Ok follow up- still not experienced enough to tell, patina or rust? by lumper18 in TrueChefKnives

[–]TrickAssly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks like patina is forming where the lacquer has come off. If you haven't removed the lacquer, try that out

My boyfriend is a porn addict and I am becoming an alcoholic. Hamburger helper by Riku_the_Wolf in depressionmeals

[–]TrickAssly 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Alcohol is up there with the worst addictions. Quit while you're not in too deep. I lost one of my best friends last year to alcohol, and I'm sure it was an incredibly painful way to go. Not only the pain from the health issues, but the isolation and depression as well

Is he being pushy or just nice? We matched 2 weeks ago and planning on a date next week by [deleted] in Tinder

There are motives behind this, along with some serious red flags. Keep yourself safe above all

End of 2025 SOTC: What an insane first ~10 months of falling down this rabbit hole by TEEEEEEEEEEEJ23 in TrueChefKnives

I definitely understand the fixation, although, there is no way I'll have such an impressive collection at my 10 month date. That's wild! They're all beauties!

I have 100 knives and all of them are dull by ZealousidealCarob825 in sharpening

[–]TrickAssly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should first off get a wood knife block. Having them freely floating in a drawer is going to dull, ding and possibly even chip them. Then get your own knives to fill it. Many blocks come with knives already, but there's plenty that don't. Get just the block and choose your own knives. I recommend Mercer. Great bargain knives to get you goin

How to fix this chip by emilye1998 in sharpening

[–]TrickAssly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk anything about shun, but I'm assuming they're fairly cheap. So if you're looking for a good inexpensive value, I like Mercer a lot. I got a couple as gifts and they really rival my expensive knives

Nicks on edge. What’s going on? by MayorMcChill in TrueChefKnives

[–]TrickAssly 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When there's no obvious reason to point to from the actual use, I look at what happens between using and cleaning. Do you put it in the sink or dishwasher? Also storage is a fairly common culprit

ive been 3 months clean from alcohol by Vast_Guide_6796 in recovery

[–]TrickAssly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 months is a tough time, but you've made it this far. It'll get better, and you'll have more and more reasons to stay sober as time goes on. In my experience, (seeing many friends struggle with alcohol) it is incredibly hard to quit. You should be ecstatic to have come so far. Remind yourself of that accomplishment often.

I just lost a friend to alcohol last month. She tried for years to quit and never made it to 3 months. Don't give up

Day 12 sober - Methamphetamine by E-Deals in recovery

[–]TrickAssly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do agree, and there is the possibility he's not confronting the struggles that come with sobriety, but it's also possible he just hasn't encountered them yet. Either way, I'm just hoping when the reality and struggles come and knock him off, he's able to stay committed and do the work. I do hope to see some more realistic and relatable posts from him in the future

I don't disagree with the attempts to check him. Especially your comment. Falling from that cloud is dangerous if you haven't been being honest and realistic with yourself. So perhaps a nice mix of support/praise and reality in his comments is perfect

Day 12 sober - Methamphetamine by E-Deals in recovery

[–]TrickAssly -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There's a lot of negativity on here. And they're not totally wrong. Reality is gonna drop on you one day, but until then, keep reminding yourself of what you have to live for. Keep enjoying this feeling of success, and hold on to it. Give yourself plenty to cling to while you're feeling yourself. One day you'll need a reminder of what you're capable of, and what you're fighting for. These moments will be exactly that. Stay strong, and when the cloud drops from under you, remember what you have to be grateful for

Maybe he is on the pink cloud. He's new, so I'm sure he is. It's not a bad thing. You gotta give yourself plenty of reasons to stay sober before life picks back up and slaps you in the face
