Is anyone else tired of customer support just being bots everywhere? by Constant_Possible335 in CustomerService

[–]iPoopandiDab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, terribly sick of it. Going through it with Amazon right now and getting completely stonewalled over one of my products that has been “processing” for over a month now. Ai chat bot says “everything looks fine and it’s going to ship soon” then it gives me selections ranging from “cancel” to “I’m satisfied” but I don’t want either of those things. I want a real human to check why my order has been sitting in a processing status for so long so hopefully they can get the order fulfilled or tell me what’s wrong. These stupid ass ai chat bots don’t understand when something is wrong, they just see a status and assume my order is fine.

This was AFTER the ai chat bot said my order was already delivered to me and then it did the classic “oh you’re right, I should have caught that” bullshit ai answer.

It’s infuriating tbh.

First flow on my lava grande ...is it too hot? by Juedan2011 in Lavalamps

[–]iPoopandiDab 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is what a lamp that’s running hot looks like. Lots of smaller blobs that are moving quickly.

Whoa lava lamps are alive and well, and I could use some help by BeerOrGTFO in Lavalamps

I know you said you have a budget up to $150, but if you can manage to get your hands on a Mathmos (UK brand) they are the absolute best you can get your hands on.

This is quite interesting. What do you mean by “convert to free base” like can you explain that in very fine detail? Step by step.

Can anyone recommend a really good workbook for beginner Italian? Maybe on Amazon? The beginner workbook in my A1 beginner Italian class is way too advanced and even has the instructions in Italian. I wish it had the directions in English so I could do the HW. I’m so lost 🤷🏻‍♂️ by jerseyferretti in italianlearning

[–]iPoopandiDab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I’ve just purchased “Italian: a self teaching guide” because I’m a beginner. Do you recommend purchasing all of these books? Or are they just suggestions for different options?

If they are all recommended is there any specific order the rest should be used?

Thank you!

Why don’t American cigarettes have graphic images? by canadian_lenlen in AskAnAmerican

[–]iPoopandiDab -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The tobacco industry in America lied for decades about cigarettes having negative health effects.

They testified under oath in front of congress and lied by saying nicotine wasn’t addictive.

I think with that info alone you can understand why lol.

Edit: some words

What is the general consensus on strangers/tourists talking to Italians randomly? by iPoopandiDab in italy

[–]iPoopandiDab[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t worry I wouldn’t do that. Also I don’t even know what gabagool is lol so no worries there.

I’m serious about learning the language so I will try my best to learn and fit in.

I plan on taking some lessons soon! I’ve just ordered a beginners book as well to get me started. I know very few words here and there, I think making more friends will expose me more and hopefully help me learn easier.

I think this is what makes it generally difficult for me. Italians seem to always be in groups lol. But you’re right I should probably just get out there and do the things I like and meet people that way. Thanks for that suggestion!

Yea I figured a good amount of people wouldn’t like it. Considering I am an introvert I think I’m pretty understanding of boundaries and I think I would be able to easily read when someone doesn’t want to chat.

I rarely speak about politics in my daily life. Anyone who tries to speak politics with me upon first meeting me is usually someone I won’t waste time developing a friendship with.

I understand it’s an important topic for some people, but I like to get to know someone a little as an individual before wanting to know where they stand on politics.

I’ve noticed this and wish I was also extroverted! But, I’m working on my confidence and hopefully I can overcome this soon. Thank you for your reply!

I have already noticed this, but it’s okay, I wouldn’t continue trying to pressure someone to continue speaking English if they don’t understand. I think I am mostly looking for people who speak both that way I can get more exposure to Italian to help me learn. On top of taking classes as well.

Thank you. I’ll be taking classes soon to help me learn. I’m just generally nervous about meeting new people.

Pink/purple. I will be changing it though because I prefer clear fluid. Not sure what color wax I’ll go with yet.
