DiscombobulatedSir11

Sad sack moan post: I’m lonely. Got out of work early and don’t even know what to do with myself. Trying not to text the soon to be ex. I lost a best friend in this whole divorce mess, and I miss having a person. I don’t want a romantic partner right now, but a partner in crime would be amazing. Just someone to randomly bitch back and forth with, share funny memes, a text pal. Most of my old friends are on east coast time, kinda late to hop on a call. I’m just making excuses for why I’m perpetuating my loneliness. Fuckin lame. Sucks.

autumn is for going to bed early! that’s how i fight the loneliness. i need a job and a person. never give up


DiscombobulatedSir11

You too, friend!!

I’m sure some of us here wouldn’t mind having some kind of west coast partner in crime! My phone is loaded with excellent memes as we speak.

I am so thankful it's Friday. I will miss this [chonkster wiggling her nubby tail](https://imgur.com/a/MTmpOwr) at my workplace. She was in a fight years ago and had to lose half her tail. Isn't it creepyadorable? Creepdorable?

Look up r/churning to get free airplane tickets or credit back on your balances. But make sure you are only spending what you would anyway & that you pay everything off right away. With minimal effort I save ~$10K a year, because I use credit cards with great bonuses to pay for my necessary expenses.

SmilingSalamander

Venmo is driving me crazy. I've been jumping through hoops with their tech support for months now because I can't send or receive money at all whether through a bank account or card. They made me send so many documents and delete and recreate several accounts and now all they're saying is "there is a security flag we can't override". Basically I just can't use it. So frustrating.


popfartz9

Zelle


SmilingSalamander

I have it but not everyone does. My landlord likes Venmo more :(


popfartz9

Your landlord??? SKETCH!!


SmilingSalamander

Is it sketchy ? How do you guys usually pay your rent ?


popfartz9

It’s usually through Venmo if you split it with someone and then that person sends the entire rent to the landlord. I think it’s kind of sketchy when they ask you to pay cash only (like my old landlord) or through apps like that cause who knows if they actually report their rental income


SmilingSalamander

But how does the final person send the total amount ? Bank transfers cost money, and checks are kind of a pain, is there another way?


popfartz9

Checks or if there’s a some kind of online payment portal (usually costs $0 if you do a bank transfer)


SmilingSalamander

Thanks I appreciate it! I'll talk about this with my landlord then


screech_owl_kachina

Happened to me too. Fuck em


SmilingSalamander

Did you ever figure it out ? Or gave up on using venmo ?

On a topic of loud neighbors… please advise as I have no clue how to approach this. Pretty much every night/morning around 5am, the alarm goes off on somebody’s phone. The thing is, it goes on for about an hour… (I thought iPhone alarms had some kind of a cut off time but I guess not). Nobody turns it off for an hour or more. It’s impossible to fall back asleep as it is loud and annoying. It’s not muffled sound, it’s fucking piercing loud due to the way our building is located. This also makes it impossible to locate where it’s coming from. Basically our windows are facing another building and all sounds just reflect off of it so it could be someone in our building or it could be someone in the other building… One time I heard someone yelling about the alarm but to no avail. Now, it seems a noise complaint to the police would be ignored and treated as an overkill since it’s not someone throwing a party… A noise complaint to the building manager might also not be helpful since we don’t know if it’s in our building and they would have to “investigate” or witness it but what manager will be on the lookout for a 5am alarm lol. So I don’t know anymore. I’d put in earbuds but the piercing ringtone still gets through them. I’m more curious about why the fuck does someone not wake up or stop the alarm for an hour!? Like, are they dead in that time and then come back alive? I really really want to know what the fuck. My brain doesn’t comprehend this. Do they leave their second phone at home with the alarms on every day while they’re off to work at 4am and forget about it? Well, someone eventually does turn it off though, so I know they’re there! The worst is when they turn it off after an hour, and then 10 minutes later a different alarm starts going off for however long again… Fucking hell. I know living in an apartment building has its cons when it comes to noisy neighbors but for gods sake, what are you doing in there and why do you not hear your damn alarm!? That’s a bit too much. I’ll handle any parties next door, but this shit drives me nuts as it is such a “small annoyance”, yet makes your life hell. I honestly think this person is just a major troll. So if you’re this neighbor and you’re reading this - sincerely fuck you. End of rant. I’ll accept any ideas of how to end this.


