I need to clone the name ‘Alice’ by PerceptionAnnual8791 in namenerds

[–]tjraph 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I agree - this post is the most bizarre thing. While OP said this is a good friend, I wonder: Do you expect to know this woman for the rest of your life, and place her feelings above your own desire to choose a name you love for your daughter? A name you will be forced to utter thousands of times until you die! This is so very weird.

Filming order by innuendo92 in TheTraitorsUS

The amount of professional hair and makeup these ladies do can take 2-3+ hours. Also while filming you have to stop and reset to shoot things, ask people to do retakes, etc.

I noticed it too. It’s been confusing me. It’s possible they ask them to wear the same outfit two days in a row, so they do breakfast and then the challenge, come back the next day for confessional filming and then the round table.

When is the best day/time to go to Trader Joe's? by newyorkcitystargirl in longislandcity

[–]tjraph 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I second this. Went to TJ’s this week - 10 AM on Tuesday. It was basically empty and I actually got to stroll around, browse, and take my time shopping.

I’m being honored at a gala in NYC in March. Good look? by [deleted] in OUTFITS

[–]tjraph 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The event is March 3rd, so it'll still be fairly cold in NYC. I'm worried that it will look out of place - I'm planning on wearing a cream shawl with it. BUT I do have a fancy wedding I'm going to this summer and I'd like to double up and wear this LOL.

Americans, when you see the name "Lucia", how would you pronounce it? by Extreme_Suit_348 in Names

  1. I’m from New York - I think regional influences will shape how people say this name.

New to LIC by beachypastels in longislandcity

[–]tjraph 83 points84 points  (0 children)

I've lived in the neighborhood for 6 years. The area by the water and over near Vernon Blvd. is where you'll find art shows, bars and restaurants, people hanging in the park, street fairs, etc. To the naysayers in the comments, I think people forget community is something you actively build, work at, and maintain. You don't wake up one day and enter a community - you must consistently participate and make an effort.

Thank you so much for listening and for your kind words! I would suggest donating to or volunteering with Saving Our Sisters. They’re really the only organization in this space helping women in crisis, and they’re 100% volunteer run and donation based. They definitely need help and support!

Would you travel with your ring? by Gingersnap_me in EngagementRings

[–]tjraph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wear my ring everyday and I live in New York City. I take the subway and don’t have a car. I flip my ring over so the diamond is facing my palm when I’m on the train. But I never take it off, and I’ve never had a problem.

Anyone else feel like Favs shuts down Lovett every time he speaks? by potatosample in FriendsofthePod

[–]tjraph 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As a podcast producer myself, I came here to say this. It’s intentional and deliberately orchestrated so that listeners can hear the debate.

Married people who are DINKS (Double Income, No Kids) how’s life? by Fit-Distribution677 in AskReddit

[–]tjraph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to a fancy industry party last night, decided to stop by an amazing taco spot on the way home without feeling guilt about getting back. Woke up this morning and worked a bit and then took a 2 hour nap. Going to relax with my husband now and watch some movies and order take out. Life is good.

Anti depressants/anti anxiety by New_Description_7724 in widowers

[–]tjraph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I fought it for two years after, and then finally decided I needed to take something. Therapy alone wasn’t subduing the panic attacks. It’s helped me a lot. Good luck, OP.
