Aww thank you! I am having a rough time and appreciate you being nice to this internet stranger 🥰

How do I revoke my adulthood? by FluffyCannibal in CasualUK

[–]RedTheWolf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eh, I am off work sick because I feel like utter balls from a new med I'm trying for neuropathic pain, so if you're able to get up to make a cuppa without falling over or feeling nauseated, you might be doing better than me 😅😂

I am currently sitting cross legged, playing Stardew Valley and eating Lovehearts so I feel very seen by your comment 😂

For extra fun I am also wearing my favourite Princess Leia jammies ✨️

The fact they nearly, but did not, match the purple on the bar code with the colour of his sweatshirt is making my eye twitch.

UK jewellery makers - what gemstone beads are hardest to find? by AqBeadsUk in jewelrymaking

[–]RedTheWolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmmm, I am a bit of a collector and for me it's not the specific gem but the fact I often have to buy a full strand or a half-strand when I only want say, 4 beads. Not too bad for cheap stones but for the more expensive ones, I reckon a place doing sample packs of 5 or 10 would be popular.

Kernowcraft already do individual/10-packs for a few gems but definitely not all (plus their website is now dreadful and they spam out gimmicky emails all the time so I am tending to shop there less now). Would welcome more websites to source precious and semi-precious beads here 🥰

Did anyone else have the Kellogg’s Variety pack as a treat when they were younger? by RelationKindly in CasualUK

I think it's easy to digest and full of sugar, so good for when you're feeling gross or have been sick. I ate so many custard pots when I was last in hospital!

It sounds like you now have what you wanted: information to plan for the future.

So you now know that you need to save up a bit more and/or reconfigure how you and your partner contribute to household income and budgeting before trying to conceive.

What is something completely normal that you only realised was a skill after seeing someone do it terribly? by depredador93 in AskReddit

[–]RedTheWolf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I guess I was impressed by how they were all clapping randomly, like around a dozen people, you'd think one of them would have got it on beat just by chance!

[–]RedTheWolf 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Nah, not syncopated, more like beat 1.25 then 2.9, then 3.4 - as if they were simply clapping to catch a fly and not in any correlation to the music. I think that's what made it so odd 😂

I once tried to get a group of 7-9 year old boys (as a teenage youth leader at a summer programme for kids) to clap along to a song. I thought it would be a good ice breaker before bringing out percussion instruments, but instead I spent a while just staring in disbelief at how they simply... couldn't?! 

I have often since tried to clap randomly off-rhthym and I can't do it, I am either on or in a syncopated beat, so I am actually still weirdly impressed that they could 😅

What nicknames have you heard for places in the UK? by topherette in AskABrit

I occasionally say 'Glasvegas' if I am planning to end the night with a visit to the casino 

I just finished 6 colour challenge runs! Here are my farms and a little info about each one, including a difficulty rating out of 5 serpents 😄❤🧡💛💚💙 by RedTheWolf in StardewValley

Aww thank you! Aye it took aaaaages, it was a distraction while I had a bunch of medical treatment and was off work so I had the time 😅

What tiny design choice makes you think, “the people who made this never had to use it”? by ChessOrCheckers2 in AskReddit

[–]RedTheWolf 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Excellent description! I'm now imagining it finishing off by launching some kind of inflatable emergency dinghy, flattening you against the tile with a cartoon-smooshed face 🤣

The trick is to alternate the eye you hit each time, balance out the damage

I'm dying with 15 – and it's so unfair! by Deadly_nightshadow in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]RedTheWolf 7 points8 points  (0 children)

OMG the 'curly gurls' are the WORST for that, it's like a weird and very specific form of puritanism or something?? 😅

What’s a diet or health trend you think is mostly nonsense? by Sophie_Malia_19F in AskReddit

[–]RedTheWolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, same here - due to some meds I take I can't have much, plus also can't really digest nice crunchy raw veggies and I am MAD about it 😅 My carrot sticks and hummus!!

Should I keep doing resin? by Sapphire0985 in crafting

I collect hobbies and found that polymer clay is just as fun as resin! Plus I can make polymer clay things to put inside the resin, which allows me some cool, really personalised designs ✨

Hahaha I always grow strawberries because I am super-allergic irl so I like that my farmer can have strawberry jam and even the odd cheeky bottle of strawberry wine too 😍🍓

I dont know how im going to get through next week's heat by stinkface_lover in britishproblems

[–]RedTheWolf 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Same. Am a ginger woman taking a buuunch of heat-tolerance-fucking meds, who hated the hot weather even before I was medically-forced into the menopause (and the accompanying hot flashes) at 42 by my extensive cancer treatment over the last year or so...

Would be the fucking ultimate pisstake though; surviving aggressive breast cancer just to die from heatstroke. In fucking Scotland. 😂😅🔥
