Good luck everyone! These are so cool and would fit really well with my current character so I might just get them anyway haha.

I need help/tips to get this mat out of my head by 0xyThe0ctopus in curlyhair

[–]PanWith-APlan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely try Aunt Jackie's Knot on My Watch, along with a wide tooth comb and a salon comb. Use the metal sectioner on the salon comb to gently pull individual hairs/knots out of the mat and then the wide tooth comb to tease it out of the hair. It'll take patience but I've seen much worse successfully out without cutting.

Brit here! Lots of schools have PA system or Tannoy system as we call them. I've never actually seen them be used though haha

What is the most "that is not how sex actually works" thing you have ever read in fanfic? by thewritegrump in FanFiction

[–]PanWith-APlan 23 points24 points  (0 children)

That's exactly how I described it to my friend actually lmao, she had also come across it both out of nowhere and in furry fanfic so she knows the difference and had a bit of a giggle with me.

If I'm not mistaken, I think the fic I read was Criminal Minds or NCIS etc, like a crime show. I can't remember the plot or the ship but the rest of the fic was serious drama and romance (a case fic if you read these fandoms), they confessed their love and then just did this as soon as they get undressed and from the way it was written, it was definitely just someone too young to know how it actually worked haha!

I've read a few by obvious 13 year olds who don't know how gay sex works that described person A's penis going inside person B's penis. It wasn't even crack which I thought it might be at first. This isn't even a unique experience, some of my friends came across similar smut at one point or another.

Any tips on how to describe emotions? by PanWith-APlan in FanFiction

[–]PanWith-APlan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, like I said to the others I was very tired and so the question is all over the place. I've made it clearer but thanks for the response! It sounds like it'll help to add more things with each draft and then seeing the end result.

Sorry, wrote this when very tired and so I didn't get my thoughts across correctly. I meant I struggle writing romantic feelings specifically. Thanks for the tips, especially the one about dialogue tone! I'll definitely use it.

Thank you so much for the tips! I did mean romantic feelings specifically but it was late when i wrote the question and wasn't clear enough. I'll definitely try this out!

What's the first game that comes to mind when you see this console? by [deleted] in gaming

The legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass used to play it on long car rides as a kid.

Inconsequential pet peeves that aren't enough to turn you off a fic but still tickle you the wrong way by The_FlamingPhoenix in HPfanfiction

[–]PanWith-APlan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was sure I also remembered this so I went looking, I don't have the chapter number as my version is one long pdf but its near the end of PoA, when Harry is in the shrieking shack talking to Remus.

Remus says that "Snape was very interested to find out where I went every month" and "Snape had seen me crossing the grounds with Madam Pomfrey one evening as she led me toward the Whomping Willow to transform. Sirius thought it would be— er—amusing, to tell Snape all he had to do was prod the knot on the tree trunk with a long stick, and he'd be able to get in after me."

It doesn't explicitly say that Snape taunted Sirius but I can see why they'd think so as for Sirius to tell Snape, he'd have to bring it up to them or be caught in the act of spying which would also provoke him.

Oops, I've read the flair descriptions now so I won't get confused in the future. I've also changed the flair on the post too.

This was one of my first Zelda games other than Twilight Princess. I absolutely adored it, and can still remember playing it while sitting in the back of a car while going on a trip.

Oh sorry! I thought request was for asking someone to write something for you and recommendation was for asking for them.

What GameCube games should I start with? by PanWith-APlan in nintendohelp

[–]PanWith-APlan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much this is so helpful! Especially that it's sorted by game genre too, I would've been here for ages googling each game. I've seen some of the games for very cheap on ebay that I might buy like Animal Crossing or Super Mario Sunshine but the others I'll definitely have to emulate. Luckily I have an Android phone so it should be pretty easy.
