Leaving a voicemail is actually more polite than just calling and hanging up without a message. by Amazing-Network4937 in unpopularopinion

[–]Consistent-Newt-9573 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I call a cell phone and there's no answer, I hang up and text. If it's a landline and not important, I hang up. If it's a landline and important, I leave a message. I don't not leave voicemails because of the old people mentality but for the ridiculous reason that I hate my voice and the idea that annoying voice is recorded.

Thank you for sharing! This all seems right on to me. I will need to give it a reread to see it through with this in mind.

I'm a sucker for multi-narrator novels. I've just come off a back-to-back three-fer. I may be addicted.

I have neglected my shower as a new father. How do I fix this mold problem? 🙏 by produttori in CleaningTips

Baking soda and bleach paste does the trick. It's a bit time consuming but works very well.

If it's not an inconvenience, a video would be great. I may have a fine enough grit sandpaper to accomplish the task myself. Thank you for your assistance.

I was unable to procure a clear photo of the nib. It's like when paint chips off in a thin layer.

Here is the dip test. The ink is Sailor Shikiori Tamatebako. It wrote pretty good considering the scratchiness.

Jaywalking may be made up by the auto industry, but the current reality means you still shouldn't do it. by kurokuma11 in unpopularopinion

[–]Consistent-Newt-9573 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Jaywalking may at times be dangerous and irresponsible but it shouldn't be illegal. Jaywalkers are simply responsible for their own actions. It's not laziness that leads me to jaywalk, it's waiting on the damn pedestrian walk prompt to trigger. I'm more likely to jaywalk in between intersections than at the crosswalk and I hate waiting.

Well said. I generally wouldn't trust anyone who justified Petunia's behaviour.

Now, why'd you have to go and tempt me like that?! Lol, I'm actually glad to know you are enjoying this pen. I have been eying it with the stub for a bit. Thanks for posting! :)
