My friend heard "pie holes' instead of 'thigh folds' and wondered why you would put it there.

LMAO, what's really funny is the gal who created LUME must not have been getting any male customers so...
I was watching a late night show and all of a sudden there she was selling MANDO.
They renamed the product so men would buy it too. I thought it was one of those joke ads, but I checked and it is real, hahahahaha.
LUME for women and MANDO for men.

But Juju, she said that we cannot smell ourselves, but other people can smell us.
We really need her product.

My guess is people are larger than they were 25 years ago and thus more bits are folding LOL

I saw a commercial for another brand, too. It must be a thing. Kind of an annoying thing.
But then there are the Jardiance commercials.. there are now 3 actors I just hate to see on my screen because I know they will start dancing around and singing that song. The first woman got a lot of hate online I gather, so now they have three of them.

ugggg! I am trying so hard to get this extra room in my house rented, that I decided to maybe get rid of my "women only" rule. So I answered the message from a 41 yo male high school teacher, because on paper he was great except for that he was a he.
So he starts texting about foot massages for a nice lady. I told him I'm old enough to be his mother and to please stop that talk if he really wants a room. So he quit and I went on with my usual questions. Within 10 mins or so, he was back to foot massages. I told him I don't think this will work, and that I was sorry I wasted his time.

And this is why he needs a room to rent.

You'd think it would be easy to rent a room, but I would say 99.5% of the responses aren't serious. And the serious ones are far and few between.

So crazy! Here, rooms are snapped up quickly. But there still can be problems, of course.
Are you on NextDoor?

Yes, my ads are on NextDoor, Roomster, Roomies, FurnishedFinder, facebook groups, Kangaroom, Cirtru, Zumper, and a few others. I even tried a Foreign student hosting site, but they want too much from the hosts. Like cooking for them and driving them places.
eta: OH! And Craigslist. Craigslist is how I got Yolanda. Her boss found the ad.

My latest response on NextDoor was a guy saying "You still trying to rent that dump? HAHAHA" so I blocked him.
I really hate that I have to deal so many aholes.

It really is brutal. Small business (which essentially is what you are) is a constant struggle.

Any schools nearby? Maybe a student teacher would need a room.

Just venting….I ordered a pair of shoes from a reputable online shoe store (Teva) on 11/29. The order location is CA. I’m in Oregon. I’ve had UPS delivery notices 3 times, but always it was rescended the day of the delivery. UPS lists the shipment from Riverside, CA to, get this, Georgia! It was finally shipped from Georgia a week ago for delivery today. And yet…. It’s not even showing online as in Portland yet. I’m pretty sure that it won’t be delivered today.
Anyway, I’m just venting. Have already talked with UPS about this. They said that there’s a lag sometimes in the delivery updates online…. Yeah, that’s the problem, not the cross country tour it is taking. Fortunately, I’m not in any hurry for the shoes. I’ll probably be calling Teva on Monday to see what can be done, if I don’t receive the shoes by then.

I once ordered a catnip infused snake from a nice woman on Etsy and it ended up in Puerto Rico! She did send a replacement. We had two but they went in the flooding at my place. I should order one for our temporary location to take back home next year.
I do track items that move away before finally being delivered..

Update: No package delivery yesterday, but progress, as UPS now shows it in Portland as of this morning. Maybe I will get those shoes soon…. Or they might end up in New Mexico or someplace else.

Final report on shoes in transit: I finally got them from UPS yesterday afternoon. I was excited, so tried them on immediately…. Terrible fit. They are the most uncomfortable TEVAs that I’ve ever put on. Thought I’d wait a day just in case it was my feet issues, so tried again this morning. Yup, very uncomfortable shoes, which is a surprise to me. Never had that issue with Teva before. They will go back on the road again tomorrow, as I’m returning then. All that shipping nonsense for nothing. Oh well.

Postscript: After the 16 day US road trip saga of the shoes I ordered, I had to come back here with a chuckle from the return process. Teva gives you a QR code to take to UPS for the return shipment. Says it will take about 3 days to get the return processed. All I needed to do was drop the package off at UPS for shipment back to Teva, which I did at 10:30am today. Well they received the package back in their CA warehouse at 8:45pm today. I just started laughing when I saw that.
