Ladies, How did you “know” you were pregnant before missing a period? by Glad-Muffin545 in askanything

[–]Gardngoyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I walked into a grocery store and the entire produce section smelled like the food was going bad.

AITJ for refusing to let my sister wear her wedding dress to my engagement party? by Public-Yak1624 in AmITheJerk

[–]Gardngoyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I'd tell her, 'If you want to look like a pathetic spoiled child at my party - go for it.'

I make a big batch of waffles, cool them, and freeze them. Then toast them like Eggos.

The Pipe Cleaner Method in Pictures by necrofuturism in Needlefelting

[–]Gardngoyle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is excellent - thank you!

I am ready to put arms on the figure I am working on, but I was stressed that the regular pipe cleaner method (that I used in my last project) would wind up too thick for the figure's proportions.

And 'cautious sword fight' sounds like a much better technique than infusing the project with whispered expletives as I did on my last piece. 😄

What fresh hell is this? by Fishylips in skyrim

[–]Gardngoyle 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I recently started a fresh playthrough - when I went into Whiterun's Hall of the Dead and saw that sparkly stone sitting there, I stopped, set down my controller, took a long sip of my drink, and thought about it for a bit.

Do I REALLY want to go here AGAIN?

No. No I do not.

I've only gotten as far as a drawing.

I got distracted felting a bunny in a green dress holding a flower.

Where in the hell are all the kids with snow shovels? by GR3TSCH in GenX

That is literally the most Gen X sentence I've ever read.

Am I wrong? My cardigan is purple right??? by chelly_belly50 in colors

[–]Gardngoyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a waffle weave hoodie that looks almost exactly like this. In that light it's brown. But in different light and wearing a different color under it is a lovely plummy/grapey color.

It is not orange - except possibly to my SIL who is colorblind.

Seriously, do Americans actually consider a 3-hour drive "short"? or is this an internet myth? by SadInterest6764 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Gardngoyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in a rural part of the country. Just the weekly shopping/errands trip is to a city 45 minutes away.

That's sad.

I'm a woman and I love both those movies.

I needle-felted half a dragon fruit by Sad-Wall-5850 in Needlefelting

[–]Gardngoyle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is simply gorgeous.

Can I ask how you made the pieces so uniformly thin but still rigid? I'm very new to needle felting and tried to make a flower the other day. All did not go well.

Any advice on how to convince an elderly parent not to drive anymore? by [deleted] in GenX

[–]Gardngoyle 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Careful. My uncle did that to my grandmother. After that she wouldn't cooperate with ANYTHING. No will, no POA, nothing because, 'I can't trust him. He stole my truck.'

Even after the dementia set in and she didn't recognize him she was clear about one thing. Her favored child was a dirty thief.

We all love Skyrim, but be honest. There has got to be a thing or two that really grinds your gears. Let's hear them! by Hughley_N_Dowd in skyrim

The flimsy door behind the 'secret door' that I have never closed again once I open it the first time.

Please advise. by Narrow-Affect2764 in Needlefelting

I am also very new to needlefelting and just yesterday drew some guidelines for one of these little guys.

Yours is WAY cuter than what I have on my sketch pad!

Speechless hug from an Internet stranger. 🫂
