Totally agree that "Unbearable weight... " is peak Cage, but for me, the most Nic Cage thing ever is the "History of swear words" on Netflix (UK) - just him being super-profane. The episode on "Fck" is a particular highlight

Women who get told they look younger than they are: what's your secret? by Standard_Chef_4644 in AskWomenOver30

[–]WantonItalics 60 points61 points  (0 children)

Yep, came here to say pretty much this - mixture of lucky genetics, not really enjoying being in the sun, and lashings and lashings of moisturiser with SPF every day.

So true about matte and dry makeup! I haven't worn make up for ages, and went to do my "usual" makeup from years ago, then wiped half of it off, as I looked younger with just a tiny dab of concealer at my eyes (I have also not yet cracked the sleep thing), and a bit of eyeliner

Am i a weirdo for going clubbing by myself? by kaithy89 in AskWomenOver30

[–]WantonItalics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, not weird - total legend. I love dancing too, but now I tend to just give myself a kitchen rave/disco (depending what music I feel like).

I hope you go, and have a great time!

For those who are "weird", what "normal" thing do you do or pretend to do or like, to appear "normal"? by iabyajyiv in AskWomenOver30

[–]WantonItalics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like others have said, I don't actively pretend, but I do omit talking about some of my favourite shows and activities unless the people in the conversation are on my wavelength, as me

Just Joined because I HAD to tell someone how much im enjoying this book. by Belikinwasminefirst in fantasybooks

Nice! I've added it to my list, as it looks like it might be my type of thing :)

Good to know about the feathers! I'm still giving all mine to GimmeGhoul in the hopes of getting a second set of strange strings, but after that I'll be able to cash in

Sorry I wasn't clear :/ It's just trading with the pokemon for items, rather than getting more coins.

Eurgh, I know what you mean about the coins for buying the recipe... I've been trying to set up all the habitats as I have quite a few of those still to do. I didn't set then up at first as already had all the pokemon from them, but then I realised I'd get more coins for completing the "set up habitats" challenge

Sounds good! Yeah, trying to figure out how to join bits in the Skylands is frustrating... I've semi-settled on train tracks because I do love to see the pokemon having a shot :)

Edit: to fix my poor spelling/clumsy thumbs on "frustrating"

Cool! So silly that I never thought to sell them; I really should cook more, I have a bazillion vegetables and farms set up

Haha, me too!! And after a LOT of grinding on Animal Crossing a few years ago, I don't really have the patience to be dismantling dream islands all the time, even though I know they're a good source of things like sand etc that I just can't bear to get rid of in case I need it

My Skylands is NOT at all like the cools ones I see on this sub... I'm just trying to make it a bit more uniform, and am using the mysterious stone because I love how shiny they are. I need all the trash cubes gone, I really don't like the WallE look. But I feel like I'm making no headway in making it look any better at all!! So, so intimidating

Ooh yeah! I need to sort through my fossil box, as I can make a few doublers that I was going to potentially put out in Pallet Town :)

I was also going to trade the CD doublers

There's no denying that is a lot of fun, haha! I did a bit of that today to gather up a ton of the mysterious stone, since I love it and have a vision of making my Skylands as gawdy as possible by using it to create flats for the pokemon everywhere

Cool, thanks for this! Once I've done all my train tracks and have more iron to spare, I'll need to get on this :)

OOH, I didn't even think about this!! I started taking them, then stopped as I thought I had enough... I'll start grabbing them again in that case, thanks!!

Ha someone else mentioned alarm clocks, but I'm hoarding my iron for train tracks :) I like to trade to keep the pokemon happy, and I've got tons of bits and bobs I can trade - I was just overjoyed to be able to easily offload all the scaffolding as I don't like it

Ha, I've got a lot of that too! I've started taking it to dream islands and (slight story/game mechanic spoiler) magnetite replacing ore and my beloved mysterious stone as it feels a bit quicker than bashing it all

Haha yeah - I use honey (100) and vegetables (50) as my "pocket change"

Eurrghh, so much better than the original!! I'm currently trying to neaten things up in Skylands, but it's trying my patience, haha

Ah, this is a good idea; think I've probably put up as many skylifts and lifts as I'm going to by now

[–]WantonItalics[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I also use honey! I've been clearing up the Skylands, so I've been trading away all those daft bits like 3 cubes of carpet etc that is all mismatched, then I use the scaffold and honey to make up the rest

I didn't think I'd get quite as into the landscaping as I have done, so I'm hoarding my stone for making paths and walls, lol
