REtailers seem to almost completely ignore Thanksgiving.
Aside from grocery stores.
The Thanksgiving and Christmas meals are usually similar, and require lots of groceries.
But Christmas involves buying gifts. I’m sure PS4s are more profitable than frozen turkeys.
Can anyone recommend an app? Or device that will stop a dog/ dogs from barking?
Obviously I've seen devices advertised. But which one actually works?
My neighbors, who I share a common wall, and adjacent front door with. Let their dogs sit at their open door and bark through the screen.
All day/ every day. Into the night.
The dogs also go ballistic and bark nonstop when they leave the apartment. For hours and hours.
*Calling the landlady is out ( don't ask). No cops either.( I like to keep a low profile).
Thanks in advance.
This might sound stupid, but is it possible to befriend the dogs?
Seriously, hear me out. My neighbors have this older, three legged dog that protects his property with extreme ferocity and a VERY loud bark. Missing a leg doesn't slow him down a bit. I walk by him every morning and it was clear he wanted nothing more than to tear me to pieces. I started talking to him, telling him what a good job he was doing and such. As time went on, he barked less and less. Now, he rarely bothers to get up when I pass.
Can you sneak treats through the door?
The dogs bark at everything! A leaf. The wind. Other people walking by, etc.
I asked them to stop banging their cabinet doors when they first moved in in April. (They took over their daughters lease, so they know that our common walls are paper thin.)
They're doing it on purpose.
They just don't care.
I need a device that will stop the barking.

Omg, I have the perfect person in mind for this one! I laughed so hard, thinking about it.
Exactly. I've yet to see them get walked. Probably just let them shit in their yard.
They came from a huge house too.
It's the fact that they PURPOSELY let the dogs sit at their open, screened door that irritates me.
They also slam their kitchen cabinets all day/ night, which sounds like gun shots.
I've asked them to stop. So, naturally they're doing it more.:(
Winter is here. It was only 71 when I went outside this morning. I nearly froze!
You might find something in your library that would help

Lol!! At this point, I might consider this.
A friend of mine suggested buying skunk spray for their yard.
The theory is that, the dogs will step in it. Track it into their apt. They'll have no choice but to move out.
She said that a lady she knew did it to her annoying neighbor, and they moved out.
The problem is, do my neighbors have cameras?
I contacted a local realtor, who is going to help in finding out the legal way to go about it.
Will report back.
I experienced Pumpkin Spice betrayal- I bought International Delight coffee creamer in Pumpkin Pie Spice...It smells awesome in the bottle but it tastes odd in coffee and is a bit thin (& I poured it in a weak brew of Starbucks coffee so it's not like the coffee is to blame here.) I'm actually going to email a customer complaint. I don't do that too often.
edit to add- I did try it after I shook it up. Still seems a bit odd.
Also, slightly shocking- I realized Dollar General stores have higher prices on some products than the same items at Wal Mart. Be aware of that. DG is still great for discounts overall.
I finally sat my daughter's doctor down and told her that enough is enough. Something has been wrong with my child's health for at least 4 years and I'm sick of every doctor, hospital, and clinic telling me that she's alright. She's not alright. She behaves like a 67 year old man with a bad back. Stop telling me that she just has a cold or that it's a mild fever and stop giving me that dumb nod while i explain the problem because you're secretly imagining what you're going to eat for lunch - fix my baby.
This doctor finally listened. I can't wait to pick up her prescription and see what happens in the next 10 days because nose bleeds, vomiting every other weekend, lethargy, and now breathing problems ARE NOT NORMAL.
Oh I didn't elaborate b/c I was trying to be brief- I got the coffee creamer (liquid) at Wal Mart. That's why I was so surprised in a bad way- I even opened the bottle myself, it had a foil seal, and was expecting the kind of flavor I get when I use restaurant single serve portions.
My advice, if you're hardcore into Pumpkin Spice for Autumn, buy the spice mix itself and toss it on your coffee or tea to made sure you get the proper flavor blast.
Blues can't post in and don't by tradition thank in pink threads, but I saw this and had to re-post it. As a newer mod, I can attest to the truth of what Optimist is saying.
1. The reason for the rules becomes clear if you look at any other sites that are loosely modded. They quickly become offensive, festering pits of nonsense and much worse.
2. A LOT goes on behind the scenes - I've been a mod for 2 years and I'm still barely catching up with it. Of the top mods, Optimist, PDG and Djoser have photographic memories and can somehow keep track of years of multiple identities, posting styles, trolls, spammers, wannabe pimps, fetishists, angry people, and con artists and amazingly keep them separate from our 3000 good posters. Kudos to all the mods; those above just help me frequently.
So here is the full post so the blues can see it in its full splendor:
Optimist: "I'm so glad you said it! This is the only board I'm on where I've seen people cry about other members being banned -- folks they don't even know -- but go on campaigns painting them as victims. It's a message board. Banning doesn't mean death or dismemberment!
To protect the guilty I'll share this GENERAL info about some notorious banned people. We had one who would play the victim but was doxxing y'all. Let me be clear, this means OUTING you to friends family and vanilla employers as well as making up allegations and trying to get police intervention. One was soliciting money from people. Another was setting girls up for God knows what in offsite meetings. Plenty are pretending to be dancers and aren't. One was trying to get other members fired. One threatened lawsuits. Some have had multiple troll accounts male and female and have them draw people into fights ...
I don't know what some of you want. We had a clique who was literally lying and running down Mods and trying to cause women to fight with men and whites to fight with Blacks and I guess y'all want us NOT to Mod? You have straight up headcases on here but a bunch of members will become attached then cry over their passing. But what you don't know about are the dozens they have been pm-ing harassment, lies, utter fuckery. We gotta read all the complaints about these people week in and week out, month in, year in.... So should we be afraid of being seen as mean or protect the people getting screwed over behind the scenes? To even assume a Mod is mean is bizarre to me. I don't get it."
At last, I have completed my revised review of the hated elliptical machine, my White Whale. The original was nearing 4,000 words, so I condensed it as much as possible so that I may better share my fury with the world. I didn't include the incredibly bizarre behavior of the repair guy, since that may be a libel issue. I really wanted to, though.

Doordash is on my crap list. My kid and I ordered food from Boston Market and was waiting for our food. The app said that the food would arrive be arriving in 25 minutes(estimated time). An hour went by and no food. I called Boston Market and they said no order was placed under my name. I checked my email for the Doordash receipt as proof. It was there and another hour later, low and behold, Doordash said that they couldn't deliver the food because I was out of their service range. Ok, then why didn't you call or something after I had placed the order to let me know, instead of leaving us to wait for food that was never coming?
^^I don't use them anymore. I used to order delivery all the time from club A steakhouse on 39th - tip $30 plus the fee. Then I find out they're treating their delivery people like shit AND their restaurants like shit. I can put up with the lateness, the lost orders, the lack of communication, but not that AND treating their staff badly.
