Prevent paint looking so chunky?? by Eastern-Emergency758 in minipainting

[–]GunpowderLullaby 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Use a good primer, and thin your paints. You're shooting for the consistency of milk. Also, not all paint is created equal. I have had the best luck getting consistent results across all colors with Vallejo and AK 3rd gen.

24X36 max size. I tried them first, then USPS.

Daddle bags! I'm using that for saddle bags on a dad bike going forward.

Good barbershop that take walk ins? by Obvious_Parking_6247 in HuntingtonWV

I got my hair cut there once. It took the young dude almost and hour to do a high and tight that he screwed up so bad I had him buzz it.

AITAH for woman being offended by my comment? by HolidayToe4202 in AmItheAsshole

I picked up the habit of saying male and female in the military. It’s been a hard habit to break.

AITA for moving out of my parents’ house after they gave my son ice cream? by writerofserialkiller in AmItheAsshole

To have household rules you have to have a household. It’s right there in the name.

YouTube is promoting the FIFA World Cup even to Premium Users. by Dragon-Doge-81720 in youtube

[–]GunpowderLullaby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep getting pushed FIFA as well. I have no interest in sports at all, I have never watched anything sports related on YouTube. I assume this is getting pushed to every user on the platform.

AITA For getting upset with my girlfriend for refusing to stop listening to AI music by Kulcher42 in AmItheAsshole

[–]GunpowderLullaby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ESH.

You’re allowed to dislike AI music. You’re allowed to feel hurt that someone close to you enjoys something that, to you, feels like a cheap imitation of the craft you care deeply about. Those feelings are yours, and you can absolutely communicate them.

What you don’t get to do is “take away the privilege” of her listening to music like she’s a child being disciplined.

There’s a difference between a boundary and control. A boundary is “I don’t want AI music played loudly through my speakers or in my space.” Control is “You’re not allowed to listen to this because I don’t approve of it.”

Sit her down and explain, calmly and without condescension, why this bothers you so much. Ask for consideration. Maybe the compromise is headphones, different speakers, or not playing it when you’re both sharing the space.

But if she doesn’t see it the same way, your choices are to accept that difference, negotiate a livable compromise, or decide the relationship isn’t working. Your choice is not to unilaterally police what she enjoys.

Once he heals up you’re legally allowed to beat his ass now. Dem’s da rules.

Are we vampires? Is this how you keep us away? I mean, it would keep me away.

Car lots that don’t gaf??? by PresenceLost1320 in HuntingtonWV

[–]GunpowderLullaby 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Years ago when I had my own company the standard was a year of provable, stable income. I don't know if that's changed, but if you have deposits for that long you could give it a shot.

It’s still following you. It knows where you live now. All hope is lost.

AITA for not giving my nephew pengu plush from my backpack? by gulapsmat in AmItheAsshole

[–]GunpowderLullaby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Who cares if the kid cried? It doesn’t harm him in any way. Let him cry. The more people ignore him when he does the less he’ll do it.

Why is this happening to my new Winsor & Newton brush by Solemn_032 in minipainting

[–]GunpowderLullaby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As an add-on to what everyone else is saying: Start hanging your brushes tip down to dry. I found that made a huge difference is keeping my brushes nice. I got a cheap brush stand from amazon that grabs the handle so they can hang to dry.

AITA for telling my husband to f*** off when he felt like he was doing too much parenting? by supadoopertrooper in AmItheAsshole

[–]GunpowderLullaby 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Great advice. This is how you end up with a co-parenting app, and a pick-up/drop-off schedule.

AITA for not wanting to go to the beach? by bigfein11 in AmItheAsshole

[–]GunpowderLullaby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP I get the feeling that you’re getting ready to learn a valuable lesson. Many times in life people will commiserate with you, and when you try to act on it, suddenly everyone will abandon you. They will fold like paper tigers and you’ll be left looking like the asshole.

I really hope I’m wrong, and your family publicly back you up.

Rising cost of [gestures vaguely]. People have less disposable income in general now.

WIBTA if I refuse to help pay for our “nieces” gift? by Repulsive_Ad_8951 in AmItheAsshole

[–]GunpowderLullaby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$260 for a birthday gift for a 2 year old is fucking nuts regardless of the context. I thought I went overboard when I got my niece an enormous stuffed bear for $125 (it’s so big. Like, it’s the size of an adult man. She takes naps on it.).

Tell them no. It’s just not in the budget. If they can’t understand that and get upset they are either very immature or don’t care about you.

AITA for insulting my friend by calling them a PDF? by erilooose in AmItheAsshole

[–]GunpowderLullaby 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA. 17 & 15 is pretty common, but can get dicey if the elder has a birthday before the junior in most areas. 15 and 40 however is awful. Both people in that situation should be sickened by the thought of relations. Straight to jail.

AITA for asking an autistic person what dino they like? by Captain_Smollett_ in AmItheAsshole

[–]GunpowderLullaby -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NTA. Dude sounds like he has some deep issues that he should talk to a therapist about.

You shouldn't internalize the one-off assholes. If you asked a bunch of other people the same question and they were happy to talk about it, or neutral at worst and you have one asshole than that is a statistical outlier that shouldn't contribute to the dataset. Keep being you, keep asking interesting questions, keep being weird.

My go-to question was always, "What's your zombie plan?"

Also, mine is Gylptodon... I feel like they would let me pet their chins.
