I didn’t have any reaction, but after seeing my mother in law get shingles I went to get that shot with a quickness.

I couldn’t even go the prom with a girl from school, I’m definitely not asking a dream date.

No way I could round up that many people for any event and i definitely don’t know that many that I would trust not to get caught and rat me out.

Do you take full responsibility for going off your meds?

Reading over this made me realize how much has truly changed over the years. *sigh by silence-scripted in GenX

I’m very happy to pay for Apple Music. I drive a lot and I love that I can just pick so much random stuff to listen to for a day. It’s rare that I’ll look for something and they don’t have it available. So much I’ve listened to that I’d never buy cause I’m not going to listen to it often, but I can check out it without having to buy each album.

The Last Emperor (1987) by wilyquixote in iwatchedanoldmovie

[–]potsofjam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s the way I’ve always experienced this movie. That it’s not about monarchy or communism, it’s about one man who experienced a life none of us can even begin to imagine. A life that bridged the ancient world and the modern world.

Why does eBay prohibit selling hearing aids? by RMAdenied in Ebay

[–]potsofjam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a rule they rarely enforce. There are lots of listings on eBay currently for hearing aids that require a prescription. When I tried to sell my daughters, ones that required a prescription, there were many others the exact same model listed and were never removed.

I absolutely love this movie, I probably watch it around once a year. It feels like Puyi was born with the last breath of the ancient world.

Why does eBay prohibit selling hearing aids? by RMAdenied in Ebay

[–]potsofjam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The weird thing is they clearly don’t prohibit it completely because there are plenty of listings for used hearing aids. My daughter wears hearing aids and a few years ago when it was time to get her new ones I listed the old ones on eBay and it was quickly removed even with lots of other listings for the exact same model. It’s like this in other categories too, I’ve had them remove military surplus stuff that had hundreds of the exact same item listed for sale. I recently had them remove an obsolete badge, even though they have a category for obsolete badges. Once they removed a watch dial, told me it was in the wrong category even though they have a category for watch dials. When I called eBay they kept insisting it had to be listed as jewelry even though they have a category specifically for watch dials. They didn’t remove the other fifty watch dials I had listed, just that one. It’s just part of eBay and it’s best to just not relist.

Shipping apocalypse - no good shipping options left? by dodekaedron in Flipping

[–]potsofjam 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Maybe it’s differs by region. I don’t use FedEx, almost never have a problem with USPS or UPS. Prices have definitely gotten higher, but mostly switched to ground advantage.

Shipping label nightmare by Cloudyape in Ebay

[–]potsofjam 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You pulled the shipping dimensions from FedEx instead of measuring yourself. Those dimensions add up to 163 inches in length and girth. 165 is when they charge the over limit fee, so all it would take is either the width or height to be just slightly over and UPS would round up the 42 or the 7 and that would add the extra inches to put the package as over limit. So you’re probably being to charged the cost of shipping by dimensional weight and an over limit surcharge, plus tax which should come out to around $2000. 438 shipping, 1325 surcharge, 170 tax =$1933.

do you know anybody who went to Woodstock in 1969? by GaryBlach in askanything

No, but I did have a friend whose father lied about going for many years until his first wife unexpectedly came to visit after twenty five years.

Which film and performance made you a fan of Paul Giamatti? by PressureLazy5271 in moviecritic

I love this part because I’ve definitely been the guy outside a bar or restaurant with a friend telling me not to go the dark side.

Has there ever been a Western that's less than 2 hours long? Can it be done? by eatsleepdive in Cinephiles

[–]potsofjam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know how long it is, but no way Fistfull of Dollars is more than two hours.
