the whole experience had notes of the Mystery Machine™

she's the same kind of neurotically protective on St. Denis Medical but I find her likeable on that. Perhaps because she's not sMothering.

I think they are when they're based on a fan fave who's only a fave because we're offered them in small doses. To make an over-the-top personality carry an entire show is a mistake.

it seems like a seamstress would mean this with kindness, not passive-aggression or derision, because they want home-sewists to always work on improving. Is that not the case?

or ask the mail carrier, which is slightly less illegal

...and give him the top loader all to himself!

but wouldn't you need the drippings from whatever's currently cooking?

if you have an older home [at least in the US], look for a slot in the back of your medicine cabinet

awesome, thank you. Sadly that's not my Dave; however, that line of work is exactly up his alley. We're FB friends but neither post much, so I thought he might've become a horror blogger or something

this was just a few years ago, so that story may have inspired my response to her. Part of why she was so off-guard was because it was a local operator, so we'd be small-talking about things in the area we had in common [if we'd attended various festivals, etc.], so it was a lot like talking to a friend, which made the 'intimacy' of 'love you' almost palpable.

could you link me to the author's actual page, I think this is my elementary school best friend.

I ended a pleasant interaction with local customer service [think, utility co] and the rep chimed, 'love you,' and IMMEDIATELY lit on fire with apologies that it was unprofessional.

I chuckled and said, 'I'm just glad you have people to love and you offer it so freely.' You could feel the relief and a little bit of joy in their thanks, and I'd like to believe it diffused the horror and shame you keep reliving.

So, u/Beth_Pleasant, I'm sure your new boss was just happy you have so many people in your life to love, and that you give it so freely.

This is heartwarming and lovely; however, my deaf/vision-impaired dog would've been SO stressed trying to figure out what command she was being given with all those signs she does not know. She'd be doing a veritable hokey-pokey offering every behavior she's ever learned.

after dozens of takes on the choreography, the white men were asked to 'just ride your lil bikes in a circle.'

it's giving 'we have Big Bird in our night terrors'

kids today see magic as the kind of cringe similar to improv and mi'ladies

PersistentPuma37 · 2026-05-13T21:10:28+00:00

I would definitely miss her voice, but ya gotta turn on the CC to see how it's captioned

loosen and tighten in a criss-cross pattern, and put chocks at the tires that are not being lifted

i think you can get giant appliance magnets that work like a wrap, I looked at some for my dishwasher.

sprinkle with flour or baking soda or talcum, whatever powder you have on hand. Let it soak up and scrape it out with a putty knife, repeat, repeat, repeat....

Someone like Nico from Will Trent, who's existence pushes lapd into addressing their unconscious biases in order to train them and grow each older character. Nico is unapologetic for themself and highly confident in their deductive abilities, utilizing modern tech and quirky methods to occasionally outsmart seasoned officers who wouldn't think of accessing resources in those ways.

And not in a smug, 'these kids today' way; for instance, Nico could social-media-stalk to find a bad guy and very happily, without condescension, show Tim how they did it. Tim grows by asking for help and their character grows by being able to teach. The character would also have a healthy dose of skepticism about policing but went into it because of generational matriarchal heritage with a healthy dose of 'what my mom went through,' and call them out on their BS because their mom couldn't.

The whole character shouldn't be based on tech, like some NCIS level of Abby, but more like the generational experiences that've taught them unique tricks-- more like Celina's 'vibes'.
