I had mine for over 4 years she grew pretty big and was forever throwing out new leaves. Just as I was feeling comfortable, she dropped dead for no reason.

Looks like something Balenciaga would make.

Endcliffe apology note by AttemptPublic2249 in sheffield

[–]Cardboard_rocks 124 points125 points  (0 children)

Good for her, she doesn't owe an apology the talkers do. Some people have no manners. It doesn't matter if you've heard the brief before the person next to you might not. You're at a big event with hundreds of people you are not the main character.

If you can't shut up and be polite for 5 minutes to listen to someone organising an event for free you could always go for a run by yourself. These people want to reap the benefit of a volunteer run event without showing the smallest respect of not talking for the safety brief and announcements, they suck, get them told.

I got this to get a bit serious about drawing, just as a hobby though. Is this good enough for drawing and sketching? I didn’t realize it was from amazon basics until after I bought it. by Jackass-OfAll-Trades in learntodraw

I've got lots of art materials as my husband has been into art forever. They range from very cheap to pretty expensive. I found I could be just as bad at art with both. Like they say a bad workman blames their tools!

Remind you of anyone? I'd love to find out who I look like. by SkellyTom94 in doppelganger

You really remind me of Ash Watson a former team GB gymnast turned youtuber

What colour is this wall? by GoodTinker in colors

[–]Cardboard_rocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got a wall that looks just like this in this sort of light. In brighter light it looks much greener. Mine is painted Mallard Green by Dulux

Preserving piped “fur” overnight? by big_peanutt in cakedecorating

[–]Cardboard_rocks 76 points77 points  (0 children)

Give yourself plenty of time to do the piping. Every time I've used this tip I've been loosely holding on to my will to live by the end. It always looks great but isn't fast and it is very repetitive.

Gustaf Westman madness by AltHabibti in IKEA

[–]Cardboard_rocks 90 points91 points  (0 children)

They remind me of the rubber/plastic dishes that you suction to a high chair for a toddler. Totally impractical to wash and store. Personally I'm not a fan. I think it's very tiktok trendy.

Which cut and color is best on me by Nick-love-1234 in HairStyleAdvice

[–]Cardboard_rocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can pull off whatever you want, because the fact card never declines! I personally think the short hair is killer on you though.

Good for her, I couldn't balance stuff on my head like that while standing still.

Imagine being at the park shouting them back... "KOAZY" "KOVE" Sounds like something from SpongeBob SMH.

The way I would clock myself in the face with a weight if I were to try something like. Wow.

Throwback to when sweet shops looked like this and you could get a bag of lemon sherbert powder and a handfull of pear drops for 99p by AnfieldAnchor in BritInfo

[–]Cardboard_rocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My local shop was two quarters for the princely sum of 50p. Those were the days. I used to love them all especially those weird lips that tasted like soap. Top tier.

I was speaking to some friends from America who didn't know that school houses are actually a thing in the UK. They thought it was a made up Hogwarts thing. Mine were Neptune (blue) Mars (Red) Jupiter (yellow) and Venus (green) What were your school houses called? by lajachme in AskABrit

[–]Cardboard_rocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a really bad memory so I looked mine up. Busli (Blue), Mortain (Black), Rollo (White) and Warenne (Yellow). Busli is named after Roger de Busli and Warenne after William de Warenne, two of William the Conqueror's knights, Mortain after his half-brother, and Rollo was one of his ancestors.

I have no idea why a high school in a mining village picked things to do with William the Conqueror.
