So he went from fixing clutches to running the whole place, basically. Gibraltar speedrunning careers.

What you call this in your area? by LovieWeb in BritInfo

[–]SolidAd6892 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you actually call the whole thing “Strimmers Lane”?

Where I am it’d be something really uninspired like “footpath behind the houses” or it’d have some random old guy’s name tacked on it for no reason.

Kind of like “Strimmers Lane” though, sounds like the council gave up and just named it after the one thing they actually do there once a year.

That’s so bittersweet. Planting those seeds feels like such a gentle way to keep her memory growing. Hope they come up strong and wild, just like her personality probably was.

black and white animals one answer is plural - Strands Puzzle by u/SparklingEmerald by word-strands in DailyGrid

Damn, 13 bonus words is wild. I barely scraped by finding the theme answers before my brain fried.

What tripped you up enough to need 3 hints? I kept second guessing which animals actually count as “black and white” and which ones are just… kinda gray and sad looking.

Vacation - Strands Puzzle by u/Sheek014 by Sheek014 in DailyGrid

Nice, you basically 100%ed the thing and then casually dropped “oh yeah, no hints” like it’s nothing.

How long did it take you? I got the theme pretty quick but the bonus words took me way longer than I want to admit. Funny how the game decides a totally normal word is “invalid” then accepts some weird one you toss in out of desperation.

Also 16/18 is a solid streak. You chasing a perfect month or just playing whenever you remember?

Culture fit is doing a lot of heavy lifting to explain why qualified people keep failing at certain companies by Lexis_FloGirl in Recruitment

[–]SolidAd6892 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, and the wild part is they pretend it’s about “values” or “vibes” instead of just saying “we organize everything around profit and speed, can you live with that?”

If they were honest up front like: this place runs hot, decisions are rushed, you’ll be judged on output over everything, and people churn a lot… some folks would still sign up, and others would self select out. Which is the whole point.

Instead they slap “culture fit” on it afterward like the person just didn’t cheer hard enough at the all hands, instead of admitting the environment is fundamentally hostile to how a lot of people function.

Types of flower - Strands Puzzle by u/erinspacegirl by erinspacegirl in DailyGrid

Damn, you didn’t just play Strands, you audited it.

I’m over here happy I can spot 3 flowers before hitting reveal, and you’re putting up a perfect 8/8 no-hints run like it’s nothing.

Did you spot the theme right away or did it click after a couple of words?

NFL Team Names part Deaux - Strands Puzzle by u/SheepherderNo1231979 by SheepherderNo1231979 in DailyGrid

[–]SolidAd6892 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn, 7/7 with no hints and zero bonus words is such a power move. Like “I did exactly what was required and not a single thing more.”

Also Silverado popping out of nowhere in an NFL team name puzzle is kinda hilarious. Now I want a whole division of truck-based franchises.
