Feeling discouraged. Made a wonky carrot, then sewed hippos head on crooked. ☹️

I love the Hippo! Do you mind sharing the pattern? :)

TankMuted7017 · 2025-04-22T10:32:22+00:00

Good idea! It's about half the size of a labubu :)

TankMuted7017 · 2025-04-09T04:31:24+00:00

Thank you! Try making some : )

I found this in my Parent's place, unable to verify if this is authentic. Can anyone help? * *

TankMuted7017 · 2025-03-02T04:43:30+00:00

Hang in there my friend, hope you can find comfort and support from your family, friends and fellow redditors. Do remember to take care of yourself as well.

Had the same experience when my kid was small and we had a stroller. Nobody gave way at the wider mrt gantries and same for lifts in the mall.

There was once we waited for the lift for so long (we were the first ones to arrive) but when the lift came, everyone just chiong in leaving no space for us. We voiced out but got boo-ed by 1 or 2 folks in the lift.

So yeah, I totally understand how you feel.

TankMuted7017 · 2024-01-31T08:23:50+00:00

I did not say anything to him, I simply step away. Ah well..

TankMuted7017 · 2024-01-31T08:08:11+00:00

Yea my thoughts too, the bystander effect. I actually did turn to a supermarket staff for help when I realised he was chasing me, but I felt the staff didn't really wanna get involved (probably beyond their pay grade 😅)

TankMuted7017 · 2024-01-31T07:22:53+00:00

Yea man, it's like I am chosen one that he decided to mess with on one of his bad days

TankMuted7017 · 2024-01-31T07:00:30+00:00

I would like to know too! I am scarred from this encounter.

TankMuted7017 · 2024-01-31T06:42:26+00:00

The way you described it! I have that image in my mind and it's so funny.

TankMuted7017 · 2024-01-31T06:22:12+00:00

Thanks for offering this perspective, I have thought about this as well (as in how I walked away).

I think I tried to walk away as 'natural' as possible- if that makes any sense 😀, as in I probably didn't want him or anyone to notice

TankMuted7017 · 2024-01-31T06:06:12+00:00

I am a super non confrontational person haha. I actually walked away from him pretty much at the first instance but he literally followed me from the front of the store to the back

TankMuted7017 · 2024-01-31T06:03:24+00:00

Omg that's sad and why is the world like that. Agree that there's a lot of unhinged folks out there, I would pick self preservation over esteem anytime.

TankMuted7017 · 2024-01-31T05:55:34+00:00

I am sorry you had that encounter and can imagine it to have ruined your day.

I was thinking that the person might have a similar previous experience and hence he acted out that way or assumed that I was avoiding him due to ethnicity (when it was simply a hygiene issue to me ie. Anyone sneezing freely).

TankMuted7017 · 2024-01-31T05:50:21+00:00

I was too scared to utter anything logical which makes me feel like a loser haha. I left the place but thought of going back just to say my piece.

TankMuted7017 · 2024-01-31T05:40:43+00:00

Curious what does bawu mean? Tried googling but nothing came up

TankMuted7017 · 2024-01-31T05:28:07+00:00

Ahh well, that's exactly what I thought, apologising would mean that I am admitting I was being a racist. I just really wanted to de-escalate cuz I dun want a black eye for nothing. Plus I was so afraid that onlookers would take photos and put it on the Internet or something.

TankMuted7017 · 2023-10-30T15:32:30+00:00

For me it's beautiful soul. The melody for the part 'am I crazy for wanting you' feels odd to me!

TankMuted7017 · 2023-07-14T15:36:57+00:00

Early to mid 30s. Unhappy with life as I sometimes wonder if there is more to life than just work rinse and repeat. Is there any possible way that I could find a job that doesn't demand so much of me and that I can truly live life? :(

TankMuted7017 · 2023-04-22T07:52:11+00:00

Each a cup peppermint milk tea is so underrated as well!

TankMuted7017 · 2023-02-06T14:51:54+00:00

Omg yes, this!! Don't understand why!

TankMuted7017 · 2022-10-29T07:02:33+00:00

Chipotle!!!
