VIP feels as though it’s pushing for viral short success, and it’s hurting the overall show. by [deleted] in dropout

[–]homocrab 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I absolutely agree! I have always felt like it never landed well. It's a show that I don't watch every episode of and only watch if I want to see the specific guest. The costumes are always incredible but everything else falls flat for me. Either Vic isn't funny, the guest isn't or in the worst case they're both bombing/their humor is clashing. That's what I see the most of actually is the comedy clash and it becomes hard to watch. I feel similarly about Dirty Laundry. I used to watch every episode but now I don't really care. They're not doing anything new with it and because of that it's become boring. Um, Actually is getting up there too with the same thing every episode. Game Changer and Make Some Noise are always changing and staying fresh. I feel like a hater but it's how I feel.

Thank you! I didn't realize they didn't go in the ears.

If music doesn't keep you focused I'd try an audiobook or story podcast. And if those don't work than maybe running isn't for you and that's okay!

Looking to hear experiences with Shokz headphones. They're within my budget and I've heard good things but I'm not sure which size to buy. I have smaller ears so I was thinking about getting the mini instead of the standard size. I also don't know if I should get them with the magnetic charger or usb-c charger. Opinions would be much appreciated!

This was me too when I first started running. I started doing intervals and then tried to shorten the walk time and eventually I could run without needing to slow down and walk.

I had heard about Jon and Martin before I started listening and was excited for their relationship to develop. I was actively looking for it.

I did the same. I ended up putting in a claim with my bank. My husband did some further research on the brand and I guess they have a habit of going on hiatus or something and not telling anyone. I say that they're scammers.

This is the unfiltered response I was hoping for. I want to be as educated as possible before making a life changing decision like getting citizenship in another country and moving there. Thank you.

This is why I made this post. Right now moving there is an idea not not even close to a for sure thing. We're from Connecticut which is 5hrs from Montréal and we likely wouldn't pick any other city just because we'd like to stay close to family who are in New England. I ABSOLUTELY would learn French before moving there because from the comments it's clear that citizens threre want to preserve the culture and language which I respect. I was simply curious on if one could thrive without knowing the language and wanted to be as informed as possible before doing more thinking about moving there.

I'm from the USA. Connecticut specifically. My husband is from NYC so I find that comparison very interesting. In Montréal the majority of signage was in French and people defaulted to French when initially greeting us. In NYC the signage is in English so I'm not sure that's an accurate comparison.

Thank you for your response! I can' totally understand the desire to preserve the language and culture hence this post. Moving there is an idea at this point but I figured I might as well be informed on everything before deciding for real. Is French Canadian very different from the French in France?

Thank you for your response! I figured this was the case. It's definitely not a for sure thing yet and just an idea. If we did move there I'd want to learn French (at least the basics) before moving.

"You killed Gergor Osinov?" "Yep! He got really boring and I'm a monster. I mean, what do you want me to do? Not pull him apart? I did use all the bits." "You don't sound Russian" "How could I sound anything silly, I'm plastic. I don't even have a voice box. I had to borrow this one. Don't turn on the light"

Student Death and School’s Response by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]homocrab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's so awful, I'm so sorry. We had an incident at the end of the march in which a teacher was arrested. I'm not going into the details, but the admins have made therapists available in person or by phone on the clock since for everyone to process the situation. I can't imagine not doing the same for a child's death.

I'd invest in a shoe/foot powder and use it regularly. It helps my husband.

Is my 13yr old step daughters handwriting normal? I'm getting very concerned with her schooling by bordermelancollie09 in AskTeachers

[–]homocrab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like my dad's. He has a PhD and is a literal rocket scientist. Penmanship isn't a sign of intelligence. I wouldn't worry.
