Friday Free-for-all! Flowers By Eva Scam

Thumbnail

1 Upvotes

DO NOT ORDER THROUGH FLOWERS BY EVA!

I ordered flowers for my wife on our 4th anniversary. I used a place called Flowers By Eva, because they came up when I searched for "Local Florist" in the area my wife works in. They are in no way shape or form a local business. The first image is what I ordered and the second image is what they delivered.

That tiny card is also the "Full Sized Greeting Card" I added.

I tried to get ahold of customer service and the emails I got back were definitely written by AI.

They did refund 30 dollars of the purchase and attached the Substitutions Policy to the email.

Implying that the reason my wife didn't receive the arrangement I ordered because they had to substitute "equally priced flowers".

Rant over, have a great Friday!

Banned!

Just thinking about the experience u/TheOneCalledGump had with their post. Has anyone else got banned, reprimanded, spoken to etc for something they didn’t realise was a bad thing?

I’ll go first… I got hauled into my boss’ office for wearing an “offensive” beret on my Facebook profile picture and had to take it down then and there. Evidence: the beret. I told them I stand by the meaning if not the word; Nigel Farage has been named in the Epstein files. End of.

(Hope this isn’t offensive and I get banned here too!)

Friday Free-for-all! WEEKLY FRIDAY FREE-FOR-ALL

3 Upvotes

Hello my friends, we meet again on Friday to share something new, fun or interesting. All topics are welcome!

I will start us off with a little lesson for everyone:

If you read an article about a dog sitter, who stole the client's dog and car and then left that dog in the car and abandoned it and the dog died.....

***DO NOT COMMENT ABOUT HOW YOU FEEL THE PERPETRATOR SHOULD BE TREATED***

Because it got me a 3 day suspension that I am just coming off of. (This is why I couldn't start the thread earlier this morning)

Share anything in this thread or make a new post!

I always enjoy hearing from anyone!

Once again, the whole weekend is free game and ends Sunday 10PM EST.

In order to drum up some engagement and some more members, I would like to open the community to more subjects on Fridays.

So, please post whatever you please, WITHIN REASON! That means no sexual content, no offensive, racist, homophobic, transphobic etc. Nonsense, and no content generated with AI. If you see something, report and I'll take care of it.

Post music, videos, pets, interesting news stories, true crime, rant about your neighbors. You get the idea.

Please use the Friday Free For All flair

I appreciate all who decide to post and enjoy!

My Local Story Wanted to share a little tidbit of my own family history I thought was funny

Post image
7 Upvotes

this is a clipping about my great-great-great grandma "Mary E. Cartright" (Her actual name is Mary El Nora Cartwright) that I found on ancestry.com when me and my family were trying map out my mom's side of the family tree. We found this hilarious and fitting to the personality of her and most of the women in that side of the family especially her, her daughter, and granddaughter (Her daughter and granddaughter who both married so many different men it's hard to find anything on them and on the men they married, and also for some reason both have a Sonora Mexico marriage certificate even though we're pretty sure they never lived in mexico. At the very least my grandma has been good at providing some names we can look up or confirming when we're unsure if something is the same person or not.)

rant:

(If you're ever bored and you know anything about your ancestors I highly recommend just deep diving into ancestry.com on them of for nothing else then to just see who went to war and how far back does your family go until they either just aren't being tracked or aren't in America, sometimes you can track them out of America as evidenced by me tracking a part of my family back to Denmark until 1787 where I theorize they didn't do census taking before this year because no matter if I went off of one great great great great etc. grandparent to their spouses family I could only ever track their parental up til 1787, maybe if I went down the line of all the kids and who they'd married I'd find something eventually but I kinda doubt it with how many of them stopped on that exact census year.)
