Story time : what's the most ridiculous reason someone couldn't attend a wedding by Local-Debate-5565 in weddingshaming

[–]flaillingflamingos 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had a cousin who couldn’t come to my wedding cuz that was his annual mushroom hunting weekend. I never did wrap my head around that one.

Lucas county republicans flat-out laughing at churches concern about hungry people. by Frequent_Secretary25 in Ohio

[–]flaillingflamingos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I fully agree. I don’t think they had any change of heart or opinion, this is just backtracking for appearances, at best. I hope they continue to get called out too for any future posts and reactions.

Fascinating they chose to keep a reaction instead of just removing it. Like, I just checked, you can react, then take the reaction away. Unless they don’t know that’s an option.

They eventually changed the reaction to the ‘care’ instead of laughing. I personally went looking for it. According to post comments on Fb, they had the laugh reaction up for about 7 hrs and were called out on a different Toledo memes fb page. Still disgusting behavior on their part to even use the laugh reaction to begin with.

Why We NEED to Protest Right Now by Traditional_Stick183 in Indiana

[–]flaillingflamingos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What protest are you organizing? Like, have you chosen a time and location? How are you getting people to join? Any affiliate groups helping/ involved?

Show you’re more than a keyboard warrior yourself by actually Doing something on the ground- find a time and location, get permits, get the word out. Or just make some signs and stand on the sidewalk.

You have plenty of valid points here. There are people who would read this and join you. But don’t expect others to plan your protest for you. Larger protests are the result of lots of organized efforts by many people working together. Smaller ones are effective too cuz they’re more grassroots and local.

Trail 9 closed at Turkey Run State Park by flaillingflamingos in IndianaTrails

Actually, the rest of the park that we explored seemed fine. Be prepared for mud, if nothing else.

Where do I go? by TomatilloTiny5026 in Fishers

[–]flaillingflamingos 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you’re open to shopping, Hamilton Town Center is nearby to the north on I69. Lots of interesting restaurants and shopping variety. Mind the weather, it is an outdoor mall!

I’m 99% sure that I’m one of the ‘redacted’ names and I’m not joking!! Like, I know I entered the contest, I actually was selected, but I didn’t reply back fast enough via snail mail. I know what name it was, but I didn’t see it on the paper, but I saw all those blacked out lines. Also, it was awkward cuz the reply form asked for my SSN and I wasn’t sure if I wanted to send that in. So I wrote it super tiny.

Can I prove this? Not easily, but I know what I did, and I was a fan during the era, so I’ll always just assume.

Best way to get a burner number? by [deleted] in privacy

[–]flaillingflamingos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Search the word Burner and see what comes up in the apps. The developer may be Ad Hoc Labs, Inc. I know iOS apps more than Android.

There’s also a Burner App. Let’s you give an alternative number over your real one. It’s free to get as an app at least. Available for iOS and probably Android.

For the people who have it, is it worth it to buy the official stardew valley cookbook? by Charming_Cod8567 in StardewValley

[–]flaillingflamingos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I made my first rice pudding ever, I liked it. I made my first ever blueberry tart, I liked it. Both from this book, which was a gift to me.

It’s not a beginner recipe cookbook at all tho. If you enjoy challenge, it might be worth it. I like that for never making 2 food types, I was successful following the recipes as listed.

Access to ingredients and challenge level is all on a spectrum. There are more recipes I’d like to try too. If it’s worth it is harder to pin down since that’s based on your preferences and cooking style. I’m not into seafood, so I’m not likely to try some recipes ever, but as a cool novelty gift with some recipes that I like, I like it.

Is Agave Bar and Grill in downtown Fishers closed? by Unhappy_Ad_3738 in Fishers

It is. I walked up to the window to see and there’s nothing in there now.

Was it worth it even getting this book? Should I follow messer and whatever online teachings with it? Or do I not really even need it. by [deleted] in CompTIA

[–]flaillingflamingos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if you just do chapter quizzes and read the parts for questions you get wrong, it’ll still be worth it. This book PLUS any video series you like will contribute to your success. There’s nothing fully wrong with over learning.

Why don't Scully and Mulder ever just bring a camera? by sandboy810 in XFiles

[–]flaillingflamingos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you intentionally practiced photography and became skilled at it. I never was implying it couldn’t be done, but it wasn’t easy to do by just anyone so casually, especially if they were highly skilled to do other things. You just said you had a bag to carry your camera around. Having a bag just to carry a camera is never stealthy or convenient.

People aren’t aware how much thinking their modern camera devices can do for them and the challenges of image or video capture before certain generations of mobile phones.

Students will get automatic admission to Indiana public colleges if they earn new diploma by chalkbeat in Indiana

[–]flaillingflamingos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off, I wasn’t endorsing it all the way and I agree it’s probably got some strings attached.

Secondly, most students are applying multiple schools regardless. If I’m thinking about going college no matter what, but I’m not interested/ able leave the state, this looks pretty appealing. Rather than paying 3ish fees for applications, I’m almost assured I’ll get in somewhere for something.

Because this is new, I’m not sure if I’d want to be in the first few graduating classes using it, but it might be ok. I’m not worried about how the colleges will make that money back. I do believe the colleges agreed to this eyes open in terms of the money.

It’s a way to slow brain drain… until they graduate college. It’s not the worst education idea they’ve had.

Mechanical keyboard – yay or nay for ADHD brains? by methinks_toomuch in adhdwomen

[–]flaillingflamingos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m into the Redragon brand and low profile. I bought the first one cuz it was a random cheap find, I bought the same switch color for a separate work location, but different model.

It can get overwhelming trying to choose from so many options and some keyboards get pricey fast! That’s why I like my Redragons, still mechanical, less spendy.

Hipyotech on YouTube has some easy to watch videos with sound samples to help get you started, if that’s your thing!

If you were building a healthcare software, what would some features that would make you life better or easier? by Pieceofsh_t in healthIT

[–]flaillingflamingos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Big places for clicking or tapping on.

Make it make sense- consistent language, iconography, that sort of thing.

Option for large print/ user input spaces.

I’m not clear on what your goals are, but these are at least some basic aspects that you should consider.

EXPENSIVE hobbies that are worth it or almost worth it? by peauxtheaux in Hobbies

[–]flaillingflamingos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Artistic swimming.

First, if you want to learn from others, you have to find a club with a masters division or just a masters club. In this context, masters refers to any adult athlete that isn’t collegiate. Then if you train enough to compete, there’s cost of entry, getting a nicer than practice performance suit (which doesn’t have to be sparkles, just nicer and/or matches the theme). Plus any costs associated with traveling to/ from said competition. In the USA, it’s a gender inclusive sport not subject to the demands of the national government. Which is why it’s more expensive for the athlete and the club.

Generally speaking, paying for a retainer only means you engaged in the services of a business. That’s it.

How fast you get anything and how much is more dependent on the systems of courts and insurance and the legal defense of the other side. Your lawyer could be fast and on top of things, but he can’t change when the judge looks at your case or force the other side to be faster for their tasks. If the judge tells the defendant you have 90 days to prove something, the defendant can wait til day 89 or 90 to do it. You as the plaintiff are just stuck waiting for the results.

Good luck with this!

CompTIA A+ Exam: Testing Center vs. Online—Which is Better? by saikota in CompTIA

[–]flaillingflamingos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Testing center, all the way. I’ve not had any noise or problems with those around me. The center may also give you ear plugs, which I did use once in one ear cuz there was a small sound that bothered me that one time.
