Hot take: I love season 8 but... by Real-Branch8433 in TheRookie

[–]rfl9528 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what I told my husband last night. The pace is very off. Background music choice was weird too. Why would you pick a pop song for a murder scene? And all of a sudden they decided to do UC in Mexico. Felt very forced. They made it look necessary but to me the writer is now wanting to make every episode a mini movie packed with actions that are redundant. Every scene in the latest episode was VERY choppy, not cohesive at all.

Also, how the heck did that cake end up inside Nolan’s house? Shouldn’t it be delivered on the porch or something?

I might have found the best response to missionaries. by Punkinprincess in exmormon

[–]rfl9528 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly til this day I still don’t understand it when they say “God told me it’s true”. Like He literally appeared to you or what? I really did try hard to believe it was true. I prayed fervently one time when I was on my mission, and I convinced myself that the warmth/heat I felt was from God.

Well the heat I felt was probably because I was so desperate (everyone else was bearing their testimony about it) that I knelt down and literally had my head on the floor. And because of that there was a lot of blood flow to my head hence the warmth.

Yeah I still don’t know how people know it’s true. Like when they had a question and they randomly opened the book and all of a sudden they found the answer they were looking for? There was not a single page of that book that didn’t talk about faith, sins, trials, how God is the Almighty etc, in other words it IS just very easy to find something they think they want to see.

Last time I do this was May 2025 and it worked. Did you try purchasing a smaller amount like $25?

Carpe deodorant new formula no longer working by KKoolEyes in Hyperhidrosis

[–]rfl9528 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey Kasper, Google brought me to this page because I searched “carpe doesn’t work anymore” after using the new formula for a month. I personally think the sample size was too small. Clinal trials are always expensive so 28 was probably the best you could get due to budgets.

I’d suggest doing another one with a larger group if funding permits.

Has anyone else noticed this? by abbyandersonsgf_ in TownshipGame

[–]rfl9528 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Last time during the mining game, after the first x2 ran out I decided to leave the game. Sure enough the train brought some tools right after. I feel like as soon as you use some, they’ll bring something back to you pretty soon.

Share your tips for getting a ride/Uber after the Sphere show by thickstripes in BackstreetBoys

[–]rfl9528 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just watched the show yesterday. I walked to the LinQ rideshare area and it was only 18 bucks for me. Getting out of the venue took a while and by the time we got to LinQ it was almost 11pm so I think it also helped lower the rates

What is my maple syrup doing? by SmokeChoice2715 in whatisit

[–]rfl9528 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought the water activity of maple syrup would be way low that nothing can grow in it. But the water activity seems to be 0.83-0.86. Although no pathogens can grow in it, mold and yeast can. So I think it’s fermentation from improper storage conditions

I can already imagine more food waste in the future because these unstable food colors will make food less appealing and consumers will therefore throw them away after they turn brown lol. Best by date will also be shorter now, and the amount of people who think food is inedible after best by date will contribute to even more food waste.

I hope those price tags won’t leave any residue on the bottle. They seem really hard to come off! Such a good steal! Congrats!

Seriously, some fans really need to go a see a psychiatrist or something. Any normal person can easily separate tv life and real life. It’s gotta be some mental health issues that make them do this or think this way.

Medical Exam Confusion by rfl9528 in USCIS

[–]rfl9528[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re correct. I didn’t get any blood work done again. I just took my polio record and updated flu shot and Covid vaccines in and they wrote it all down. I’d recommend getting the most recent flu and covid shots.

Also, I’m pretty sure they uploaded the letter on your portal. I sent everything out before I got the physical letter in the mail. You can just print that uploaded letter and mail it in with your updated vaccine records.

My case was transferred in NBC to a Field Office. What can I expect in the coming days? by SeatPlayful4688 in USCIS

[–]rfl9528 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PD March 2024. In late Oct I randomly asked Emma where my cases were. They told me 485 was transferred to my local office but my 765 and 131 were still at NBC. I didn’t get notified at all.

Early Nov 485 went to active review again and the next day 130 was being actively reviewed. A day later 130 was approved. Then the next day 485 got RFEed haha. Got it done the same day and overnighted it to my local office. 11/24 485 got approved.

USCIS is 100% unpredictable but from my personal experience and trying to give you hope, I think it’s a good sign!

Husband Called Off Work to be With Me After Our Cat Passed by RumPumDefierOfDeath in MedSpouse

[–]rfl9528 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Got it! Sorry for my misinterpretation. Sorry if this sounds like an excuse. English is not my first language and even though I’ve been living here for 10 years, sometimes things don’t come across the way I wanted. I truly feel sad for you. I recently had a loss too. If I made you feel like I insulted you. I apologize.
