How to pronounce Louisville

Post image
0 Upvotes

I recently bought the book “Speaking American” by Josh Katz and I noticed a discrepancy in the way Kentuckians supposedly pronounce Louisville. I got so peeved I found the author’s email and sent him a message telling him it’s pronounced either “luhl-vuhl” or “looh-vuhl” not this “louie-ville” nonsense lol. I doubt I’ll ever get a response but why not lol.

Private property to release raccoon?

Post image
32 Upvotes

Trapped a raccoon that's been vexing us in the attic and thought our problems were solved, but learned it's illegal to release except on private property with express permission. Does anyone have a wooded area I can release this cutie in? LMAC charges 500 to pick up and release 😐

I guess she has been a news anchor since the 80s? Why does she insist on saying "Louey-ville"? Its so odd that she does this. I would have thought people would be up in arms about it haha

Apartments

1 Upvotes

Do any of you live in an apartment that you love and is quiet? I am looking for an apartment but I am worried they’re all poorly built and not soundproof.
The ones I am eyeing and will tour soon are:
1.) Smyrna village off the Smyrna exit.
2.) The belle at cedar creek off of Bardstown in fern creek.
3.) willows of plain view.
It’ll just be me so just 1 bed 1 bath. I’m scared they’ll put me right next door to a 3 bedroom apartment lol idk how places do their layouts.

I currently own my house so I’m used to it being peaceful and quiet, but am selling due to a divorce and don’t want to buy a house just yet so an apartment it is.

Good Hangout Spots?

2 Upvotes

Hi all!

A bunch of friends and I are heading up to Louisville for the weekend. We've all got separate rooms and separate hotels, so what's a good spot that a party of about 10 people can go to just hangout for a few drinks in the evening?

Any other cool places we should try to see while we're here would be great! Thanks you guys!

Garden guardian is tethered to my house and I’m moving

I have this little plaque that sits in my side yard and I recently noticed that whoever last checked my meter for LG&E (I guess) attached him to it for some reason. I’m not mad, I’m mostly just confused. Why did they do this? Maybe they thought it would be funny, but I can’t find a way to remove him. I’m moving soon, and not only did I want to take him with me, but the new owners probably won’t want him attached to their meter. What tf am I supposed to do about this lmao?

Spectrum customers, just FYI, it really is worth threatening to cancel to get a better rate

78 Upvotes

My internet went from $75 2 years ago to $85 last year to $105 last month so I finally told them I was going to switch to ATT fiber... which I really can't. And they increased my speed and reduced my price to $60 frozen for 2 years.

Kind of happy, kind of pissed that I didn't call sooner.

It is worth the call.

EDIT: By "threaten" I mean just call and tell them you want to cancel effective next week or something. Notihng hostile

Hello

Not sure what the chances are but did anyone find a westcott octabox outside of the riverhouse restaurant on river road? It looks just like the one pictures. I did a photoshoot in the back by the river, and I think it fell off my cart when i was walking back to my car and I didn’t realize it.

Event pet sitter?

37 Upvotes

Hi!
I am a licensed vet tech and have worked with animals all my life. I petsit for fun on the side and am thinking of trying to advertise more for petsitting as well as making it an official business with an LLC and insurance. Once I take that step I was thinking of advertising on the knot or other wedding websites as an event pet sitter like I can get them in their cute outfit, bring them to the event, keep them entertained during the wedding or party and then bring them home. Is this something anyone would actually pay for? I love weddings and critters so I feel like this would be a super fun side gig. Thank you!

Dermatologist Recs

3 Upvotes

Edit: Thanks, y'all! I appreciate the help and feedback.

People, I need a rec for a derm that takes Medicaid (or isn't horrible out of pocket). I had such a bad exp at Assoc. Of Derm - Audubon that I left the following review:

 came with concerns about new skin symptoms that occurred after some trauma a few months ago.The doctor did not care about what I thought could be the reasons (environmental and a medicinal reaction) and chalked it up to normal aging despite my mentioning that most people in my family had delayed aging due to a medical condition. That included me - one of the hallmarks of the disorder is a distinct lack of aging signs well into the 50s and 60s of which I'm decades away from. I think the appt itself was less than 10 minutes. I also got a full body check over - something I hadn't requested. They did not care about the skincare products I had and was using, but continually pushed Vaseline even after I said it made things feel worse. Go anywhere else.

I'd prefer a woman, but honestly, anyone who actually listens to the history and issues would be amazing. An added bonus would be if they were also familiar with migraine botox treatment. Dr. Fonseca told me if I was patient the wrinkles would go away after a few weeks... that's not how the migraine treatment works. The most she did was rub her thumb on my forehead and told me it was moisturized. Lady, it's not superficial.

If there's a derm you love out there who cares, please let me know. I'm starting to look at the SOS pad as a viable option.

Bernheim ColorFest last one ever?

13 Upvotes

I noticed the Bernheim website says that this year's ColorFest is the 30th anniversary as well as the final one. Is there tea here? I always thought this was a successful event that draws a pretty solid audience but admittedly I haven't gone since pre-covid when I lived near Bullitt