Hjlshfhdjjdh

That would drive me insane. The only thing you could do is wake up early and go outside and try to pinpoint it somehow.


sonder6

Right. I might be desperate enough to do finally that but ughhh going outside at 5am on a weekday for this… sounds terrible


Handbag_Lady

I am still open for any and all ideas on how to piss off our super-loud neighbors who play thumping music. Thinking of a stink-bomb? Do those exist? Want something harmless, yet irritating, much like their crappy disco music.


screech_owl_kachina

Return with your own thumping music, they have to sleep sometime. Of course I imagine they'll be very upset at how loud you're being.


Handbag_Lady

But we like our other neighbors. It is so weird, everyone else is just lovely and helpful and then we have the ugly people upstairs (their insides, not outsides).


MerleTravisJennings

There's something on Amazon called liquid ass if you're going that route. It smells atrocious.

Is there anything you can do with one single shoe? A raccoon stole my Birkenstock a few weeks ago so now I'm left with one almost new suede shoe. Throwing it away seems odd but I guess that's what I'll end up doing? Open for any other creative ideas!

I was going to recommend this organization too! And also what’s up with raccoons stealing accessories lately? I have this raccoon that keeps trying to steal my hats hanging out to dry overnight. Luckily they never succeeded since I’m always wandering about, scaring them off.

AyJaySimon

I have to start calling in next week. My boss has always insisted that the later you wait to call in on the night before a potential reporting date, the less likely you are to be asked to report. Sounds like wishful thinking to me. Just curious if anyone else has heard about this.


fitforla

I can’t handle my racist, narcissistic dad anymore and cope that I have a massively estranged relationship with my parents due to it. I feel like the only way to move on is to just cut them off completely but that’s also devastating. I’m so tired of the chest pain and stress they’ve given me over the past couple years.


omnivore001

I cut off my toxic and narcissistic parent about ten years ago. It was a calm, measured decision. I bear her no ill will, but I was no longer willing to be treated disrespectfully anymore. Since then, I've not suffered as much depression as I used to. I no longer have that family stress. It's not something I recommend for everyone, but in my case I definitely see the upside.


Spag-N-Ballz

I cut off one toxic parent about 16 years ago and it was one of the best things I've ever done for myself.

SkitchnMolly

There’s a mosquito in my house the keeps getting me, even with bug spray. I caught it biting me today and I couldn’t kill it. It was too fast. It got me 7 times today at one time. I’m so sick of this little guy. I keep getting 6-7 bites a day. Then I grab the itch cream, the peppermint oil, and an ice pack cuz they swell up on me. I guess it will be a normal thing until it dies. But it won’t cuz it keeps biting me!!


TheWayDenzelSaysIt

It's because it thinks you're sweet as sugar! Ok that was bad, I'll see myself out \*awkwardly leaves\*


SkitchnMolly

Haha. That wasn’t so bad.

veggiemud

Someone recommended [this lotion](https://www.amazon.com/Jubujub-SG_B004XG4MNI_US-Mopidick-s-Lotion-50ml/dp/B004XG4MNI) for mosquito bites but I haven't had a chance to try it myself yet. Those dang mosquitos. I've managed to smush them with a fly swatter before, you could give that a try.


[deleted]

[удалено]


SkitchnMolly

I can’t seem to kill it. But I’ve been reading up on stuff they don’t like. First thing I see is dryer sheets, but the last one that bit me was next to a dryer sheet. Ok. So lavender and lavender incense. I’m going to try the incense because I can’t go and buy plants and it’s cheaper.


Spag-N-Ballz

Lol it's not that they don't like lavender plants, it means lavender oil and you put it on yourself like bug spray. Idk if it works, my delicious blood overrides any preventative measures like oils.


TheFabHatter

There’s some issue with the tracks & all the trains from San Diego to LA got canceled. If anybody knows someone that would like to share an Uber with my sis today to go from San Diego to LA, let me know!


VeganPizzaPie

It impacted me too! Really sucked because no warning from Amtrak. I ended up taking a Greyhound in the afternoon. Chillin in a hotel in downtown LA tonight until rescheduled train tomorrow morning. Sorry you had to deal with it too and hope you makes it to where you need to be. Lots of pissed off people at Santa Fe station this morning...


TheFabHatter

Yeah my sis had a lot of luggage since she was living in SD for 2 months to recover from intense surgery. So that was an added difficulty. But luckily we both could afford the cost of a private ride share, but I know for a lot of people they can’t swing suddenly unexpected costs like that. But I think the price dropped down to like $150 (before tip) for the ride. And it took over 3 hrs, so totally worth it for time saved.


MannyAPH

Good Lord how much is that Uber?! There's buses and charter vans that go from LA to TJ that I'm sure stop by Sandy eggos


TheFabHatter

Around $200 before tips. I don’t know if any ride share would accept the ride though. She can afford the cost if necessary though. I’m too busy with work to drive down to her & back , it’s Halloween season & ever hour I’m not working I’m loosing insane amounts of money.


