For me an email is when I don’t need a quick response. A text is when I want a faster response but I don’t want to interrupt what the other person is doing. A call is when I want a quick response and I think it’s worth interrupting the person.
I very rarely call.
Right, I agree with you there. I guess I should invert my question. If you’re tipping the driver, what is the delivery fee for?
These two costs seem redundant.
Wow. Just wow.
If you are paying separately for the delivery, what is the tip for?
I respect the concern, but if you already ate the bacon that left you with the fat, hasn’t a fair amount of the damage already been done?
Before I had a kid, I heard this was a thing, but didn’t really care as I didn’t really have a desire to be around kids. Once I became a father, I realized a lot of people make strange assumptions about men around small humans. Its certainly not most people, but definitely some, and definitely not just online.
I think you were implying something different, but I feel like I get a ton of odd comments suggesting it’s weird for me to be out with my own kid. Things like “giving mom the day off?” or “what happened to his mom?”.
I had friends complain about this kind of thing before I had kids and I thought that they were exaggerating. Nope, it’s all over the place. It’s certainly not everyone, but it is much more common than I expected.
I’m often for giving people the benefit of the doubt, but the “keep your dumb mouth shut” part makes me feel like this is less of a shower thought and more of a “I didn’t know where to complain” thought.
I’m guessing you didn’t really think this one through. Perhaps try on Unpopular Opinions ?
Find a hobby that would use the product type in question. Find a community for said hobby then look for discussions comparing the options that are out there.
This tends to work better for certain things more than others. I doubt many hobby groups get excited about dishwashers or clothing dryers. I’m these cases, the Buy it For Life communities tend to have decent comparisons.
Maybe it’ll be the next MySpace?
Maybe they just typed it out how they would say it?
I try to never use “the finger” when another driver is being an ass. In that case I always just give them a thumbs down and a sad face.
I save the middle finger for people who are being “nice”, especially when it is making things dangerous. I find it is the quickest way get them to just go.
I try to be coniderate while driving. Being predictable is safe. Deviating from the rules is dangerous. I think being safe more considerate than being “nice”.
Also, doesn’t the jetbrains license let you continue to use the version that was the latest as of when your license ended. It’s a small difference, but also kinda huge.
My personal experience: Trying to find a restaurant that has vegan friendly options isn’t always easy, and used to be much harder. That would make trying to find somewhere to eat as a group much more tedious if someone was vegan. I don’t think anyone had issue with the person being a vegan, I think they just didn’t like eating at the same two restaurants over and over.
It’s not about the taste, it’s about the texture.
What about phrasing it so the effort isn’t on you, but them?
“I’ve never really felt comfortable around [describe group]”. This way, the failure isn’t yours to get comfortable, but on them to mwake you comfortable.
