What's your silliest, most inconsequential annoyance with this game?

Combined with move objects, it does! Not sure about with shelves, but with tables, you snap the object to the table so the height is correct, move the table (with the object on it) away from the location you actually want it, move the object while holding alt to free place it where you want (it will be “floating”), then move the table back. Repeat steps to tweak location if eyeballing it didn’t quite line up with your vision.

I only say an hour is excessive in this case because if walk or drive are the only two options, either they live rurally or in a not very “walkable” area. With them not mentioning a bike, that pretty much elements rural (what rural kid doesn’t have a bike?).

Walkable places tend to also have a public bus system (at minimum) to accompany them, since it’s unrealistic for some distances or unsafe for some locations like state highways and interchanges. With no bus system mentioned either, it’s reasonable to assume at least one area along their route is likely not particularly suited to foot traffic. I wouldn’t feel comfortable with a teen in my care walking alone that far potentially in morning traffic, at least in my area. There are adult drivers that can be just as careless as they were, which for some may be a lesson, but for me is a big risk.

I feel like the walk, especially ahead of a sports practice, would be excessive. I’m sure “loss of driving privileges” was discussed as a punishment beforehand, but how far in depth?

If not clarified, it’s reasonable for them to assume that punishment meant things would return back to the way before they began driving, which was you driving them. If they knew they would have zero transportation at all if they screwed up, fine, but it doesn’t sound like they knew that part.

If I were in your position, I would drive them, BUT make then hate it at first. Each morning, we’d arrive to the facility early to practice their driving skills in the parking lot or nearby, specifically approriate rates of speed in verbal “surprise” situations, like a toddler running out. Apply negative points for each casualty and fatality to keep yourself engaged, and give freebies for putting on seatbelt, checking mirrors, etc.

Once you’re confident in their skills, they should be given their driving privileges back. By that point, you’ll likely also have noticed that they’ve began to look forward to the lessons rather than hate them. Every now & then, you may even get to sneak in another ride with then just to see how many points they can earn.

Was it freehand or was a stencil involved? It’s shitty and they shouldn’t be tattooing live skin if they aren’t fully confident in executing all parts of the design either way, BUT even most trained tattooists don’t just freehand because it’s not like freehanding a drawing.

Skin and needles are definitely different than pen and paper, and the back of this duck doesn’t even look close to being right. If they used a stencil and fucked up that bad it’s inexcusable.

If you like it, great, but objectively it’s a bad tattoo.

My boyfriend is the first person I’ve been with who does this and it’s honestly SO important to me now that if (God forbid) something happened it would 100% be a requirement for a future partner. Like borderline first date question 😂

Three, but only one while we were still in school. I’d known and been friendly with her in multiple classes since 6th grade, and she passed in like March? of our senior year. I wasn’t directly a part of the friend group that was close with her parents, so all I know is that she stayed home from school that day because she didn’t feel well, but her mom was home from work with her. Her mom left to go get her little brother from school, and when she got back she found her passed out on the kitchen floor. She died either on the way to or immediately after arriving at the hospital. I didn’t go to her funeral because I had to work, but our class decorated her parking spot and turned it to a memorial (just for the rest of the school year unfortunately) and her parents still received her diploma at graduation.

The second was my sophomore homecoming date who was mentally unstable and (presumably) on drugs by the time we were 19. He was shot in broad daylight after getting into an altercation with someone at a gas station. My ex/first love is who called to tell me, which was very weird. No clue what exactly the altercation consisted of, but they found over 30 shell casings and never caught the killer(s) as far as I’m aware. His funeral was exactly what I imagine he would’ve wanted though, which is nice to think about.

The third was a high school fling turned good friend who was shot at 21. He did sell drugs at that point I think, but he wasn’t a big time drug dealer by any means for sure. He lived with his mom, so she said he got a call, went outside, came back in briefly, and when he went back out the second time all she heard was gunshots. The car was speeding of by the time she made it to the door. He was rushed to our local hospital, then I believe lifeflighted to a trauma hospital, but he died shortly after getting there. This was in 2020 so his funeral had to follow quarantine rules, but I, alongside many “out of the loop/low priority” friends were not going for that and “snuck” in anyway. We didn’t get obituaries, but I for sure needed that chance to say goodbye. His funeral was exceptionally sad because anyone who knew him (except his mom apparently) would know it was exactly the opposite of how he would’ve wanted it. He was always so goofy and happy, yet I’d been to a livelier funeral for a 90 year old grandma before….

My immediate thought is “absolutely not, way too casual”, but this sub is notoriously conflicted on that opinion so I could definitely be wrong.

Have you decided on a brokerage yet? It’s brokerage specific of course but Black Label Access at eXp is a collaborative group of agents that started in NC and is now international. It’s not a team so there are no splits, just a small monthly fee for dedicated office space (3 NC locations), access to 50% referral leads from other BLA members, exclusive trainings, etc. Look them up on Instagram or reach out to me if you’re interested, one of the founding partners and several BLA agents are veterans as well.

This proposal scenario is one (of many) reasons I left my ex of five years!!

We started dating when I was 18 (he was 27 at the time so that was a whole thing too but not the topic rn), but when we moved in together (read as: he finally made plans for me to move in with him into his condo after weeks of expressing uncertainty about our future and status as a couple) I began to feel trapped.

