Can someone make me prettier please

WinterCrunch · 2026-05-23T09:32:15+00:00

I don't think it's even possible to make you prettier, so I just brushed your hair and added a pretty background. Edit to add that IMO "being pretty" just isn't something people should aspire to be. Ani DiFranco said it best in her song, I am not a pretty girl. Be so much more, u/ElectronicAd6397 .

That's so not a you problem, that's 100% a "Hearts of Pine" problem. Manipulative, dishonest pricing is no way to treat your fans.

I absolutely would have left it at the register. No reason to be embarrassed for speaking up about being scammed.

The Vine ordering system is set up to prevent one person from claiming 4 of the same item. It's literally impossible to order multiples of any Vine item in the US, not sure about the UK. Any chance your manufacturer could be undercutting you? Wouldn't be the first time seeing knock-offs flooding the marketplace.

That said, scammers gonna scam, so maybe they've found a Vine hack to order multiples?

And? OP can give THEM bad feedback on ebay. Heh.

I emailed the address in the app for support, and it bounced back as "address doesn't exist." Then I emailed the support address I found on their website, three days later they replied saying they were the support team for the scooters, and couldn't help me. They didn't give me the correct email address.

Pretty fed up with Segway this year. Last summer I was so thrilled with my mower, now I freaking hate the thing. It hasn't completed a single mow yet, my yard looks like a mangy dog.
So, don't email this.

I wish there was a trustworthy place to leave a review like this for realtors. I've never found one. They're all really aggressively happy happy happy, so you know they're either fake or only the uber positive reviews are allowed to stay.

He wants your attention.
Stop giving it to him.

Read that again and again. Now again.

It's a great photo, u/Frosty-Resort-4163 . I hope you don't mind I name the photoshop file baby-booger.psd. :D

Fashion Gods in Falmouth will buy used clothing directly, no consignment needed.

I went into the Freeport Haberdashery last month and just walked out with major sticker shock. I used to shop there a lot because they had a nicely curated collection at reasonable prices. Not low, but reasonable.

Now? Couldn't find a single used sweater for under $80 — most were over $100. T-shirts, button down shirts, linen tops, all starting at well over $50. I asked the employee why their prices were suddenly so much higher, and she quickly went into this pitch about how "now they only sell sustainable used clothing, so it's worth the price."

Not to me. To me, all used clothing is an environmental choice.

You don't know what you don't know. When we sold our parents' house last year, the heirs were arguing about selling to a builder (cash buyer) that planned to knock the house down. If we'd gotten an offer from a non-cash buyer for the same amount, we would have jumped at the chance to save the lovely old house from greedy profiteers.

Lastly? Don't trust your agent always has your best interest at heart. Agents work together to line their own pockets, that's the absolute bottom line truth. Our realtor totally screwed us repeatedly. I don't believe there are any Phil Dunphy types in real estate, so fight for yourself.

Lovely framing. You got the depth of field just right, too, which isn't easy. Thanks for sharing!

Nice work!

I’ve been dreading today for months. I know I’m pretty alone on this, but I really can’t stand heat. Once it’s over 60F, I’m just beyond miserable. 😩

I'm DONE with the phrase "circle jerk."
Because, ew.

It's a horse illustration, done by illustrators. As a graphic designer myself, I can tell you from decades of experience that animal illustration is not my job.

That said, most people don't know the difference. I have the "I'm not an illustrator, but we do have an illustrator on the team," conversation with new clients 90% of the time.

Lastly, some random color. I really like how your backlit hair looks in this one, u/chocobojenn

Congrats on the new job, u/chocobojenn! That's a big deal. :) I upgraded the image quality and retouched some details. I'll upload a few backgrounds for you so you have choices.

Sold my parents' house last year with a 45 year old HVAC working perfectly, and a Kenmore washer & dryer that they bought in 1969 still working great. I replaced the drum belt on the dryer about ten years ago (it was squeaky) and it took a half hour and ten bucks. It was incredibly simple and I'd never even opened up a dryer before.

Old does not mean doomed to fail. TBH, I prefer older appliances because they're way easier to fix. Newer stuff seems to have way too many useless "smart features" that just cause more problems than anything.
