Well sure, but something can be great without being the GOAT. I can enjoy a meal at Per Se without pretending it’s as good as Waffle House.
People actually eat at Waffle House? I thought it was just for the bathroom stalls and fights.

It was several years ago, but I thought Per Se was disappointing.

Now that my mother-in-law is kicking her out of the house, my sister-in-law -- who, I will remind you, is missing a front tooth, has never held a job for more than three months, and has probably spent less than a year of her life living on her own -- claims an extremely famous A-list rock musician is hiring her to be a live-in housekeeper.

Really don't want to get involved, but I am almost certain this is some kind of scam.

edit: Even more convinced it's a scam now. She's being asked to "verify her information" and talking about "don't worry I didn't give them my main account." Says it's going through id.me, which looks legit, but I wouldn't be surprised if they sent her a spoofed link. She's really cagey about giving details, too.

Maybe she wants to get herself scammed so her mother will feel bad for her and not kick her out.

edit2: yup. https://www.abc10.com/article/money/idme-social-media-scam/103-056c00da-aff0-471d-8b13-b45a5f643b66