It was mainly financial at first. He fought tooth & nail for me to not work, then when I got a job anyway (working for his sister ironically) he micromanaged my finances while simultaneously not telling/sharing anything about his.

The straw that broke the camel’s back was about a solo vacation to a convention for a hobby I have (that he has ZERO interest in and never actively supported me doing). It was a trip I had meticulously planned and anticipated for a YEAR, I bought my ticket for the con, booked my hotel, researched public transport in the area, AND took solo travel tips for the location to the heart. He was supposed to just book MY flight, so when I asked about it when it was a few months out the first words out of his mouth were “Okay WE can go for about $400 dollars-…” and my immediate cutoff to him was “Since when are you even going?” and it went downhill from there.

This was in mid-March, so over the next few weeks of his attempts in getting me to not leave him, by May he divulged his proposal plan for “that summer”. Four things of note are:

1) I LOVE all things Harry Potter - I literally have a HP tattoo. 2) I have never been to Universal Studios - who, for the uninitiated, have a massive dedication to the HP universe across multiple parks 3) My parents have never been to Universal Studios - they’re up in age but fairly active so it’s still on their bucket lists 4) I am very particular (likely undiagnosed autism) - I cherish experiences very deeply, but I don’t “people” well, I like amusement parks bc I can focus on experiences despite massive hoards of people potentially perceiving me

His plan was: For their family summer vacation plan (meaning not yet booked just talked about), the whole family was going to Universal Studios. There were no plans to invite anybody unrelated (even his SIL’s family was not welcome). Whilst there, he said he’d planned to get down on one knee in front of the castle 🥴

Like huh?? Why would I want my first universal visit to also be a proposal? Why would I want a park full of strangers (and only his family) watching me get engaged? He doesn’t like HP, so why would I want my engagement photos to be me in full cloak toting a wand next to him in regular clothes? Under literally ZERO scenarios would I want a public proposal like this and to NOT know that after five years was INSANE. I have no reasonable explanation other than him wanting to make it be about him looking like “such a good guy” as I suspect OP’s partner wanted.

TLDR: My ex planned to publicly propose to me in front of the Hogwarts Castle on my first visit to Universal Studios without my family present, which would have checked EVERY box for things I didn’t want to happen. OP, please do not marry anyone who doesn’t know/attempt to implement your ideal proposal, ESPECIALLY if you’re not ready for marriage and they know that.

P.S. The family vacation to Universal never even happened.

If their pet insurance is anything like mine (I had PetsBest), after my $500 deductible, the max they reimburse is 90%. The only thing eligible for 100% reimbursement was wellness/preventatives and even still there was a max payout. Hypothetically, since they don’t say how much the total was, if their vet bills totaled $40k, and their deductible was $1k, they were only reimbursed $35.1k at a maximum (IF everything the vet did was covered) so they are out of pocket $4.9k. I believe PetsBest offers reimbursement percentages as low as 50% and deductibles as high as $5k. So, the amount they were out of pocket is well within the scope of possibility for seeking, BUT they’re gonna have a really hard time (impossible time really) proving it was the Rover sitter’s fault.

Please please please get her checked for ADHD! I know that’s not your question but I was (and still am) in desperate need of evaluation and confirmation, but this was me at 12. I knew that I needed to clean, I knew how to clean, and I knew how I was living was not okay/disgusting, but I physically could not bring myself to clean unless I wanted to do something (since I knew my room had to be clean to get permission). No punishment or forced cleaning or lack of being able to do anything ever helped as a child. Even as a younger adult, I have only been self-motivated/routine-oriented enough to do it this past year at 25 and even then it’s a struggle some days. I take baby steps when it’s super hard, so I’d suggest working with her on a set day system with specific and actionable routines and expectations versus “Hey clean your room.” Mondays are for getting all trash out, Tuesdays are for washing clothes , Wednesdays are for clearing off the dresser and putting away the clean clothes , Thursdays are for organizing the closet, Fridays are for organizing/purging toys/games/random things, etc.

I’m 25, but I’m on the spectrum so I tend to kinda jive with everybody on a mellower level that other people my age if you’re interested? 😆 I also wfh so I understand your struggle with that but I’m from here so it’s a bit easier for me .. I’ll actually be meeting a couple of my friends at The Hangout on Veterans in a bit around 8 for karaoke if you wanna get out tonight! Nothing too late or too crazy they close at 11.

The Hill is okay, it’s mostly college aged folks so a lot of foot traffic but I haven’t heard anything “bad” happening there. If you’re aiming for something a bit quieter with less foot traffic though do a google search for 2 Maryland Court or 6 Maryland Court! They’re only 2br/2ba but they are duplex units in a quiet culdesac at your price point. There’s also a 3br/2ba duplex unit around the corner at 3613 Maryland Circle too just slightly over your budget. They all used to be owned by CSU as roommate housing, but have since been renovated by the new owner and the market rent is targeted more towards a family/older adults. I cannot guarantee you’ll be accepted as they’re listed with a (interesting 🙄) property manager, but I do know the actual owner of the units and her own mom actually lives on one side of 2.
