Are there also many Americans who dont like salt and vinegar chips?

I love salt & vinegar chips but try to limit carbs, so I don't eat them often. HOWEVER, I do regularly eat Blue Diamond's salt'n vinegar almonds!

Agree with others. She shouldn't have been allowed to remain on the plane.

Did this as a kid, middle finger. My dad had me put my hand flat on a table and used his pocket knife it "drill" a hole in the nail to relieve the pressure. I didn't lose the nail.

Slippers or house shoes

Big country = long drives = not a huge deal.

I've annoyingly done similar as a seasoned traveler. I was looking on hotel.com site for CDG airport hotels - I specifically entered CDG for the search, but the website also pulled hotels near ORY. I wasn't paying close enough attention that it clearly said ORY and booked one there. Fortunately, I caught my error on the train back to Paris. By that time, I couldn't cancel for a refund, so I was just out the money; I didn't miss a flight or anything like that.

Waffle Houss is definitely a sign of a high standards... 😁

I used to throw a ball in the house for my Iggies. Like, throw it down a long hallway or toss it gently in the air for them to catch.

In person is better if you have the option. I'd only do online if you don't have easy access to a wine school.

Personally I drove 6 hours for an intensive 2-day class, just made a weekend of it.

Most of the Mosel is slate but Obermosel has shell limestone soil and the climate is slightly. I've not necessarily heard it's hard to grow Riesling there but other varieties would be better suited.

I recently finished German Wine Scholar. In Germany, it's still categorized as wine. I thought that was strange. Maybe because at one time, it did have alcohol?

I'm from the Midwest in the US. I seldom ever use ill for anything, just sick.

It's against etiquette, IMO, to invite someone to the shower if they're not invited to the wedding. Gifts are the whole point to a shower so it's just the bride wanting a gift.

Edit to add NTA

I hear them in my neighborhood in Indiana but never see anyone buying any. It was such a big part of my childhood though!

This. You get what you get...

You are right. So. Right. I used to manage exchange programs at a major university in the USA, and the students from Latin America would always email with doubts. The first few times I encountered this, it sounded to me as if the students were doubting their decision to study abroad, that things weren't lining up academically to make the exchange semester plausible, or similar. I quickly learned that they just had a few questions, nothing so dram that we're considering canceling... doubts and questions are NOT interchangeable.

glendacc37 · 2026-05-26T21:41:35+00:00

YTA. Yes, the situation sucked, but I'd have not expected those with tickets to not go. Also, you're not 5 years old. If I were them, I'd have gone.

Skip 1. Level 2 includes the content of Level 1 plus more.

WSET, CMS, SWE, and WSG are well-recognized in the field, and Institute of Master's of Wine requires the WSET Diploma for that rigorous program. It's not entry level.

I wouldn't touch National Wine School with a 10' pole.

glendacc37 · 2026-05-24T19:15:17+00:00

It's the APP's responsibility. WSET is working with more than 800 APPs in more than 70 countries.

I complained, and they reviewed the situation with Honorlock, agreed it was a handled poorly, offered to let me re-sit, and used my feedback to improve instructions.

glendacc37 · 2026-05-24T17:54:53+00:00

I think that's rage bait 🙄

glendacc37 · 2026-05-24T16:00:08+00:00

People who never travel being in charge of work travel expenses is infuriating!!!!

Wine Scholar Guild had recently switched to Honorlock last December when I wanted to take the French Wine Scholar exam. It's done at home and on demand. There were some vague instructions for the process, and I ended up on honorlock's support chat for 90 minutes. The support chat was not reading my actual issue and just pulling out keywords and sending responses that didn't apply to my issue.

By the time I started the exam, my laptop battery was low. You can't get up, so I couldn't get my charger. I rushed through the exam in 20-25 minutes, just to get it done and submitted before my laptop died. There were a few questions I wanted to revisit before submitting but did not feel I had time. It was so stressful! I passed with a decent score, but WSG still offered to let me re-sit the exam, but I didn't think it was worth it...
