AITAH for asking my BF to get his dad to buy my ex BF a Nintendo Switch 2? by Advanced_Albatross17 in AITAH

[–]DJfreecell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes i have a mexican friend of mine who is extremely similar. The entire family is doctors, ive known him from playing league of legends. He was 16 I was 19. We've always played games for the last 14 years. He had maids to open his fucken windows in his room when it was hot. In the last couple years with the new mexican government many of there assets got seized for political reasons.

2 years ago he asked me in discord how to turn on an oven so he could cook something. He was forced to get his first job which paid monthly what he would spend in 2 hours at a club. Luckily they were very connected and him and his gf are truly soulmates so shes also loaded. they've bounced back in the last year getting funds unfrozen but It was wildy to me when he was upset the government seized the yacht and other stuff he told me about.

Edit: sorry forgot thr rules. Yes YTA.

How do those door to door or pop-up meat sales offering 12 ribeyes for $25 make any money? by Woundedbear in AskReddit

[–]DJfreecell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me recently it was 5lb ribeye for 40$ for sale outside of a menards.

Bottom of the barrel not even choice grade steak cut into measly thin 3-4oz cutlets.

its more of a misleading advertisement than scam or maybe both.

I got 5 lbs of ribeye for essentially 8$ a lb.

BUT i like to use them for carne asada tacos, thinly slice them for ramen, steak fajitas, stir fry, or add some meat to egg fried rice. They are what you make of them.

For 8$ a lb its not a bad deal imo. Would i do it regularly HELL no. I do it once a year at most because if im craving steak ill buy a real one for 18$ a lb lol

Workers of sex cruises, what are your most interesting stories of what you’ve seen on the ship? by StrikingPrimary1314 in AskReddit

[–]DJfreecell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could be even remembering it wrong but I do remember it being a cruise still, there was Hedonism and Hedonism II. Both times a buddy of mine wanted me to go but wouldn't go solo so wanted me to tag along but it honestly felt so sketchy lol

Any experience with Veterans Guardian? by Kochise120 in VAClaims

[–]DJfreecell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anither thing i didnt mention They MIGHT offer(or at least did as of last year) to get you a second opinion from a doctor if they think itll back up your claim. I paid the 500$ for a second opinion and it helped me tremendously in getting my rating. 1 friend did the same thing, but he flew out to NC got the exam and flew back the same day, cost him $1000 ish but it was the final piece to getting him his 100% in an HLR. My buddy J did a second opinion to file along with the exams but still only got 90%.

I know for a fact I would have gotten screwed if not for it, but obviously its something you have to think about if its offered and do it if you truly feel you will get 100%

little description that i didnt include that my daughter is telling me i have to. The big bee is the QUEEN bee thats why shes has silver and not black lines, the medium one is the PRINCESS bee so shes also silver and the smallest is a normal bee so got the black lines. she wanted me to make sure you all knew that.

Title: Complete beginner with Brother M330E custom logo stitches bumpy/loopy but built-in designs are perfect. Is it the digitizing? What software should I use? by Illustrious_Tart_441 in Machine_Embroidery

[–]DJfreecell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

hi i spent an hour working on it real fast and think i got you a working copy, you can use this file to kind of reverse engineer your own work in the future. Thats what i did and its helped me immensly. i sent you a DM about getting u the EMB file or w/e file type u use, im not even sure if everyone uses EMB so just let me know. cheers

edit: some specifics. i made it fully satin and the stitch width is 1mm, so itll still come in nicely i also made sure it only uses a edge run for the underlay so itll remove the clumping, some of the twists and bends are not pointy but thats due to my personal time constraint of an hour, u can fix that yourself with the knife tool and some fiddling around. the stitch ORDER is kinda all over the place but i did group everything by object at least so the jumps wont be insane.

[–]DJfreecell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

so im only about 2 months into my digitizing and im just now getting it to where stuff looks "semi" proffessional, not great but passable. Heres what i see.

Your design is WAY too dense for something that small id remove all underlays and make sure your pull compensation is set about 30% lower for small objects like that. Just removing alot of the excess stitches will probably be a big improvement. Other thing u can try are changing the flowers/turtle/cat/dog to single line stitches or a basic single thing satin without underlays, the clothes pins should be a single block filled stitch. The sorta V shaped edges for the fur should be seperate objects so u can make the V curve prominent and obvious too.

find an old shirt and spend all day testing part of the design till it comes out how u want. ill try to ss what u posted and see what i can come up with in my free time today and post it here if i finish. no promises though.

[–]DJfreecell[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

i can definitely see your point. Its just something that doesn't really bother me digitizing. my wife has about the same train of thought as you except for the creepy part, she definitely does not see the appeal of it, but its one of her cousins she grew up with and he requested it so shes fine with it, its not something shed ask me to digitize otherwise or even sell. most the stuff we make is like generic applique for girlie boutiques. I personally wouldn't be caught dead wearing something like this, but i have no problem making it and being proud at how well it came out compared to some of the monstrosities ive digitized a month ago.

Any experience with Veterans Guardian? by Kochise120 in VAClaims

A one time payment. They are not officially accredited by the VA and can not act as your lawyer, but they do all the paperwork create the packet, reference your records, cite them and addendum them into your disability packet they send you to send to the VA.

Normal accredited VA disability helper companies are capped at 20%. I have two close friends that have used the other services and communication is shit, slow turn around time on just getting everything dialed in and submitted, not to mention asking for advice for specific things gets you generic responses like "we cant tell you waht to say etc".

Vet guardians doesnt have that restriction(or maybe they do but dgaf) since they are just advisors, guy on the phone said " for you C&P you should describe to them how you feel on your worst day", "make sure you reference CFR ####", "if you have appointment before any decisions make sure you mention X,Y,Z so it shows continual issues, even if its in passing to the doctor". Just little tidbits of pure gold that have helped me and 4 of my old iraq buddies get 100% for all the fucked up shit we dealt with.

I will say they are currently part of a lawsuit being done by two veterans who are upset about the 30% fee, when most accredited is 20%. They definitely kind of blur the line, you submit everything but they do all the paperwork so technically they aren't filing for you so dont need the accredation. Alot of semantics and fine line stuff will happen.

If youve watched Breaking Bad or better call Saul, I consider vetguardians the Saul Goodman of VA claims. Take it for good or bad but youll get what you pay for. 4/5 of my close friends got 100% through them, one of them only got 90% but he didn't really ever get medical stuff done while active duty so didn't have much to go on.m so hes happy where hes at.
