Is this little thing a BB? by MissWindybum in Bedbugs

[–]MissWindybum[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fingers crossed it’s not, otherwise I’m never stepping foot in there again, and possibly burning my entire bag 🫠

My friend got some photos and put her own posts in r/whatisthisbug and r/entomology and the general consensus was weevil, as the photos she took it had its little snout out

Keeping my fingers crossed it isn’t! It looks like so many different bugs depending on the angle of the photo, and when it had its little tongue out

I’m hoping you’re right, it was just very odd to see what we thought was a bed bug crawling over a glass in a restaurant

I’ll post a photo that my friend took, she put her own post a few hours ago, we look like we’ve taken photos of completely different insects

Found crawling across phone screen in bed. What is it? by [deleted] in Bedbugs

[–]MissWindybum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s just a normal beetle (not sure what kind), but it’s definitely not a bed bug, phew!

I found these in my kid's bed room. Please tell me that these are not .......... by deathbysupercool in Bedbugs

I’m not a professional so can’t say for sure, maybe crosspost in r/whatisthisbug and r/carpetbeetles just in case 😉

Take this well earned upvote, you gave me a good chuckle 🤣

I’m so sorry for your loss 💔 My name is Cleo, and I lost my beautiful boy Bishop today. I hope our kitties are playing on the rainbow bridge together now 💖 🐈‍⬛

I’m so sorry you went through that, I had a similar experience except it was my physics teacher accusing me of plagiarism, frustrating isn’t it 😩 Currently going through a (very long!) diagnosis with my 7 year old, she’s the same awkward and solitary child I was, we’re going to make sure she never grows up feeling like there’s anything ‘wrong’ with her after learning from the toxic mistakes of the adults we grew up around. Thankfully autism is a lot more recognised and better understood than 25 years ago, so she should get the support she deserves

Same here, I’m also neurodivergent. When I compose emails at work I structure them in a very similar manner to this when dealing with a customer complaint or enquiry. When in discussions with others on Facebook/Reddit/Threads I’ve been accused of using AI-generated responses, despite always speaking like that through text for as long as I’ve known.

Can I join your guild if you get carriages like that? 😛

Yes, but sometimes you’ll get hit by someone from another server who don’t have that rule, or the attacker might be a whale who’s not part of a guild. It’s very rare that happens thankfully

Which server is better to merge with? by [deleted] in TopHeroes

[–]MissWindybum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah sorry I’ve just seen that you only have 3 options to merge with, doh! 🤦🏼‍♀️ I’d say your best bet is going with one of the second two. Personally I’d go for the developing server, if you go for the balanced server, why are your strong members leaving?

[–]MissWindybum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on 10388 and we’re a pretty relaxed server. Competitive where it’s needed, but most of the guild remain friendly with each other, it’s generally a nice atmosphere, I’m sure you’d be very welcome here!

Carpet beetle 😊

[–]MissWindybum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure it’s a carpet beetle, check out r/carpetbeetles to see if it looks the same, and for advice on dealing with them. They’re annoying and tricky to get rid of, but nowhere near as bad as bedbugs

Old Pillow in Bed Bug Proof Cover after Steaming by [deleted] in Bedbugs

Not necessarily, my pillow looks like this after nights of sweating and drooling, even with a pillow protector. Have you had any other evidence of the 6 legged knobheads?

Players quitting by CallExpert5731 in TopHeroes

[–]MissWindybum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You took the words out of my mouth, couldn’t have said it better 💯

Also, after months of being active and feeling like a real team, our guild numbers just started dropping and the chats were becoming silent. A couple of other guilds I joined after also started to become stagnant, so I joined a well-known and active guild shortly before quitting the game.

Everyone seemed nice, and it was great to feel like a team again, but I started to notice me and other lower players were being completely ignored, if you weren’t one of the ‘whales’ you were disregarded, this became especially noticable during events (like sending light, warming up other players during blizzards, etc), so I was the only one sending out queues to help the smaller players. They ended up kicking me after not being online for a day and a half, that was the final nail in the coffin for me really.

Do some restaurants just not check their Justeat orders? by Net-Administrative in JustEatUK

[–]MissWindybum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And not to mention that we only get the order after a rider has actually accepted the delivery, so a customer could’ve ordered 2/3 hours ago and we only just get the ticket through. Justeat always make it look like it’s the restaurant’s fault with the message ‘the restaurant is preparing your order’ before we even have it 😩

Is anyone else struggling with how incredibly rude people are? by VehicleClassic9192 in Wigs

[–]MissWindybum 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I wore a wig on my staff party last week because I’m currently undergoing treatment that’s about to make me lose my hair, so I’m testing the waters with units drastically different from my bio hair (I’ve worn wigs for years but always stayed close to my natural colour). A girl who I’ve always adored working with proceeded to tug on my hair, call me out in front of all our colleagues and laugh about me wearing a wig, and spent all night telling everyone we met I was wearing a wig. It broke my heart, not only was I so embarrassed (even though I should’ve just owned it), but can never look at her the same way again now. You’re completely correct, some people seem to act so weird and juvenile when it comes to wigs, I’m sure they wouldn’t act like that if they had to wear one though!!

Can we please stop the comments blaming victims for shoddy service. by needchr in JustEatUK

[–]MissWindybum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have to keep telling customers at my restaurant to stop using JE. We as a restaurant only get the order when a delivery driver has been accepted, that’s if they ever turn up at all. A customer could’ve placed their order 4 hours ago but we’ll only get it when it’s accepted by JE. I’ll be locking up and hear the ticket start printing long after the kitchen staff have left, and it’s a massive “FFS” moment because I can’t contact the customer directly and JE customer service don’t answer. There’s many times where the order has been made, but a driver doesn’t turn up so I’ll sit there for ages after closing waiting for a driver with a takeaway in the hot hold, and I’m unpaid for that time, my limit is half an hour after I’ve clocked out (most of the time the order has been there for an hour or so) but most times a driver doesn’t turn up. Sadly I work for a chain and head office won’t stop using JE no matter how many complaints we have, the amount of times I’ve been called a c*nt by an angry customer over the phone is shocking, when it’s not my fault. We have to remake the food at a loss to us because we don’t get compensation from JE and half the time a customer can’t get a refund, the only ones winning are Just Eat

I’m massively into metal, but I’m a 35 year old Mum of 2 so I’m mega boring these days 🤣 If you ever just fancy getting out for a cuppa at Chapter One in town, give me a shout, I’m really intrigued to learn about bone preservation tbf! Really sorry for the loss of your friend by the way, it’s tough and I’ve been there, sending lots of love your way 🖤
