This is one of the hardest scenes for me to watch in the whole series. What is the hardest scene for you all to watch?
I've never understood nor saw the appeal myself. It's apparently to get ready for bed which you know, we can do ourselves.
Some hotels leave a piece of chocolate on the bed which I find funny because it seems counterintuitive to be eating sweet and sugary before bed.
It's a nice benefit but personally if it's factored into the cost of the stay I'd rather do without it.
Who changed Chronicler's sheets? Kvothe (Kote), Bast, and Chronicler have all been busy with the story throughout the day, so who changed Chronicler's sheets (noticed at the end of the first book)? Is there an illusive third party waiting in the Waystone (Greystone) Inn?
Interestingly outside of cruise ships and some (overnight) sleeper trains, this seems a foreign concept these days at most hotels as most housekeeping staff go home before its time to turndown and after which most hotels run on barebones staffing.When I see turndown service in the past before I went on cruises or stayed overnight on trains I didn't even know what it means.
I've been renting out my place in downtown Huntsville on AirBnb when I'm traveling for work and would like to find someone to come to by and change the linens and towels between guests. The guests usually leave the place in pretty good shape, so hiring a full on cleaning service seems like overkill (and I don't think any of them provide turndown service in any case). If you know of someone you can recommend who wouldn't mind making some extra cash, shoot me a message. Thanks!
"Good Morning Mr. Burr this is your 7:30 wake up call and IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII^IIIIIIIIIIIIIII^^IIIIIIIIIII^^^IIIII'm just checkin in on ya!"
She said, "Sure. I wouldn't go out with you if you were the last guy on earth after the zombie apocalypse and your saliva contained the antidote."
There were recently significant changes to the Doom Raids, incorporating T1 Iso-8 requirements and granting rewards of T2 Iso-8. While these changes are important to how players will progress in the future, we understand it was a bigger leap than anticipated. To help provide a smoother transition into the updated Doom Raid, there are several actions being taken.
RETURN OF DOOM RAID: FIRST STRIKE
One of the pieces of feedback is that certain levels of Alliances were no longer able to complete Doom Raid by at least 30% with the updates, thus cutting off access to certain rewards, including the highly-prized character shards for Silver Surfer. To adjust for this, we will be returning Doom Raid: First Strike back into the game for the duration of Silver Surfer shards in the Milestone Rewards, as an option for Alliances that were able to do this raid previously but unable to make the leap into the updated Doom Raid. Here are some of the details:
- Doom: First Strike will be identical to how it was previously, with no updates to difficulty or rewards
- The “card” to access the raid will be embedded within the Doom Raid Group
- It will have the same cost and rules as other raids, and will use Raid Energy and Ultimate Keys
There isn’t a date set on the return of First Strike just yet, but we are working with urgency to make it available as soon as possible. We’ll keep you updated on this.
INCREASED AVAILABILITY OF T1 ISO-8
As mentioned in a previous post, we will be increasing the availability of T1 Iso-8, to help players enter the updated version of Doom Raid with T2 Iso-8 rewards. Additionally, there will be updates to the Iso-8 Campaign rewards including:
- All T1 Iso-8 crystal drops will increase from 1x to 2x.
- Missions which cost 24 Iso-8 Campaign Energy will drop 2000 T1 Ions (was 1000), and 240 T1 Basic Iso-8 Orb Fragments.
- Missions which cost 12 Iso-8 Campaign Energy will drop 1000 T1 Ions (was 425), and 40 T1 Basic Iso-8 Orb Fragments.
- Missions which cost 12 Iso-8 Campaign Energy will be able to be cleared 20 times before the player has to spend HC to refresh them (was 10).
The intent of these changes is to allow players to more effectively target specific crystals (via missions that cost 12 Iso-8 Campaign Energy), or to make untargeted but guaranteed progress (by harvesting orb fragments from missions that cost 24 Iso-8 Campaign Energy).
These changes will go live with the version 5.5 release.
DETAILS OF DIFFICULTY CHANGES

... keep reading on reddit ➡I used to run the front desk overnight at this small but really fancy 5 star hotel and restaurant that specialized in big weddings and college graduation parties. One night I got called up to a room to deliver a bottle of wine (night auditor also handled overnight room service and turndown service). Knocked on the door and was told to come in, it's open. Opened the door and there was a naked couple on the bed he was sitting on her chest and you can guess what she was doing to him. And they asked me to come on in and join them! I set that bottle of wine inside the door and practically ran.
I don't know why so many hotel guests think they can proposition the employees but this place had it happen a lot, and this was a really expensive place that charged $400+ a night. I guess the guests figured at that price they got a free call girl or something. We had multiple female servers quit because drunk wedding guests groped them. And management simply didn't give a damn as long as they were getting their money. You don't say boo to a wedding party that's paying $100,000 for a weekend event. The amount of trouble our rich guests caused was incredible. DWIs, actual accidents, crashing the bar down the street after they were already drunk, couple of near drownings in the venue's small pond - it was crazy. Even had one idiot set off the sprinkler system smoking in the bed and it did so much damage to the carpets before we could get it shut off that we had to close for over a month to repair all the water damage.
You'd think at those kinds of prices you'd get a more refined clientele, but that wasn't anywhere near the truth. They would trash the rooms, leave food everywhere, spill wine on the expensive sheets and carpeting, puke/shit/bleed all over everything. Then have the nerve to complain when they were charged for the amount of damage they had done. We even had to have a valuable antique table resurfaced because some idiot set a sweating glass of beer down on the tabletop not 2 inches from the coasters that were on the tables for that very reason.
Worst customer though was the bitch who screamed at me for probably an hour because I couldn't find her reservation. She FINALLY let me look at her reservation on her phone after verbally abusing me to the point I was ready to scream. Come to find out her reservation was for a completely different hotel but with the same name in a completely different town over 400 miles away. She didn't even have the right STATE much

Go post NSFW jokes somewhere else. If I can't tell my kids this joke, then it is not a DAD JOKE.
If you feel it's appropriate to share NSFW jokes with your kids, that's on you. But a real, true dad joke should work for anyone's kid.
Mods... If you exist... Please, stop this madness. Rule #6 should simply not allow NSFW or (wtf) NSFL tags. Also, remember that MINORS browse this subreddit too? Why put that in rule #6, then allow NSFW???
Please consider changing rule #6. I love this sub, but the recent influx of NSFW tagged posts that get all the upvotes, just seem wrong when there are good solid DAD jokes being overlooked because of them.
Thank you,
A Dad.
So far nobody has given me a straight answer
Has anyone taken the NE Regional sleeper service recently? I'm going to be going end to end (DC - Boston) next month and was wondering if it's any different from the standard experience on long-distance trains (e.g. food, turndown service, how early you can get on board). Thanks!
..... Will get a reward.
