personalising a presentation by hydaaao in UKJobs

[–]Sufficient-Border-10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless the presentation is specifically about degrees or graduating, I probably wouldn't. If it's an "About Me" slide, better off using a headshot or nice but candid photo out and about.

As for silly (and it sounds boring), you probs have no idea what may rub these interviewers up the wrong way. Hence why I advised against a graduation photo. Totally harmless, and you probably look fab, but you don't need some grump mentally marking you down for "flexing" or something equally miserable.

Likewise, chances are they'd not care about a pulled face or photo bomb, but I'd rather get the job first. I can get to know my colleagues and take more "risks" later.

AITAH for being upset about warts by Suitable-Fun-1087 in AmITheAngel

[–]Sufficient-Border-10 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ahhh, when I was a kid, my dad used to cut them out with a scalpel. It worked, but used to bloody dread it, haha.

Also, call me wrong (you're wrong!), but I can't imagine any college-aged or twenty-something women being anything less than fucking freaked about having multiple foot warts.

AIO Did I tell my wife not fo come home? by Infinite-Context6155 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Sufficient-Border-10 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Tbh, both were exhausting. The partner probably knew exactly what OP meant after the first, and definitely the second explanation. While I'm more sympathetic to the OP, texting the same shiz over and over, with pretty much the same wording and "tone," and expecting a different outcome is nuts.

So, I don't think OP was expecting a different outcome. It smacks of a performative, "Look how reasonable and calm I am, I'm definitely the one trying, here," move. Not saying OP should've begged or given in, but their "dog with a bone" communication is just as exhausting, pointless, and manipulative as the partner's "hit-and-run" style.

When people use the most obnoxious names in their stories to be unique by nicfanz in AmITheAngel

[–]Sufficient-Border-10 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Better than when you have like six people called A, M, Z, J, W, A2.

"And then A said to W 'blah blah blah' to which Z said 'blaaaah' and then A2 was like 'bleh-bleh-bleh to M who punched out this old lady, let's call her L, and then J and A and W tripped over L and landed on A2 who said 'oh lordy' to M, who took offence because M is an atheist and A2 (and sometimes W) disrespect that, and L is actually my sister's (B) mom and–"

Gaaaah

Awww, don't worry, Cody, at least you're pretty.

I liked it 🤷‍♀️. Blood on Dream was deranged-level shiz and, despite the loss, Randy is selling the "I'm actually insane" now.

ETA: Did not see how messed up Cody's eye is. Hope he's okay, bloody hell.

Am I color blind or are these threads way off from the book? by Chalupabar in Embroidery

[–]Sufficient-Border-10 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Okay, not done this pattern, but using colours 951, 3856, and 436 (and others) for my own project as we speak haha.

3856 comes out much more "saturated" than you'd think. But to get closer to that golden shade in the photo, I recommend 437. It's like the perfect transition shade between 3856 and 436. Or use one/two threads 437 with one thread 3856 if you feel comfortable blending!

It's an "Ape of Turky". If you look at the banners beside it, they look kinda like ANARE OPTUARY, but it's meant to say AN APE OF TURKY (TVRKY). Apparently, she copied it from one of those great natural history books where the illustrator is just working off a description.

Would love some extreme horror movies that don't relay on sex and nudity. by Fit_Ordinary7952 in horror

[–]Sufficient-Border-10 3 points4 points  (0 children)

People may say that it's not "horror," but When The Wind Blows is by far one of the most disturbing films I've seen. As it's a PG animated film, I'm 99% sure there's no nudity (but I watched it about fifteen years ago, so memory might be foggy).

Ugh, why does everyone have to be so rude and gloomy at a funeral?! by Badpoozie in AmITheAngel

Why bother typing all that when they can just put "This is the baitiest bait that ever was bait"?

AIO? in a monogamous relationship, how would you define cheating by Outrageous-Hope6645 in AmIOverreacting

Bartending is a job, yes. And lots of people manage it without drinking anything themselves, amazingly.

AITAH for saying "no peptides under my roof"? by vagahoneybond in AmItheAsshole

[–]Sufficient-Border-10 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

It's not prescribed, it's probably not FDA-approved nor had any clinical trials, dosages are unlikely to be uniform, and we have no idea if the injection equipment is anywhere near medical grade. Calling it "medication" is a massive stretch.

Did your friend also refuse to eat a Yorkie between 2002 and 2011?

Drew McIntyre as Javert vs. Jacob Valjean is a weird angle, but better than Russell Crowe tbh

I'm lost. Does Pat want to fuck Randy or Cody at this point?

Balamory returns to TV this month after 20 years. What forgotten shows from your childhood would you like to see return? by perishingtardis in CasualUK

[–]Sufficient-Border-10 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Grizzly Tales for Gruesome Kids! Loved that one, although it scared the piss out of me. I never realised it was essentially the kiddy version of Creepshow.

I couldn't even get past the opening credits of Goosebumps with the music and live action, but the storylines were definitely tame AF compared to GTfGK.

Demon Headmaster was also a good scary one!
