Hornbarf /hornbarf/ - a crazy explosion of really wrong notes at the worst possible time.

“Everyone heard my hornbarf echoing off the rafters of my church”

“ I still don’t know what happened….must’ve been a hornbarf”

I had a very difficult time shopping today and I’m new so I’m still learning how to do this. It was a prepaid order and when I went to check out I chose the self checkout at Krogers. I scanned the barcode I was given in the app but for some reason it didn’t take and after scanning the groceries, the register was asking for payment. I tried using the instacart credit card and it wouldnt work. The girl working had to cancel the whole order and i rescanned the entire order and then I ended up using my own credit card (Apple Card) to pay for it. By now I was at least 30 minutes late and I felt embarrassed and wanted the customer to get her food. I thought I had seen something in the app about them giving rebates if you use your own credit card. The order cost $80. Delivered the order and got home and looked thru the app to discover that they do not refund you if it is a pre paid order.

I’m upset 1) loosing $80 and 2) there were no training videos about how to complete this type of order so I was not aware of this. In fact they should make you batch eligible by having a prepaid training so you don’t make this mistake.

Have any of you ever had this problem and how did you get your money back?

My first colonoscopy is tomorrow. Is it okay to take Imitrex (sumatriptan) before a colonoscopy if needed? I sure hope I don’t need it but want to make sure. Thanks.

I’m new at this and just started. It seems that when I check out, the cashiers kind of know I’m with Instacart. Is the app somehow tagging you — when you walk in or check out — with the grocery store clerks?

What is worth saving money on?

I notice my embrochure shifts when I reach C in the staff and above. My jaw wants to push forward and the tone gets thinner and I miss more notes. Any advice to fix this? Also do you have any good breathing exercises to increase your air flow when playing? Thanks

I just bought a bottle of Jelly nail polish at the dollar store. Do you have any tips of how to apply this? Is it supposed to be very shear or more opaque? It is a watermelon color leaning towards red when it is more opaque.

Also how do you get the jelly effect with regular nail polish?

Thanks! 😊

I just read from the news that taxpayers of Virginia Beach essentially paid for 45% of the new Atlantic Park attraction and now they need more money from somewhere else for AP to pay its debt because it didn’t make the revenue expected. Every time we turn around the city if using taxpayer money to fund another big project. Does it seem to anyone else that since we are making investments in all these projects , the city should send us a dividend check each year? What do you think?

Thinking of buying a condo or townhouse in the next couple years and wonder how you practice on that situation without disturbing neighbors. Do you look for an end unit or use a special mute? Any tips are appreciated. Thanks.

Is there a class you can take to learn how to write orchestration? Or is that included in some music degree? I’ve always created orchestration in my head but would love to know how to get it on paper.

I have almost zero experience working in the medical field (except for volunteering in a hospital when I was in high school). I’m interested in becoming a medical biller and /or coder. The local college has an accredited AAPC program for about 6-7k. I told my hairdresser about this aspiration and she was concerned that when I got thru the program AI would be taking all the jobs in this field. Now I’m unsure of what to do 🫤. Do you have any insights about the future of this field relating to AI?

My other idea is to take a real unofficial online course thru Stratford Career Institute in Medical Assisting and see if I can get my foot in the door as a receptionist and eventually work my way into billing later. What do you think?

I’m seriously considering this field and am looking for a good training /certification program. Online asynchronous classes would be a plus. I live in Virginia. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Also if any programs are NOT so great let me know so I can avoid them. I’m looking at Bryant & Stratton but they are getting some bad reviews. Thank you!! 🙏
