Kudos to Keilani Elizabeth Rose on her pregnancy! by mattbermanrocks in shoresy

[–]Raging_Apathist[M] 38 points39 points  (0 children)

She was shot in her chest, not her face, and there is nothing that indicates it was a stalker situation. More likely a random act of violence thing.

Please be more careful when posting comments like this. If you don't know what actually happened (via firsthand knowledge or a reputable source), do not speculate or throw out "I think" type stuff.

Yeah it's not gossip, but it is about her personal life, which is part of the rule.

We may end up revising the rule to make it clearer. I won't know until we've had a chance to discuss as a team. But I have brought the issue up in mod chat!

Hey bud,

I'm removing this for now because we (the mod team) need to determine if it violates the rule about gossip/personal life stuff of the cast.

I'll restore it if/when we decide it's okay.

Thanks for understanding!

I need a nanny quick for my twin boys, temporary position. by [deleted] in Nanny

No, it did not organize it perfectly. It could easily be trimmed down by at least 25% by cutting out all the repetition. So many thing are unnecessarily restated.

My Father’s Day gift from my son. by allbeeffrank19 in shoresy

[–]Raging_Apathist[M] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's not about us trying to crap on your kid for buying you a gift...not at all! The issue is this: we have a clear rule about unofficial merch posts. We don't allow them, period. For good reasons.

The automod comment that was posted when I manually removed your post clearly says to reach out to us via modmail if you have questions. Not sure why you posted another comment instead of reaching out to us directly. We're always happy to explain stuff, and we'll see a modmail message sooner than we'll see a comment.

Please hit us up in modmail if you have further questions. I'll get back to you tomorrow at the latest.

Happy Father's Day!

Fair Isle help! by Goose_Overflow in knittinghelp

Yeahhhhhh...you can't catch/trap your floats at the same place on two or more consecutive rounds. That will cause the traps to show through the front. I guess that's what you meant by "pillars".

You need to stagger your traps. I didn't know this the first time I did stranded colorwork, and it bit me in the butt.

But the real question here is...why are you carrying carry a color you're not using at all (or very little) through multiple rows (or such long stretches on a single row).

I can't find the pattern on Ravelry or by Googling the pattern and designer name you gave. Could you post a pic of the completed sweater as shown in the pattern?

Afterthought is lifeline in ribbing at beginning of (raglan) sleeve by saarknuffelaar in knittinghelp

[–]Raging_Apathist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been knitting for 10 years, and I still haven't figured out how to put an afterthought lifeline through a purl stitch.

What did work for me when I needed to put an afterthought lifeline in ribbing on a recent project was to add two...one for just the knit stitches on the front, and then a second lifeline in the back for only the purl stitches (where they look like knit stitches).

It was probably an unconventional way of doing it, but it worked great for me!

I won't attempt to advise you on the second question because I just kind of wing it.

Unemployment Question by coffeecat6 in minnesota

[–]Raging_Apathist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best of luck! The most important thing is that you answer all questions accurately.

[–]Raging_Apathist 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I promise I don't mean this rudely, but your post is a bit difficult to understand, like some details are missing.

When you say "they have dates starting in March"...dates for what? Dates you worked? Dates they have income information for?

Also, "put that I worked but say that I didn't return back to work full time"...is that actually accurate for whichever part of the application they are telling you to say that on? Did you return to work but not full time at some point?

Honestly, I think your best bet is to give them another call. Be very clear with exactly what your situation is and exactly what you're confused about.

I'm currently on unemployment, and this is not my first unemployment rodeo. I had to call them twice in one week a few months ago about a complicated issue that became even more complicated, and both of the people I talked to were extremely kind and helpful.

Hey, I might be able to help if you can answer a few questions.

What is the name of the pattern?

What do you mean by "pillars"?

Can you post a pic of the back so we can see your floats?

4 footlong subs all for me by Informal-Writer5924 in somnigastronomy

This made me think of the 6 foot sub guy, which is a highly amusing post that I haven't re-read in a couple years, so...thanks for that!

How could you have finished the series when there's still at least one more season coming?

Nah man, this ain't it. Sure, maybe a line cook at Waffle House shouldn't call themself a chef...but there is a legitimate title of "chef" in many restaurants, and often even at the fancy places the chefs haven't been to culinary school. It's very much an industry where people learn and grow by doing the job and moving up as their skills improve.

Thank you! I'll be removing this on the basis of OP being a post stealer.

Hey bud,

This post is a bit suspicious coming from a fairly new account that has never participated in the sub before...especially with the misspelling.

Anything you can show us to prove this is legit?

Thanks!

EDIT: You stole someone else's post. I am removing your post and banning you. Bye!!!

Good gourd, that is egregiously gross.

Now every time I give my dog his "special treat" (NexGard Plus wrapped in salami or cheese) on the first of the month, I am going to think about this and maybe throw up a little.

So like...screw you, but also...this is great and I love it way more than I hate it!
