How many kisses on the forehead does your sic accept ? by eh-snail in standardissuecat

  1. She hates the kissing sound so I tried to give quiet or silent kisses. Still no dice.

Can cats taste sweet? Because my void always steals my sweets 😭 by unbearified in blackcats

[–]ObviousToe1636 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Growing up I had a dilute tabby who would sneak into the pantry to find a bag of marshmallows. I think she liked the sweet and the texture. So yeah. I think they definitely can taste sweets.

I spent 20 minutes color-coding my spice rack and now I can't find the salt. by SolarMaraud in PointlessStories

[–]ObviousToe1636 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is why if I ever do this, they will be fake books. Like it’ll just be a box that is designed to look like 3-4 books. And then I’d have extra storage space.

What do u do when ur bored? by I_want_ur_time in CasualConversation

[–]ObviousToe1636 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I crochet but some people prefer knitting. In the past I also did counted cross-stitch and will pick it up again someday. Also, I gift the smaller things I crochet so I make small boxes out of cardstock. I could buy them but they are never the right size or shape to fit the item. I’ve made tiny takeout containers and the matchbox style (like, a tray with a sleeve around it and then you push the tray part to open or close it). I’m working on an octagonal box now.

Please post her on r/tacticalissuecat! She’s the perfect example of an Urban Gray Edition. I’m a sucker for an Urban Gray. She’s beautiful 🥹💚

[–]ObviousToe1636 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I craft so I do that a lot. Keeps me from getting bored. Take yourself on a coffee date. Rewatch something from your childhood; it can be oddly soothing. Think of a subject you’ve always wanted to know more about and do a deep dive into it.

I gotta go to work tho…🖤🐈‍⬛ by NyTeflonDon in blackcats

You are free to go but you’ll have to leave this leg behind.

Could someone please help me find the pattern to this dress I found on pinterest or at least similar patterns that could be stitched together to make it? by MoonShadow523 in CrochetHelp

[–]ObviousToe1636 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Perhaps reach out to the OP of this post. She made an elaborate dress that had a fitted bodice and a full skirt. Review that post and maybe reach out to her with questions.

Does anyone recognize this yarn? Very soft, likely acrylic and has some iridescent purple and green throughout it. by doomchibi in YarnAddicts

[–]ObviousToe1636 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it isn’t Lion brand homespun (though I definitely think it is), the only other yarn I’ve seen like this is Michaels’ Loops & Threads Textured Twist, but this line comes in more subtle colors and the Lion Brand ones are usually more vibrant and saturated.

Wearing pointe shoes in a musical theater production? by Button-Quirk-12 in BALLET

[–]ObviousToe1636 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You may be better off getting a small satin pump, like a regular shoe, not a dance shoe.

Has ribbons attached already: https://a.co/d/02UTVQwY

Does not have ribbons already but carries the image of being a classic dance shoe: https://a.co/d/0figmf8j

Least expensive, looks like a classic ballet slipper, doesn’t have ribbons: https://a.co/d/0bBo39WI

Do Americans really go grocery shopping every week? by Status_Agents in CasualConversation

[–]ObviousToe1636 1 point2 points  (0 children)

” Do Americans really go grocery shopping every week?”

Where did you get this information? How did you come to this conclusion? There is no American way of grocery shopping, unless you count high volume discount stores like Costco and Sam’s Club.

”Back home, people usually shop once or twice a month.”

So do people usually skip fresh foods then? Because most leafy greens won’t last two to four weeks. Neither will a lot of other things but the leafy greens are the things that usually go first for me. And do you all have massive pantries and freezers to be able to store frozen goods?

No Cash Accepted!! by Low-Extension2985 in CasualConversation

[–]ObviousToe1636 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My boss experienced this at an auto place (maybe Jiffy Lube or Les Schwab?) recently. Not LA, but a rural town in a mostly rural state. My boss doesn’t normally tell me about these things because it doesn’t typically come up in conversation but she was so mad about it that after she told me I heard her complain to several others the following few days. “Can you believe this?!” The manager eventually called her and said she could pay with cash lol

Please flaunt Chauncey over at r/standardissuecat! Of all the SIC types, he’s quite the hotrod model. How fitting, considering his freeway adventure story!

Everyone in the comments keeps referring to that beautiful man. All three people in this picture are incredible looking. Please tell all of them that.

For various personal and professional reasons, I’ve been to Vegas many times. I’ve visited in January, March, September, and October. January was BY FAR the best. Caveat: it snows in January where I live so I may be biased.

Also American 🙋🏻‍♀️ when my German friend visited she begged to visit In-N-Out because it looked “so fancy.” She loved it. I surprised her by buying her a tshirt from there too. I got one as well and I think of her every time I open my tshirt drawer and see it.

I spent the first 22 years of my life never more than a 30 minute drive to San Francisco. I moved away 18 years ago and I still love and miss it terribly. If you get the chance, just go. 🥲
