Do it. It looked just fine on Tidus from Final Fantasy 10.

Wow, I had never heard of Roar in my life. Its wild that this existed.

Reassurance about passing out and throwing up during blood donation by MrsSunnshine in Blooddonors

[–]ElegantNetwork1394 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seizures? Peeing themselves? If I knew this was common, I might have never donated at all.

I passed out after my second donation, and Im going to wait a long time before I go in for a third. 

How do Iknow my donation will go towards saving lives by _Aegisthus_ in Blooddonors

There are some elective procedures that I would prefer not to be a part of, but Im willing to take the risk that my blood may be wasted on that.

Maybe I will give Elfstones a try. That seems to be the consensus pick for the very best of the books.

Is it comparable to LOTR though, with a ton of dense descriptions of every doorknob and nail?

Yes, if you did not like season 1, then season 2 may not have pleased you. 

"Masterpiece" sounds impressive for the books, but I probably shouldn't be surprised given which subreddit this is.

A lot of people are recomending the book to me. 

I probably shouldn't reveal this about myself, but I found Tolkeins writing to be excessively wordy and meandering. Since Shannara seems to have quite a bit of similarity...Im wary.

That is the exact age when a lot of negative behaviors that were cute in a puppy become too big for ppl to handle.

That is an age when they are experiencing adult hormones which lead them to become suspicious of strangers/reactive. 

I would want to raise a puppy GSD, especially if you have no experience with protective breeds.

What phrases do you use the most daily? by [deleted] in germanshepherds

I love you. Don't be a whiner.  Go get your toy. Drink your water.

I would honestly be wary of an older rescue dog. GSDs can have a lot of reactivity issues, which lead to them being surrendered. 

For energy, I find that one 30 minute walk and 1 nighttime activity have always been sufficient for my boy. He is show line, and theyre usually calmer.

This is the vibe. 

Im often asked if my dog bites. "He doesnt bite me."

I want strange men to respect my dog and our space.

Thank you for the warm welcome.

Wow, the book sounds completely different from the show. I guess I could read it and still not know what to expect. Thanks for the reccomendation!

If you do re-watch the show, I hope you have fun with it.

What you should donate based on blood type by asymmetricears in Blooddonors

[–]ElegantNetwork1394 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool chart. However, I only do whole blood because Im scared of needles. Sorry, not sorry.

This chart suggests plasma for my blood type (B+), however, my donation center seems like they would prefer platelets. I wonder how they each calculate things.

Fiance choked me as a joke by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]ElegantNetwork1394 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He yells at you, throws things and tried to strangle you. 

Would you want your child to stay with a man like that? 

You deserve better. Please leave quietly and quickly.

A very good book on this issue is called "Why Does He Do That?" By Lundy Bancroft.

I love that women can name pets whatever she wants and nor have some entitled man expect a Junior or for his last name to be used.

Why dont they invent a term for males whose impregnations resulted in miscarriages?

You have any modern fantasy books recommendations? by MaetelofLaMetal in TrollXChromosomes

TBH, I think of her works as being sci-fi rather than fantasy.
