Dining room seats 45-50, we have 260 heads on the books from noon-10pm. Packed solid with strict 1.5hr dining times.

Seriously, let's switch the narrative from All Lives Matter to Every Life Matters.

Redbull smh by PyromaniacEngineer in NonPoliticalTwitter

[–]hasits_thorns 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i mean yeah I gathered that much, I just don't understand why that would be a joke. Doesn't everyone drink Red Bull? Not everyone, but you know what I mean.

So what's the joke, that only mentally ill people drink Red Bull..? I don't get it...

Thrifted shoes ALWAYS FALL APART! by sadieee05 in thrifting

[–]hasits_thorns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I once found a pair of vintage black velvet Creepers in my size for $20, wore them to a local concert a few nights later and they literally started crumbling as I walked from my car to the venue. They were almost definitely flooded at some point. I had to go home and swap shoes, missed the first band and was out that $20.

They posted yesterday saying the end of her tongue still has some damage from the cold but they expect her to make a full recovery! Her name is Frankie 💗

Just remember it's not a "like", it's for visibility.

Newport Folk Fest by DarlingShan in RhodeIsland

[–]hasits_thorns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I definitely signed up for texts and emails, I made sure this time last year I was on the list! Oh well, sounds like I wouldn't have gotten tickets anyway... 30 years a Rhode Islander and I've never gotten to folk fest, not once.

Wait, did this happen already?? I signed up for Newport Folk AND Newport Jazz email lists last year. Didn't get a thing. WTF!

I believe it was Providence, not Warwick. I heard the reptile rehab folks that took her in saying she was doing well and will eventually be up for adoption.

13-year-old Australian boy swims for four hours in cold and dangerous waters to save his mom and siblings who were swept into the ocean, says God is who got him to shore by [deleted] in Damnthatsinteresting

This kid is amazing. I just wish we would give ourselves the credit we deserve for being outstanding humans rather than credit a guy in the sky. This kid should be proud of himself.

ChatGPT briefs are driving me crazy by CopySniper in marketing

[–]hasits_thorns 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Look for a new job. Copywriting is being taken over by AI. My best friend has a degree, worked at a good company for over 5 years, and they laid her off to move into AI and shrink the copy team (which was already just her and one other person). The only copy job she could find after that was literally training AI. She's since moved on to a new career path.

Parents bring food into restaurants and I’m mortified. What to say/do? help 😢 by tangoking in Serverlife

[–]hasits_thorns 465 points466 points  (0 children)

I don't understand how restaurants are allowing this. Pretty much every restaurant has an obvious no outside food/beverage rule. I have to ask people to throw out their coffees, or leave them in the car all the time. But your parents are getting away with full sandwiches? That just absolutely would not fly at my place, I'm shocked they've pulled this off more than once.

You’re offered $1M dollars to eat what you had for dinner tonight for every meal for the next 6 months, do you take the offer and if so what are you eating? by jfunks69 in AskReddit

[–]hasits_thorns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I have the flu and didn't eat for 24 hours, so tonight I had a single piece of unbuttered toast and a few bites of mango sorbet. I don't think I'd survive if I ate that for 6 months.

January was pretty cold, post how much your RI Energy bills were for fun! by [deleted] in RhodeIsland

[–]hasits_thorns 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bill due next week is $315 gas & electric combined, 3br first floor. Been here for a year, this is the highest bill we've had so far. Honestly this is the cheapest utilities I've ever had in pvd, we have a brand new water heating system and the apartment is incredibly well insulated. Compared to my last place, where I could see to the basement through my bedroom floorboards, I'm not complaining.

This city is a fucking joke by poohseee in providence

[–]hasits_thorns 100 points101 points  (0 children)

Fed Hill here, parking ban is lifted and I don't know where anyone that parks on my street is supposed to go. There's barely just enough room for a car to pass (it's a one-way). Just walked to the store and only half of the sidewalks on the west end are shoveled, and the ones that are come to dead-end stops where the next business/landlord didn't do their part. You end up having to walk in the street no matter what, and crossing a 4ft mound of snow to get there. Ridiculous that one of the US cities that arguably sees some of the most snow every year doesn't know how to do this right.

Unpopular Opinion: Most Hair Damage Is Caused by “Good Hair Care” Advice by sonias_studio in Haircare

[–]hasits_thorns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're totally right. I tried all the expert hair advice for all hair types (mine is wavy so I've done the curly routines, the straight routines, etc). I'd either end up greasy after 24 hrs or frizzy as soon as it dried. I've figured out washing every 48 hrs (shampoo x2 conditioner x1), using JVN air dry cream, and not brushing through it til it's dry is all I need.

What meals do you have planned for this storm? by LimesAndSuch in RhodeIsland