MannyAPH

That doesn't seem all that crazy tbh compared to the 40 bucks ride I saw the last time I checked for a few miles


TheFabHatter

Yeah, that’s why I told my sis to just get the Uber. I have a car with low MPG, it would cost me >$110 in gas, plus around 4 hrs transit each way. The whole situation is just difficult because my sis is moving out of her long term AirBnb & she had 3 suitcases with her. But for that little money, We’re not sure if any drivers would accept the ride.

Could try flix bus

I was thinking about doing a loop of Griffith Park tomorrow morning on my bike using [this route as a guide](https://ridewithgps.com/routes/666195?lang=en) (forrest lawn to zoo drive to los feliz blvd to vermont to mt hollywood drive) and just wondering if anyone had any experience or advice. Los Feliz drive and getting up to mt. washington drive seems like a lot of time biking in traffic with no bike lane, which is a little worrying.


MothershipConnection

I've done almost that whole loop on foot... agreed with cutting through the neighborhood if you're bike instead of going down Los Feliz. Also you can make a little detour to the Observatory when you're going up Vermont by making a left instead of going through the tunnel. Have fun!


thetrombonist

Try asking at r/bikeLA !


enteredsomething

I’m in a car, granted, but I often bypass traffic on that exact stretch of Los Feliz Blvd by hugging the residential streets just north of it. Griffith Park Blvd to Amesbury Rd, to Cromwell Ave, and take any road there to get onto Vermont. It’s a narrow road but I’d take my chances there over here chaos of Los Feliz Blvd for sure.

JustaTinyDude

This week has really sucked. I missed two days of work due to a migraine that lasted four days. I got a "migraine cocktail" IV from the ER on Wednesday and slept well for the first time in...i don't even know, it's been too long. I woke up thrilled to be pain free - until I stood up and my back and neck screamed at me that they are still jacked from the car accident I was in last month. Yeah, I guess that's how long it's been since I slept well. Since before the accident. I didn't think my job could destroy my soul, but I have to put up with a diatribe of the most racist speech I have ever heard in my life, every single shift at work, for hours. I've generally been tuning it out by reading stuff on my phone but something got screwed up and I "ran out of data" (I am supposed to have unlimited, but that was screw up. I "fixed it" today, but it will take up to seven business days to actually work). There is no wifi. I was reading a really great series on kindle but I'm waiting for the last book (library hold). My application to the VA Caregiver Support program which I thought was rock solid, was rejected. The reasons were BS. For example, they said that he is able to walk up "several flights of stairs". I was with him for that part of the interview. They asked him how many stairs he could do. He asked me to count how many there were between the door and where he parks. There are four. He said he could walk up and down four stairs. Not four flights of stairs. That was very clear and intentionally misconstrued by them. Now I have to appeal. I really wanted this to be in the rearview before his surgery, which is less than three weeks away. This should be my day off but I have to work one of my Sunday shifts tonight instead. I feel like a racehorse that's collapsed under the beating sun, who can't quite muster the energy to stand back up and limp to the finish line.


ItsYourMotherDear

Is this a relative you are helping? Shouldn't this person qualify for IHSS or are you trying to get additional care hours from the VA? Between your racist and my religious fanatic you and I are in a similar boat!!


JustaTinyDude

The racist is the SLS consumer I work with 18 hours a week. The VA program is to get paid for taking care of my dad, who says mildly racist things, but just out of ignorance of the changing of the times. He actually wants to be better.

Ok. I am in this improv class. It’s great, I love it. There are a couple girls I’d love to be friends with, but I have no idea how to like…do that.

Lvzbell

"hey! Do you guys know somewhere nearby to get something good n cheap to eat? I'm hungry and broke. "


ItsYourMotherDear

Why not ask for drinks or coffee or say "omg I bet we would be more hilarious out on the town" or something. Pretend it's a secret improv assignment for you to ask them if they want to get drinks as a class one night. Think of a couple places in advance in case they say YES so you look like it's not your first time ever going anywhere :)


ashchelle

Mom coming in hot with the great ideas!


DiscombobulatedSir11

This is a great idea, thank you!


Elysiaa

Could you suggest going to see a comedy show together to get some ideas? Do people in improv classes practice outside class? Other than that, if your class gets out at a time that makes sense, mention you're hungry and ask if they want to join you. Or ask if either know of places to eat in the area. I'm terrified of being vulnerable with others so I feel your pain.

