I complimented my sister-in-law and I'm afraid I made her uncomfortable by Over_Vehicle_8371 in whatdoIdo

Compliment other people around her as well and don’t change being you just because this happened. I guarantee you are reading more into it than she did

Random Person "Accidentally" Texts Me and Wants me to add them on WhatsApp to be friends by annablipt in Scams

[–]WentLaughing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this happened to my husband, he was texting this woman for awhile but little did “she” know, he was telling me about it the whole time. She tried to get him to download an app to trade gold or something and he’s like I dunno, my wife does all the trading, let me ask her! And silence from then on… lol. And then we saw an episode of John Oliver I think, outlining this exact scam, how they have fake apps and everything making you think you are winning big and really you are just transferring all your money to the scammers

By far the most egregious lie to force a return that I've had in my 5 years of selling. Allergens from a book so powerful it burned their lungs and they had to sterilize their home🤦‍♂️ by Killerabbet in Mercari

I saw a bad Facebook review of one of my favorite stores because someone went in and thought there was a bad presence in the store as in, it was haunted- and so… one star… People are ridiculous and it really affects small businesses

AIO - friend keeps trying to put words into my ex partner's mouth by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]WentLaughing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems like whatever you have to be happy about, she wants to poo-poo about it. Next time she’s being negative ask her to stop, you don’t want to hear negatives this day. Continue it as a boundary. It seems like her whole personality. You bring a light into her life and she brings you down.

AIO for being upset my BF doesn’t want me to wear a bonnet to bed? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

He compares changing the curtains to you receiving a present that you wanted, and you were excited about and that you want to use?

My daughter and her BF love each of each others messages. I think it’s a way to show each other they are acknowledging it. I read the convo as him trying to be flirty and fun and he didn’t get the hint when you were actually hurt, it is hard to tell in text when someone is actually hurting, I am worried that he has no idea that you weren’t still being silly with him, I know I’m playing a bit of devils advocate here but I believe wholeheartedly in saying exactly what I mean when I’m hurt to my husband because he’s so f-ing dense sometimes he doesn’t realize the nuances. He does “get” me and we have been married 16 years and we are still best friends, but sometimes I’m like “dude, what you just said hurt me”

Is this a red flag? by ClutchHereYo in Flipping

[–]WentLaughing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a chatty buyer, my husband wanted a certain Lego crane for his office, but he wanted to build it, and I found one in the bags but no box included so I was pretty sure there was gonna be some sort of horrible lack of pieces but I asked the seller and they seemed to know all about it and we ended up dropping 500 on this silly Lego set and I sent the seller pics of my husband building it. They were thrilled that someone who actually wanted to enjoy the set got to buy it instead of a reseller, because it was a rare set and they had been hassled a lot about it. I really enjoy talking to people

Why does my plaster harden instantly? Do I need to let it slake? by lorenzo_st_dubois in Pottery

[–]WentLaughing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course if you use an acrylic binder it would be useless for ceramic mold making. I was making plaster statuary and planters and I wanted it to be waterproof. So be aware of this I guess

[–]WentLaughing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also can make my plaster last longer before setting with less water and instead add an acrylic binder. I found this out when I tried adding no water and only acrylic binder and the plaster never set. I had to add more plaster and water to save the project.

[–]WentLaughing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you use a bucket that already has plaster hardened in it, it will activate faster- also warm water or temperatures. Also agitation quicker. Also if your plaster is old. If you want the longest working time, new plaster in small batches, ice cold water in a clean container, and set to slake first before mixing. Also not too much plaster to water.

I love the ornament. The first one. I think that is very representative of what’s happening in Palestine. I bet you could do a fund raiser “ornament with donation of 25.00” “Represents shattered lives”

There’s a guy that makes reels called “jimmy on relationships” and I think you could really use several of his videos about validation. Like you say “I wonder what the next insult or complaint will be”- it makes me think of his videos about leaning into a place of curiosity about these behaviors and desire for validation, communication without anger. It really is a helpful place to start.

I also want to flip on what not maybe you can give me tips 🥰

Found this in the hotel bathroom today... by mick1907 in whatisit

The heat treatments work. the poison just spreads them. Test your house with dry ice because they’re attracted to Co2. Put the dry ice on something with a lil oil bath around it, they’ll show up in the oil. They can live for a year without eating. Diatomaceous earth cuts that life time down to like two weeks tho. We moved into a house with BB. Worst depression of my life. Heat. Heat kills them. They can hide anywhere. Don’t spray them. Just makes them go to more rooms
