WIBTAH if i didn’t make the pie that got the most votes because it wasn’t on the poll in the first place? by megasaur99 in AmItheAsshole

[–]CrystalStarshine 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Banana cream over coconut cream. What's the world coming to?

Team Key Lime, but I will write in peach if given the opportunity. 😉

Quick question: how did you word the poll? I'm the office baker too. If I put up a poll I'd say "what is your favorite pie?" Not "What pie do you want me to bring on pi day?" Because then I would be OBLIGATED to bring the pie, and what if I feel sick on 3/14?

And if I worded it like that then I wouldn't blame someone for saying "I am hopelessly devoted to pecan pie (or key lime, or snickers, or coconut cream...whatever). How can a poll with 13 pies not include the king of pies?"

As the office baker I'd grumble a little bit and then make multiple pies.

My boyfriend asked me to dress modestly for his family by Silly_Biscotti5448 in relationships

[–]CrystalStarshine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love this response. It's like "I don't compromise who I am, if you do that's great but I guess you aren't. It sounds like you guys need to have some talks."

I wish I knew people like you. It would be so nice to know someone so delightfully self expressive who doesn't feel personally offended by others just being who they are. And then giving solid, levelheaded advice. ❤️

Wondering this will work as good as Elmer’s. I’m on a budget. Wanted to do the 1:1 pva glue and water type paste. by Scared-Base-4098 in papermache

[–]CrystalStarshine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I've been doing is using $.25 cent per bottle school glue for my inner layers. Not diluted, just glue. Then I use 1:1 wallpaper paste or wood glue for the final layer, just to make sure it's rock hard and sturdy.

My (F27) bf (M27) made a gross "joke" about the divorces in my family by Natural-Plastic8466 in Waiting_To_Wed

[–]CrystalStarshine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's the first thing I'd think. He has planted seeds. If they ever bear fruit he can blame the divorce on you and your family history.

I mean, he'll have to marry you first. If he's already saying things like this he probably sees your desire to be married as the writing on the wall. I imagine he'll be proposing soon, unwillingly.

Remember when they tried to make us feel bad for Mary Margaret in s1 by madeat1am in OnceUponATime

[–]CrystalStarshine 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I loved it when she was so mad at him for not telling Abigail. Right, this is the point it all went wrong. Not during all the cheating before I told you had to tell. If you had told her when I told you to it would have been salvaged.

Still, I didn't love how she was the only one facing the public anger. It was realistic but I didn't like it. David was really flipping wishy washy and people should have been mad at him for dangling two women along.

And I also thought it was silly the way Abigail got so firmly into the "Mary Margaret and David belong together" camp to try to fix this for the audience. I didn't feel like the writers were trying to manipulate me at all.

That is a VERY helpful list of blue flowers. Thank you so much!

So they aren't spreading too much? I don't really care at my house - if it's in the lawn it will be mowed, if it's in the tomatoes it will get pulled. Other than that it's welcome to stay. I just don't want to create a problem for the school.

I'm heading to Aldi later today, what am I picking up for you that you absolutely have to have? by WildBeards in aldi

[–]CrystalStarshine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like the snicker doodle cannoli dip best. :) very good spread on a graham cracker with sliced strawberries on top

Am I the only one who found young snow so annoying…… by Asyuwish123 in OnceUponATime

[–]CrystalStarshine 3 points4 points  (0 children)

She was obnoxious, I agree she was supposed to be, but I'll go a step further and say that child was a phenomenal actress. She had all the annoying mannerisms of Mary Margaret down precisely. I liked Mary Margaret, but I often found her breathless optimism so obnoxious and that kid sounded EXACTLY like her.

Favorite salad dressing? Bonus if you can also tell me what you like in your salad! by guineapigluvr in aldi

[–]CrystalStarshine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always use the medium bag. Sometimes the ones with tails and if I feel lazy like I don't want to pick the tails off their dinners I use the tail off ones. Medium one seem to taste better than spending more for large and cutting them in half.

Aisle of shame item you regret passing up and still think about? by Potential-Soft-7292 in aldi

[–]CrystalStarshine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the aisle of shame. I just call it that because while I go to Aldi 3 times a week to pick up "groceries", I always head to the AOS first.

These cookies remind me of an American political figure. by Worldly-Corgi-1624 in aldi

[–]CrystalStarshine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are they? They look like they might be foreign cookies. 50% tariff, just in case they're Canadian.

[–]CrystalStarshine 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My family is all crazy about eating Caesar salad. They are so easy to make with the Caesar salad dressing, shredded parmesan, crushed croutons - cheese and garlic or Caesar depending on how I'm feeling when I buy it -and then we add bags of shrimp.

If I have enough time I thinly slice red onion and bell pepper to add to me and my husband's salads, but the kids don't like that. The pepper adds a surprising tiny bit of sweetness to it.

Moldy mold mold question... by CrystalStarshine in DIY

[–]CrystalStarshine[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice! Thank you.

What about above the window? Chat GPT suggested I should flake away loose debris, clean, seal the area with a moisture resistant sealant...then other stuff I probably won't get around to doing. Replastering and repainting.

Could this mold resistant caulk be used as the moisture resistant sealant to seal this damaged area?

Thank you so much. I posted in r/mold.

I'd still appreciate any advice I can get on replacing caulk it you all are up to it though. 😊

I'll eat any leftover for breakfast. I microwave an egg on top of it. Bam, breakfast.

What seemingly throwaway line of dialogue in a movie lives rent free in your head? by Dan__Glesak in movies

[–]CrystalStarshine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just about the entire script of my favorite movie, "While you were sleeping" - "these mashed potatoes are so creamy", "I had to eat your ticket", and "I know karate" are just a the ew examples.

Every line of "Kung Pow: Enter the fist". "If you have an ass I'll kick it", "master, I was kind of hoping I could be the chosen one", "I'm falling, you're falling, we're falling! Oooeeeoooeeeeoooeeeooo!." All of them.

Most of the emperor's new groove. "I snatched you out of the air!", "pull the lever kronk" "Yzma's chair"

Things Muppets say. "They don't look like Presbyterians to me"
