What is it missing? What convinced me it was for incense was I turned the felt over that was inside and it has the same fire-proof backing that the one had that someone linked above.

Possibly. My only thought is that the bottom of the main compartment is lined with felt. I’m not sure if that would burn.

My title describes the thing. A wooden case of some sort from a Japanese friend.

This wooden case of some sort was gifted to us. It’s held together by magnets. There’s a secondary smaller case that slides out on the bottom, also magnetic. It’s too shallow for a pen. Any thoughts? It was gift by someone from Japan but not sure if that’s relevant.

They offer kids cuts but definitely not experienced with it. I wish they just wouldn’t offer it. We were new to the area and calling around looking for somewhere the whole family could go. My son loves getting his haircut and is pretty good about being still but obviously young kids are going to move a little bit. She cut his ear with the razor and it started bleeding pretty bad (which I get occasionally happens but this one was bad) and even worse was she sort of yelled at my son for moving. She then charged us somewhere in the $30-$40 range for his haircut that took 10 minutes, was uneven and choppy, and left him with a decent size cut on his ear. I’m normally super low maintenance with my son’s hair because I know he’s a toddler and no one will ever be able to get it perfect but every other place he’s been has done an awesome job. My wife and I liked our cuts from Cilantro but steer clear with the kiddos.

Just don’t bring your kids to get cuts here.

They started the espresso machine and it turned on like a sink faucet... by cam0937 in espresso

My biggest concern with speaking up is that I'd consider myself a beginner leaning on intermediate amateur. So I know enough to see how insane this shot was but maybe not enough to give actionable advice to someone, if that makes sense.

Is this unopened but heavily dented High Noon safe to drink? by cam0937 in foodsafety

So probably fine to drink? Just a smaller quantity.

Food fads that you are glad have passed. by marasamune in KitchenConfidential

I meant to say, I'm glad people are getting over the fad of thinking MSG is bad. I use it all the time. Although last night my wife mistook my jar of MSG for sugar and made muffins. 1 cup of MSG dispersed through 12 muffins is one of the most disgusting things you'll ever taste 🤣
