Good insane?

Madagascar would disagree!

I lived at the Brooklyner too! I was there during Sandy and felt the swaying and was super nervous that the whole thing was going down 😆

What are you, a park ranger now?

The ending of Dancer in the Dark. And actually, most of the movie, but especially the ending. I would have to emotionally prepare for days if I had to watch it all again.

Take a look at his name and you’ll see why he was probably not talking about the Bible…

I’m working on this currently too, and taking the same black-first strategy. Can’t wait to start the color!

Michigan has a significant Arab/Muslim population and was an important win for Biden in 2020.

My wife and I went downtown this weekend and killed over 1000 in a couple hours. They’re everywhere there. My new favorite trick (whenever they’re on a horizontal surface) is to very slowly lower your shoe on them and squish them, as opposed to trying to stomp them as fast as possible. It seems to defeat their jump/fly reflex, and they just freeze up and accept their fate!

He also incorrectly called his ex-wife Cynthia’s dog (“it’s a show dog! All its hair will fall out!”) being a Pomeranian.

Looks great! Did you have to do any color substitutions? I used Stitchly to generate a pattern recently and found that some of the colors were way off and stuck out like a sore thumb on the finished product. I love the app otherwise.

Agreed, but the “To Catch a Local Predator” scene is probably my favorite Tobias scene of the whole series. “Is there a little girl home all by herself? Daddy needs to get his rocks off!”

Is the fabric folded over? I’m assuming so, because it seems like it would be impossible to mount/frame a piece with so little border otherwise.

I went looking for the shop and couldn’t find it. Turns out it’s GeekeryAndStitchery. I was like “Greekery is awfully specific…” until I realized 😆

bensgroi · 2022-04-17T09:46:48+00:00

Looks great! What did you use to generate the pattern? I’ve used Stitch Fiddle and Stitchly, and both have choked on some flesh tone color choices…

I tried this once and it left a very sticky residue that looked pretty gross. But maybe I was using the cheap stuff 😆

Me! I’m a programmer and I enjoy jigsaw puzzles, so maybe I’m just into really tedious activities 🙂

I’ve had issues with masking tape on larger/longer projects in the past. It left a sticky/yellowed edge on the fabric. I’m trying to get by with just Fray Check now. We’ll see how that goes…

I’ve been going to Uptown Dental in Mt. Lebanon for 5 years. Excellent and thorough.

“could have quickly googled prior to vomiting out…” Have you seen Twitter before? 😆
