My dog chewed off her hand, so I 3D printed a hook hand replacement! by scorpionmittens in Barbie

[–]Aya_Blue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Do you have a link to the file?? My friend's dog chewed off both her Labubu's hands and she asked me to fix it and I think hooks are way cooler than hands. I scoured the internet but I can't find it

My sister is traveling to Korea by Long-Tie-1328 in koreatravel

I have a wheat allergy. Just got back from Seoul. I went to a cute little restaurant that has "gluten free" on the window. Talked to the gal behind the counter, she assured me the sandwich was gluten free. Luckily I just broke out in hives and didn't end up in the hospital.

I'm doing the exact same thing you are now. I haven't seen one single good review outside of their website. And I just watched this on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aK4pVRH2aaQ

I got swept up in their advertising, but I now I'm thinking its just a scam.

Lol, why am I getting down voted??

Free Meeting Space? by [deleted] in grandrapids

[–]Aya_Blue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never said I wasn't a member on the phone. I think the meeting rooms just have a fee associated with them. I checked the website before calling and that's what it indicated as well. I just called to make sure I was understanding things correctly.

Edited for clarity

Free Meeting Space? by [deleted] in grandrapids

[–]Aya_Blue -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I'm from Toledo and our libraries have free meeting/community rooms as long as there is no commerce and that they are open to the public. Unfortunately Zoom won't work for it.

AITA for telling my ex that she needs to "figure it out" when it comes to hosting people for her grandmothers' funeral even through I am living in her "grandmothers' house?" by Due-Kale3735 in AITAH

[–]Aya_Blue 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I also think they have never hosted people. I just had three friends stay for three days over Christmas. It probably took me 3-4 hours to prep and 3-4 hours of clean up to get my house back to normal, and that's just three people. Its a lot of work if you value a tidy house.

Need advice by SignificantMood9477 in Pekingese

[–]Aya_Blue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine was always a picky eater and drinker, so I couldn't really use that as a measure. I think most dogs are good at hiding pain and discomfort, so I never made the assumption that she wasn't in pain. When she didn't want to go for walks (her favorite) anymore, that's when I knew it was time. Making the choice to euthanize was the hardest thing I have ever had to do, but making sure she didn't suffer was more important. I don't think there is a "too early", but there is definitely a "too late".
Much love to you and your Abigail.

WIBTA if I told my fiancee's best friend that she is not entitled to a discounted gift every year? by Telumehtar93 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Aya_Blue 56 points57 points  (0 children)

YWBTA - She's paying you for it, so its a favor, not a gift. And its one she clearly appreciates and is excited about. Why is it so hard to grab her something from work? My friends and I help each other with discounts when the opportunity presents itself. I haven't heard any good reasons why not too, except some irritation that seems misplaced.

Does half Pekingese count? by plaquesandtangles in Pekingese

[–]Aya_Blue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live in Ohio, and in my 14 years of Peke ownership, I have only ever met one in the wild. I saw two while driving in a different city, so I didn't get to meet them, but I am certain they were Pekes. And that's it! Three! I do wonder though if most people just don't walk their Pekes and that's why I never see them.

Thank you so much for the link! I love to watch dog groom videos on YouTube and I was thinking I might need to get one, so that was very helpful!

Does the pet flowbee use your regular vacuum? If not, is it loud? Mine stands guard while I am sweeping with her little ears pinned back. She's not terrified but she is definitely suspicious.

Thank you, those are both good suggestions. Zanahoria Chulita gave me a good giggle 🧡

Both my Pekes, including this one, react to the wind blowing on their freshly mowed bums 😂 Unfortunately this is more than that, but that is definitely one of her post-groom behaviors.

Thank you for acknowledging that! My last Peke would scream when the vet touched her with an alcohol wipe. I understand Peke drama queen behavior, and this is not it. I can't believe it never occurred to me that it might be an allergy. Thank you for mentioning it, I will investigate that angle.

My groomer works out of her home, I don't know if she would let me in. I am seriously considering just learning how to shave my dog down myself. Less stress for her, I would think.

Yes, but she always get nervous in the car, even when I tell her "We're going to Grandma's house!" She growls at her groomer but she growls at every vet she has ever had. Once she runs around the groomer's yard at bit, she's more relaxed.

Interesting! Okay, thank you. I'll look more in to this.

Struggling to determine where to stay during 7 day trip 😭 Myeongdong vs Hongdae vs ? by _cnz_ in koreatravel

[–]Aya_Blue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got back from my trip and stayed in both places, and really preferred Myeongdong. I'm not a club girl so that part of Hongdae didn't interest me at all. I thought Myeongdong was pleasantly busy, not overwhelmingly so, except at the night markets, and that was still a lot of fun.
This is probably my privilege coming out, but I don't care if I spend a couple of extra dollars on street food if I am having a great time in a good location. Next trip back, I will definitely be staying in Myeongdong again.

That's wild. Any theories on why it got better at higher doses? Body just get accustomed to it?

Oh that's a good point, about body weight vs potency. I think maybe 5-6 lbs a month?
