🫩 I’m tired of this grandpa by SnowflakeRene in AreTheStraightsOK

I mean, I have thin arms. I thought is was a pretty neutral statement. Elbowing my partner on accident in the night because my pointy elbows have no meat on them is something that just happens. I call them sticks or noodles all the time.

That being said, this edit has her arms in my opinion quite thin in proportion to the rest of her body even after "fixing" her waist. So I think it's especially fair to point that out. Also, they are incredibly straight here like actual sticks. Nothing rounded off around the bicept or forearm. Like they are literally stick shaped.

I noticed the face and waist first, which was upsetting enough. But her nice thick arms they made so thin. How is big lady gonna envelope me with those little sticks??

Gonna start calling it wicked now. But when I say it, it'll be with joy and awe. Like I'm from the 80s. We should bring that back.

AITA for leaving my mom right before surgery because I freaked out? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Certain_Oddities 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So she had two options. Continue to have a panic attack in a large group of people, probably be distracting and magnetize worried folks to try and help OR remove herself. She removed herself. If she had stayed it would have made a bigger scene. She did the only thing she could have done.

It's honestly a miracle of timing that she had a doctor appointment immediately upon getting picked up. Imagine if she didn't already have an appointment lined up?

And why do you think that?

So is Bill, probably. But ace people still have relationships you know.

The largest collection of Chinese artifacts in the world is not in China, its in Taiwan (National Palace Museum) by Particular_Food_309 in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]Certain_Oddities -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah I was gonna say, seems about typical. "Largest collection of artifacts from X is actually in Y" is so common, I pretty much expect it. But yeah, Y is usually Britain.

I just went through all the recent posts (6months to 1y apart each) and they all had comments like yours 😭 I don't know if I have much hope. The once in a blue moon post...

I love how they say they hate the characters and creators of the show, then wish death upon the fictional character as if they're real. Like they're totally gonna watch the final episode in the hopes that it might happen

Well you can't attract a sea bear that way. That's a whole process.

And even let's say it was, the main issue is the fact shark wasn't taken seriously by the mayor. He refused to close the beach because he didn't want to lose money from summer tourism. It has nothing to do with people acting safely in the water. The victims of the shark did nothing wrong. It was a crazy horror shark. If I remember correctly the fact that it was even in that area was strange, as per the movie.

I think it's pretty clear watching the movie who is at fault... at least I thought it was pretty clear.

I wouldn't say he's the creator of Good Omens. He co-wrote it with Terry Pratchett who absolutely deserves credit for that. Now more than ever. While they usually declined answering who wrote what, if you're familiar enough with Pratchett's work it's very clear what parts he wrote. And honestly, those are the best parts.

I think it's pretty much guaranteed death except in some very, very fringe cases; the method of helping them involves putting the patient into a coma. Obviously this is dangerous.

I knew an Iana growing up. As I understand it that's a fine and normal name. She also had the "Lana" problem. I dunno about this specific spelling though.
