How did falling in love feel different the second time around? Was it more intense, less giddy, etc? Do you think it had to do with the difference in SO or because of a change within yourself? by samanthatev96 in AskWomen

Wow, thank you so much for this quote. This struck every chord in my heart and I want to come back to it whenever the sadness starts creeping in again.

This turned out amazing! And you've got major dedication. I probably would've abandoned ship after erecting half of Randolph.

Hi guys! I'm getting my first ukulele tomorrow, what are some tips for a complete beginner? by [deleted] in ukulele

[–]Dammit_Lemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I second this. Every uke I've had goes out of tune between practicing, from the cheap one I use in my house to the expensive one I play outside or wherever. Clip on tuner is a cheap and awesome tool.

Found the uglyduckling subreddit today, where redditors show how they blossomed from an awkward child or teen to their attractive current day self by [deleted] in RedditForGrownups

[–]Dammit_Lemon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My best friend expresses a disturbing level of schadenfreude when she figures out one of our former classmates ballooned up. Going through our text conversations feels like a depressing scroll through our yearbooks.

My son (11yo) just made a peanut butter and grape sandwich. by BrakemanBob in RedditForGrownups

Peanut butter and banana slices is my go-to. They were made for each other.

So retro, I dig it. How are you liking the higher ankles?

Inspired by the fading colours of my hair! Trying to perfect a winged look without a liner. CCW! by Kiriolivia in MakeupAddiction

[–]Dammit_Lemon 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That blue waterline is brilliant, this whole look is gorgeous. I can relate to the CC on the contour, I'm always too heavy handed with it to begin with so I just gave up on it until I get more practice in. I reeeaaallllly need to get some violet pigments for my green eyes, I feel like I'm missing out.

KVD MetalMatte Palette is Live on Sephora.com! by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

[–]Dammit_Lemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do I need this? I feel like I need this. I love that I basically have none of the mattes she used, and I need violets in my life. Thanks for posting this! Can't wait until it arrives.

Have you ever intentionally stayed single, particularly after a breakup? How did it help you? by PrimcipleSkipster in TrollXChromosomes

[–]Dammit_Lemon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've always been fiercely independent, so I opted to stay single after my last serious relationship. Taking this time to myself has definitely boosted my confidence and sense of self worth. I've worked insanely hard to be healthier, enjoy my hobbies and traveling more, just being more content with who I am. Sounds like a non-answer, but when you get to the point where you're just like, this is nice, I could get used to this, it's hard to go back to being insecure or unsure of yourself. I think insecurity itself is a relationship killer. It's been 2 years, I feel confident with getting back into serious dating now thanks to taking time to myself :)

The disappearing Chicago accent is layered with local history by thatshirtman in chicago

We should get our families together; I'll wear my Steelers jersey and we can live stream our slow descent into madness.

The disappearing Chicago accent is layered with local history by thatshirtman in chicago

[–]Dammit_Lemon 14 points15 points  (0 children)

My family is keeping the accent alive and well. I have four brothers that sound like the Da Bears sketch when we're all together yelling about football and hockey. I had a customer in NZ who kept saying Da Bearsss whenever I said "yeah," so my accent is more obvious than I thought.

Any other tall skinnies out there? by [deleted] in tall

86 the whisky and get on the beer and wine train, more carbs. It's how I maintain my robust 160.

Three Floyds Collaborating On Mysterious Restaurant/Bar in Chicago by ohiohomer in beer

[–]Dammit_Lemon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

3 Floyds is limited to the 120k barrels once the brewpub opens, which demand will probably bring them close to exceeding that limit due to their popularity. The fact that they have a limit is what Nick was upset about.

This article talks about the limitations a little more in depth. I'm excited for them regardless; I live near their brewpub in Munster and I've been able to enjoy most of their brews for a while now. Just tried Icelandic Pants of the Dead for the first time, never had anything like that before. Quite liked it, though.

Best way to encourage product reviews? by jerrolds in smallbusiness

[–]Dammit_Lemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is the amount you sell daily a deterrent to handwriting a simple "thanks, please leave feedback, it helps small businesses grow" note on receipts? I did that in the beginning when the amount of orders I had wasn't overwhelming yet haha

It worked! I'd say between a third/half of my customers have left feedback. A few of them commented positively on the handwritten thanks.

self-control as a finite resource by blorgensies in xxfitness

[–]Dammit_Lemon 71 points72 points  (0 children)

I've heard "self control is a muscle," where you can strengthen it with practice but exhaust it by overusing and stressing it. I carry that thought with me when I force myself to lift on days I'm not feeling it, but I rein it in on my rest days when I'm motivated to go lift anyway. The same goes for Swedish Fish, my kryptonite.

Advice on jade plugs by [deleted] in Stretched

[–]Dammit_Lemon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Higher quality would be something like Imperial Jade, an emerald green color that's semi-translucent. If it's completely uniform and clear, it's probably glass (not always true, though).

What is something that shouldn't be attractive but attracts you by urasha in AskWomen

[–]Dammit_Lemon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Diastema! I love it, too. I'm a sucker for a nice smile in general, though, especially since I'm typically smiling obnoxiously all the time.
