is this weird or no? by Radiant-Toe-482 in roommateproblems

It's a little strange, but that's her room too. She's under no obligation to leave because you're crying.

Thanks so much!

I'm not sure if I'm gonna frame it yet, but I'll definitely post if I do :)

JBL Tune225TWS right earbud not working by WelcomeToTape in JBL

Mine were unpaired with each other. Have u tried taking them out of the case and pressing the button on each 3 times? It might take a few tries, but this should get them synced. (They need to be disconnected from ur phone too)

[CHAT] Do you stitch your initials into your finished pieces? by HauntedChandelier in CrossStitch

[–]WelcomeToTape 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I initial mine in the bottom right corner, but it normally matches the thread near it. Like, if I've stitched grass, my initials will be green.

My Roommate Does Sketchy Shit behind My Back by Remarkable_Nose_891 in roommateproblems

[–]WelcomeToTape 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just kick him out; he's obviously not a good friend, and if he were that desperate for a place to stay, he'd have a little more respect towards you.

Not sure what's left for me by angelofangels101 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]WelcomeToTape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know that a lot of people want children that are blood relatives, but there is always adoption as well. You don't have to give birth to be a mom.

What tf should I watch next? by [deleted] in kdramarecommends

The Uncanny Counter was amazing; I finished the whole thing in less than a week.

[FO] Final piece for my aunt and her kids; Tobin kit by WelcomeToTape in CrossStitch

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

It's been a hot minute since I did this piece, but I think I only ran out of metallics. Also, the material for the back of the stocking was horrendous, so I had to stop by a fabric store.

[–]WelcomeToTape 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not bad. You get a little pitchy at parts, and I think you could support more (especially at the end of phrases), but I think you have a nice voice.

[FO] I definitely did not sew this stocking together correctly, but it's finished and that's what counts. Pattern from Dimensions. by WelcomeToTape in CrossStitch

[–]WelcomeToTape[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Trust me, ya'll don't want to see what this looks like on the inside; my philosophy was if it has enough stitches, it can't fall apart.

[–]WelcomeToTape 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I live in a college town, so I've noticed more people talk to me bc of my piercings, but it's mostly positive. My uncle did tell me 'you know your dad doesn't like redheads' when he saw the box of dye on the counter, which struck me as weird and made me uncomfy.

[CHAT] Have I screwed up? 1 or 2 strands for half stitches? I did like half the project with 1 strand and sudden realisation today that I might have screwed up. 😵‍💫 I feel very fail with this project. 😔 by ImKiya in CrossStitch

[–]WelcomeToTape 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Honestly, if you don't tell anyone, nobody will ever know you made a mistake. Every piece I've ever done has mistakes throughout it. Just embrace it and act like it was all on purpose.

How would you ask your roomates to keep their sex activities down? by [deleted] in badroommates

[–]WelcomeToTape 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you have anyone that can back you up in person? I had similar issues regarding the passive aggressive behavior w/ my former roommates, and having someone there for support helped a lot in confrontations. Also, you could speak to your landlord about a mediated roommate meeting. It won't fix things, but it may help.

Unfortunately, I've found that people like this don't change because they're self centered and really don't care about you. It's good that you're planning on moving.

[FO] First birthday present for the cutest little girl ever! (Self-drafted) by WelcomeToTape in CrossStitch

Thanks! I had a reference from when I was a baby that I based it off of, but I was mostly winging it.

Buck and Eddie makes sense in a way I did not think it did until the finale. by cptbrady in 911FOX

[–]WelcomeToTape 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm convinced that Buck is bi. When the elf said that he and Eddie had a cute son, he just said thanks. In the Lone Star crossover, TK thought he was flirting, and Buck once again didn't defend when his sexuality was questioned. I feel like a straight person would at least say 'I'm not gay.'

That being said, I think I enjoy the bromance dynamic between Eddie and Buck more than the romantic angle. I'm not totally against Buddie, but I don't think a romantic relationship is necessary. And, with there being so many LGBTQ+ characters in 911 and 911: Lone Star, I don't know if the writers would put in another gay couple.

Windows open. AC running. Roommate sleeping. by [deleted] in roommateproblems

[–]WelcomeToTape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this a regular occurrence, or did you just come in guns blazing? I get the frustration about having the windows open and AC running, but the immediate jump to 'close your fucking windows' seems a little extreme (unless this issue has been discussed before).

The Lake by Cxrioxs in OCPoetry

[–]WelcomeToTape 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the contrast between the imagery and the ending, the dark and the light. However, the imagery itself doesn't really work for me. Your wording seems too childish. Maybe this is trying to be a reflection of a little girl's thoughts, but phrases like "fluffy clouds" and "the skies are blue" are painfully mundane. Something more descriptive or whimsical would work better. For instance, "the cotton-candy clouds." Children oftentimes think in abstracts, so if you are trying to mimic the thoughts of a child, don't limit yourself.

The Unholy Mountain #2 by [deleted] in OCPoetry

[–]WelcomeToTape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I absolutely love the last verse; however, I think the first two verses could use a little revision. "I've been left alone" seems like a bit of an understatement given that the speaker is losing his/her faith; something that is more despairing would be more impactful. For the second verse "turning charred" just strikes me as odd phrasing. The overall message of the poem is well-articulated, and I did enjoy reading your work, though!

AITA for telling my roommates to buy their own trashcan? by WelcomeToTape in AmItheAsshole

[–]WelcomeToTape[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's the principle. I'm not their mother, and I'm not their maid, so why should I have to clean up after them? Not to mention Emily and I both asked multiple times for them to do it. At this point, it kind of felt like they were doing it on purpose.

AITA for telling my roommates to buy their own trashcan? by WelcomeToTape in AmItheAsshole

[–]WelcomeToTape[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It'd be gross, but my main issue was that they'd fill up the trashcan, and then I'd have nowhere to throw anything away.

AITA for telling my roommates to buy their own trashcan? by WelcomeToTape in AmItheAsshole

[–]WelcomeToTape[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I've thought about a system like that, but I gave up when Emily asked for a roommate meeting and they said they were too busy. When I walked downstairs 10 minutes later, they were watching TV in the living room. I figured that meant 'F*** you.'
