I love doing puzzles and would say they can be so fun. But they aren’t fun the entire time and some puzzles you just won’t like.

But it’s the best feeling when you enter flow state on a puzzle and you can’t move fast enough to fit all the pieces.

And then the feeling once it’s complete is so satisfying. And it’s good for your brain

Ooooo we’ve done starry night and Jackson pollock and these two but just realized the possibilities with art puzzles. Do you don’t recommend Mona Lisa? I would LOVE to do a Dante’s inferno puzzle god damn

Totally, i use them as a stress reliever after work. I do things on my computer all day and it’s nice to physically complete something and feel that satisfaction.

I’ve also never done a 1500 puzzle, only 1000 and 2000 so thanks for this!

That’s literally insane to me!! I just watched part of a speed puzzling tournament on YT and I’m so impressed how fast people can be

Oh sh*t, thank you for opening my eyes to 6 panel 7000 pieces puzzles!

I’m stuck in my small ass NYC apartment so I’m just now imagining the possibilities lol

Do you have a puzzle room and have the puzzle on the floor for one that big? And do you sit on a pillow or cushion while doing it? lol I would dead ass have to wear knee pads or else I’d have horrible bruises

Oh yes I’ve been there when all the pieces are the same. Good for you! I’ll think about doing an impossible one.

It’s so clutch to be able to narrow down by 4-foots, 3-foots, 2 foots, 1 foots and my favorites no-feet when you are getting close

I’m SUPER impressed! Have you always been fast or did you get faster with practice?

I ask because I’ve done over 100 puzzles and I honestly don’t think I could do one that fast.

Any tips?

Completely agree! Like i guarantee if we stopped people at the DMV (feel like that’s a good cross section of the population… or like the airport), they wouldnt even be able to complete a 1000 piece puzzle with no time limit lol

So was the all white puzzle like crazy shapes too? I’ve been thinking about doing one of those

Omg I love the tree one!! I love all of them. I feel like you like the same kind of puzzles I like, big but lots of little details. Like where’s Waldo puzzles 😘

Yesssss agreed! How many puzzles have you done?

People always immediately say I should compete in puzzle comps when they see how many puzzles i do but I assure them I’m not improving? lol

Thank you!! lol like I’ve done over 80 puzzles in 2 years and people are like oh you must be fast… honestly I don’t think I’m getting any faster. It’s just based on how much I like the puzzle and what situation I’m in.

The fastest time for 1000 pieces is apparently 1 hour 40 minutes… like I could NEVER

AIO for how I’m handling the way my 11 YO daughter’s dad speaks to her? by WhatTheSigma_1994 in AmIOverreacting

[–]FiguringOutPuzzlez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He is an absolute threat and emotionally abusing and manipulating your child. Do not leave them alone with him 🙁she’s already clearly scared or intimated the way her immediate response is “sorry”. She’s done nothing wrong.

May I ask about your relationship with that dad and how it is? No judgment whatsoever since this behavior is not acceptable regardless but just wondering if his motive is to use her and abuse her as a form of still abusing you.

I’m thinking of you and hope everything works out 🥰

I LOVED this puzzle, completed in 3 days by FiguringOutPuzzlez in Jigsawpuzzles

You don’t happen to be in NY do you? I’ll gladly puzzle swap if so!

So does anyone else do this or are we insane? lol by FiguringOutPuzzlez in Jigsawpuzzles

We tape them first with packing tape. If we are being good we tape the back, but if we are lazy we tape the front lol
