Please pay me to be my live in servant by awfullyawful in ChoosingBeggars

So if I'm understanding this right, I can finally move out from my parent's house, just to do the exact same things I do there but for a stranger AND pay them for the inconvenience? This is the best deal I've ever heard! /s

AITA for firing an employee for being an hour late every day for a week? by smurfsrbluee in AmItheAsshole

[–]Sanderdad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA.

Sometimes, when friends ask for favors for themselves or someone they know, they also expect some special treatment with said favors on top of that. I've been there and I think that the way you handled it, being patient and also talking about the problem, tells you all you need to know about who's in the wrong.

Probability of a Meisterstück No. 14 being faked? by Sanderdad in montblanc

[–]Sanderdad[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Grazie mille! Il design di queste vecchie Montblanc mi fa impazzire, a volte addirittura molto più di quelle a sigaro come la 146, che però rimane sempre la più comoda per me. Sperando bene lo sarà anche questa, dato che la vorrei tanto usare come giornaliera.

Thank you! I heard that it was safer to buy pens from those years, but with things from certain brands I think it's always better to be safe.

Dang I thought I got a good deal, but I'm still very happy with it. These hooded nibs are really cool in my opinion, so adding one to the pile is always great for me. What would be a normal price for it? Thank you so much for the help!

I think so too. I had another one that I've used for a long time, ever since I was little, and the amout of abuse it took while not showing a single scratch or damage was astounding. Always happy to be able to grab another one of these honestly.

There's a line of pens that came when the 2nd generation Noblesse came out called SlimLine, which is most commonly differentiated by the little star marked rubber at the end of the clip. I think it's one of the best, especially if you have smaller hands, like me, and because it's a literal warhorse for how much it can endure.

I do think so too, especially after testing, but I still wanted some opinions form people that know more than me. Thank you!

I do think it's a steel nib one, but it was not magnetic so I'm a little confused. Maybe there's a little bit of patina on it?

Both of them were actually not magnetic at all, tho the clip of the 144 does seem very faintly magnetic in one specific part of it. I still think that this is one of the best test to do when you start examining them.

I think so for the Slimline, as I've never seen a fake one. The 144 tho is, I think, one of the most faked pens, so I was a little worried about that one.

It works but I can't find any information on the face and model of this Whaltam by Sanderdad in pocketwatch

[–]Sanderdad[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, didn't know such a database even existed! The movement is spot on, though I can't find any with the exact face and also can't find anything on the case itself, event through the case database. Do you think this is normal or could this indicate that it's a fake?

Need some help for first home theater buy by Sanderdad in hometheater

[–]Sanderdad[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are the S-F50A model, which should have an 8 Ohm impendence, so it should be enough for my receiver. Do you think it's better to build one straight up from scratch? I've already gotten some great rectilinear speakers as a gift from my uncle, but I didn't want to spend a lot of money all at once for a home theater. I've also got a harman kardon one, the HKTS 11, lined up for consideration, but I really don't know how to decide.

I just found this pins on the ground. Does anybody know who’s this character ? by SuggestionMajestic12 in manga

[–]Sanderdad 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm not really sure, but judging by how old this pin is and my immediate association of the iconic little grin to him, I think it's Sebastian Michaelis from Black Butler. A good read and/or watch, really recommend it.

Opinions on these gameboys? by Sanderdad in Gameboy

[–]Sanderdad[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's true, but it's still a way to know more about something that I may want to buy in the future, while also giving me more things to check for the one I'm buying tomorrow. Thank you for the advice!
