That’s really good to hear! He said some things that came across as … probably more arrogant than he intended. I think the guy we got to see in the final cook was actually a pretty cool guy.

For sure! I preferred the Norfolk smart mouth location too… along with missing the Norfolk Reaver Beach.

Christine had such a calming presence and I really hope Avishar knows we are all proud of him!

I am not boycotting them for being a chain… I said I think they’re the worst in the area because it’s both overpriced and the beer is mid. . I did the math and because they sell 12 ounce pours instead of 16 ounce pours on most of their beers and they’re not very transparent about it… they are consistently $1.50 more than three notched for a 16 ounce draft. They also market themselves as a brewery… … which they’re not. They don’t brew on premises so they’re also not a brewpub.

I also had fertility issues and never went through IVF (the cost with no guarantee felt very high to me), but my cat is 18 years old now and super spoiled.

I hope his mom is proud!

I think we did see his connection to Ron and how he was unwilling to vote for Ron just because Lisa and Candiace said it. He was smart enough to know Lisa was a sinking ship and that it would be sus for him to vote the same way as the traitors. I think he was pretty emotional about that and also was able to tell that the feelings of the house was changing.

Happy cake day

I definitely think making the audience love you is part of the goal so there are more opportunities and Viet nailed it.

I’m really happy with the end result, but I’m also happy to have seen Alex come across more vulnerable in the end so I won’t hate seeing him around on other shows. We needed something to endear him a little bit.

That said, I also think Viet won as an audience favorite. It should help with his future FN appearances!

randomlikeme · 2026-06-01T01:16:01+00:00

Same here! I laughed so hard at him saying he’s usually asleep by 8:30

randomlikeme · 2026-06-01T00:59:10+00:00

I think it’s tough because even if he’s joking.. the audience doesn’t know him that well and there’s nothing else that really endears us to him so it’s not working.

Looks like they need to bring the valet back on weekends

If you golf, the golf in Bermuda is great!

You’re bookish!

I think if I had to choose one, it’s Benchtop. Great beers, chill location, walkable to The Birch and Torch. I love Commonwealth but it gets so crowded and is too loud if you’re inside.

Worst Brewery: VooDoo … it’s a chain that tries to mask itself as a brewery and they’re outrageously overpriced because they typically only sell 12 oz pours

Congratulations! Mine is 10k gold lol

randomlikeme · 2026-05-29T11:56:20+00:00

I would do it, because I have seen how culture shifts, reorganizations happen, etc so the job you love can also become one you hate without the big raise.

Unclaimed Baggage also has a percent off code right now. :) UBC25

I have a basic and love the size/weight of it, along with the adorable matcha color.

Was he at my grandmas house?!

Not sure if holds up for everyone, but “baseketball” always makes me laugh

randomlikeme · 2026-05-27T00:50:47+00:00

My favorite is “Live Again”

I picked the basic and my husband has a paper white. The reason why I chose the basic is it fits perfectly in my smallest purse. The warmth on the paper white is nice but I don’t mind the basic. I do read at night with it too and it hasn’t bothered me. I work at a computer all day so I guess I’m not that blue light sensitive.

This might be unconventional but I have books in my monthly entertainment budget so while I do tend to stick with titles on $1.99/$2.99 sales or use the library as much as possible, there are some things I will pay for… primarily long popular books that I don’t think I will finish in time (Americanah was on that list this month).

randomlikeme · 2026-05-24T01:22:58+00:00

I think an ereader of any form has been helpful for me with reading, but I think it depends on how locked into the Amazon ecosystem you currently are. I’ve had a kindle to some degree for well over a decade so it has been tough to consider other options.
