I wore the wrong shoes for snowy weather and slipped on the sidewalk. My ankle rolled inward at a really awkward angle. Apparently in those cases either the bone goes or the joint does.
Does UK have a version of the American Better Business Bureau? I had an ongoing problem with a J. Peterman Company order and finally resorted to reporting the company to BBB along with documentation of the problem. BBB solved things PDQ, but I will never order from the company again after this, and I've been ordering shirts for my son from them for a decade.
I would imagine there’s something along those lines. We have something called The Citizens Advice Bureaux, but like any business over here, trying to get through to a human can tempt suicide so I tend not to bother.
strictly they are called the Chartered Trading Standard s Institute...everyone just refers to them as trading standards https://www.tradingstandards.uk
I'm currently reading a well-reviewed trad published book that I like but... It's close third, but there are twenty major characters (well, twenty characters total, but it's a bit of a Clue/Murder on the Orient Express bit of thing) and all of them have official names (the Prince, Captain Johnson, etc), department names (Captain Johnson is the Chicago police chief), personal long form names (James is the prince of Illinois is sometimes referred to as James) and nicknames (Jim and Becky, who is the aforementioned police chief). I've changed all the names and I'm not going to ID the book to avoid running afoul of rules, but while the writing is generally good I'm halfway through and only have the vaguest idea of who half the characters are. I'm sure there's a rich story being woven in there somewhere...
Well, dang. I just got a notice that the fantasy writing class I signed up for was canceled due to insufficient enrollment. So much for meeting other Philly phabulists—apparently there aren't any.
Today I asked my wife what Tom Brady has that I haven't got. She guffawed so hard I thought she would hurt herself; another reason why I hate him.
You should be able to disable the auto-renew from your console's main menu. On the PS5 anyway. I never used PS+ when I had my PS4 since I don't play anything online. I just got it when it was on sale for $35/year to get all the free games that come with it.
Gisele Bündchen I'll bet she wouldn't have been laughing so hard if you had followed up with that ...
No, it’s buried deep in the settings. They make it as difficult to find as possible. Anyway it’s since been resolved. I requested a password reset again and it arrived immediately!
Seven Superbowl rings? I seem to be one of the few Patriots lifers that doesn't hate him these days. Most of us forget how badly the Pats sucked before he came along.
Yeah, but I was at least in the NFL for a couple years. Of course it was the National Forensic League. Debate class, in high school. Vice-president of our chapter.
I wasn't as illustrious member as you, but I was in the NFL, too. Varsity in all individual events. Refused to debate. Told my coach, "Don't argue with me about it."
So, tomorrow is moving day. As in, strangers I’ve never met before (i.e., movers) will enter my inner sanctum — my abode that is my room — and start hauling all my stuff into a giant truck to the new place. God help me, and my anxiety…
So I make a light-hearted joke on a Facebook group where the US army is making robotic vehicles — joking that we’re bringing about the apocalypse the movies warn us about. Someone got upset over it because it covers the US army, talking about fascism and all of that. This was the post I made. Spoiler: US Army stuff, because apparently this triggers people Really? Robotic military gear? WE HAVE ENTIRE FRANCHISES DEVOTED ON WHY THAT STUFF IS A BAD IDEA!! WHY DO WE KEEP TEMPTING FATE!? ARE WE TRYING TO UNLEASH THE APOCALYPSE?! What’s next? We find a way to reanimate the dead? We create machines that relies on bioenergy for fuel? We clone ancient carnivores that should otherwise remain very much dead? C’mon, people. I…have no words. I know, this is gonna sound like ‘Big Boomer Energy’ here but…can no one apply basic context and comprehension anymore?
It seems like they failed to serve you at every step of the process. This sort of reminds me of "opt-out" trial periods. A province in Canada, Quebec, actually wrote up legislation against them. It resulted in a little disclaimer fine print essentially saying that it was considered a "full subscription with the first month free (instead of a trial) for Quebec residents." Nothing else changed.
Worse still, if you call your bank and ask them to reclaim a payment you believe has been taken unfairly, PlayStation will very likely serve you a permaban from the PlayStation Network.
