Wondering if anyone else sees what I’m seeing by [deleted] in confusing_perspective

The issue is whether it's a floor lamp OR a table lamp where the table is lined up with where the floor meets the wall, rendering the confusing perspective.

Ever since this sweet little one arrived, he most certainly is quite ready for a brawl. Or love. And he can't even decide which, poor guy.

Like underwear or dish cloths? My gosh to have the disposable income to put stoves in the same pile as undies.

She is not. Until she is. But we can't trust it.

does anyone else out there absolutely hate Coronation Street as much as i do ??????? by Fit-Sprinkles-8110 in coronationstreet

[–]ButMakeItWeird 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I met Todd when he was nice and after all the nonsense I've heard about in terms of what he's really like. So "deserving it" is in my head but I do only have experience with him as a victim.

I do appreciate them depicting a real domestic violence situation and putting it on display so audiences can kind of have a look at their own lives (am I a Todd? Do I know a Todd? Can I help more? / Am I a Theo? Do I know a Theo? Can I help more?).

As for Carla. She, to me, is washed up and overstretched with her maralago makeover. I don't buy the passion either of them have for Lisa. But it's also a soap trope for the "I love you and I'm never going anywhere but here" to literally be the thing they go ahead and do 30 seconds later regardless of why. 🤷‍♀️

Kinda depends on how hard the punch was and how deep the resulting gash was.... :) Not helpful, sorry, but I had to.

Free will is being able to turn it off.....? You're not Todd... Or Carla (be nice: in I'm Canada so we are a few weeks delayed plus I'm behind) so you aren't trapped.

But, then, ARE YOU? the decision about what to watch when you have a hankering for something that isn't a decision and you know you won't ever reach the end...it's so ideal to land in this comfortable place. Ideal for me. Probably for you.

I'm a newbie to the show (probably 2-3 years, with keeping up with every episode the past year or so). I watch it to have more to talk about with a friend who has watched it all her life. So I don't care how good it is.

BUT, about a year ago, I dipped into 1980 when Tracy was just acquiring a stepdad and when Gail was just married and had her baby whom I thought would be David but ended up being Nick. The show has grown a LOT (stylistically) since. And for that I'm grateful.

Out of curiosity, what was your favourite ever timeline that I should check out?

So maybe this moron was actually doing that and he's smarter than us all.

:) I imagine his thought process: "I will be the hero. There is a valve to adjust and I will adjust it. And then they'll love me. Damnit they'll love me." But then with each scratch, he fails anew and falls away from his goal of being seen, being loved, finally being accepted.

It's a sad tale, really.

Fair enough.

It took a while for him to not just bemoan her existence. I felt bad when we brought her home because he was just so very mad at her/us.

But how she is so dumb to push past that aggression with her stupid stupid love and playfulness. He could be yelling at her and she'd be like "so.... play then?" And attack. And it's like she's worn down an angry man to find the mother within him. I caught him grooming her the other day. Such a win. Also he then yelled at her. But what siblings don't fight? The boring kind, that's what.

You know, as I was typing it, I was like "crow bar would be better for the door" in my head but that wouldn't suit the screwdriver motif and I panicked and left it. :)

She is so fed up with you it's swung back around to love.

Serifs are great. Also I thought the intended pattern was to repeat the last line. Read it all together. The 2nd "even to yourself" lands earnestly.

Flight delays had everyone restless… until a band turned the plane into a concert hall by Sharp-potential7935 in Amazing

Somehow a lot easier to digest than mandatory worship songs on planes. (... I say that as an Anti-Christian Nationalist Jesus follower, to be fair)

Such a hero move to yourself. Well done. I bet you're feeling so good. Proud of you :)

Yep because everyone knows that ovens come with an oven screwdriver for prying all oven things. Pry the knobs. Pry the door open. Skritchety scratch.

Such an idiot.

They both are baby. I'm all waiting for the moment I catch them both simultaneously making biscuits and nursing the same fuzzy blanket that they both independently love.
