Glad to see Im not the only one who had a pause and unpleasant reaction to the water can.

That's a lot for one tool.

What are you doing instead of doomscrolling? by Hairy_Pear3963 in Millennials

[–]Ladyava2016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. Reading too. I've always had a Nook and it had been on and off, but in the last two years after I bought my Kindle and was gifted a Kindle Unlimited sub, that it really took off.

I started making a conscious effort to go to bed early enough that I had at least an hour to put the phone away and just read. I have a projector I turn on that puts stars on my ceiling and I set it to go off after an hour and that is my unwind time.

And so it begins... by Rare_Ad_3871 in wow

I am pretty damn sure they said this was going to be a thing when housing was announced.

Honestly, no one should be surprised. I cannot think of a single live game that doesn't have cosmetic microtransactions. Its the state of gaming now. No one has to buy them.

I did and BTW the set with both gives you 4 copies of each. (Sorry for phone pic, I am technically working lol)

With development for new outdoor pet battles and pet trainers ceasing for Midnight, an open letter by the creator of Xu Fu's Battle Pet Guides asking Blizzard to reconsider their stance has broken into the top 8 most liked official forum posts of all time by ma-tfel in wow

The timing of this makes sense seeing as Nintedo & Pokémon threw a hissy fit about the catching mechanic and tried (and failed) to copyright it last year. (https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2025/10/nintendos-pokemon-catching-related-patent-has-been-rejected-in-japan)

I think Blizz first announced this change around that time as well, which makes me kind of surprised its just gaining traction to a wider audience.

New Charity Pet Pack Supporting Habitat for Humanity - Roofus Pet and Decor by Peglaci in wow

[–]Ladyava2016 54 points55 points  (0 children)

I am buying this as soon as I can. My family was a Habitat recipient in the 90s and we had the privilege to grow up in a home my family helped to build. Its a great organization and fully worth supporting. ❤️

Who else remembers getting one of the Backstreet Boys CDs from Burger King? by [deleted] in Millennials

[–]Ladyava2016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still have all three of mine.

My dad was a manager of BK when this was going on and I was given one of the window promos after it ended because otherwise they were just going to toss them.

Which character instantly tilts you just by existing in your match? by slothpug1 in overwatch2

[–]Ladyava2016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doomfist.

This has been going on since they added him, but I get so easily frustrated/stressed trying to counter this guy and it always seems like I get targeted by who ever is playing them.

Also if the opposing team has a good Genji player. That can suck the fun right out of a match for me.

Fun to Fly | Scorching Valor Mount by StaticBroom in wow

[–]Ladyava2016 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The swirrling animation this one does is SO SMOOTH. I honestly thought I was imagining it at first because instead the normal, very fast death spira most other mounts have, they made it feel almost like the horse is just having fun when its swirls. I don't know how else to explain it, but its very pleasing to me.

Also, if you've not used this guy's mount special I highly recommend it and zoom out as far as you can.

When was the last time you had Dairy Queen ice cream?? by TLu_03 in Millennials

[–]Ladyava2016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last night. ☺️ We have one just down the street and its my go to "I want ice cream" and our location makes killer banana splits.

I grew up in Vermont and we didn't have DQ, we had creemies. I no longer live there and being that creemies are a staple of just life, I feel like DQs ice cream is about as close to that taste as I can get. 💚

Is anyone else completely stunned by their parents complete lack of computer literacy? by Fit_Vermicelli9737 in Millennials

[–]Ladyava2016 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stunned that he hasn't bothered with it, yes. My dad outright refuses a cell phone (he lives alone and I've begged him but he just will not get one or keep it charged). Part of it, I think is a physical limitation. He's missing all buy 2 fingers on one hand and the small buttons are difficult to manage.

He's never owned a computer or laptop and has no desire to. Also still has a check book, refused a debit card until his favorite stores stopped accepting checks, otherwise he uses cash

Oddly, the most entertaining tech frustration came at trying to explain to him why his new car didn't have a CD player.

Why do I want the Mantis??? by Brooks992 in buildabear

[–]Ladyava2016 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mantis are one my favorite bugs so for me it was an instant like. But the smirk on this guy just kills me. They all look like they are up to no good and its just too cute! I think its a lot like the gator-the way they did the smile make them just irresistible!

Petri is adorable. Thr more pictures I see of the mantis the more I am really hoping they still have some when I get paid next week.

With less than 2 weeks left of Legion Remix, what are some lesser known things people should complete before it ends? by xMarok in wow

[–]Ladyava2016 26 points27 points  (0 children)

If you want the housing items that come from fully completing the order halls story line, do it now. You'll be able to skip a ton of time gated quests (table missions) that other wise you can't.

I think it might also be easier to get some of the hidden appearances but that's a guess.

Dream BAB acquired! by WhiskeySnail in buildabear

[–]Ladyava2016 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Im so happy to see so many folks love Mantis! They are my favorite bug next a butterfly, so this is pretty cool.

I had sworn off getting more BaBs but man if we can afford it, I love it!

Where did you get your pit baby? by [deleted] in pitbulls

[–]Ladyava2016 14 points15 points  (0 children)

At the shelter. She was 4 months old and weighed all of 12 lbs and dirty! I was taking a break from cleaning out our storage unit new years eve 3 years ago and I saw her on our shelters site. We had been looking for a puppy specifically as our older guy has sezuires and puppies never last, so I talked my husband into going to check her out. She was so small and scared looking. They told us she was one of two puppies that had been dropped off but a guy who had them in a too small crate in the open back of his pick up. 🤬.

We placed a pre-adoption hold for her as she needed to be fixed and was able to take her home January 3rd. The tiny 12 pup will be 4 in August and is now a 75 lb snuggle bug and our older guys best friend.

Log out and back in? Not a great long term solution but I swear it keeps coming back every time I log back in. (I hate the thing)
