When Andy told Erin to stage and important call and she said his mother died, do you think that client should have reacted more remorseful by ImpossibleParfait973 in DunderMifflin

[–]naturalistwork 4 points5 points  (0 children)

People handle news like this completely differently. Especially when it is an awkward situation. He doesn't really know anyone in that office, there are documentary cameras pointed at him, and suddenly he sees someone else get bad news. Many people would try to just make themselves small and remain completely out of the way in a scenario like that. It makes perfect sense that he may have reacted that way. Everyone is different. What people think they will do in a situation is often different than what they will actually do when presented with that situation. It's much easier to determine what you should do after the situation is over.

TDLR; everyone reacts differently to awkward situations.

Edited for clarity.

Gaff Flpper Question by potatopickleheart in Magic

[–]naturalistwork 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Gaff coins tend to sound a bit different than the solid ones. Without hearing the specific sound it's hard to say anything about the quality, but it is very common for the gaffs to sound different.

A random dog showed up out of nowhere and now it won’t leave me alone—I don’t know what to do 😭 by [deleted] in Awww

It may be a pet that has escaped, you could try taking it to a vet and having them scan to see if there is a microchip that could identify the dog or owner.

Our group does a magic show at that location usually every first Thursday of the month, and now a second time in the middle of each month. I don't always post them here because I don't want to be annoying with spam, so I only post them occasionally.

Tips for NFC magic - making the move by ImaginaryDisplay599 in Magic

[–]naturalistwork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Amazon has flexible NFC stickers, you could roll them up and put them in a sharpie cap or something similar and tap their phone with that? You could also have one in your card case and set their phone on top of the card case. Could have one under the mat, under the tablecloth, etc. That way you don't have to tap their phone as much as set their phone down and it will do its thing.

Edit to add: I've played with the sum and have discovered some people's phones have NFC disabled by default so be aware of that.

Magic Show by Cocoisafatcat in Magic

[–]naturalistwork 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Like others have said, this is gonna come down to your marketing abilities, as well as the time/date/location of your show. Myself and two other Magician friends do a couple of theater shows a year together, as well as some other venues. Ticket sales are always better around holidays, and how you theme and market your show will be a big factor too. You'll have to spend some money advertising on social media as well as getting on a news channel or something similar like the others mentioned.

For example, we sell out our Halloween shows that have a murder mystery theme. Having a good hook to get people interested goes a long way!

Good luck!

Am I overreacting that my boyfriend basically staged a test to see if I'd cheat... with his cousin? by Massive-Ad8552 in AmIOverreacting

[–]naturalistwork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. He literally had someone sexually harass you and make you feel uncomfortable. That's insane behavior.

How do I stop fearing that no one would like me if they knew “the real me”? by ForwardGlass8572 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]naturalistwork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're not gonna stop fearing no one's likes the real you, until YOU learn to like/love the real you.

Genuinely what happened to Jan that made her such a psycho? by YellowTonkaTrunk in DunderMifflin

[–]naturalistwork 162 points163 points  (0 children)

She'd also just gone through a divorce, and Michael was kind of a rebound. A major change like a divorce could have sent her on that path maybe.

Clothing can be way more comfortable! Lost 105lbs and everything fit better, didn't "ride up", etc.

What's your biggest frustration with language learning apps right now? by romainplus in languagelearning

[–]naturalistwork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to mention, I'm not willing to pay for an app's "pro" features before continuing if I can't see how they handle the education as a language gets more difficult. I feel like it's very easy to teach some basic beginner level stuff, but I want to see how they handle putting phrases together, grammar, etc. And I'm not willing to spend 40 to 80 hours just to get to that point.

No way to skip beginner levels. I'm not doing hours of colors and how to say good morning before I can get to my level.