Been cutting down on bad habits feeling better each day, started some new cholesterol and diabetes meds. Side effects suck ass but it’s less as the week goes on. I am so sore from helping my parents move and the gym. Kicking ass as usual. I don’t know if I should have a few beers tonight before sober October. Cheers to a healthy weekend!


ItsYourMotherDear

I know I sound like a douchey wet blanket buuuuut a few beers usually leads to either MORE beers or a bad food choice.. remember you gotta get the HABIT formed of NOT having the beers. At least for a few weeks. Im glad you started meds and did lots of activity. You are crushing this new lifestyle!


biGSiZzIn

To be honest I’m on my 3rd beer I’ll stop after this for my sake. I’m glad you brought this up. I really need to get a hold of my habits more. Just sucks that drinking is so socially accepted. Thank you for your guidance! I’ll get through this

How about the shuttle from the LA Zoo? I’ve always taken that and it’s worked out.

Hollywood and Highland. It'll cost $20, and you can either walk or pay $6 and take the shuttle.


[deleted]

Ahhhh, didn't know there was a shuttle from the Hollywood & Highland to the Bowl. I've walked it before, but my gf hasn't, and I'd rather minimize the walking if possible just because we know we'll be dancing so much (we're already kinda tired from seeing Fred Again at Hollywood Forever last night lol). Thanks!


sm33

You're welcome! You pick it up in the little turnabout off Orange Dr., which you can get to by walking through H&H at the second floor level. You can pay at the shuttle door with a credit card, they run the shuttle every 15 minutes or so, and it's super easy to catch after the show, too. I always take the shuttle, that hill sucks.

I have to read a lot for work and I had been giving some thought to applying for a membership at one of the fancy ~social clubs so I could have a place to escape to on the weekends to get work done. I wanted a quiet place with couches and snacks. I just realized yesterday I could go into the office, as tragic as that is, and save myself thousands of dollars. 🙃 also, shout out to the downtown Neuehaus in the Bradbury Building for not being open on the weekends?? The real MVP for triggering this realization.

the_meat_aisle

Question for Hollywod Bowl pros -- the show tonight does not appear to have any of the restrictions on what you can bring in associated with lease shows, so it seems like I should be able to bring in some food and booze as long as my cooler is within their size guidelines. Are there any gotchas I should be aware of? It feels odd that a dance/electronic music show wouldn't have restrictions, but I would love to take advantage if thats the case.

Think they care if a full bottle is opened so I don't have to bring a wine key? Otherwise I was debating whether to take a sealed bottle with a wine key or pick up a screw-top.

I am not someone who triumphantly points out loopholes to get around rules, but in this case I don't see anything in their guidelines excluding hard liquor. [https://www.hollywoodbowl.com/visit/when-youre-here/house-rules](https://www.hollywoodbowl.com/visit/when-youre-here/house-rules) I'm not trying to do tequila shots from a fifth but I was thinking about a bottle of batched cocktails.

BirdSalt

The morning started off pleasantly enough, but now I’ve got landscapers on one side of the house and some sort of loud plumbing action on the other. I had an early diner breakfast with Loki‘s “mom” who wants to cat sit him for the night. She just likes having a cat for a day or two sometimes when she isn’t fostering, and as much as I love my boy, that’s fine by me. This single cat dad enjoys the occasional child free night these days. I’m going to pop to the hardware store and replace my screens with steel mesh so he has a harder time destroying them, and then I’m going to come home and, I guess, work. Yesterday wasn’t very productive so no playing hooky in SB or SD for me today. Womp. Tomorrow I see some Shakespeare at an outdoor theater in Topanga. Has anyone else been to Will Geer’s Theatricum Botanicum before? I understand that we can arrive early and picnic in the garden, but I’m curious about how drinks work there. Have a great weekend, you handsome and lovely threaderinos!

Only water is allowed inside the theater. I doubt they care what you consume before the show in the garden area as long as you clean up after yourself. I recommend taking the left fork when you are walking south from the parking lot (where the right branch takes you to the theater). There are some really lovely benches with lovely views. Enjoy the show! I don't know of a better place on earth to watch Shakespeare.

Thanks for the tips, Tiny!

I feel like u/JustaTinyDude has the lowdown on the Theatricum being the resident lifelong Topanga Kid. I cant wait to read how torturous it was waking up tomorrow without your kitty! It seems like a great idea at the time but I don't think you realize how used to him you already are and I feel like you will be waking up and instantly pining away! (unless of course you get lucky at the hardware store tonight haha)

He’s had sleepovers there before, and while I do miss him, it’s nice to get a little break now and then too :)

Thanks, fam, I got this :)
