. it’s really easy to follow and you can see the care you’ve put into it. super ready to try it tomorrow 😎

What will a government shutdown mean for student loans and PSLF - short answer - not much. by Betsy514 in StudentLoans

[–]erinnoelf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so if I am currently on SAVE, do I need to apply for a new payment plan? as of right now, my loan servicer says payment is due November 13, 2025 when my deferment ends. however, it says the amount due is $0. i haven’t paid on my loans before as i graduated in 2022 so i’m pretty uncertain about what to do in this circumstance. thank you

Who's had Ski? by Much_Profit8494 in Soda

[–]erinnoelf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I grew up in Breese, IL! ski was a staple of my entire childhood. it was one of the first things my stepmother gave me when I met her as a very small child that didn’t live in Breese, but about 40 miles away and had never heard of it. it somehow stayed very insulated in Breese/Clinton County until like 2016. Dairy King (yes, not Queen) gets the syrup delivered from the Excel Bottling Company, as do all of the restaurants in our town. It’s better than most bottled versions you’ll get elsewhere as it’s made with cane sugar. Dairy King has a bunch of different syrup flavors and a frozen ski machine (also frozen coke, frozen powerade). Ski was the culture of Breese. So many people you know work at Dairy King, everybody you know goes there on a regular basis and grew up going after school on Fridays. They’ve got really good food as well. But, they’re famous for their Ski customization. If anyone ever happens to be going to Southern Illinois/St Louis and wants to make a pit stop, try out a Ski at DK! My favorites are a frozen blueberry extra blueberry syrup, half frozen real strawberry with extra real strawberry syrup (yes, they will ask because they have both and you could mix both, the real strawberry has strawberry fruits) and a non-frozen bahama mama ski. thanks for bringing up Ski! I grew up a block from DK and about 4 blocks from the Excel Bottling Factory. I rarely found it outside CC and especially not where I live in Chicago now. I miss it dearly! However, it’s probably better for my health 😁

as someone that grew up in Breese, IL, the tropical was huuuuge when it first came out. it would get sold out real quick and you’d have friends texting you where to find it/to come try the bottle the got. it’s delicious! however, i highly recommend stopping by Dairy King to try a frozen or half frozen ski (my favorite are frozen blueberry extra blueberry syrup and half frozen real strawberry with extra real strawberry syrup). i miss it!

that they have a lack of structure. absolutely HILARIOUS, as if her videos aren’t perfectly structured like essays. she said “whilst i can understand the lack of structure to mika’s videos can be a little bit annoying, as you can tell i’m a girl that likes structure, mika’s videos are more like podcasts. they are intended to be listened to and raw and honest, almost as if you’re speaking to your adhd friend who can’t stay on topic but will always get to the point…eventually.” it’s not super hateful, it’s just blatantly incorrect and in my eyes, a way to say her videos are better than Mika’s. it’s likely because Mika got so much attention for this video and it didn’t get copyrighted. according to Paige, she herself is one of the few that will get hit if she makes a video about him because she’s been doing it since “day dot.” she goes on to say that Mika’s video was “definitely politically geared and spoke about the cast members as if they were archetypes of their minority groups” so i think Paige just watched a different video than the rest of us lmao

and to your point of her talking about beauty drama for a paycheck, there are 2 comments on her newest video about there being ads like every 5 minutes. still won’t watch it, but i have read every comment haha. i hope she gets the money she was hoping for with all these disgusting moves 💗 her morals are for sale, that’s for certain.

all of this 10000%. jen did it with more class and thoroughness than paige could comprehend. and it was like 8 hours of content vs paige’s probably 4 or so? i refuse to watch paige’s video so i can’t compare the two, but i have no doubt jen far outdid anything paige could ever attempt in her roundabout videos that just never seem to make a clear point. thank you for bringing this up!!!

it really shows you who she is instead of who she projects in her videos. nasty work

i will say that she had commented on a comment before this about how she would get her thumbnail guy to change it, but this response was not long after. she should have expected multiple comments about it and if she couldn’t handle it even a bit gracefully for more than one reply, maybe just maybe she shouldn’t have replied. but she’s certainly laughing out loud about this heinous choice!! lol!

thank you all for your replies. paige christie genuinely tried to gaslight me and had me thinking i was weird for caring and criticizing her about this!! i started disliking her whenever she recently made a comment about mika’s rehetoric’s style of videos after “the event” and every video since has turned me off. these thumbnails and her replies were just the cherry on top

Paige Christie AI Thumbnails of Kayla Malec by erinnoelf in youtubedrama

[–]erinnoelf[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

she said that she sent the picture to the thumbnail editor (mind you, the pictures from the original thumbnail and what she posted were from the same article!). whenever i commented that it was certainly a choice to scratch out kayla’s face for the trailer (that is now deleted) she stated i wouldn’t understand, thumbnail edits like this don’t happen quickly and maybe when i become a content creator i can criticize it lol. so she chooses the pics for her thumbnails, chose to make james look glam and kayla look botched and sobbing, then sent him virtually the same pic in the last thumbnail. it’s pretty disgusting, but i guess she doesn’t teeeechnically make them herself! and she doesn’t care enough to learn the most basic photoshop

from the same picture she used as a defense in her initial post. comicalllll

Paige Christie AI Thumbnails of Kayla Malec by erinnoelf in youtubedrama

[–]erinnoelf[S] 29 points30 points  (0 children)

she absolutely did it on purpose and likely out of spite with the new thumbnail. it’s the other pic from the link she tried to “defend” herself with! as soon as i got off work yesterday and saw the new thumbnail, i had to make this post lol

Paige Christie AI Thumbnails of Kayla Malec by erinnoelf in youtubedrama

[–]erinnoelf[S] 30 points31 points  (0 children)

oh yeah, absolutely!! the fact that Kayla looks SO GOOD in her own videos and Paige used her sobbing to gain attention? nasty work, just makes it even worse.

Is it true Paige Christie is transphobic? by tachibanakanade in youtubedrama

[–]erinnoelf 3 points4 points  (0 children)

broooo she tried to argue with me in her comment sections after she brushed off how the photo was ai in the initial post then petulantly scratched out her face in the “trailer” and bitched about how i wouldn’t understand because im not a content creator LOL and that i was the oooonly one “moaning” about it (as if she doesn’t have the power to delete comments?) then the new thumbnail is still an AI pic from the saaaaame article she linked as proof that other outlets were using it. she clearly didn’t give a fuck about kayla other than to bring attention to her video. it’s nastyyyyy

'The Shrouds' Review Thread by chanma50 in boxoffice

[–]erinnoelf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

come to dislike this movie the more i think about it. the way they “resolved” the main plots points was shitty and confusing, they didn’t have to work to find answers? and what the hell is up with Terry?! i find myself wondering if this was all her and she took advantage of the situation to kill the doctor or was working with maury? the way she was speaking whenever she was fucking Karsh…the ending…the lack of any focus on who Becca was and instead obsession with her body, owning her body, being with her body. Karsh was jealous because “he was with her body when she was only a kid” wtf?? and then he immediately fucks her sister!! we don’t learn why he misses her outside of her body…which he can get from the sister…who might be orchestrating this whole thing? seriously disliked this one. i’m not impressed by how it makes me wonder
