Reply to comment by TheColonelRLD in I’m a fan of “The Embrace” from this angle - looks like a heart. by schmendimini
I mean, yeah it's subjective but it's also a popular subjective opinion. At what out does a "great" public work of art become meaningless if the masses don't enjoy it?
The Embrace being wildly unpopular is not an uncommon opinion. It's subjective, sure, but it's the popular opinion.

Reply to comment by Bierbart12 in A pan I got for Christmas came with a full size screwdriver for assembly of the handle! There was only one screw. by Andire
Maybe the pan company partnered with a famous screwdriver company and it's cross promotion? This is only one, now OP has to go buy the rest!
Or throw it in the toolbox with a the other mismatched screwdrivers like I do.

I explicitly remember Facebook going public in 2012 and saying "who on earth is buying stock in a myspace knockoff? This thing is going to die just as fast as the other 10" and this is why I'm not a market predictor.

Reply to 2nd job at 18, worth it? by RoyalHaza
Hey, not going to give you second job advice but I was in your shoes back in the mid 2000s. I worked at a hospital and my boss gave me the unofficial "assistant lead" title and said I'd be promoted to lead when there was an opening, then the general manager a few years later when she was ready to retire.
Long story short I got laid off 2 years later and none of that panned out. Promises are great but worthless unless you get it in writing. Not saying this will happen to you, but it could.

That's beautiful, nice shot! There are a lot of nice skylines but Boston is always my favorite.

My favorite was a couple years ago they had that whole Fare is Fair thing.
You know what else is fair? Trains that run on time. Tracks that don't light on fire. Faster train service than walking from A to B. Fair goes both ways, I'm paying for a service.
Also the vast majority of the time when tickets weren't checked on the commuter rail, it was because they were understaffed and couldn't check tickets. But I'm sure they thought of that... Right?
