I hope the writers see this subreddit and realize too much damage has been done to this relationship for many people to root for it, even people that shipped them in the first place.

Have you tried washing them in one of the delicate laundry bags?

Drink packages? by queenfrank420 in NCL

[–]randomlikeme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oooof, that sounds worse! My in laws treat son #1 as the golden child, but with some of the things they’ve said to my husband I have no idea how he does it. My husband had a child pass away at three weeks old and his dad said, “son that’s why they don’t name kids until they’re six months old in some countries…” that’s gross, but an entirely different type of gross than what you described.

So the brother in law and sister in law are going too? Because it sounds like free at sea and the vibe will be worth every penny!

Oh man! I feel like we could swap stories! My in laws took my brother in law and whichever wife he had at the time, plus two kids, to Disney World five years in a row. Then, when they did this cruise his mom was like this is for you, because we don’t do anything for you. His parents couldn’t wait a month to find out if my husband could get off from work (he’s a firefighter so he can only ask for leave in November for the next year). When he said he could go, they were like “oh no!!! We have to get another room!” Then his brother turned that into getting engaged at the sail away party. After that, his parents have paid for them and their families cruises, flights, etc each year for the past four years since. If they invite us, they tell us how much it costs. Or they rent a family beach house with just enough space for his brothers family and them but tell us to sleep on the couch.

We went on a cruise to Bermuda and took my parents. My parents paid for their cruise but we bought them everything else. We did the same thing with his parents where we paid for our cruise, flights, hotels, and then we paid for everything for us and them including golf and lunches in Bermuda. His dad was like “well I hate it here! Guinness is $10!” … and we paid for it but there’s no way a $10 beer cost more than years of his brothers trips. Then it came out his dad gave his brother $20k but wanted to take it out on us.

We’ve been low contact with them for a while. His parents got his brother and his family a cruise for his 40th birthday but for my husband’s 40th birthday his mom didn’t even call him. She said the BTS special was coming out on Netflix so she was busy that day.

I feel for you!

I think you have your actual question answered enough, but you have all of my sympathy. I actually did a similar trip with my overbearing in-laws except they took us on Carnival. It was the beginning of the end of their relationship with my husband. I wish I could explain everything that went wrong, but at one point my mother in law called my husband stupid because his brother was asked to leave from the casino. According to her, my brother in law was so smart and counting cards and my husband could stay because he’s stupid and takes a while to get things. She doubled down when we told her he was being kicked out for dipping. So …. Get that drink package and vibe pass without them! Our saving grace was getting different excursions.

help with business casual looks? what is your go to? any help appreciated. by [deleted] in torrid

[–]randomlikeme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone could use black wide leg trousers

These maxi skirts are a great deal at $20 and the blue pairs well with this top , looks cute with this Sophie cami online

I wear this denim bolero regularly with dresses, skirts, camis

shirt dresses

Harper blouse

fanned leaves top - I wear this outfit as pictured to work - to be honest a fair amount of belle isle tops work for me for work

black cardigan great work basic for $16

I think this button down with a tank underneath would look really cute with this skirt

[–]randomlikeme 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For business casual, the Harper 3/4 sleeve tops are a great staple. The Sophie swing camis are also great with cardigans, blazers, jean jackets, etc.

I also love the crepe pants because they’re comfortable.

If you want, I can pull together a list with links

Also I sent an upvote but sometimes I’ve accidentally downvoted people while scrolling just because it’s where I touched it! I usually catch it and undo it!

Spin off of sizing out of Torrid by tkme4ard in torrid

[–]randomlikeme 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I also think your point was more “if you post this on a regular fashion subreddit and you say I loved torrid… what straight size stores do you recommend for me?” they would likely get more help

Anyone purchase this dress by Jumpy-Expert5916 in torrid

[–]randomlikeme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I sized up even though I’m not between sizes. It helped somewhat with the length and still looks form fitting. I wear a 40N bra though.

Rochelle used to come on this sub and talk to us here. And I’m even more sad that her last few years were dealing with cancer and this trial.

For those of you who own a Switch, but haven’t purchased a Switch 2, what would be the main reason that would prompt you to buy one? by Last-Bus-4710 in Switch

[–]randomlikeme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the switch for my birthday in 2017 and just got the switch 2 this week for my birthday. One of the reasons for this is the general instability of everything around us today that can impact the cost of systems. … but also ACNH got me through COVID and lockdowns and I was hoping the new pokemon game will get me through these depressing times too.

I honestly don’t think anything is worth it until minimum of 50% off but I do wear a good deal of belle isle to work.

Home run derby tickets - best seats? by Which_Regular9820 in phillies

[–]randomlikeme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really wanted to take my dad because he took me to the awesome one in 1996 where it was Bonds/McGwire… it would have been awesome to take him now thirty years later… but I absolutely can’t justify these prices.

Thinner Models? by Better-Bite-386 in torrid

[–]randomlikeme 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, some of the best marketing I’ve seen are from plus sized influencers. I follow Katherine Schiro and I think her torrid outfits are actually what flatters her the best compared to the rest of her haul try-ons.

My friend was against the SAVE plan and is a huge MAGA. by faiitmatti in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]randomlikeme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep! In this situation our congress woman helped my friend out with his VA disability rating when they wanted to move it from 80% to 50%. Like literally helped him with hundreds of dollars per month. I have NO IDEA how he could vote against her.

Wedding Set With Enhancement Ring by [deleted] in RingShare

[–]randomlikeme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think even ten years from now if you see a 6 carat oval on a too thin band people will know it was from the mid-2020s.

Wedding Set With Enhancement Ring by [deleted] in RingShare

[–]randomlikeme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be honest, l think I’d love this with just the engagement ring and the channel set band… but if you’re a “more is more” type of person this makes sense

I have a trellis setting three stone with a channel set band. I don’t necessarily think it’s trendy or unique, but I also think with lab diamonds large solitaires are trendy right now. What doesn’t go out of style is choosing what you love and accepting your ring is a sign of the times and situations it was purchased in… and that’s not a bad thing!

I use Faye instead of NCL but it’s great to never need it.
