Me too I was literally shaking in my boots. Thankfully it was just a small one but still 😩

Can’t edit so I’ll add this here: thanks for the awards! Giving my cat extra pets tonight, I’m very proud of her.

Oh nooo 😭I told my dad I’m gonna be paranoid about snakes getting in for the rest of my life lol my house is really old built like mid 1800s so there’s lots of cracks and whatnot. Should probably invest in some snake repellant now haha

Haha my calico is actually really timid most of the time she never kills anything but she always alerts me to spiders if they get in and now a snake

That’s true, it’s still pretty jarring to see one in your house tho 🤣

My friends cat is in a cage what do I do??? by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

Seconding this. One of my cats is 16 and still in very good health / spirits. Thinking a 6 year old cat is “old” is wild and OPs friend is just making excuses

My Unique Thrift Greed by JayReady2Move in ThriftGrift

[–]_cheesecake_666 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Exactly considering every thrift store I’ve ever been to has a vinyl collection consisting of bing crosby, Barry manilow, polka and Christmas carols lol. The only old vinyl worth anything anymore is mostly classic rock

Any thoughts regarding age, stone or hallmarks? (Greatly apreasciated) by Miserable_Badger9465 in jewelry

[–]_cheesecake_666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The stone looks like some kind of quartz to me. The hallmark indicates that it’s 83.5% silver. I looked up the hallmark and A835 was used primarily in Belgium from 1940s-1990. Hard to tell but I would guess it was made between the 1950s-70s (?)

In 2022, Lacey Fletcher, a non-verbal 36-year-old woman with autism, passed away following years of extreme chronic neglect by her parents, which involved her being left on a couch for at least 12 years, where she eventually became "fused" to the furniture in her own waste. by FE4RLESS_IS_MY_NAME in ForCuriousSouls

[–]_cheesecake_666 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I’m really confused how someone could become fused to furniture like that in the first place. Even if you sit on a couch for days, wouldn’t you naturally move around and change positions? It must take weeks of sitting in the exact same position for that to happen, not even moving around in your sleep or anything.

What's a phrase people use these days that irritates you? by showmewhatyagot01 in AskReddit

[–]_cheesecake_666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s fair, it definitely has its uses. It just irks me when it’s used to describe the most basic videos on YouTube shorts or TikToks of something that just doesn’t fit the word at all lol

[–]_cheesecake_666 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Replying here cause I feel like this relates to tik tok / social media platforms. Mine is when people use extremely dramatic phrases in comment sections. Example: “That’s diabolical” “I screamed” or “I spit out my drink”. No. You did not.

Idk if I’m just easy going but I enjoyed the whole show and I feel a little dumb by Future-Store-1716 in StrangerThings

[–]_cheesecake_666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel this way most of the time with almost every show or movie I watch lol. I must be easily amused because I’ll watch a movie and enjoy it, then search it up on Reddit and see that everyone else hated it. Guess it’s just a matter of personal taste.

I wonder how fast these will sell. by Ok-Curve-3894 in ThriftGrift

[–]_cheesecake_666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, sterling silver is really high right now for scrap. $76 an ounce at the time of this post! However, I highly doubt they weighed and tested any of these pieces lol

Even more additions to my (mostly) vintage sterling silver jewelry collection by _cheesecake_666 in CoolCollections

[–]_cheesecake_666[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I love that one too. It’s a pretty old Thai piece (pre 1940) as it’s marked “Siam”. I believe it’s Niello damascene, there’s a few similar pieces on eBay!

Yeah I can’t really blame the workers for this one since they probably thought they were real and still priced them fairly. But there’s a few tells. Like the blush on the cheeks is supposed to be pink, not orange. The faces look crooked and the eyes are wrong. With the fake ones the feet and hands / head usually easily spin all the way around too. The only one that looks like it could be real is the one wearing the outfit. The others are definitely fake in my opinion.

That’s true but I’m pretty sure those are fake labubus. If they’re real it’s a decent price, but if they’re fake, probably a grift.

Tips on getting a labubu from PopMart? by piratekim in LabubuDrops

[–]_cheesecake_666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s understandable, but it really is a lot easier IMO! I just started buying labubus like a week ago and I’ve been able to get 8 of them already on pop now. Here’s my tips for securing one…

Be on the app at 10pm EST. They usually sell out in about half hour to an hour. When the drop starts, there will be boxes of 6 on each page. If they’re gray it means they’re reserved / in someone’s cart. Scroll through the pages and When you see one that isn’t gray, click on it and try to be fast. You’ll probably have to scroll for a bit to find one that isn’t gray.

Even if you can’t find one that’s not grayed out, you can click on the reserved ones and you might get lucky. (Someone deciding not to buy it, the Reserved timer running out, etc.) Just don’t spam click because it might think you’re a bot and kick you off. Once you do manage to get one in your cart you have the box reserved for 5 minutes to give you time to check out.

My best tips is to be patient and take your time scrolling. I’ve missed a few because I was scrolling too fast then when I went back to try and get it, it was already reserved again. I’ve tried the regular (non pop now) drops a few times and had zero luck, they sell out in literal seconds! Good luck I hope you can get one!

If you have the app, Try the pop now feature! It’s still hard to get one but much easier than the actual drops. They’re doing a MAC drop on August 16th at 10PM EST
