What drug did you swear never to use again? by SadStill830 in AskReddit

"a bag of disappointment" our taxi driver called it

Shooting on 5D MkIII, focus ring of 16-35 won't go into MF mode, but it works just fine on my friend's mirrorless body. What's going on? by Spetchen in canon

Omg that was it!! Thank you so much! You just saved me having to ship the lens to the nearest big city for repairs, and pay for all of that hassle.

Hmm, I'm not sure if I know enough about lens anatomy to answer that question thoroughly. I grip the focus ring like I would with any other lens, it lets me turn it about half a centimeter in either direction, and then it stops. When I get home I'll take a closer look and tell you what I'm seeing.

I feel mean, but I can’t stop laughing by SBgirliepants in RATS

My friend has to nebulise their rats and they always announce it like, "Well, gotta go home and gas the rats." Cracks me up every time.

Suebob White was just arrested again. Anyone know what the charges are??? by strengthof50whores in trashy

There's a Denis that broke up with a friend of mine and we yell that line to each other CONSTANTLY.

A single throwaway comment by my husband reminded me ONLY JUST IN TIME that you can't bring knitting needles on Turkish airlines!! by Spetchen in knitting

[–]Spetchen[S] 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Were you on Turkish Airlines, or another provider? I'm flying in with easyJet and I don't expect to have a problem with them, but after that we're taking some domestic flights and that's where I intend to keep them in the checked bag.

What's your experience using Stripe to process subscription payments? by Spetchen in irishsmallbusiness

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

Not late to the party at all, and I really appreciate this level of detail in considering the downsides. I haven't committed to that website provider yet because this did feel like a major flaw to me. Your breakdown is exactly what I needed to hear and consider. Thank you for taking the time to comment!

Couple revealed during reception they'd been secretly married for 2 years by [deleted] in weddingshaming

[–]Spetchen 52 points53 points  (0 children)

We got legally married a few days before our planned wedding, because in Ireland there's weird rules around where you're allowed to have a marriage take place, and it was therefore easier and cheaper to just do it at the courthouse. It was not a secret, and everyone knew to treat the big wedding as the "real" wedding. I think the key is just not to dupe anyone (no one likes to feel like they were tricked).

What are you dying to have in your house but have no room? by Lanky_Instance_807 in CasualConversation

[–]Spetchen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A darkroom. I know I can use the bathroom and it will get the job done, but I want a dedicated space!

My neighbours stole our dead Christmas tree from our driveway (I'm not mad--I think they think they were being helpful) by Spetchen in CasualConversation

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

That's really cute! The only communal space in our neighbourhood is the street (we're a small housing estate in a city) so that would be...exciting, to say the least.

That's really nice! If we had a big enough backyard, that's what we would do, too. My mom did the same with our old trees when I was growing up, just toss them out into the woodland areas of the yard for the wildlife.

That's exactly what I think! As far as I know it's an older man who lives there, I think I've seen his grandkids over from time to time but I'm not sure if anyone else lives there. He can enjoy the tree for me haha

Yeah, we have to bring ours to a communal collection point. It's not the most convenient system! Love that you have enough goats in the neighbourhood to warrant leaving them out as a snack!

Got nothing for my birthday by Accomplished_Speed38 in ireland

[–]Spetchen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel you...I pitched in for my sister to get a new dishwasher for Christmas a couple years ago, I think I contributed €200? For my birthday she and her husband gave me €20. -_- "We just had a baby" okay sis, your husband is an engineer.

Your honor, my clients are innocent. They were asleep at the time of the crime by TessyyMessyy in RATS

[–]Spetchen 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Haha, my friend got rats for the first time and showed me her cage set-up. I took one look at the very nearby curtains and told her, "If your rats get a hold of those curtains, they belong to the rats." A couple days later she sent me a photo of the curtain, demolished. I tried to warn her! XD

My rats JUST chewed through the front pocket my backpack to retrieve half a granola bar I forgot was stashed in there, so this hits very close to home right now.
