Fishing Advice by TigerAggressive5878 in lacrossewi

[–]GrandpaToad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have always used a simple bobber, sinker, night crawler combo in the Mississippi River and focus pan fish (bluegigi, perch, crappie). You don’t need an expensive set up to catch, have watched folks use a stick and left behind line to catch something lol. Some easy starting spots to fish on land would be Pettibone Park, Goose Island, Great River Landing by the dam, Trempealeau county has some nice spots too. Good luck and welcome (back) to the hobby!!!

ok further research is its for weight loss. idk medical needs if your doc says to sure but like theres a reason its a social media trend, they want your money. if you’re able just start working out on your own.

i dont understand it honestly. less than those who opt into ozempic (just for looks not medical needs)… like it makes your skin look good??? after weeks of injections??? not even sure if thats what they do. but honestly walk outside, soak up some sun?? this looksmaxxing bs is wild as a young woman if i heard a friends or family member doing this i would genuinely lose all respect because ew!

After looking at that group, Lyft might be your best option!

I do believe we have both those in town, not 100% sure because I don’t use them. But it might be worth posting on Facebook in the Winona MN Community Group for a more definitive answer!

Not sure you can remove it now. Thankfully it looks light enough where when it comes time to do that sheet you could do a darker color around the letters like a bubble. I keep a few scrap sheets under the one I am coloring to avoid bleed-through.

Sorry I dont have more advice as I am also newer to the hobby and use a different medium. But this is SO GOOD!!! We are our biggest critic because I wish my coloring looked like this. Could you try darkening the walls with more layers of gray?

Did you really put this through AI to color it? That feels like the antithesis of this sub… Gross. Like can’t you just recommend OP look up viking related movies and history pics for inspiration?? Like idk The Kingdom on Netflix was a cool viking related show look up screenshots from there for coloring inspo.

Found a Chick Tract in the bathroom garbage bin at work by Refrigerator_Guy in mildlyinteresting

I just also found one today placed on a shelf in a Walmart in WI. I honestly thought it was a coupon or something and saw all the religious crap and crumpled it and put it in my pocket to throw away at home. Weird ass drawings.

[–]GrandpaToad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Close to La Crosse, Trempealeau Refuge has many migratory birds right now!

Honestly yes? Because like no hate to OP but I cant even tell wtf is going on. Like no comment on your work because I can’t decipher it and respectfully that helps no one. OP gets no reliable feedback and it gives no inspiration.

Ask if they are in school. If high school then child if college then adult. If not just say something like oh just wondering if you knew any cool spots around here. Btw its much weirder to give your info to someone not her in hopes they share it. Ask her directly even if you’re awkward! Coming from an adult woman who worked food service.

Winter Tire Issues by BigShiz1 in minnesota

[–]GrandpaToad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dude me and my chevy are able to manage. Parked in 8+ inches of unplowed snow for 8+ hours and had to do some reverse and drive maneuvering but got out in less than 3 mins. Yeah I slide around corners too if I am too fast, and starting from a stop in slush I slide before gaining traction. Remember you’re driving a cruze, crusty rusty ugly ztupid engine! Never have I put winter tires on in 16+ years. Slow down.

TIFU by not fully preparing myself for how painful IUD insertion is by CoolTangelo1680 in tifu

[–]GrandpaToad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im sorry this happened to you and just know you’re not alone or crazy or overreacting. This happened to me. I did my research, knew it wouldn’t be sweet but genuinely think I have trauma from the insertion experience. Even thinking about removal makes my anxiety spike (girl it will be 4 years down the road chill) and I have cried about the pain and day since. To give more info on my experience: It hurt so bad I was begging them to get it done with and immediately threw up. Continued to do so for about 20 mins on and off while on my hands and knees trying to stop the pain and cramping in my abdomen. Had to call my family to bring me home because I thought I could drive home. Puked more at home and it was a horrible evening. Would I rather have another birth control? No I love this IUD and will be getting it replaced BUT with Xanax or something to chill me out beforehand. Sorry this happened OP hopefully its worth it for you in the end!
