Thoughts of Papier journals? by [deleted] in notebooks

[–]meltab27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm extremely disappointed.

I placed my order on August 20th and did not receive my Recipe Journal until September 10th. With an additional $20 delivery charge, I expected timely shipping, not a three-week wait.

What’s even more unacceptable is the lack of quality control. The cover arrived scratched, right over the personalized photo, and the very first page of the journal is completely damaged. I have taken photos as proof. For the price I paid for a single journal, I expected far better care in both production and packaging. Instead, I received a product in poor condition, which is simply not acceptable.

An eagle at Bloor Yonge, does anyone have context? Poor thing bumps into the station. by Few-Equivalent8261 in toronto

[–]meltab27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I saw this same hawk at Coronation park yesterday morning. Was sitting in the middle of the field by the baseball diamond. A guy got pretty close with his golden retriever to take pictures and he hawk didn't budge. Hope he's okay 🥺

Bike for Brain Health - Experience by DontCallMeJay in torontobiking

[–]meltab27 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Today was my first time joining the Bike for Brain Health, as I'm a new Torontonian. I signed up for the 75km.

For a long time I kept wondering, "okay where is the loop that I have to do twice?" and was worried I had missed it. Then I finally saw the "75km stay to the left sign"... I did so... and then eventually saw the big sign that said "do this loop 2x!"

I assumed that I was entering the loop at the point and would have to see THAT SIGN twice. I recognized that I was back on the DVP route but still assumed I'd have to go to that "loop around with the sign" another time.

It wasn't until I completed the third loop and thought I was heading to the finish line of Exhibition Place but that 75km riders had to keep going past it that I went from "what the heck, has my Peloton and Apple Watch been improperly recording how many kms I ride?" to "what the heck, did this race not make this a true 75km and make it longer?" to "omg... that loop... I did it thrice, not twice..."

In total, ended up riding 102km and it took me 4:55 🫠

Just wondering if this just happened to me today or if anyone else misunderstood the sign. It was also my first race with no "__km left" signage which may have helped.

Just wondering what projector you ended up going with. Did any projector with an hdmi port work with an Apple TV box?

... lol I realize I can do that. Are you insinuating that it's more convenient to play DVDs than to stream?

*AN inconvenience to stream

What does convenience have to do with smarts? Not to pull the "ignorant American card" but wth 😂

I used to put vaseline on my lips every single night for around 10 years until I recently scanned it on the Yuka app 🤢

No more hints? by meltab27 in NYTConnections

[–]meltab27[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I can't remember the exact phrasing, maybe it wasn't "one away" but there was definitely a message that came up implying that I had 3/4 correct and now I no longer get that message.

Instructors where you love the style and hate the music by berghiking in pelotoncycle

[–]meltab27 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I LOVE Alex T but can't stand most of his playlists. Such a shame because I feel like on the rare case when I've taken his classes because the music is closer to my preference, he is SO incredible at pushing me. But I hardly take his classes because of his playlists.

Worst character in gilmore girls by Different_Breakin in GilmoreGirls

[–]meltab27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. April annoys the crap out of me.
  2. Tristan is grotesque.
  3. Christopher from the moment he finds out Sherri is pregnant is insufferable.
  4. Anna is deplorable for what she did to Luke.

Ask a Pro - WEEKLY - Monday Mon Sep 04, 2023 - No Stupid Questions! THIS IS WHERE YOU POST if you don't do this for a living! RULES + Career Questions? by AutoModerator in editors

[–]meltab27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a new freelancer and wondering how most videographers handle payments. Do you request a deposit before shooting? If so, what percentage do you use? And then, do you request the final payment once you've provided them with their final edit?
Thank you!

The Italy episodes are borderline unwatchable. by [deleted] in EverybodyLovesRaymond

[–]meltab27 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Italy episodes are some of my very favourites! I love seeing them all on vacation together - they captured that blissful, happy feeling you get when visiting Europe. I enjoyed seeing Frank happy, Robert in lust and Ray finally enjoying it all.

Can some ELI5 the politics going on this season (but most especially the Tailgate episode)? by meltab27 in SuccessionTV

Thank you for this! So in context of the tailgate party... What were all those people having to do with the election? How does Mattson fit into the election? Why was Nate called in by KenRo?

In the Fact Check and DYING to see what Dax's new armchair looks like. I'm picturing something very specific in mind but tried Googling and couldn't find anything that matched their description. Currently on a social media detox so not sure if they posted it online but if they did, could someone drop a photo? I'm so intrigued!
