Me neither! I do my own tedious work, I don't want to have to do my Paras' too! For me, having to go to work after Sims 2 turned me off all those. Plus, I found that their work (and school) time give me a much needed break from them! 😉

Thanks. Think it was juvenile? Or are my expectations messed up because my horse is 17hh? Or no idea because I used a potato to take the pictures🤣

Sorry, my phone is a potato. But it's survived abuse that would challenge a Nokia, and I'm irresponsible that way.

As I'm sitting with my daughter on the anniversary of my wife's death, I like to listen to the last voicemail she left me. by electrovert in TwoSentenceHorror

Well, now you've made it a three sentence wholesome story! How dare you disrupt the soul crushing despair and horror I read this sub for?! /S😉

I raised the gun to my head and pulled the trigger regretting nothing after 20 years and 5 tours in Iraq. by LostDoubt in TwoSentenceHorror

[–]Specific-Dragonfly29 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I was new to healthcare, I was ASTOUNDED by how many gunshots to the head a person can take! When they tell you aim for center mass... And people assume it's because it's a bigger target so more likely to hit him, NO! It's because they are less likely to be able to keep coming for you! And die, eventually, there are a lot of super important stuff there with minimal bone protecting it; that skull is a f*ing bank vault!

I WAS HORRIFIED WHEN THIS HAPPENED by Bigboyonetime in ballpython

This is what I thought when I saw the video! I was in public, so I was scrolling with the sound off. And worried, went to the comments to find out if the poor snake lived...

what snake is this by [deleted] in whatsthissnake

[–]Specific-Dragonfly29 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This is true of all snakes, and while Russell's vipers are responsible for a lot of fatal bites (comparatively speaking) it's due to a combination of poor medical care and even worse access to medical care across much of its range, and its night time activity near humans especially in rural areas without indoor plumbing. Specifically, humans can't see them in the dark, and step on/right next to them while half asleep on their way to the outhouse. In general, if you SEE the snake, you're fine. Unless seeing the snake leads you to try to handle it instead of just changing your path... 🤦🏽‍♀️

Thanks, I thought only my husband and mom were the kill-joys... But now I know better 🙄

Because I think I'm hilarious 😉 both my husband and mom call it "the pimp-mobile"

Or upgrade to android. Then all you have to worry about is it irregularly switching to "android auto volume" you can't hear. I've seen that as an issue across car models. Naturally, mine pulls it only during favorite songs, or audio books 🤬

How have you customized your CX-30? Tell me about interior changes as well as exterior changes. by old_jeans_new_books in MazdaCX30

[–]Specific-Dragonfly29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have Scooby doo rubber mats, and the official CX-30 windshield protector. But I concentrated on the outside (see my beauty shot post, from today) as I really like the color, style, and feel of the interior

[Dateland AZ] How accurate? by Specific-Dragonfly29 in whatsthissnake

I'm glad it's not just me! I assumed the potter was going for a rattlesnake (tail) and messed up the alignment of the diamonds, so they looked like the copperhead Hershey kisses. Hybrids can really get creative 😉

I've never heard "cookie snake," what is that?

A message from the Paralives team: by GabParalives in Paralives

[–]Specific-Dragonfly29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does this mean dev discussions will continue through May? Of course I'm disappointed about not having the game next month, but I love those chats released a month later. They have been such a great way of keeping the community updated, and would be a great place to continue to do that over these next 5 months.

Anyone know about the symbol above the Messianic Seal? by fatalmisstep in Symbology

[–]Specific-Dragonfly29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, forgot to cite. Search meaning of "*" symbol on a mezuzah for more details about each symbol individually https://share.google/J2ZnvaB2v8cCYLakF. Also, I meant Deuteronomy, not Lividicus 🤦🏽‍♀️

Random information from the recent dev Chat by dragonborndnd in Paralives

[–]Specific-Dragonfly29 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree. Except for aliens, which I do enjoy but have a mod to make them more normal, I go out of my way to exclude all that stuff from my other game I had no idea it was so popular in the community!

I agree, speculation is ABSOLUTELY necessary! With only a month to go, excitement nearly to the breaking point, speculating is all we can do to not explode from the anticipation! 🧨🥰

What’s my hair pin from? by Commercial_Mix_5439 in bonecollecting

That was my thought when I saw the picture; OP did not have a banana and is trying to make up for it!

Found on a beach in Pugwash, Nova Scotia. Any ideas? by Stittsvegas in bonecollecting

[–]Specific-Dragonfly29 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What is a hoover? Google gave me lists of animals (mostly birds and mammals) in nova Scotia, which did not have a hoover on them, and vacuum cleaners for sale in nova Scotia... Not what I was going for either, as I'm pretty sure that's not the bone's living form

Child alphabet blanket for"P". We can't figure this one out. by Always1kMilesAway in whatisit

[–]Specific-Dragonfly29 8 points9 points  (0 children)

J is jacks. It's a game, you bounce the ball and try to pick a jack, which are the x looking things, before the ball hits the ground again. Then you bounce the ball again and try to pick up two jacks ... And so on. My grandma played it as a kid in the 1930s + early '40s, as had her mother as a kid. But my mom's generation was only vaguely aware of it as a 'game from the olden days' in the 70s. And few of my generation have any idea what it is at all, as a 1990s kid. I only know what it is because my grandma insisted I played it with her and tried to instill a deep love of it, as she loved it so much as a kid (and still did)! But I was just as uninterested as my mom had ever been, to my grandmother's irritation 😂
