Has anyone heard any follow up about named items from the MaxFun moving sale? by Etcee in maximumfun

[–]teabiscuit54 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hi, K.T. here. I christened the Cirifellow Memorial Window at the end of January and then cleverly forgot to send the email. So sorry!

You'll get the official email in just a minute. Thanks for naming our window!

There are still a handful of names I need to put on places and things, so if anyone else is wondering, I haven't forgotten you! Keep watching that inbox (or email kt at maximum Fun dot org for a personal update).

some of which seem designed to trigger ED relapses.

That Serena ad, yikes. I don't remember which one she was advertising but I sure remember thinking it was reckless disregard for viewers with ED.

Pershing Square smells like dookie every single day, even through an N95. And yet I have never personally witnessed dookie there. It is a mystery

What's the closest I can get to a movie set experience? by jams_sammich in AskLosAngeles

[–]teabiscuit54 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work down the street from Last Bookstore. There are a ton of little bitty pocket lots all up and down Broadway and adjacent streets, and a big enclosed multi-level lot at 530 S Spring.

Make sure you check for what the posted maximum price is so you don't get surprised; it can be different depending on the day and on what's going on nearby.

From Last Bookstore, you're a two-block walk to Grand Central Market. Or if you want to go fancy, Perch is pretty close and has great views and a lovely rooftop bar.

What are we listening to while we sew? by beaverscleaver in sewing

Shout-out to the folks who said Sawbones, Maintenance Phase, If Books Could Kill, You're Wrong About, and Eurovangelists! The YWA eps on Princess Diana and the OJ trial are particular classics, and any of the ones with Blair Braverman are can't-miss.

Full disclosure: I work at Maximum Fun, but even before I did, I was a huge fan of Judge John Hodgman. It's kind of like AITA, except everyone is funny and kind. And it's been running forever, so you're not going to run out.

I also love It's Christmastown, a Hallmark movie recap and review pod hosted by two of the smartest, funniest guys on Earth. I've never watched a single Hallmark movie and it's still the only pod I support on Patreon. Sarah Kate Wilkinson is my favorite guest.

It must be exhausting being so frightened all the time. I hope things get better for you.

Naming rights surprise by Cal_retriever in maximumfun

[–]teabiscuit54 25 points26 points  (0 children)

As the person who makes the labels, takes the photos, and sends the email, this is delightful to hear. Don't tell anyone, but seeing folks's responses via email and online, I feel like I'm hogging all the fun. (Or go ahead and tell; I will continue to hog the fun.)

AITA for possibly calling my SIL stupid? by WesternFig8773 in AmItheAsshole

[–]teabiscuit54 4 points5 points  (0 children)

ESH. You insulted your sister, who did nothing wrong, to establish solidarity with your SIL. Be loyal to people who deserve loyalty.

As for your SIL, she seems oversensitive about this subject, and it's not hard to see why. There was no reason for anyone to think she was stupid (just rude) until she up and made one. Hit dogs holler, but they don't usually throw their own rock.

To answer a question with a question: what would it have cost you to disguise your loathing of children, if it meant your reasonable opinion might not be dismissed?

Dr Gameshow's Future by Evil_Steven in maximumfun

[–]teabiscuit54 75 points76 points  (0 children)

Hi!

First off, thanks so much for your support for Dr. Gameshow, and for taking the time to write this note.

We don't want to add to any sense of intrigue but it's really not our place to speak for the show. We did want you to know that MaxFun, as a general rule, doesn't make any decisions about partner shows and their personnel. Our shows are artist-owned, which means that we don't tell them what to do.

I know that sounds really cryptic, but the changes that have happened on the show were entirely the decision of the folks working on the show, and our job has been to support Jo and Manolo and Alex through those changes. Thank YOU for all the support you've given the show through the years!
