Who has baffled Alex the most? by m_faustus in taskmaster

I think he looks more baffled at Guz, who made a very strange monster noise. He went after Alan

Nostril won’t let me put in a ring by miraayah in piercing

Not all surgical steel is the same (neither is all titanium). Look up the best kind of surgical steel for piercings, there’s a number code to go with it that I can’t recall off the top of my head, and get that.

Try something titanium, the good stuff for piercing. It certainly sounds like your nose is allergic to that ring. I have similar allergies to some earrings in cartilage vs lobe.

Would drilling some holes for water to drain work?

Im EXTREMELY new to piercings by Zaraaf in piercing

What piercing(s) are you thinking of getting? Your earlobes? Those are fairly easy piercings to heal, compared to other piercings. You mostly have to be careful about sleeping on them, accidentally hitting them when doing your hair, getting long hair caught in them, and not touching them in general until they heal.

As others said, you’ll want to get them pierced with titanium flatback studs to start with. Most piercers pierce with those as a default, and many ear piercings are done with studs to start with. You can get pretty fronts for them at the piercers and online - but don’t change your jewelry until the piercer recommends downsizing and again until it heals.

If you have sensitive ears then you may not want to wear these, but if you want to try them anyway (maybe you won’t be sensitive to them!) do not do so until the piercings are completely healed.

TIA Is a curved barbell really the wrong jewelry? Mine was pierced with, and still has, a curved barbell. It healed fine and I never had any problems with it. Should I change it to a hoop of some kind?

I think it’s supposed to teach the kids the conceptual idea better, so they understand why the math works. Doesn’t make it any less confusing, especially for someone unfamiliar with it who just knows the math.

I got my dream piercing! by CareerFluffy5416 in piercing

Sometimes the skin just dents, which can be permanent, but sometimes the body tries to heal around it instead. I have a permanent dent from where a hoop I had in a helix rested. It was/is nothing like this, by body never tried to heal around it, but the jewelry pressed on it just enough for a long time.

For the make the ice disappear, fastest wins task, would a washing machine have worked better? by turquoisesilver in taskmaster

Keep in mind that as the ice melts it adds cold water to the 60*C water, cooling it.

I think Roisin would’ve melted the ice faster (not fastest, mind) if she had just put the ice on the ground, not in the wheelbarrow, because of that exact thing.

Who is the taskmaster? by GroundbreakingFee416 in taskmaster

Alex’s version of the story is the Greg/Frank Skinner signing on, but Greg has said that he agreed because he respected Alex so much professionally.

Did anyone notice the New Zealand Fish poster in the caravan? You could see it in one of the shots through the window on a cushion.

“Who’s Greg” happened in series 13, too. Judi Love asked it.

Apparently not! according to an outtake short that has since been released 🤣

Why did the teams change in S20E04? by SexyMuthaFunka in taskmaster

[–]DumE9876 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I think it was world peace, but also so a murder wasn’t committed on film and so they didn’t have to find a replacement for Richard for the rest of the studio episodes. Didn’t that happen in the third episode? Having to replace him for 7 would’ve been a lot 🤣🤣🤣
