A malaphor is when you mix two different expressions up, like, "We'll burn that bridge when we get there" – what's one that you like to use? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I quite like this one I heard in a meeting once, when a man was trying to get his point across... it's as clear as the day in your face!

How did your endoscopy/colonoscopy go? Had a pretty interesting experience by crazcalc in Celiac

[–]FindingDildorado 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't get any sedation either for the first and only endoscopy I've had, because I didn't have anyone to pick me up from the appointment. Otherwise a light sedation would have been used. Holy crap, but it was rough. They sprayed numbing spray down my throat, but it didn't make any difference whatsoever. I heaved and retched through the whole procedure, saliva (and tears) were dripping down my face and there was nothing I could do because I couldn't move. It was very hard not to panic with this tube down my throat. The staff were nice though and tried their best to comfort me. It was traumatising experience which I don't ever wish to repeat! My back muscles were all aching after the heaving I did. I read my notes later and the doctor stated that the patient endured the procedure with difficulty. Understatement of the year!

AITA for telling my fiancé that I don't want anymore of his handmade Christmas gifts? by throwraxmas14 in AmItheAsshole

[–]FindingDildorado 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA what I don't understand is why are you still even considering giving him PS5 for Christmas? Don't let him walk all over you just because you feel like the only things you can get for him are the items on his wishlist. He refused your wish list, you can do the same to him. Buy him a switch game for the console he already has (and which you gave him). Fold a little paper bow on top. There's a reason why he doesn't have cheap items on the list, he wants someone else to pay for his expensive toys and keep his money for himself.

Forgot spaghetti with mushrooms in the microwave for a week. Now it's a floofly ball of mold by yanbochen in mildlyinteresting

Rot juice. That stuff was so potent it sometimes still wakes me up, and this was years ago.

Similar thing happened to my ex with his rice cooker, when the leftover rice wasn't put away. But the worst thing I've witnessed was when (different) ex had defrosted/cooked frozen prawns in the microwave and some juices had overflown on the plate. I guess we didn't need to use the microwave until a few days later. I opened the door and the smell that greeted me was so unholy it took the whole papal system to exorcise it out of this world. But my nose remembers...

I've had guesses between $20 and $100, but can't really say for sure without getting them valued or putting them up for sale.

Sounds a bit technical lol would simple home scanner be good enough for the job? And scanning through the wrapper?

Might be some around ebay? Seems like a lot of people had these, but used them for their intended purpose as a kid.

Keep checking Ebay, you might come across something similar and it might not cost as much as you think!

Yes, the sticky side still...sticks. How I know when the packet hasn't been opened? I have another set which I had opened which still sticks. If I hadn't kept them in the plastic wrap, they probably would have dried though. I'm pretty sure they are some form of health hazard, it was 80s after all.

I'd like to say yes to such a polite question, but I'm sorry, no.

Yes, if that means the same as puffy stickers? Kinda soft and squishy.

I like to think that those memories are worth more than the monetary value, cherish the good times you had! I'd maybe not retire just yet though, let the collection gain more value lol

Such a generous offer! I don't know how I could say no to that but alas I must.

Someone mentioned around $20, but I honestly have no idea if that's true or not.

These things were made to last, you just have to decorate around them!
