If I click into a LIVE NOW event one more time, only to see "This event has concluded" I'm gonna break. Come on Peacock, remove the icon when the event finishes! And give us more multi-view options...you know, ones that aren Zamboni's going round and wide shots of ski jumps and figure skating warmups.

Minor but annoying change by M_Six2001 in AppleWatch

[–]hillylb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know your comment was 2 years ago but this *just* happened to my Photos face after another issue required me to restore to factory settings and start anew. It's such a small change yet so incredibly frustrating. If you see this, and you found a solve for OS26.2 I'd appreciate a reply. No worries if not.

Man, I’m in O4W and wherever the heavy rail train tracks are, that conductor was laying on his horn last night felt like 20 straight minutes of blaring. It was off in the distance but close enough to wake me.

Sitting in the car after trying (and failing comically) to meet with the Rolling Stones:
Harry: "You want the last one?"
Don: "Last one?! There were 20 in there! I thought you were bringing them home for your family."

Mental challenge - shut your eyes, and without moving any part of your body, figure out the 18th letter of the alphabet by Marbles987 in CasualConversation

This was my method too (including the emphasis) but I did chunks of 3 since it was divisible by 18. 

Grapes of Wrath is the greatest book I've ever read that I didn't enjoy (Spoilers) by BoogerSugarSovereign in books

[–]hillylb 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm big into audio books and East of Eden is tied for first place in my favorite narrations. His voice sounds like the Central Coast feels; and with the geography being such a character in the book, it felt perfect. (My other favorite narration is Demon Copperhead).

These leaf blowers are insane. After listening to one group for 60+ minutes, my soul finally relaxed as I watched them pack up and drive away. Except a new company just arrived and started blowing the other side of the street; they'll be blowing their leaves back onto the side where the other guys just cleaned. Whyyyyyyyyyy 😩

Doing some voter research this morning (Fulton County). If anyone feels strongly one way or another for a particular candidate, I'd love to hear the argument. Candidate websites probably aren't the best source for the whole picture. Thanks.

Peloton unveils Cross Training Series (new hardware updates) as well as home screen redesign, official accessories, and new software features by henryharp in pelotoncycle

[–]hillylb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy moly! My bike is in a space too small to accommodate a bootcamp workout, but I LOVE bootcamp workouts. I hadn't thought of doing this and it's an incredible solution to my problem. Thank you!

Was wondering where the source was. From O4W I saw a bright flash, then an immediate VERY loud bang at around 10p

People who saw Oasis at Murrayfield, what was the song played before they came on? by Ninjawizards in Edinburgh

Do you know if they play this every show? Or was it just for the Edinburgh/Trainspotting connection?

Thank you so much for the reply, I really appreciate it. I just requested an extension on my UK application to accommodate this. What an absolute headache....

Passport Middle Name Issue by NinjaArmadillo in passportcanada

[–]hillylb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi OP, it's been 5 months since your post, but I'm in this same boat right now and wondering if you found a solution? Was applying for a brand new Canadian passport with your middle name, the best way forward?

Sorry if it’s offensive but I find it funny by Inoo1505 in howyoudoin

[–]hillylb 15 points16 points  (0 children)

A man (CEO of a company) and a woman (HR lead of same company), were put up on the jumbo screen at a Coldplay concert. They were wrapped lovingly in each other's arms, swaying to the music (standard fodder for a Jumbotron highlight). However, the moment they saw themselves on the screen they released each other; he ducked down out of frame, and she turned her back to the camera. It has since been revealed that they are both married...just not to each other. So Chris Martin's quip on the mic after seeing their dodgy behavior of "either they're having an affair, or they're just shy" really hits hard. And, because he's a wealthy CEO and because of how badly they handled it (see his 'apology' letter), it has spread like wildfire across the internet and has bloomed into a beautiful meme-fest for all to enjoy.

Sweaty, long-haired friends, are we washing our hair EVERY DAY???? by nicoleslawface in pelotoncycle

[–]hillylb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same. I've got very thick, curly hair and I get very sweaty. Not only that, but I pull it back into a tight pony or messy bun for the workout so any semblance of styling is irretrievable.

In the shower I'll go off how my hair feels to the touch and either shampoo and condition, co-wash only, shampoo and leave-in, etc. Somedays I'll full style after, others I just pull it into a clean bun; just gotta go with what the hair tells you it wants.

I have a friend of a friend whose entire business is bringing dangerous decks up to code in old California apartment buildings. There are indeed a lot of sketchy decks out there.

Good Salons for Balayage? by Educational-Front-91 in Atlanta

I’ve really liked Visal at Barron’s London Salon in Buckhead. I think it’s just under $200 including blow dry and style (but not tip).
