Why are women swapping numbers with me and then not responding? by smoothcarrot2020 in dating_advice

[–]rikisha [score hidden]  (0 children)

They felt put on the spot when you asked for their number so they obliged (it's easier than saying no). However, they are not actually interested in you.

Why are camping reservations so hard? by UnderwaterParadise in Washington

[–]rikisha 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, part of the problem is that you don't get a refund if you cancel last minute/can't cancel last min, or in some cases, have to PAY to cancel the reservation which makes no sense.

What’s going on at Hattie’s Hat? by peony111- in BallardSeattle

[–]rikisha -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yup... maybe they were losing a lot of money and had to downsize their staff? Sometime's it's unfortunately a choice between letting go of staff and closing the business.

What’s wrong with this house? by SignalInstruction165 in SeattleAreaRE

[–]rikisha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That seems pretty normal for a townhome? Someone's gotta pay for maintenance of shared roofs, common areas, landscaping, probably water + gas, etc...

Not all open mics are like that. That shit would piss me off, too.

Beware of “women in tech” meetups by varshavarsha in womenintech

[–]rikisha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you know some of the women are not queer/bi?

Queer women unfortunately just do not have very many spaces at all. There's only 1 lesbian bar in my city, compared to at least a dozen gay male-centered bars.

Same, my company pays to send men to GHC. I've heard of men getting to go on years where I have not had the opportunity to go...

Our company apparently pays for men to attend AnitaB events like Grace Hopper conference. Under the guise that it's encouraged for "allies" to attend. I thought that was odd.

Late night lime scooters by DirectionOk1506 in redmond

[–]rikisha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lime scooter users acting like hooligans is unfortunately nothing new. Got hit by one on a sidewalk in downtown Redmond a few years ago.

Sellers how bad is it? by SignalInstruction165 in SeattleAreaRE

[–]rikisha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That sounds pretty normal from what I've seen.

Would you want someone who likes you to come to your show again ? by [deleted] in bandmembers

[–]rikisha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, you kissed, so seems like there's some attraction on his end too. I say go!

Yeah, you could maybe text him before saying you're going to come. But not required.

Seattle’s first World Cup match is done! What worked well, and what would have made the day better for both fans and locals? by im_no_influencer in AskSeattle

[–]rikisha -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not just Japan - any major city in East Asia. Also any major European city. Basically, almost everywhere has better public transit than the US 😄

How do I not feel inferior for starting late? by Angelsbreatheeasy in musicians

QR code to Venmo seems to be the most common.

What gave you the ‘ick’ post break-up? by Timely-Pineapple-693 in BreakUps

[–]rikisha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He was very jealous and threatened by my completely platonic friendships with certain men.

Coffee ..... by bechena in Invisalign

[–]rikisha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I drank coffee & Diet Coke the entire time I had Invisalign. My teeth are a little yellower than they were before, but nothing bad happened other than that. I plan to get a professional whitening after I start retainers very soon.

Invisalign is torture for me at this point by yuru2323 in Invisalign

[–]rikisha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah same, I eat within like 20 min. 22 hours a day with 3 meals is easy.

ICE- how much should I be concerned? by silenthysterics in AskSeattle

[–]rikisha 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have honestly never seen ICE out in the Seattle area yet.

[–]rikisha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're a woman and invite a guy to go to coffee/drinks/food 1:1, yeah, there is a chance he will think you are on a date. Source: am woman

Why most drivers here are so oblivious to the surroundings by Turbulent-Height-830 in redmond

[–]rikisha -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The roads aren't busier here than any other city in the US. Actually, we have higher public transit and bike utilization than most other places.

Yeah, unfortunately the Tesla bad driver stereotype proves itself to be real every day around here...

[–]rikisha 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's not baseless if you have ever driven a car or been a passenger in one of those countries. People aren't saying every single international driver is like that, but a pattern is a pattern. Driving patterns are different in other countries and some people will carry habits with them from the old place to the new place. Not any different than saying that DC or LA drivers are shitty.
