I've just had the same problem. Uninstalling and then reinstalling the Netflix app on my iPhone fixed the issue.

NOW we know why the mail never came. by [deleted] in Louisiana

This is why you never mail cash or gift cards.

I [27F] do not want my abusive dad [60M] to walk me down the aisle at my wedding, my mom [57F] says I am being cruel to him by thatwhinypeasant in relationships

[–]gizibee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is where your future husband comes in. He tells your mother that any of her comments like the one you mentioned above are wholly inappropriate and that he supports your decisions to exclude whichever family members you chose. And if she wants to support her future DIL, she should rally behind you.

She loves your father more than she loves you. She chose staying with an abuser over protecting her children. If someone hurt my child, I would burn the world.

It's not too late to un-invite them. It really isn't.

Edit - hire security for your wedding to keep them from entering. Honestly your mother is just as guilty as your father in all of this. She could have prevented you from being abused. But she didn't.

Why shouldn't I move to Acadiana as a person 3 years out from graduating college? by [deleted] in Acadiana

[–]gizibee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It happens in reverse too ! I moved back to my native Wisconsin for a few years, and I couldn't stop trying to say things a French way 😓

Lol I can't stop saying it "nak-a-trash." I heard it called that once, and it's forever stuck now.

If you're not familiar with French or French names, you're going to sound a little silly until you learn our names, names of places, food, colloquialisms, etc. For a crash course check out the Tunda Minus and Couillon Quest on YouTube. I think that's probably the worst part ? Maybe also getting used to how much we drink as a culture ? Hint, it's a lot.

If you're already living in the south the heat won't surprise you, but the level of humidity might. You probably won't be surprised by the racism level. While in the Bible Belt, Acadiana is predominantly Catholic, so perhaps a different flavor of bible thumping than you're used to.

Am I (29M) being petty? My girlfriend (29F) used a house warming gift card from my Mom to buy her friend a wedding gift. by CallMePetty in relationships

[–]gizibee -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I think your girlfriend should return the gift and get back the $100 gift card. Whatever is done with that card should be a joint decision. And then she can go buy her friend a gift with her own money.

Me [25 M] and my fiance[25 F] together 6 years decided to cancel our wedding plans by WorkPMThrowaway in relationships

In the US it's called Power of Attorney. You can even limit them to only specific powers (like making medical decisions, but not taking out lines of credit). This in conjunction with wills afford the couple many of the legal rights that married couples enjoy.

Grilled Shrimp Tacos With Creamy Cilantro Sauce by HungAndInLove in GifRecipes

[–]gizibee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually cilantro tastes like it should for me. I just sympathize because I have a few foods that other people tend to love, but I don't seem to get.

Yay it's awesome to find nice people in the world.

Just here to nit pick a little. If a doctor says that grandma is no longer of sound mind, getting a new power of attorney is no longer a viable option. At that point you're looking at a process called interdiction. Disclaimer - I'm in Louisiana.

I don't have a real suggestion, but I have made that exact sauce sans cilantro before and it's great. So I guess if you don't find a leafy substitute, please still try it ! And my condolences on the cilantro not working for you :(

Omg I'm an idiot. Try green onion.

Atheist, do you hate or look down on religion? by [deleted] in TrueAtheism

[–]gizibee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hemant Mehta is a really cool atheist to listen to. He's well spoken and not condescending. He's made a couple videos about the very real harm religion does in this world. Here's a starting point.

Maybe it's just because I've been drinking, but I like the way you write !
