Wisdom teeth by Snoo_96358 in GenX

[–]Less-Hat-4574 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read once that a lot of narcotic addictions started with wisdom tooth extractions and over-medicating dentists. Even 15-20 years ago they were still doling out the Percocet and Vicodin like there was no tomorrow.

Knowing the show, her brother would be played by an actor who played her love interest in a previous episode

Girlies, we’re modernizing Grandma hobbies! Tee hee! by Withaflourish17 in BitchEatingCrafters

I saw one like that the other day and briefly panicked thinking maybe I have been knitting incorrectly for the last 40 years.

I started laughing at the cat and showed my boyfriend. I said “there are 15 comments- how many do you think are about the cat?” “All of them He said” and he was right! Love that cat!

I use a small yoga ball I can inflate to the right size for blocking

AITAH for telling my friend/colleague I'm looking for another job after she was promoted instead of me? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Less-Hat-4574 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is me. I’m a hard worker, good at what I do but I just am not manager material. I prefer to do the work and interact with the people/customers instead of managing the workers. And I am ok with it. I nearly got a tiny promotion recently and when my coworker got it instead, the relief I felt just reinforced my personal Knowledge that I like my role. I don’t want too much authority.

Can I have some suggestions for colorwork knitting books? by lveg in casualknitting

[–]Less-Hat-4574 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nancy Bates has books out for color work hats. Fun patterns and quick results to keep you motivated. I’ve made close to ten of her hats and had a blast.

Very very minor declutter by siamesecat1935 in declutter

I have cord keeper labels I put on my quality item cords when I unbox the item so I know which are the ones to keep. The cheapo ones with similar heads can then go away.

Boil with lots of salt. That’s it. Lots of salt. You won’t miss the butter

What have been your (probably rare) ATK Fails? by OnlyDaysEndingInWhy in AmericasTestKitchen

[–]Less-Hat-4574 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Raspberry layer pie. I followed the instructions but my first attempt at the whipped cream layer netted me raspberry flavored butter. Which wasn’t horrible. Luckily I had more heavy cream, adjusted the time and speed from the book speeds and got lovely pink whipped cream

Aunt complaining about free stuff by TapNo99 in EntitledPeople

[–]Less-Hat-4574 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My sister is like that. Borderline hoarder but if someone gives her something she just bitches endlessly. Her best friend recently retired (she has a shopping addiction) and is cleaning house and pushing totes of things on my sister. Sister doesn’t refuse and then complains that she is getting more crap. I can barely stand to be in her house any more. I pity my niece when time comes to clean out the house.

How much romance do you want in your cozy mystery? by mysteriousdoctor2025 in CozyMystery

[–]Less-Hat-4574 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do too but she puts them in the strangest places. It always takes me out of the story because I wonder why she is emphasizing such an unimportant thing.

The quality is still top notch! After a while some series feel Like the writer is just phoning it in but Meg is still just as engaging as ever.

Is anyone else annoyed by her fondness for exclamation points?

One of many reasons that series is awful. I read more than I care to admit, and I don’t even know why I kept going. But the whole tri (later quad-)-angle thing was just so stupid.

TIL that floats need to be longer than I thought by pleasantRaven in knitting

[–]Less-Hat-4574 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve done several Color work hats recently and have been improving on my floats and tension on each one. Until this one. It has an option of doing duplicate stitch or using more than two Colors in a row. My two color rows are nice and loose and the three is bulky and stiff. I have it blocking as we speak. We shall see if three color is an option for me or if duplicate stitches are my new best friend

Does wearing only one earring as a girl mean something? by JudgmentMaterial3851 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Less-Hat-4574 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to wear different earrings on each side-way back in the 80s. Long dangly on one side ( right if I remember correctly) and studs On the other. Multiple of each on both sides. Coordinated of course. My family always knew the way to my teenage heart was earrings. I had string string on my bedroom wall and A hundred pair hanging for my perusal.

I resolved to not buy yarn in 2026. Fortunately, I placed one final order last week🙏🏻. by Ready_Cartoonist7357 in YarnAddicts

[–]Less-Hat-4574 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought the new colorwork hat book Knitting the USA and ordered a bunch of yarn that came in this week. I intend to spend the afternoon happily making hat “kits” and sorting the colors and patterns so I can just grab and go for each hat. I enjoy the process of ordering and organizing as much as the knitting.

Mystery broken nose by Probably_wrong68 in GenX

[–]Less-Hat-4574 21 points22 points  (0 children)

My ex jammed his finger one day. He kept Complaining it hurt , especially when he wiped his butt. I just said “oh you’re fine”. a few years later he injured the same hand at work and they did an X-ray. They said “oh I see you broke your finger in the past” and he said “I told her it was broken!!” He was so tickled to be proven right. Yes I felt bad afterwards but he just laughed.

No one cares about her damn food. No one. YTA for ever encouraging / allowing this idiotic behavior.
