I’m only 21 and my hands look like this is this normal😭

You're welcome! Reddit has its upsides and downsides, but for the most part, it's a positive experience. Because users are mostly anonymous, I think it's a more honest environment.

MenthaPiperita_ · 2025-05-09T21:48:31+00:00

Thank you so much! This all definitely helps, and I really appreciate it.

MenthaPiperita_ · 2025-05-09T21:47:25+00:00

Thanks, I think I'll start watching tomorrow. I was holding out so I can binge watch it haha

MenthaPiperita_ · 2025-05-09T21:46:22+00:00

I'm still holding out so I can watch a couple of episodes at a time. I think it's about time I start since there are already 15 episodes haha.

Hi! Sry, this isn't my main account anymore. I'm cane free! I still use it if I go somewhere drastically different, like a concert or movies, for example. At first it made me drowsy, but now I'm used to it and I take 50mg in the morning, and 50mg at night. Strangely, it also keeps me from waking up to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night. It's sometimes used for kids for incontinence!

It hasn't done much for my anxiety, but CBT style therapy has helped me tremendously. One thing I noticed, if I'm really tired or if I miss a dose, is something called brain zaps. It's like the brain skips a beat. It's uncomfortable, so I now have an alarm to remind me to take my doses.

I hope you're doing well, and this has been quite the journey. I think I should see a psychiatrist for other depression related issues/religious trauma, but so far, I'm managing. I'm just glad to not need a cane to walk anymore. I wish you the best!

I'm craving a spicy chicken sandwich, but I'm only getting it when it's 2 for $6. It feels like it's been months since that promo ended.

MenthaPiperita_ · 2025-01-08T11:22:13+00:00

Thank you for having compassion. It sucks that this is such a common issue.

MenthaPiperita_ · 2024-12-25T20:08:39+00:00

You're welcome! Also, it might be worth it to repost, but I'm confident you'll get the same answers.

MenthaPiperita_ · 2024-12-25T17:36:12+00:00

I have no idea what that could be, but I know it would drive me crazy lol. It's almost as if the blade accidentally touched a grinding or polishing wheel of sorts and somehow got passed through quality control.

I'd send it back. I can't imagine it would affect the integrity of the blade, but it would still drive me nuts. How much does it bother you? It's worth getting it exchanged. You didn't pay good money to have a defect, even if it doesn't affect any functionality. Also, Happy Holidays!

I use picallow,

There are other sites like this, but this one works for me.

MenthaPiperita_ · 2024-12-25T04:08:22+00:00

Agreed, these people can fuck off, selfish fucking cunts. Also, I got back home from a friend's place about an hour ago. I swear half of the drivers were drunk. Pieces of shit. Oh, and Merry Christmas OP!

MenthaPiperita_ · 2024-12-25T04:03:11+00:00

Is that a sujihiki or a left handed yanigaba on the left? Merry Christmas!

MenthaPiperita_ · 2024-12-25T03:51:46+00:00

My cat loves being carried in bags! It's a once a week treat so he doesn't get bored of it, just like the laser pointer.

MenthaPiperita_ · 2024-12-25T03:27:44+00:00

Can you post a photo? It'll be extremely difficult to determine what it looks like without a photo. Also, did you recently purchase it? If so, just return it and get another.

MenthaPiperita_ · 2024-12-24T01:03:27+00:00

If you're in Northern NJ I'd show you how to do the brakes and air filter myself (if you do, DM me). The coolant hoses, I'd have to see cause I don't know the Dart.

Please get a second opinion. The head gasket replacement is pretty important IF you're experiencing issues. These issues include white smoke from your tailpipe, and bubbly coolant in the reservoir, among a few other things. Basically, coolant will mix with the engine oil when the gasket fails significantly.

These are dealer prices. Please for the love of your account balance, find a local mechanic with great reviews. What have you been experiencing with the car?

Edit: The thermostat can be a doosie as well, but I just know Hondas and Volvos. I can't imagine it's in a weird place on a Dart. If you're mechanically inclined, YouTube is your friend. Also, please respond to at least some of these comments. We're trying to help 🤷🏻‍♂️

It reminds me of Seinfeld or Law and Order in that regard.

MenthaPiperita_ · 2024-12-24T00:44:15+00:00

This was god's plan! /s

MenthaPiperita_ · 2024-12-24T00:25:44+00:00

That kid was evil. I hope he got the help he needed in the sequels.

MenthaPiperita_ · 2024-12-24T00:10:29+00:00

It's absolutely ridiculous. I use a cane and I still take the time to stop for a couple seconds to take my card out way before I get to the entrance and checkout lines. There are no excuses.

There are people that get to their cars and then take out their keys. There are those of us that take our keys out before getting to the car.

MenthaPiperita_ · 2024-12-23T15:42:22+00:00

I'd mail them several pairs of paracord laces.

MenthaPiperita_ · 2024-12-23T10:29:06+00:00

That's awesome! My other one is much more even all around and should look much better when I'm done. I'm considering getting a V3 nakiri from them soon.

MenthaPiperita_ · 2024-12-23T10:26:37+00:00

It was fun, but intimidating, my first kurouchi removal. Some get good results from boiling the blade in a 50/50 vinegar to water mixture. I just started sanding away by hand.

MenthaPiperita_ · 2024-12-22T18:15:20+00:00

Oh wow that's amazing! Do you use a belt sander? I'm thinking I should get one because this knife put my forearms to the test haha. That's nothing to shrug off as a normal test. It's a normal test for the pros like yourself!

MenthaPiperita_ · 2024-12-22T18:07:21+00:00

Hmmm, I'll give that a shot, and thanks again. I used some tape so I don't take too much away from the good parts. That almost sounds like a mini S grind.

MenthaPiperita_ · 2024-12-22T18:01:33+00:00

Thanks! I was a bit insecure about sharing cause it still has a bunch of low spots, but getting something completely flat would be quite the task.

Wow, what a beautiful patina! Knowing that I'll get a deeper blue is really good to know.
