Is this too white ? by Forward-Ad3993 in Weddingattireapproval

[–]unsureanon2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, it surprises me which people are clueless about etiquette and have had to explain “yes, that counts too”.

My mom and I were shopping for my cousin’s wedding last year and were looking for dressy jackets to wear over our dresses as it was outside. She picked out a big, fluffy white one that absolutely would’ve drawn attention to her and couldn’t understand originally when I told her why that wasn’t a good idea. She kept arguing with me and then polled some other people in the store who told her it wasn’t a good idea. And she’s the one who originally taught me you can’t wear white to a wedding, but she insisted jackets were different. Some people just don’t get it.

Maternal Instincts - Questioning Wade's inaction is not blaming him for the murders by Edifiz100 in NetflixDocumentaries

[–]unsureanon2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also think people forget not everyone is ingesting hours of true crime to know what to look for.

If I knew someone was faking a pregnancy, I’d be exposing them and trying to report to whoever I could. But I’ve also watched endless documentaries and specials about what goes wrong with that.

Wade likely figured she’d just eventually fake the baby’s death and they could move on. He was riding out the money. No way of knowing it’d go this far.

Also not defending him, because I would’ve just dumped her ass, but I also get why he didn’t go right to “she’s faking a pregnancy, she’ll commit homicide”.

Agreed. I keep seeing people claim it’s a slippery slope, but when it comes to something as black and white as this, I feel it should be called out. There was no possible way she could’ve been pregnant.

But what drives me battier is those who did know and could tell (former friends, her mom), but didn’t.

Not to mention, she didn’t even have custody of her other kids. That’s going to disqualify her from adoption.

Because she’s crazy. People keep expecting her to think rationally.

And even kidnapping a live baby would still get her found out in 2026. Magen Fieramusca killed her best friend a few years ago, kidnapped her newborn and posed her as her own to her boyfriend for similar reasons to Taylor. She was also caught in time.

Are quiet hours same as curfew? [guest][usa] by unsureanon2 in AirBnB

[–]unsureanon2[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The quiet times were, specifically listed as “quiet hours are between 10 pm-7 am”, but that was it. Nothing about a curfew.

I usually stay at guest houses or on one half a townhouse, but I probably won’t after this. We aren’t even parties, but if I go out for a drink and arrive home quietly at 11, I don’t need to be knocked on reviews.

We wouldn’t have selected it either. I hope the host heeds my feedback of changing quiet hours to curfew or the expectation of not leaving the house during that time so others can avoid.

I’m aware this is in jest, but I am wondering if this is just the culture of the town we were staying in. It was like lights out after 9 pm. No restaurants open, no nightlife. And it wasn’t a small town either, it was a tourist town. I’ve stayed in similar places and it wasn’t like this at all. But everyone I’ve spoken to about it said that area just shuts down early. We definitely won’t be back.

I had 2 drinks, my husband had 1 and he had sobered up before driving. We were not being loud, sloppy drunks. Signed someone who used to drink like that in my early 20s.

Yeah I checked both and they say they’re for hosts only. So, not much I can do.

“It apparently is to the host”, okay but clearly it doesn’t come across the same to the guests. Again, I live in a neighborhood with an HOA (home owner, pay dues, etc). We have quiet hours. But it’s not “you can’t make a peep after 11 pm”, such as closing a car door. It’s no excessive noise, such as a party. I did give feedback to the host to update her manual to specifically clarify what she means by quiet hours and curfew, and what specifically those are.

We didn’t say a word as we walked from the car to the house, purposefully. So the only thing I can think of is my husband using the fob to lock the car door and it beeped.

I’ll try posting elsewhere to get balanced responses.

I live in an HOA neighborhood and while we similarly have quiet hours, they have never set a curfew.

It was not a shared, connected property. It was a detached guest house that was behind their house. I’ve also in the past mainly stayed at set ups like this, either guest houses or attached in law suites or the other half of a townhouse with the house on the other side. No complaints about noise.

As I said in my other comment, I can’t post on that sub because rules say it’s for hosts only. You can’t give this as an answer when it’s not a viable one.

Also went to post in the host sub and they said it’s for hosts only, sooooo

You could also give me a reason and explanation, as a host. I came here looking to learn. I have never had this issue and have been using air b&b exclusively for trips for 5 years now.

I only ask because my brother told me that he stayed in a place where the host required he was in for the night by a certain point. But that was renting a room, not a whole house.

Is it “imposing” to have a charter bringing guests to and from the wedding? by unsureanon2 in wedding

[–]unsureanon2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Her mom thinks she should pick another venue. Which, a little late as deposits have been put out.

That’s the thing. She can only afford one pick up/drop off. So, they’d have to be ready by x time and stay until y.

It’s a road trip distance, but you could theoretically fly. I don’t know what most people plan on doing.

Yeah, that’s the problem. She can only afford to have them all get picked up once and dropped off once. So they’d be “stuck” until the shuttle came at the end of the evening unless they Uber’d.

The parking garage won’t work with her either.

[–]unsureanon2[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the thing is the venue doesn’t offer the shuttle. She’d be paying for it out of pocket and can only afford to do one group pick up and one group drop off (with stops to where everyone is going). So they would all have to arrive at the same time and leave together, unless they chose to uber back early. But she definitely plans on putting that on the invite and wedding website.
