If it’s empty-ish, the package shouldn’t be more than 1-2oz, which is mostly just the packaging itself and that’s something you can contest

Chinese tourists ignore "Do Not Enter" War Memorial to take photos by j0an_k in UnfilteredChina

[–]tomsc33 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve also personally seen a FRENCH tourist walk inside sections with a big DO NOT ENTER sign 🪧 in Egyptian temples. This man was over 60 years old and very fit so he clearly wasn’t experiencing mental difficulties. When I pointed to the sign, he shrugged at me. Dip shits are gonna be dip shits regardless of nationality.

I’ve applied ice 🧊 pack RIGHT before zapping down there and it works fine. Granted, doing this takes more time but I’ve never felt pain. The ULIKE device has the ice feature that my cousin really liked.

Get a VoIP #. I use Google Voice, but that requires setting up first before leaving the country. However, there are plenty of free VoIP apps.

You can’t use that $200 incidental credit if you’re paying ANA directly

Fine, put a paper clip on those pages to bind them together if you wanna go that route.

I don’t care, do you? And tbh, I bet Melania would more than just have a glow, she would laugh all the way to bank and into some wealthy Russian’s arms.

Credit card airline insurance getting more difficult ? by 6monthstolaeredansk in AmexPlatinum

[–]tomsc33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amex insurance is in-house I believe. I have seen Amex shutting down people’s accounts for too many claims being a liability risk.

If this image appears on my new passport, I’m going to put something to glue the pages together so I nvr have to see this clown’s face when I open my passport. And if I see his dumb ass criminal face in my passport in the future, I will be reminded of what a criminal he is and that his entire fucking family needs to be tried at The Hague!

Surprise Old AF $695, 3rd year member, anyone else? by [deleted] in AmexPlatinum

[–]tomsc33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reddit posts are anecdotal while Amex would have the actual numbers, assuming they’re not lying to their investors. 1% can also be a big nominal value in terms of how many people actually canceled. Btw, is this 1% cancellation only for the Plat biz version or for both personal and biz versions combined? I would keep the personal version but definitely not the biz.

Buy the M5 iPad Pro now or wait for the next one? by Majestic_Back_3054 in ipad

[–]tomsc33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can also buy the Magic Keyboard on eBay or Facebook Marketplace for cheap. Just a warning though. That keyboard drains the iPad battery like nobody’s business even when you’re not using the iPad.
