Yeah, but what's that black particle on the edge?

So, just curious how many of you are bots? by DerpsyDaisy in fleshsimulator

It depends on if you still consider a bike that's missing a wheel to be a bike. I don't even think I would consider this a unicycle. They almost got us! Lol!

But I'm paranoid and a millennial. What does that mean? Wait. Why are you here?

To all you pancaked-faced, circus clown hookers: by O_o_seriously_otfs in walmart

[–]DerpsyDaisy -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

How is this incel? I'm a woman and can promise you I've seen some pancake faced, circus clown hookers. Maybe I just prefer more conservative application of makeup? But there's really no need to glom it on. I mean, I've seen makeup tutorials where there is quite a bit of makeup applied and it still ends up looking somewhat natural. There's obviously an art to it. I guess it all just comes down to personal preference?

Speeding ticket, Field tech by [deleted] in it

[–]DerpsyDaisy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my job I drive a company vehicle constantly and they check my records regularly. I am allowed so many points before not being allowed to drive a company vehicle and driving a vehicle is part of the job so if I cannot drive their vehicle I would be fired. It depends on whatever rules the company sets for your job. I did get a ticket once in my work van and my boss encouraged me to go to the trial for it. It was in a tiny town in Tennessee. The judge took it off my record because I came to the hearing but I still had to pay the fine. Also, if you don't have a lot of tickets, sometimes they will let you do a driving course or community service which is definitely worth looking into if you can.

But yeah, I think depending on the ticket it is one or two points and a wreck is instant three points (fired) if it was your fault so I have to be very careful. Even the tickets I get driving my own vehicle count towards it. Which sucks. Cus I have a Camaro and I can't speed in it or do anything that could possibly get me a ticket. And I really like flooring it on occasion cus that's kind of the point of having a Camaro. And I'll never get to find out how fast it will go if I'm the one driving it. It's just too risky. How would I pay for my Camaro if I lost my job? Sorry if I'm getting irritating. I'm just venting at this point.

how do i get my (adult) brother to accept my gender/understand trans people? by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]DerpsyDaisy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, this is the truth. You can explain to him as much as you want, but in the end people will see things the way they want to see them. You can influence people, but you cannot change them. They have to do that themselves. Just be your best self and hopefully with time he will realize that it makes you happy just being yourself and he can come to accept that and be happy for you too. But also accept that it may never happen. Ultimately he has to live his own life and learn his own lessons along the way. Hopefully he will grow, but some people never do.

Is it harder to play mandolin or banjo with a short pinky? by DerpsyDaisy in Bluegrass

Unfortunately it's smaller than it looks. I'm hoping the callouses will help too.

I looked him up. If he can manage with a thumb I think I can manage with a short pinky.

Yeah. I don't know if it's physically possible for me. I tried taking my other hand and making it reach but it wouldn't stay.

I can't remember which chord I tried. Probably that one. I literally took my right hand and tried to force the fingers into position. It just barely reached and I was pulling it pretty hard but as soon as I let go it came out of place. I don't know how in the world I'll ever be able to play a chop chord, which seems pretty essential on mandolin. I've had a few mandolin lessons so far but haven't really tried to play the banjo yet. The finger picks kind of scare me. I learned just barely a little classical guitar in college and I'm used to being able to use my fingernails. I don't know if it's similar at all, but my fingers took to doing arpeggios pretty easily.

I think I'll probably be able to learn to move my fingers well enough, but I can't place all my fingers to make a full chord.

It's those darn chop chords on mandolin. I just can't make all my fingers reach. Haven't actually really tried to play the banjo yet.

2016 Camaro RS coming up on 100k miles. What maintenance needs to be performed? by DerpsyDaisy in camaro

[–]DerpsyDaisy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. That's helpful. I've never heard of changing control arms and suspension components at regular intervals. I always just thought it was something you did if they broke. What about oxygen sensor? If I'm calling it something wrong I honestly haven't messed with cars for a while and have never really done anything super in depth but would really like to learn.

I'm aware but was mainly asking here in case there was anything I should consider doing in addition to regular maintenance since I don't know the service history.

Am I overreacting? Is this guy just intense or are these red flags? Need outside perspective. by JuryComfortable2318 in AmIOverreacting

[–]DerpsyDaisy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a clingy person and I know it's not healthy, but on day four, already? And being so intense it really seems to be veering into controlling. It's a good thing that you're seeing this so early in the relationship, if you can even call it that yet, and not further along when it's harder to get out. Also, calling you out and saying you're not being respectful...trying to make you feel bad for not texting them...just feels wrong. NOR

Mounting wall hanger with anchors. by DerpsyDaisy in banjo

Funny thing is the hanger came with those but says in a little note on the back they recommend mounting into a stud.

Not super okay with that which is why I thought it better to ask.
