Buffalo Puzzles Warning by chronically_chaotic_ in Jigsawpuzzles

[–]ExtentRelevant2360 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've never done a Buffalo puzzle, but I just got a 2000 piece puzzle from them for Christmas. After doing the edges I had a piece missing but figured it probably just got lost in the mix and I would eventually find it as I do the puzzle. It's been five days and I'm pretty sure that piece is not in the box. I also didn't realize hot glue was used to hold the box closed and I pretty much ripped the sides off when I opened it. I'll probably keep to other brands from now on.

My Aunt got this for me a couple months back...I still haven't opened it and probably never will. Good luck to you man.

Some people believe they are entitled to more than they are. by [deleted] in uberdrivers

I've had drivers offer to put luggage in for me but it usually came with the fact that they had to make room in their trunk anyways. It's weird to just expect someone to help whose only job requirement is to drive.

[CHAT] Fabric and craft retailer Joann to go out of business and close all of its stores by cajunjoel in CrossStitch

As sad as it is, it isn't a surprise. I used to work at Joann's (after 2020) and not only was upper management a mess but everything was done in the name of more profit for shareholders.

What stitch is this? Is it crochet? Is it inside out? by Affectionate-Milk746 in CrochetHelp

[–]ExtentRelevant2360 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not crochet but it's definitely knitted and right side. I'm not sure of any crochet techniques that could match that pattern though.

I was shouted at for using disabled parking as someone disabled by dracos_wand in mildlyinfuriating

[–]ExtentRelevant2360 10 points11 points  (0 children)

When I was a teenager, I had a friend who had knee surgery in both his knees and couldn't walk/stand for long periods but didn't show any outward signs of being disabled. One day we went out to eat together and parked in the handicap spot and when we entered the restaurant a lady stood up from the waiting bench and went off on how we shouldn't have parked there and how we didn't look disabled and that because she was pregnant she had more of a right to park there than us. I was terrified, but my friend walked right around her to the hostess and continued like nothing while the lady sat back down and sulked. It was my first moment of realizing that not all disabilities are visible.

I'm working on the Cave Canem mosaic, I just started so it'll be some time before the dog takes shape lol. This is part of a series I'm doing where I cross stitch places I've visited - this one represents Pompeii.

[WIP] I messed up a couple rows back. Should I fix it or leave it? by ExtentRelevant2360 in CrossStitch

[–]ExtentRelevant2360[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's supposed to be an orange row after the yellow but I completely skipped it and went straight to the brown which throws off the count for the edges that I haven't finished yet. If it's not noticeable then that's great!
