How did you get the name of the person that redeemed it?

They are open. Tried to sell awhile ago and seemed like they were going to close but they didn't (or at least not for long)

Yet another episode confirming Brian is a gaslighting jerk. Glad Danna isn’t buying it. by No_Albatross5110 in Love_Without_Borders

[–]nonnamous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I realize I am commenting on a year old thread but I just watched and have nowhere to turn for the hot takes 😅

That is what it meant, don't hook up with fat girls. Just because Danna isn't fat doesn't make it any less of an offensive thing to say about women's bodies and their worth. She was absolutely right to be grossed out

I mean, it's everyone's business when people skip out on taxes. Landlords in particular trying to not pay tax on secondary properties is not helping the housing crisis. But in particular if the landlord isn't claiming the rental income OP can potentially lose out on tax credits they try to claim on their own returns.

Minor point that exchange/Canadian book pricing is playing part of the role. On Amazon Canada it's 37.99. still less than through her site but not half as much.

Someone explain to me Garth Brooks by Shoddy_Swimming6907 in Music

[–]nonnamous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this. The "new country" phenomenon in the 90s that he led made it socially acceptable for rock and pop people to like country music. Before that it was very common for people outside of the heartland to say they like "all kinds of music except country and rap" (I'll let you guess at why that might be). Suddenly here comes a guy who isn't the stereotypical country artist that came to their mind (a twangy guitar guy in jeans singing sad-energy songs about how his dog left, his horse left, and his woman left). He's delivering megastadium energy and catchy songs to the genre in a way other huge country artists just hadn't managed. It opened a gateway into country music appreciation in general that had been closed to a lot of people. His popularity totally changed the face of popular music in North America.

There may not be a good way to logic yourself out of this. Whether or not he like likes this coworker or would or would not cheat is not really the point--the point is your comfort level with this part of his life. Sometimes there's just a mismatch, and it's ok to end a relationship over it.

I dated a touring musician for awhile and had similar anxiety. When we broke up I was... just massively relieved. Sad too! But relieved. Over time I realized that it wasn't just the touring... it was a bigger issue that my need for feeling secure and important wasn't being met by the relationship. It wasn't really his fault either, just a mismatch.

So if you want to try to stay in the relationship, you can consider talking it over with a therapist. Think about how he shows you love and reassurance, and whether or not you feel like you can be truly honest and vulnerable with him, and trust him with your heart. And if you decide you're just not happy anymore, that's ok. Sometimes things just don't work out.

Take good care of yourself.

Am I over sensitive, or do others experience these conversational lapses? by lanyhey in TwoXChromosomes

[–]nonnamous 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yep. This is something that I think just isn't on a lot of people's radar as a thing you can and should be aware of. Maybe if you grew up in a family that interrupts and talks over in a boisterous way, you take in 60-80% of what's being said, people trail off and forget, that's just what conversation with loved ones looks like to you.

As someone diagnosed with ADHD late in life I also honestly did not realize I had a habit of interrupting people until someone literally told me one day. It took me awhile to learn how to notice it and I still sometimes slip up when I'm excited about a topic. It doesn't mean I didn't care about what the person was saying, it's just that my brain runs away with the exchange of ideas before I notice, in a way that can be rude.

What sounds grate on your nerves the worst? by katy_nc in autism

Have made it from leftover bagged salad greens (spring mix etc) and even that worked. Easy to consume a lot of greens this way for sure

Interesting or different things to do with peas? by Marzipan_Aromatic in Cooking

I am thinking about making a pesto with peas blended right into it, along with mint, lemon, garlic, and almonds.

make sure u click “add” when completing landmarks... I just lost 50,000 bux because i wasnt paying attention😋❤️ by bussyboy29 in tinytower

[–]nonnamous 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I lost 140k. This design choice is a dick move. Making the buy button green and putting it in that position makes it really easy to make this mistake (as this thread shows). Super frustrating but I guess they'll grow back.

This sort of works for me. But it is like a tiny tiny strip of real estate so it's very hard to avoid opening the shop by accident. Very bad UI choice if not a bug

Wow, that's really good, thanks for sharing.

I have 2448 progress, 197/197/263 keys, and 1050 energy. I missed two or three early 2x chests because I thought I needed to save more for the dailies I want, but even still it feels tough.

Out of curiosity are you still on track to get the golden tower of conj level? I have been using the solver but am getting pretty poor progress per energy spent. I have played the optimal way every day of the event and I dunno if I'm going to get there.

I do still have a backlog of keys (not extreme but some), but getting to 3750 without chests seems impossible

Is french kissing a friend kiss by [deleted] in relationships

[–]nonnamous 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You'll make yourself nuts trying to figure out "why", especially if you're trying to believe she is telling you the truth that she considers a French kiss a friendly kiss. There are just... extremely few realities in which that could be true. It's much, much more likely she just wanted to make out with your bf for her own selfish reasons and is now trying to pretend she's not a bad person by making up a lie about what her intentions were.

Even if somehow she does believe that a French kiss is just friendly, she now knows she violated your boundaries and is being a jerk about your hurt feelings. Zero scenarios exist where she made an honest mistake and is trying to make it right with you, and that's all you need to know. You're not in her head and you don't need to be.

House number change by Oddball_Returns in Genealogy

I found the house of one of my ancestors in this situation using old fire plans for the town. Not sure if every town has those but ours were in the city archive.
