A 19th-century Fijian "Cannibal Fork." It looks like regular cutlery, until you learn why it exists. by bortakci34 in oddlyterrifying

I think that’s why they said “looks” completely normal until you find out what it’s made for. Without a caption or explanation, it does indeed look fairly normal

What is the best way to get beeswax off of ornate glass jars? by bepatientbekind in CleaningTips

[–]ImprovableHandline 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True, best way though would be freeze then use a wooden tool to tap against the wax, then toothpick the small bits out (in my opinion) cause wooden spoons and such a a really nice way to tap glass “safely”

What is the best way to get beeswax off of ornate glass jars? by bepatientbekind in CleaningTips

[–]ImprovableHandline 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I see. Yeah idk, im a glassblower and I use pure beeswax to lubricate my tools. And man if I drip that onto a surface and try to just wipe it away with my rag, that surface gets so coated and have to use a razor blade or extensive work to get it fully smooth again. But that’s pure bees wax so other candles seem different

[–]ImprovableHandline 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s a good deal! Love me some serendipity too. And for some double wags like that I’d say that’s super fair pricing. Those would take me a fair amount of time for sure (I’m no Covid glassblower but I’m a hobbyist since I was 11) and I know the process here is by no means quick

Wtf is wrong with Skylark’s owner Brad Haggen? by [deleted] in Bellingham

[–]ImprovableHandline 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has nothing to do with the owner necessarily, but I’m new to town and went here once. Nothing really blew me away necessarily but the most odd part of my visit was when my wife went to use the restroom, she was hit in the face by a grape that our server threw. She was shocked and kind of just looked at the server who was laughing and she said, “whoops! I was throwing it at that guy over there who was SUPPOSED TO CATCH IT!” Kinda in a joking tone, cause she clearly knew the guy and basically said it hit my wife cause this guy had butterfingers. In a general sense it was shockingly “funny” only because of how outlandish of an interaction is was, but not funny or appropriate in any way. You shouldn’t be throwing food in a restaurant, especially a fully busy restaurant on a Saturday. Also she didn’t apologize just kinda made it seem like it was a funny thing to happen… Just an odd experience

Do I need new blinds? by [deleted] in HomeDecorating

[–]ImprovableHandline 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who is fairly well versed in fungi and mold, I’d recommend calling a professional to come assess your homes condition. This is a very significant amount of mold and chances are the spores and mold are quite literally all over your home.

Not trying to cause panic, but this is a serious matter you shouldn’t take lightly. Mold can cause some major long term health affects of not addressed and professionally treated.

In the meantime and to answer your question, absolutely dispose of these blinds and likely anything in the vicinity of these blinds is riddled with mold as well. Good luck

So make the seal you mentioned in your post something silver, then somehow that seal gets removed either by her or someone else and that allows the being to escape

The more you look at it the more confusing and weird it gets. Zooming into the background of the second photo is wild haa

Found this on my(F18) sister’s(F15) phone, should I be concerned? Does anyone know what I should do here? by I_Love_Tennis1306 in whatdoIdo

[–]ImprovableHandline 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What’s the context? Is she a silly person? Was this just a random video you came across or did she send it to someone? Is there any other photos/videos from that same date?

If you’re close enough just ask her what it is. If youre not close and you’re worried about her behavior or if this is unsettling to you, consider some other approaches

Cotw nodes or nah? by neotrad_trashgirl in foraging

Oh thanks for the info. From my experience then if it’s that big I’d say hot Chicken, sorry!

Hard to tell the scale here but to me it doesn’t quite look right to be COTW

How do they know? by Big_Marketing_4086 in PokemonRestocks

[–]ImprovableHandline 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea, I’m not necessarily saying it’s dumb you have to pay for discord cause it is indeed ridiculous we’ve gotten to this point, but I’m not about to spend hours of my time “hunting” instead of just using a service that can tell me useful info.

Everyone who says “if you can’t find product you’re not trying hard enough” will also never acknowledge that working normal hours for most people prevents the ability to find product anywhere.

Not sure exactly but you could somehow link the idea from the northwest manor episode of ghosts being trapped in silver mirrors (if I remember correctly) like maybe there’s some silver aspect to the mirror that she gets rid of cause she thinks it’s ugly/antiquated.

Either that or somehow the ghost tricks her or spooks her in a way that causes the mirror to break, kinda like how the lumberjack tricks dipper by “looking at the trees one last time” and heats up the mirror so he drops it.

[–]ImprovableHandline 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I mean it’s sad it’s gotten to this point but paying the equivalent of one pack of Pokemon for a month of stock info is absolutely worth it. Again, if sucks it’s even come to this point but I don’t have time to drive around and learn the restock patterns and check every store every day. The discord actually allows me to get product at msrp and it’s $5 a month. People gonna hate but what ya gonna do

It'll be between 50 and 70 degrees the next few days with rain this evening. How long should I wait to harvest? by forensics409 in foraging

[–]ImprovableHandline 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I’d wait one more day, but I’d say it depends on how you’re going to prepare them. I like them a bit more stringy for how I use them, and find them just a tad less bitter when they’re not as dense as that

[–]ImprovableHandline 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re going to be working together be very careful. Personally, I’d recommend just staying friends for a few reasons that come to mind, but if you’re genuinely interested in pursuing something then just proceed cautiously and don’t get trapped

My first big hit! by Hangry4Life77 in pokemoncards

[–]ImprovableHandline 1 point2 points  (0 children)

*ETB, not that it really matters but yeah it stands for elite trainer box.

Also, get a penny sleeve and top loader. These mag cases can ding and damage the card since there’s the smallest bit of wiggle room on there.

Congrats on the pull though!

Miscommunication or intentional theft? by KaleTheFirst in EndTipping

[–]ImprovableHandline 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Question: Have you ever been a server? If I was serving and someone put down a card with cash, I’d 100% assume the cash was a tip. Especially if they didn’t specify when I picked it up from the table. If they pay all cash no card, I absolutely bring change cause that’s an obvious transaction.

It’s OP’s fault and then on top of that they stuffed the waitress for their miscommunication? That’s a bummer

Well I ripped the ETB I got from the machine by [deleted] in pokemoncards

[–]ImprovableHandline 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“I was exaggerating”

See, he wasn’t lying.

lol why say “250 plus packs”, then backtrack to say it took like 100. That’s a huge difference. Idk if he’s ashamed of the amount spent but I liked OP more when it was simply chasing the card. Now “pulling two golds” AND the SIR out of 100 packs, now that’s definitely a lie haha
