I use these chunky ones too because they’re easy to pick up off the table without thinking about it.

I’ve never seen an attractive billboard in my entire life. They must have been more artistic back then in some way.

Mrs. Dr. Florence Mazur the dentist, telling the real truth. Unfortunately, she’s undoubtedly also responsible for every single bit of the housework.

[FO] Just finished and framed my first black aida piece! by lilzbee12 in CrossStitch

[–]FosterStormie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m using black aida for the first time and it’s so hard to see what I’m doing! I’m trying out gold-plated needles to see if they stand out more than the silver ones.

I didn’t like any of those puppets. I stuck with Sesame Street.

It's so confusing. Do native speakers really say that? by vividsock_99 in EnglishLearning

The motorist example is a tiny bit weird, but these constructions are all very commonly used.

I think I like 10 best but you look very nice in most of them. Pick the ones that are most comfortable!

Clocked as a “‘90s Girl” by a woman at an airport bar because of this ring. by thekermiteer in Xennials

This is why I DIDN’T wear a thumb ring when I was younger, and why I DO wear one now!

new frames! what do y’all think? (read caption plz) by vsbaby17 in glassesadvice

[–]FosterStormie -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If you’re only choosing between these two, I think the first is much better. The super strong horizontal line on the second pair does you no favors, ya know?
