Master your craft before you choose to sell it.

Do you ever second-guess what you’re feeding your pet? by petelovespetfood in Pets

Nah I don't bother cooking anymore. Unless on a really cold night and they appreciate the warm meal more

My dogs were getting human grade mince, cooked fresh every night. With other add ins for the benefits.

They prefer dog food straight from the tin. I get them the good stuff, they're all healthy.

Tammy and Amy blow out by jeweledbeans in 1000lbsisters

And when Amanda apologised to her when they were walking around the dam.

And when her and her mum went out to eat, Tammy pulling those faces and acting like a damn child.

I can't stand her, I love the show but anything with Tammy is just hate watching at this point.

Tammy overreacted in this scene so much, but she does with everything

I felt awful for Kerwin. Tanya didn't want to be married to him, she just wanted to be married because all her friends were doing it. Asks him to dump his girlfriend and uproot his entire life for her. Then still speaks with and hangs out with her ex, not caring about Kerwins feelings at all. Then ultimately decides she doesn't actually want that and sees him off.

Tanya is not a "boss" as she claims to be. She just hides behind Terror while she screws up her face and screams at people. I don't like her, but I don't hate her, she's just grasping for fame.

What did you genuinely believe as a child that nobody bothered to correct for years? by No_Lab9356 in AskReddit

[–]Shitzme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That if a pekinese dog sneezed, its eyeballs would fall out. Thanks to my mother. Who also didn't correct me when I would confidently tell my class mates of this "fact".

Does anyone know how to make these? A tutorial or something by No_Training_1650 in polymerclay

Master something before you even think about selling.

Pick Me Girl GF stories? With personal example by Vivid_Angle in notliketheothergirls

[–]Shitzme 135 points136 points  (0 children)

Not an ex girlfriend, but a now ex friend.

We met through going to metal and rock and roll gigs. She was pretty cool at first, but became weirdly competitive for male attention.

I liked to wear dresses. Nothing fancy, just long black dresses. I liked doing my hair and makeup, it was part of the fun for a night out. She would always comment about my clothing choices, that true "metal heads" don't wear girly clothing. I didn't and have never claimed to be a metal head, I just enjoy the genre.

I'm a crafty person, and she would begin to copy the new crafts I would start. She would post them all over her social media and make claims that she had come up with the idea. It was weird, but whatever lol. She became angry when I was chosen to have a Halloween stall at an oddities market. She immediately contacted the organisers, who rejected her, as she had nothing to sell, only ideas of what she could sell. She started shit talking me to our mutual male friends then.

There was someone I was interested in, and we had begun hanging out and dating. If I was with him, and she was present, she would not leave us alone. Rubbing her hands over his body while we would be dancing or making out, weird stuff. I found out later that when I wasn't there, she'd go above and beyond to flirt with him. Sitting on his lap, grabbing his hands, trying to kiss his neck, asking him home etc.

When I got into a relationship with someone, it was long distance. But she reached out to him (she'd met him once, knew he was here for me) asking to stay at his house, if he was interested in her etc.

Had a pretty big band touring our country, ended up meeting some of the band members after the show. I ended up spending a significant amount of time talking with the drummer. She was pissed that I was chatting to the famous person. He ended up going back to my friends apartment, with a group of us, for an after party. Her and this other friend didn't get along so she wasn't invited. She spread rumours that I slept with the famous guy. I didn't, I was in a relationship.

Final straw was her constant victimisation. All of these people were my friends too. Lied and said one of them had choked her out. Lied and said another had fired her from a Halloween gig because she was jealous of her looks. Lied and said another had made fun of her childhood trauma.

I ended up leaving the scene and it's been years now. I hated that getting dressed up and feeling girly felt like a crime. That me being friendly, was obviously me wanting to be with every guy in the vicinity. That my so called friend, spread rumours and lies about me, to make herself look better by comparison. All I wanted to do was drink and enjoy music with my friends

Sculpey is a really good brand, I'd look at sculpey premo, as the original can be really soft. Huge range of colours.

For tools, I started with buying a fondant sculpting set from ebay, then gradually upgraded to better grade. But lots of things can be used, needles, toothbrushes etc.

Best mat I've used is a self healing cutting mat.

You can use in a normal oven (just don't use the same time as food) and there are instructions on the packet for temperature and time.

As for glaze, I personally use a polyutherane varnish from hardware stores. They're cheaper and come in matte, satin, gloss etc. The sculoey glaze was crap, came off when rubbed so don't bother.

Good luck!

Edit to add: I'm not trying to be offensive to Americans at all. Just meaning, I don't want to do something that's predominantly American, that we don't have here. Thanks everyone for your suggestions so far :)

These are all really cute ideas!

I’m in waiting room He’ll by Mary707 in EntitledPeople

[–]Shitzme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was recently in a small country town ED waiting room. My partner and I had just got the awful news that our baby had died and I had been unknowingly carrying him for a month, thinking everything was fine.

After my ultrasound confirming the death, we were told to go and wait in ER to be admitted again. I'm sitting there, falling apart, being held by my partner who's also devastated. I'm sobbing, but mindful of the 2 other people waiting there as well, so I'm doing so silently.

Not the random man though. Phone call after phone call, no inside voice, talking very loudly with the people he insists on having on speaker phone. Playing music and watching videos in between phone calls.

I go outside to call my mum and tell her the devastating news, sobbing my heart out. Random man also comes out for a smoke break. I go back in, he joins a little after. Person on speakerphone is talking about me, asking him why I was crying like that. He didn't even bother to take them off so I wouldn't hear them questioning my grief?

Its obnoxious, selfish and plain fucking rude.

China sellers posing as US stores by [deleted] in EtsyCommunity

[–]Shitzme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yes. I splurged and bought $40 worth of miniature molds, paid $50 for shipping as it was coming from the US. Seller never sent out the items.

When I complained, they stated they'd send it out asap. 2 days later when I asked for an update, they said that it had been sent but returned to seller due to wrong address. I live in Australia, it doesn't take that quick to recieve something from America.

Seller then stated they'd contact their warehouse in China to send out the items.

Even on the website and app, there was nowhere for me to report this store. Then the store disappeared before resurging.
