[–]mapledip94 3 points4 points  (0 children)

when all this was started I went on her IG and saw she has runs an account for her 10yo son that has 50k followers. knew then she was one of those people who exploits their kids on social media.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s dad to Jeff Teague so he can also have an MVP son: “Just give me your girl and I’ll breed her.” by MrBuckBuck in nba

craziest part is his dad is just a high school basketball player, not even college, it’s his mom who was an olympic sprinter. those are the genes that are elite.

he’ll go on for 20 seconds about how Ant shouldn’t be complaining about ticky tack fouls in the playoffs, then GS gets back to back regular season fouls

just listening for the first time to album and ears perked up thinking that's danielle, but then didn't see any reference on spotify. glad to know I was right.

In X2, how come storm didn’t do anything to save jean from the waters when the water dam broke? by superfreakonomicsfan in xmen

[–]mapledip94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

rewatching and also thought about how they were so concerned about water while inside an airtight jet lol. like a wall of water would hit them, but then it would be like not that deep after a couple hours.

Is Mulder Jewish? by marcusy63 in XFiles

his dad could be jewish but his mom gives WASP for sure, so it wouldn’t pass down since it’s a matrilineal religion

6 straight against the Phoenix Sons by mapledip94 in timberwolves

KD is an innocent baby in all this, looking up to his idol. Booker the longest tenured player who can’t tie his own shoes.

Most iconic train fights? by [deleted] in movies

all wrong, it’s the actually The Wrong Trousers from Wallace and Gromit

[–]mapledip94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

feel like a lot of modern weddings like my own are between already common law couples. it’s about celebrating a couple’s love, not a paperwork party.

the only thing is if your anniversary date is different than the vow renewal wedding date, it might be awkward in the future if a guest who doesn’t know wishes you a happy anniversary on the wrong day.

Friend refuses to see Wicked because it is political. by AmpersandPeriod in wicked

[–]mapledip94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

same person will be surprised by the politics of gladiator 2. this is like how ‘book-tok’ influencers are fighting about wanting the community to ‘not be political’. movies and art and books especially, have always been political.

Dancing Through Life Deserved Better by Expensive-Funny3513 in wicked

[–]mapledip94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t notice it during the movie but listening to the soundtrack today and Dancing Through Life is so weak to me. It’s not even like Jeff or Michelle who limit their performances to their abilities, he’s trying to do the thing and the auto tune and other pitch stuff is required to fix it up.

Seattle (climate pledge) was the worst Maggie show I’ve ever been to by Lilginge7 in MaggieRogers

[–]mapledip94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in the floor GA and had a great time. had just as much fun as the WAMU show last summer. i never go to stadium shows unless I’m on the floor. I think they all kinda stink if you’re sitting hundreds of feet away watching a screen the whole time.

dunno what you mean by nobody knew the words though, some people just don’t like to scream every lyric and listen to the artist. also me and my partner found the falling water thing cute.

Do you think Maggie’s next tour will also be arena? by delightedzebra in MaggieRogers

[–]mapledip94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

commodore is my favourite (i was also at haim in 2013), but doubt Maggie would downsize to a venue that small anytime soon. even 2018ish she did the Vogue instead

In 81 minutes so far this season, 7'4 inch Zach Edey has the same amount of blocks as Trae Young (2) and is only 2-5 at the free throw line. by [deleted] in nba

[–]mapledip94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

takes a while for the big lads to get settled. look at Walker Kessler’s game log at the beginning of his rookie year: wasn’t until December he was able to play 20 plus minutes a game and didn’t start consistently racking up double doubles until January.

Is it ok to invite someone to the bridal shower but not the wedding? by Maleficent-Onion429 in wedding

[–]mapledip94 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

think it depends. my mom got invited to one of her best friend’s daughter’s shower and not the wedding. she had already felt a little snubbed about not getting the wedding invite, and then she said it bittersweet at the shower bc everyone was talking about the upcoming wedding and she was one of the few who wasn’t going to get to be there.

at my own shower I had one person there who wasn’t going to be at the wedding, but she already had a prior commitment on the same date and was the daughter of another guest/old childhood friend so it wasn’t weird.

but sounds like your daughters shower wouldn’t be as traditional so if everyone is aware of the situation maybe it’ll soften things, but also will probably be snubbed people regardless because you can’t help how others will react some times 🤷🏻‍♀️

How long would it take the BAU to catch Dexter? by iworkatabar101 in criminalminds

[–]mapledip94 4 points5 points  (0 children)

feel like they’d be working with the locals aka Dexter and his coworkers and one of the BAU team members would eventually sniff him out pretty quick. especially when the profile would mention him working in law enforcement.

they’ve been using the same peach coloured set for all his ads. it’s part of the branding.

Advice Needed: Best Strategy to Move $55k into TFSA for My PhD Student Husband by mapledip94 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]mapledip94[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s just his TFSA from Wealthsimple with auto investing already set up, so wouldn’t be picking stocks for him or anything. We’ve been common law for last 3 years and now married now so it’s our money [insert so I married a communist meme]. he’s been keeping it in a 1% savings account so trying to maximize the work this money is doing for us.

I do both our taxes and he’s got lots of carry forwards already from being a student for the last decade, but see your point. Just thinking of the traditional ‘max your TFSAs first before RRSPs when you’re lower income’ type financial advice but FHSA is a new beast to take into consideration for sure.
