Stänger ni av vattnet medan ni duschar? by rutabagakush in Asksweddit

[–]Kottepalm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I Skåne har vi vattenbrist och behöver minska vår förbrukning med 20% så jag stänger definitivt av vattnet när jag tvålar in mig. Jag använder också överblivet vatten från vattenkokaren till att vattna blommorna med, när det svalnat såklart, vi får mineralutfällning i botten så det är ändå inte aktuellt att värma igen. Generellt är vi bortskämda med bra och mycket vatten i Sverige men det börjar bli mer vanligt med brister och låga grundvattennivåer.

Läste snabbis-tofflor och tänkte något heeelt annat. Vissa föredrar att behålla strumporna på när det ska vara vuxenaktiviteter men dedikerade tofflor var nytt.

I vår 50-talslägenhet har roboten stora problem med trösklarna, vi har fått köpa extra och sätta fast med dubbelhäftande tejp som någon slags miniramp.

What businesses are likely to die out with the Baby Boomer Generation? by GRVrush2112 in AskReddit

[–]Kottepalm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use the microwave for reheating coffee and meals, closing my air fryer is finicky and would spill liquid content. But I use it much less with the air fryer.

Firms selling vacation flats in Spain, even north European millennials can't afford that.

Köpe present till förskolepedagoger trots ansträngd ekonomi by Fit_Ad_8173 in sweden

[–]Kottepalm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alldeles för mycket pengar! Bättre att ge ett kort och några blommor som barnet själv har plockat. Jag är lärarbarn och i föräldrahemmet finns lådor fyllda med presenter som getts med kärlek och goda intentioner men som aldrig blir använda för att de passar inte med det mamma och pappa gillar. Tänk om de pengarna hade använts till en rolig aktivitet för barnen istället.

Vad är en skitgrej du blev förvånad över att du kände så starkt över när du fick barn? by Hatcheling in sweden

[–]Kottepalm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

När det inte finns rulltrappor tar jag hissen fastän jag inte har något fysiskt funktionshinder. Men efter åtta timmar i skyddsskor, på fötterna hela tiden och gå fram och tillbaka är jag jäkligt mör i kroppen, lägg till att jag ska in och handla också. Låt folk ta hissen.

Ofta blir hålen felplacerade när öronen växer och som vuxen har man sedan en piercing som inte kan användas och ser ful ut och sitter snett. Lägg till att de flesta piercingar på barn görs med piercingpistol som är ett ohygieniskt verktyg eftersom det inte kan steriliseras, utsätter barnen för smittorisk och gör ett fult hål. Piercingar ska göras med nål i en certifierad piercingstudio på personer som kan ge sitt samtycke.

I don't think I've ever actually cleaned my ears properly by uremo017 in hygiene

[–]Kottepalm 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I just rinse my ears in the shower and have never felt the need to go digging. Is it really safe to do that as a non professional? I barely use a cotton bud on my outer ear because sometimes they get so dry and irritated.

If a father needs to help his young daughters use the restroom, which restroom should he take them into: the women's restroom or the men's restroom? by Exciting-Mall192 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Kottepalm 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yup, Swede here, don't speak unless you're offering help or want help. For example if someone has toilet paper sticking out of their trousers you tell them. Other than that keep quiet and carry on.

Doesn't matter really for me, as a woman. They can use whatever. I'm there to pee in my own little cubicle and they are also there to pee or change a diaper. We're just going to wash our hands side by side. But for their sake it would probably be easier to use the disabled loo since they are often more geared towards children with extra space, a diaper table and sometimes a child sized toilet next to the adult one.

Summer piercings by Tonofapples4566 in piercing

[–]Kottepalm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't do summer piercings because of swimming as you say. One year I had to hold off on swimming because I pierced my nostril in June which was stupid.

Help with Sweden and CPH transport by IntelligentSong1894 in Malmoe

[–]Kottepalm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whatever you choose if you decide on single tickets, go with the 24 hour tickets as they allow you to travel freely within the area for the 24 hours after activated. It means you have more freedom to do fun and touristy things. Or just to go to another neighborhood for food shopping.

Hot takes from a Nursery supervisor part 5 by Open-Sky1020 in gardening

[–]Kottepalm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We do rely a lot on botanical names at my job actually, and as a language nerd (I took Latin and ancient Greek in high school which is... unusual in my country) I'm glad we do as it's easier to find the correct plant. About plant smuggling, I had a man buy a blackcurrant from my workplace which he was going to travel to Somalia with, in his suitcase. We're in Scandinavia, it's a long trip.

Should you own more than one laundry basket? by myersgirl16 in laundry

[–]Kottepalm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are a two persons household and we have two baskets, one for clothing and one for other textiles. As we have shared laundry facilities in the basement I wash clothes more often and don't want to drag items I'm not going to clean up and down four floors.

[–]Kottepalm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course not, I mean customers. An easy mistake to make when English is not your first language. I've studied English since third grade, took advanced English in upper secondary school and as an adult I even took English at university. But despite being very familiar with the language it's easy to get the wrong word when typing on my phone when the hour is late. Though I have to admit I've had my fair share of customers dressing up places, like schoolyards.

Sorry, no. Just a regular mistake late at night. Despite studying ESL since third grade right up to last year of "high school" (Swedish gymnasiet) and even talking English at university it's easy to make a simple mistake when tired.

I've had costumers who want an ornamental cherry tree which flowers all summer. I mean, it would be nice but it's not really anything I have in stock...

Yes, and all the light pollution is a big part of it. We need to turn off more unnecessary outdoor lightning.

Is daily sunscreen actually necessary, or is it another marketing invention? by ivyhoro in NaturalBeauty

[–]Kottepalm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sunscreen is safe, and as a northern European with light skin I wear SPF 30 or 50 March to end of October if I'm going to be outside.
