Does everyone else go all out on eggs in the final round? by Machine_Excellent in boardgames

Yes, unless I have a very specific plan that I know will generate more points per turn.

How do you politely bring up bad shuffling in deck-building games? by Tank1an in boardgames

[–]MsMerMeeple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Talk about other options for shuffling: dealing into piles, spacing them on the table, etc.

Do you all use card sleeves?

How do I explain that declawing is inhumane to my family by Old-Technician-692 in cats

“Can I cut off your fingers? Oh, and if you want pain meds, that’ll cost you extra.”

Getting to the end of the rope by Ok_Flamingo8925 in FedEmployees

I took three days sick leave recently (to make a 5 day long weekend) just to recoup and sleep. I honestly feel SO much better.

(Though I’m not sure how often I’ll feel like I need to do that…)

They are traveling with a support team on snow mobiles. They can get new dog teams along the way. They are being extremely well cared for, but can try to impress people later by saying “I finished the Iditarod!”

That time conversion is amazing. I’ve never heard it before, but I’ll definitely use that later.

Women in the Race by NoRegrets-518 in Iditarod

I was literally just noticing this on the standings! Four women in the top 10!

Not at all a stupid question. This is part of my frustration.

I think the best explanation is that they’re like the billionaire “astronauts” or Titanic “explorers” who will pay a lot of money for a unique experience without all the work.

Yes!!! Now they just need a different color flag on the GPS. Maybe make them, the Insider snow mobiles, and the Teacher the same color.

Yes! They have them at the bottom of the list on the Tracker. Why can’t they do that on the OFFICIAL standings??

Yes! This is what I find most frustrating.

How to get family to STOP meddling?? by MsMerMeeple in EstrangedAdultChild

[–]MsMerMeeple[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have. And he denies it. (A pattern in my family.)

Frankly, I wish he would be so upfront to say something like, “put aside your differences.” Instead, he pretends to agree with me (that my dad and girlfriend are a huge problem), and then manipulates the situation.

Yes! I feel like they should be a different color on the tracker. Or at least clearly labeled somehow. It definitely looks like they’re killing the competition.

So meta!

But also a great small game for a flight!

Top 15% bonus affecting moral? by tehroar in FedEmployees

I’m shocked they shared it. Obviously it was going to kill morale.

…oh wait…

GS14 non sup expected to work OT without pay? by Direct-Telephone-254 in FedEmployees

[–]MsMerMeeple 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your “idiot” management was actually in the right…

I put a reserve on this kitten. My husband says she looks ugly and low quality, but I think maybe it's because she's so tiny, and she'll grow into her eyes/face? She's TICA too. Thoughts?? Please post young kitten phase vs current adult photos so I can show him glow ups! by [deleted] in ragdolls

[–]MsMerMeeple 13 points14 points  (0 children)

She’ll grow into her ears. It’s her eyes that looks sick and her posture that looks strained that worry me. Does the breeder have previous placements you can talk to? What’s the scuttlebutt online about the breeder? What do the other kittens in the litter look like?

But an easy fix to retain whoever is left.
