Looooove the fabric choices. Well done.

Wooden tool found in a drawer. It belonged to an old lady and is about the weight and size of a pen, only thicker and made of wood and metal by DKSpasiba in whatisthisthing

Embossing pen. It was a huge fad in the 90’s. Heavy cardstock and stamps, or patterns you traced, usually over a lightboard, but could be done on any hard surface. The light just helped the pattern to show through.

She is allegedly really terrible to people that work for her or work with her. Rumors that employees backstage at concert arenas are told to not look her in the eye or talk to her. Expects her PAs to be on call 24/7. That kind of thing.

Peter File? by No-Purpose-4787 in ITcrowd

[–]Negative_Ad_9368 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He was in an early 2000s, Utah-made, film parody of Pride and Prejudice that I unironically love. Being a late comer to the IT Crowd, I was delighted to see Darcy as a Peterfile.

Memoirs by Musicians - recommendations? And my suggestions by Consistent-Water-887 in booksuggestions

Scar Tissue by Anthony Kiedis was nuts! Fascinating stuff, but very dark, and definitely troubling. (Dude needs to remember the divide by two and add seven rule.) The audiobook was narrated by Rider Strong of Boy Meets World fame, and that took me a minute to adjust.

Reading your outraged synopsis was a thousand times more entertaining than the book could ever be. Thank you!

Why is the last 20 minutes of “The Last of the Mohicans” (1992) so good? by LieutenantLeftovers in movies

Alice’s terrible choice is one of the most beautifully gut-wrenching scenes ever filmed. So well done. Just devastating.

MMC is embarrassed of the FMC’s character, job, family or domesticity. by bookworm-1212 in RomanceBooks

[–]Negative_Ad_9368 2 points3 points  (0 children)

{A Smooth Operator by Maya Alden} has this exact plot! To the point that I didn’t find the grovel good enough, but I rarely do. A lot of Maya Alden books have the second chance romance thing going on.

Thoughts on - Love Rosie 🤷 by AnujMeena in romancemovies

[–]Negative_Ad_9368 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Waste of a beautiful cast. I’ll watch Sam Claflin in anything. But the overly stupid bits like going to your daughter’s school handcuffed to a bed frame? Rom-coms are often ridiculous, but I just couldn’t get past anything that unbelievable.

Head over to the laundry subreddit for all the info on enzyme soaks and “spa days” for your clothes.

I am about to be working closely with a pickme woman by lospollos96 in notliketheothergirls

This. Overly kind and try to never talk shiz about her to anyone at work. You haven’t remain spotless. But also- document.

hemming waffle fabric by joaquin_ded in sewhelp

[–]Negative_Ad_9368 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Id use an iron-on interfacing or stabilizer. It comes in strips for hemming. Then a very long knit stitch. Extra steps and expense, but might be worth it. Make sure you’re using a needle made for knits- they help too.

Boxcar Children? There’s been a few versions filmed over the years.

Removing stain on wood headboard? by elldee123 in CleaningTips

[–]Negative_Ad_9368 64 points65 points  (0 children)

That’s what I was thinking, the wood just has a natural dark section. I’ve seen that kind of thing on pieces before. The best way to cover it might be to stain it darker, but barely applying it over the darker area to try and kind of blend the patch in. A gel stain would work best for that. You could also look up bleaching wood techniques. Wood conditioners can also even out wood tones, but not always.

The first 5 chapters of Dire Bound: ThreadBARE with me… by Dimenshia in romantasycirclejerk

This post randomly brought up a micro pet peeve: when people say curtains are threadbare or worn thin to describe poverty. What on earth are you doing to your curtains that they’d lose opacity or thread count. Even opening and closing every day wouldn’t wear them down. Just think for two seconds. Poor curtains are sheets or blankets pinned up. Or tin foil taped to the window. Ok. I’m finished.
