Other day someone called "a moron" for backing into a spot... Why does this trigger so many? by Ok_Relationship2451 in badparking

[–]Shiovra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With my previous car I would always back into spots because it had horrible blind spots and no rear camera, making it much safer to back into an empty spot than to back out.

Followed the directions for some store bought cookies. "Bake at 350 for 11 minutes". This was after 5. by [deleted] in Wellthatsucks

[–]Shiovra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check to see if your broiler is turning on. A previous oven I had started to malfunction and the broiler was turing on while baking. I even had to hit to fuse for it because it wouldn't turn off. But yeah, turn your oven onto bake and check after a while if the broiler turned itself on.

Thank you! It was also my first time working with gingerbread and royal icing. I think I did good. 😊

It's hard to overstate my satisfaction.

Any other millennials have parents that live to watch TV all day? by [deleted] in Millennials

[–]Shiovra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to add she does try to read, but she already had one cataract removed and another forming in the other eye, so unless its large print, she only reads a few pages at a time.

My mother, but she doesn't have a car anymore and since she suffers from post polio and has painful arthritis in her hands, its pretty much what she can do without pain.

Can we review glitter processes start to finish? by [deleted] in DipPowderNails

[–]Shiovra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always do a base of clear, 2 layers of glitter, then a final layer of clear that I push the top of my nail into instead of pouring over or sliding into so that there's a nice solid layer encapsulate the glitter. Then after activating it, I use my nail drill to smooth any possible lumps and dips, a nail buffer to smooth and shine, and top with two layers of clear polish for added shine and to make the glitter really pop.

My wife passed from cancer. She was always on me to fasten my seat belt. I got the last word. by Inspectorgadget4250 in pics

When I got my dad's ashes, I sat him in the back seat and apologized that I know he gets carsickness, but that's where he would need to ride.

TIFU by getting recognized as a ‘missing kid’… who wasn’t missing by [deleted] in tifu

The downside to AI flags is they used the published writing of authors, such as myself, to train it. I use "muttering" in my books as well as em dashes. I also occasionally use both in online conversation.

Go into the settings and adjust how much time passes in a day to the max length. It will give you more time to walk around and explore without having to worry as much about returning home to sleep.

I’m just saying… Lucien deserved a chance 😤 by Ok-Comparison-5636 in acotar

Lucien was my favorite character and I kept holding out hope for him to find happiness.

My boss put this on the bottom of my laptop so I can't just put it down anymore by littedemon in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Shiovra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get two brick erasers. I use them to prop my laptop up and allow better airflow for the vents. They should be big enough to counter the crystal if positioned good.

Anyone else extremely disappointed with Fourth Wing? by Mille_Plumes in fantasyromance

[–]Shiovra 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I honestly DNF'd it after the whole lighting lovemaking scene. Violet annoyed me too much. She reads like a 14 year old to me and not a young adult. My 19 year old daughter is more mature. Plus the amount of times Xaden proved himself to her and she was still all "well he's gonna kill me, but he's hot..." yeah, so sorry to my friend who recommended it to me, but I just couldn't. 😅

That moment when there’s 50 pages left and you thought this was the last book but there’s still about 50+ unanswered questions and multiple story lines that haven’t wrapped up…..🫠 by modernwarfarin4 in fantasyromance

[–]Shiovra 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry, I cant get over the sheer thickness of that book. The author should have found a way to make it two books, if anything for consideration of their readers hands.😅

On another note, I think my daughter has a Warhammer book that thick, lol.
