So does anyone remember Ariaz? They were a girl group that debuted in the 2nd half of 2019.

They had a stellar debut mini album and great debut single. Then they disappeared and quietly disbanded after a 3-4 year hiatus.

I always wondered why Finn Balor doesn’t use the 1916 (Double Underhook Brainbuster) as his finisher. He used it as his finisher during his heel run in NXT but that’s the only time he’s used it.

With WWE being a bit more lenient with head-spike to the mat moves in recent years, why not switch to the 1916.

Honestly never been a fan of the Coup De Grace. While he gets good height for it, his landing never hits for me, it looks so soft.

If you’ve seen Low-Ki hit it back in the day, that move looked like he stomped a hole into his opponents chest.

I know the WWE-style probably has Balor hitting a softer landing but man it never sold me as a devastating finisher or a move that finishes a match.

so when twice’s Ten album came out, I honestly didn’t care for most of the solo tracks. Chae’s being one of them.

The vocal effect and PinkPantheress sound was such a put off. (I am a fan of Pink just weird that they had Chae’s solo sound and voice sound like hers.)

But suddenly today on the at back home from finishing up errands, I had the want suddenly to just listen to In My Room.

Now it’s been on repeat for the last 3 hours on Apple Music.

Any thoughts on this and your thoughts on the Ten Solo tracks or even just In My Room?

So I’ve been driving around for an hour now today and only 3 orders have popped up (all terrible, almost a dollar per mile or high item count for under $20)

Should I just give up for the day and head home??

First things first. The amount of representation for KPop and Korea at the Met Gala today is awesome to see.

- All 4 Blackpink members
- Karina & Ningning of Aespa

But I have to ask, why don’t they ever get together for a photo??

Like first time ever I believe all BP girls are at Met Gala and no photo together.

How about all 6 of them together or a mix of Karina and Jennie.

Jisoo and Ningning

Lisa and Karina.

Like how are these moments so easily missed??

You can’t say it’s a label thing (SM and YG) since the Blackpink girls are also on their own labels individually.

Like cmon. We need those pics to exist.

so does anyone else wish the true Korean kpop variety shows (tv and YouTube) were still a thing?

Idol Room, Weekly Idol, Running Man (back when they featured idols more often and cosistantly) Fact In Star, K-Rush, 1theK YouTube skits/segments, Idol Master, and all the Korean variety YouTube channels. All a thing of the past for the most part.

Most of the kpop group contents are just directly from their own YouTube channels, and while it’s still entertaining, it’s no where near the enjoyment of seeing them on a variety show with a witty and funny hosts.

Even the music show behind the scenes videos on YouTube are nearly nonexistent. (I loved watching Show Champion Behind the Scenes)

Seems like most kpop groups now just bother promote on their own channel or all the boring US YouTube channels where it’s the same 1-2 members of any group that does the talking and everyone else is just there.

Example:

I can’t tell you how many friends and people I talk to about Blackpink (don’t hate on me using them as an example pls) and they all say Jisoo is so boring. What is she?? She never says anything on tv.

Yet when blackpink are on Korean shows, Jisoo is the most entertaining to watch. Her 4D personality shines through.

And don’t use the language barrier as the reason most kpop groups don’t talk outside of 1-2 members.

So the past couple of weeks in my area has been utter crap. Low paying high mileage orders, high item count low pay and maybe 1-2 decent to worth while orders here and there.

I know it’s the first days of the month (people get their money) and Cinco De Mayo is days away, is it worth doing orders this weekend??

Or should I expect to drive around for 2 hours with nothing but bad orders like the past couple of weeks??

FYI: I’m in Southern California area
