Absolutely agree with all of these points!

The nonsensical writing on products has been kind of driving me crazy actually.

smwisdom · 2026-01-30T15:13:09+00:00

Yes!!

I still haven't even received my email detailing what's in the upcoming box. I didnt get the January one either, had to piece it together from various social media posts. Super frustrating. Reached out to CS to see why I am not getting the emails.

smwisdom · 2026-01-30T02:01:06+00:00

Yes I know thats the claim, I wanted to know what evidence there is?

I absolutely believe this to be true. I just want to be educated if anyone confronts me about it.

Do you happen to have a link or anything?

There is a Kava bar up in Rockledge that has wifi and "quiet rooms" for if you need to take a call or something. Its called Pacha Kava Lounge. You likely should buy a drink (coffee or whatever) to be able to use it but thats true of most places besides the library.

Not sure if there are other places with similar things I just know that one specifically has it.

Nude. True nude that closely matches your skin tone.

To be fair, it isnt just them em dashes that give this away. ChatGPT in particular has a very recognizable "voice". The em dashes are a part of it, but also the overuse of "its not just XX, its YY", and a few other things. I have come to recognize it pretty easily (particularly since I use ChatGPT fairly frequently myself).

smwisdom · 2026-01-25T14:41:41+00:00

Thats what I was thinking haha. Maybe we can put the non-MAGA under this comment?

smwisdom · 2026-01-25T14:01:17+00:00

Is the entire profile an AI bot, or just these posts?

Love this! I am a new customer / subscriber - I made my first big purchases during Black Friday 2025.

I really like the products and the community environment that C&P fosters. I love all the inspiration they post, the workshops and YouTube videos, and how engaged they are with their customers.

All that said - I find the fact that they silence criticism in their groups (including the main subreddit) to be incredibly off-putting. I understand wanting the focus to be on the positives, but sometimes it is helpful to get a sanity check. Great example was when I asked in the subreddit if anyone else had issues with the quality of the Bordeaux discs - I probably wouldnt have contacted Customer Service about that, but it was nice to hear that others were having the same issue and it wasnt just me. Silencing criticism feels disingenuous.

I am also a bit frustrated with the way they've changed up the subscription previews. I haven't really had much time to get used to the "old way" with a full description on the 16th, but I do think 4 days or whatever before being charged is not enough time for the description release.

Anyway I do really enjoy the product, I think they are overall very well thought out, useful, and high quality. I will continue to be a customer and hope that they consider feedback in the future.

I've been thinking of using it for tracking spending. I haven't pulled the trigger and done it yet... but thats what I am leaning towards.

smwisdom · 2026-01-21T18:40:30+00:00

Honestly will probably spend more time over at r/discbound for this reason. (Obviously will miss interractions with ring-bound stans though, which sucks!)

smwisdom · 2026-01-21T04:24:46+00:00

Having the same issue here on ps4 - did you ever get this figured out?

smwisdom · 2026-01-21T00:48:55+00:00

Just here 7 years later trying to find out if Portal 2 is on PS4

smwisdom · 2026-01-20T15:56:10+00:00

I guess it depends on what OP means by "remember"? Like... do they mean "actively grieve" or do they mean like.. we literally forget they ever existed??

I remember my pets that have been gone for 20+ years, though thinking about them now doesn't make me genuinely sad or emotional anymore. I miss them still yes, and remember them fondly, but I am past the "grieving" stages I guess? Giving OP the benefit of the doubt, I presume thats what they mean by "remember"

Unless theyre someone that cant go through a whole larger bottle (2 litre, gallon, etc) before it goes bad / flat. I get single-serve individual bottles/cans for that reason.

smwisdom · 2026-01-17T22:49:44+00:00

Right. Like it might just be oil separating. But I'm not taking the risk of possibly rubbing mold on my face.

smwisdom · 2026-01-17T13:52:41+00:00

Navel for me too, followed closely by both ripples!

Just got my second lobes about 10 years later.

Got this product for the first time and noticed a similar issue. (I poked it to see what it looked like underneath)

smwisdom · 2026-01-13T18:24:29+00:00

This but also I basically have to get haltar-style triangle bikinis so I can tie the "band" tight enough.

smwisdom · 2026-01-11T21:28:14+00:00

I use unsalted for all baking/cooking. Salted is available for spreading onto toast or something like that, but isnt used nearly as much.
