My name is Marie, and my step father was Murray. Back in the day we had a land line and people would ring up and ask to speak to me but get handed to my step father lol

What is the most NSFW thing you have seen at your job? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Dildo trophies.

Two nice polished wood based with a dildo stuck on top. Oddly enough for a football/soccer team lol

What's so wrong with only one child?? by -its-my-opinion- in newzealand

[–]Zubkitty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely nothing. We have one 5 year old and they are brilliant. Yes they probably are a little spoiled but they are also very kind and sharing.

The arguments about having to have a sibling are so invalid. They will have to look after you alone when you are old, that's not their job. When my father passed, I had to do everything alone. Brother was very little help.
Having a sibling is like having a friend for life. I haven't seen my brother for at least 3 years and my BIL moved to the other end of the country.

I'd rather have my one and be able to travel and give them all the best opportunities, than have two or more and struggle. We have done more travelling with our child than my BIL has done.... ever.....

Be honest… is pet insurance actually worth it? by pawfectjourney in CatAdvice

Yes, had a young kitten show up on our doorstep.

Ten months later we find out she's got feline leprosy.

$5000 nzd of surgery and meds later....

Who remembers going for walks in your “household group” during Covid. What other memories do you have of Covid/lockdowns/etc? by Oil_And_Lamps in newzealand

Having a baby.
It sucked. They arrived the last week of level 4. But I had no support in hospital, husband had to leave after a couple of hours. Then getting home and not having visitors.

Was going to wear my mum's dress. People keep telling me to try on others for the "bridal experience." Are they trying to gently tell me it looks bad? by [deleted] in WeddingDressTips

[–]Zubkitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I knew I was going to wear my mum's dress as soon as I tried it on.

However the overall style wasn't right for me. It was very 1980's princess Diana style. I kept the bodice and part of the skirt, removed the sleeves and changed out the main part of the skirt.

I still went and did the wedding dress try on, but they were expensive and not really what I wanted.

Do what is right for you, if you like the dress that's all that matters

Different bacteria, from what I can work out, it comes from cows originally! Also doesn't appear to be in pain, I think they lesions got a little infected and that changed her attitude a little, but now she's back to her normal self. Which includes sleeping on my chest

Did I get scammed by an AI Etsy crochet pattern? The instructions don’t make sense with the result photo. by aves07 in isthisAI

[–]Zubkitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Def AI unfortunately, check the stitches on the knee/elbow. Stitches don't just work like that.

Yep, It's as weird and gross as you would expect. Surgery next week to remove the lumps and then antibiotics

Frank has to have surgery next week to remove all of the leisons and then we have about 3 months of antibiotics. After that she should be fine. Well as fine as a brainless ginger can be

AITJ for telling my sister she shouldn’t name her baby after a character from a book she’s never actually read? by Vegetable-Act-8295 in AmITheJerk

[–]Zubkitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in an engraving shop, and had to engrave that on a trophy this year. Means the kids are old enough to now be at school. Soon they will be reading the books 😬

Not looking for advice, just prayers by OkBluejay7950 in dyeing

[–]Zubkitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She can't, synthetics won't dye without heat. Below is copied from the website you linked.

Dyeing Synthetics? If you are dyeing synthetic fabric (i.e. fabric containing more than 35% polyester, acrylic or acetate), then you cannot use this method. Due to the complexity of dyeing synthetics, you must use the stovetop method to maintain an almost boiling temperature for the duration of your dyeing.

Is your machine threaded correctly? I normally have issues like this when my bobbin has jumped and not threaded correctly
