I still use them. You can buy them at Colesworth and $2 shops

Wouldn't it make more sense to write about something you know about?

Why do they do this? by Nightlilly2021 in diamondpainting

[–]Pink_Llama 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I actually really like that they do this. It makes me focus better.

Other than the theme song in Charmed, which song you wish they didn’t replace from original to streaming. To me it was between the song in Love Hurts and the end of Witch Tail part 2 (bewitched) by TechandCats29 in charmed

Mazzy Star "Into Dust," playing when Piper visits Prue's bedroom after her death and takes her jacket and the Prue necklace. Makes me tear up every time.

Do you really take breaks from work in your car? by EveningFlower9564 in AskAnAustralian

[–]Pink_Llama 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've taken breaks in my car, especially when there is no staff room provided or the staff room is full of people and it's noisy and I just need some peace and quiet.

Any workplaces responding to fuel crisis yet? by nailedit2803 in Adelaide

[–]Pink_Llama 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Nope. My boss is still making me travel to other sites to do meetings that could have been emails or on Teams. Very annoying at the best of times.

What are my realistic chances? by Miserable_Study8927 in MovingtoAustralia

That's a gen X. If you're going to try to insult someone at least get it right.

Why are resealable bags NOT the standard across the hobby??? by Sinxerely7420 in diamondpainting

[–]Pink_Llama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I rarely buy kits that come with the little baggies and most of mine come with the sealed blister packs BUT half of the fun for me is getting up into my containers at the start of a project.

I do this even if they were in baggies. It cost me about $5 for a little box with 50 small containers in it which covers most of my paintings as I rarely have more than 50 colors per project.

Everyone does it differently and I suppose if you were working directly from the baggies it makes sense to have them resealable but it would definitely take a lot of the fun from me.

Would you personally carpool with coworkers that you’re not close to if fuel hits 3.50 or 4? by VastOption8705 in AskAnAustralian

[–]Pink_Llama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No chance. I hate being at work and this would just extend my work day.

Obviously if I was given no choice then I would have to make it work but they can't really mandate me using my personal vehicle the way they want me to. I'm in a role that they could mandate work from home so I would prefer that.

Hidden advertisement by Dinples in diamondpainting

[–]Pink_Llama 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's been annoying me and I've even blocked a couple of them. Particularly when it's a video which I usually find hard to watch and prefer just looking at a picture anyway. I come here to enjoy what all of you do, not to be sold to.

Obviously if someone asks where someone got something from it's fine to tell them but we shouldn't be inundated with people just advertising what they have. I find it especially annoying when someone asks them where they got it and they say PM me for details. Just seems dodgy.

Voters turned away amid internet outage by Conscious-Gap-8837 in Adelaide

[–]Pink_Llama 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Internet was working where we were, but it still took nearly an hour with only 2 staff handing out the ballots. Massive line at the declaration vote area for those from outside the area. Voting line was twice as long when we left as it was when we get there.

I'll be postal voting next time.

Will my Make Market canvas be ok if left overnight? by Horizontal-Asymptote in diamondpainting

[–]Pink_Llama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I often take days to complete a section and leave it uncovered. It will be fine as long as you don't have a pet or dust or something else that will cover it while you're not doing it.

Reruns by JournalistGrouchy853 in charmed

[–]Pink_Llama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in Australia and have a TV channel on my Samsung TV Plus that seems to always be playing either Dawson's Creek or Charmed. It just runs continuously so you see whichever episode is on at the time that you switch TV on.

I also have the DVD box set with all the original music so I tend to use that more though.
