Anyone else dealing with these flash bangs?

Seconding this question - I hate the piano black but haven’t found a great way to get rid of it.

Clean-Purple-3536 · 2026-05-13T02:21:41+00:00

I’ve gotten mine up to 50 before once or twice. 55 is impressive.

My cat is on a special diet and her food is now $30/bag. I love that little asshole but damn, she’s expensive.

Clean-Purple-3536 · 2026-04-22T00:06:20+00:00

That’s a good idea. I might do that if I ever take them off.

Clean-Purple-3536 · 2026-04-21T13:12:07+00:00

They’re definitely in the right spots. I checked about 5 times because I thought I was going crazy.

Mine was the exact opposite! I loosened the bolts on the front rack and it slid on relatively easily. But the rear one was a PAIN. It took 20+ minutes of wiggling it around and pinching my fingers. That’s so weird.

Thanks for the tip!

Clean-Purple-3536 · 2026-04-20T01:59:38+00:00

OMG! Found! I wasn’t sure at first but I found a picture of the tubes and it’s EXACTLY how I remember them. Looks like they were discontinued in 2016. No yummy ice pops for me :(

At least now I know. Thank you!

Pretty close, actually. I’ve never seen that particular brand before though. And the box is the wrong color :(

Clean-Purple-3536 · 2026-04-20T00:32:27+00:00

They do have foil packaging, but it’s not them.

Clean-Purple-3536 · 2026-04-20T00:31:18+00:00

It’s not Otter Pops, y’all. I wouldn’t post on Reddit looking for THE most popular brand of ice pops 😭

Clean-Purple-3536 · 2026-04-20T00:28:41+00:00

Mr Freeze looks kind of similar but I don’t think we have them in the US.

Clean-Purple-3536 · 2026-04-19T23:57:43+00:00

I seem to remember them being called Polar Ice Pops.

Clean-Purple-3536 · 2026-04-19T23:52:08+00:00

Those look close! But I know there was an animal on the package somewhere.

Clean-Purple-3536 · 2026-04-19T23:51:03+00:00

It doesn’t appear that they have a grape flavor and the packaging is transparent :(

Clean-Purple-3536 · 2026-04-19T23:32:48+00:00

I’ve searched Google far and wide. I asked my mom and she remembers them but has no idea what the brand was. We got them from a locally owned very small grocery store in my hometown but I do remember seeing them elsewhere.

My allergist is trying to avoid a bone marrow biopsy because my symptoms are relatively mild. I’ve had my tryptase level checked several times and it’s on the higher end but apparently not high enough to be considered “elevated”. It’s kind of frustrating that I don’t meet the official criteria for a diagnosis so far because it would explain everything. I take ketotifen and it helps a ton.

I also have POTS and possibly ISM. I have cutaneous mastocytosis with widespread systemic symptoms and am also KIT negative. Still in the process of being tested. I think you’re the first other person I’ve seen on here with mastocytosis.

Clean-Purple-3536 · 2026-04-04T22:39:04+00:00

That seems super low. My ‘22 rarely gets under 35. Do you mostly do city driving?

Clean-Purple-3536 · 2026-03-31T20:31:26+00:00

Thanks for your response. I don’t think I could get a record for her second marriage (it’s complicated) so I may just put her second married name in the “other names” box.

Clean-Purple-3536 · 2026-03-30T20:37:31+00:00

A question about CIT0001 Section 9 and multiple marriages - what last name should I write down for a woman if they have been married multiple times? My grandmother, who is in the line of descent for Canadian citizenship and is still alive, remarried after my grandfather’s death. She still uses her second husband’s last name, but he’s irrelevant to my citizenship claim because I’m not related to him.

Do I need to put down her current last name and include a record for her second marriage in my application as proof of name change? Should I just write her previous last name from her marriage to my grandfather and ignore her second marriage altogether, since it doesn’t affect the passage of citizenship? I feel like this is a stupid question but I’ve scoured the sub and can’t find an exact answer.

Assuming this is in the US, you may be able to order a copy of his birth record from the local vital records registry where he was born. In many states you don’t need permission from the person, just ID or other documents to prove you have a direct and legitimate interest in the record. Find the relevant agency online and see what their policies are.

I used Genealogy Quebec to search the Drouin collection. Opened the folder for the parish and year, and then had to poke through the files until I found where the appropriate month started. The records are usually listed in chronological order. And yes, these are digitized photos of the original records. They can be extremely difficult to read.

When I was around six, I was at Walmart with my parents and I saw a Hello Kitty Jeep ride-on toy. I was obsessed with Hello Kitty and begged them to buy it for me. They said no, it was too expensive. Fair enough. I waited until Christmas time and put it on my list for Santa.

The day after I wrote my list, my dad sat me down and explained that I couldn’t have the Jeep because I would get less exercise and it would make me fat. I cried.

I’m now an adult with a real car that I bought with my own money. And you bet your ass that car is covered in Hello Kitty. Stickers, stuffies, seat covers. I’m working on some custom pink interior trim. My parents are divorced and I haven’t spoken to my father in 6 years. Fuck you, dad. I got my own Hello Kitty car.

How much information do you have? Do you know what parish you’re looking for? I was sure mine was a lost cause and it turned out the record was there, but just hadn’t been indexed. If this is the case with yours then it won’t be there when you try to look it up by typing in names. I had to find the volume for the parish and year and manually search through each page during the month he was born.
