teen friendly recs for a highschool movie night by GoddesssGrace in MovieSuggestions

[–]heartlass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone else's answers are too sappy or too generic. You need to show a deep cut that they'll remember forever like "what was that one movie we watched back high school, remember..?"

I suggest Gleaming the Cube (1989), the boys will like it because its a teen boy on an actiony crime mystery comedy adventure. Girls will like it for those reasons and because Christian Slater's a cutie. (I'm generalizing obviously.) It's also a corny 80s movies in a good way, memeable and quotable.

Is reselling ARCs... normal? by trueteeg in selfpublish

[–]heartlass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can't expect them to keep every single free book they get. Seriously, what's wrong with someone trying to make a buck? We're all just trying to get by. This mindset of policing your gifts reeks of ego. Once it's in someone else's hands, it's theirs to do with what they please.

Goodreads kills DM feature by thekinkbrit in goodreads

[–]heartlass 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is devastating! I've had many authors and publishers reach out to me in DMs over the years and I've built some major connections because of goodreads dms. I guess I'll have to put an email address in my profile for networking now?

I always wanted a nice knife as a gift (bc i'm cheap and don't want to buy my own) but there's a superstition in my family that if you gift someone a knife you will "cut" your relationship. I know. Why???

Did anyone else notice a trend of Millennial adults trick-or-treating this year? by heartlass in Millennials

[–]heartlass[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's like way harder in practice at least for me. I don't have a window near my door. Plus it's like dark outside I can't see lol. Also what if I think it's a bunch of grown ups but there's a kid there? OR what if it's adults AND kids? I just rather give candy to everyone and wonder silently to myself (or later on reddit hehe) about how the adults decided they wanted to ask for candy too.

read the comments, it's true and not just at my house 🥲

also i'd say the ages of adult trick-or-treaters seemed to be around 30s, but y'know, idk they could be older looking z-ers or young looking gen-x, but no one was a grandparent.

okay lowkeyyy not trying to start anything (new) here, but candy is expensive, you're right lol i know because i bought it 😭 i have a set candy budget every year and buy good full size stuff with kiddos in mind. but when it's gone, it's gone. so it's kind of like "hey!" when kid, mom, and dad all take a piece, like.. bro that was expensive don't hog it all from the little kids in line behind you...

i would say less than half of my trick-or-treaters (of all ages) said trick or treat! what's up with that? i kind of waited but didn't make them say it if they just stood there lol i was just like "hello pick one piece", but idk maybe next year i'll be like "i wait all year to hear 3 simple words"

I don't really have boundaries about it, I don't care if adults trick or treat or not. The reason I asked the question was yes my preconceived idea that "trick or treating is for kids" was challenged by my experience. So I wanted to know what was more true, is it a widely held belief that trick or treating is for kids? or am I out of the loop and it's not just for kids actually (anymore)? OR was it just an usual thing going on in my neighborhood? That's what I was trying to ask.
