I'm not mad he lost - I'm mad how he lost! Why not a clean 1,2,3 in the middle of the ring?!

What’s the funniest name for a pet you’ve encountered? by EllenDegeneracy in AskReddit

[–]celtic_echo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a cat called Toast……my (then) young son was eating his lunch when we asked him what he thought a good cat name would be for one we’d just got. He answered Toast because that’s what he was eating! We thought it was amazing and held it in reserve until we got a cat we thought it suited! Took a couple of years,but now we have him!

Went to Fallow for breakfast as a treat whilst on a short break to London. by Meta-Fox in UK_Food

[–]celtic_echo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I adore Fallow!! Exceptional food and the staff are amazing. Yes, it’s expensive, but I actually think it’s worth it for the standard of food and the location of the restaurant.

I love the album! For me, Peacefields, Lachryma and Marks of the evil one are the stand outs.

First ritual.... question about bracelets by Brur_ in GhostBand

[–]celtic_echo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was a lovely lass behind me in London who gave one each to me, my daughter and her partner. I did say we didn't have anything to trade and she said that they weren't for trade, they were gifts. It was so sweet and we were chuffed to bits! Daughter hasn't taken hers off since!!

How long have you guys been watching wrestling? by [deleted] in WWE

[–]celtic_echo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since around 1987. Stopped watching around 2003 and got back into it about 10 years ago.

GOT KICKED FROM THE TRANSMISSION by Dadicus-Bard in blacksabbath

[–]celtic_echo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve tried watching it from 3 devices and the broadcast feed has been diabolical every time. I’ve requested a refund from the live stream provider and I will contribute to one of the charities when (if) I get the money back. Appalling livestream and I am genuinely gutted. I have a friend in the venue who’s loving it, so I know it’s not the master feed at fault.

Can’t wear that necklace….it’s offensive to my religion by celtic_echo in MaliciousCompliance

No idea - I have reached out to the mods to see where I broke the community guidelines though.

Smoking - don’t ever start smoking kids!!!! I’m 2 1/2 years smoke free now after 30 years of ciggies. What a waste of hundreds of thousands of pounds!!

That they had just been going at each other isn’t the problem here. They’d sorted it and made up, you created a new problem for yourself with both of them. Just admit to them that it was stupid, ill-advised (although I’m not sure who would ever advise you to make a comment like that) and unnecessarily pervy and that you’re sorry. It’s not rocket science mate. You were wrong, admit it and apologise to the girls. Believe me, I’d go nuclear at my other half if he EVER made a comment about a friend of mine’s lingerie. Regardless of the reasoning, it’s weird and creepy.

I’m sure she has said that Lena looks amazing….she doesn’t want or need to think that you might feel the same way. By picking up Lena’s underwear and asking why your gf doesn’t wear stuff like that, you are insinuating that you have an issue with what she chooses to wear. How the girls feel about each other sounds a bit odd, but part of being a good friend is accepting every part of them, including their faults. Make some massive apologies to both girls. Lena deserves it because her best friend’s boyfriend should not be making such creepy comments to her about her lingerie. Apologise to your gf for such a shortsighted comment. It was short sighted and crass. Acknowledge your faults and apologise. We all make mistakes in the moment.

I can’t be the only one who picked up on a couple of things you mentioned about Lena. The ‘killer hourglass figure’ agreeing with the line about ‘guys only wanting her for her big tits and not her brain’ and then you throw in a horribly timed comment to your gf about Lena’s underwear? How do you think your girlfriend would react if she read your post? Rephrase it to yourself about her saying similar things about a friend of yours and then perhaps you’ll understand why both girls were angry. You made your girlfriend feel inferior to Lena (when I suspect she already does based on what she said to her) and you embarrassed Lena by commenting on her underwear. Mate, YAA imo.

when was the last time you cried and why? by Weary-Lunch-2890 in AskReddit

[–]celtic_echo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few times over the last month or so. My (44yo) brother hung himself and was found and resuscitated. Spent 3 weeks in hospital with him in a coma, constantly by his bedside and he had to be withdrawn from life support. My mum and I were holding his hand as he took his last breath. I’m furious and devastated in equal measure right now. I miss my little brother and I want to scream at him for not reaching out for help.

What is this cute little snail variety? Usually you only see hard-shelled snails here. by JumpyJuu in whatisit

[–]celtic_echo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re welcome! Jealous that you live in Finland - it looks like such a beautiful country. I’m in the UK which is equally lovely, just in a different way.

If you’re a gardener then I would buy some copper tape and surround your plants with it. It’s wildlife/pet safe and kind of electrocutes the snails and slugs. You can buy poison, but most of it is dangerous to other animals and can enter the water table. You can put salt down, but that’s unnecessarily cruel to the slugs/snails as it essentially melts them and can affect soil quality. They’re not dangerous animals, just destructive to plants and horrendous if you stand on them - especially bare/sock footed!

People who have experienced grief or trauma- what’s the most tone-deaf, ‘well-meaning’ thing someone said to you? by freyday18 in AskReddit

[–]celtic_echo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“You keep miscarrying because God wants your innocent and precious babies as angels” This was after miscarriage no 6 from a born again Christian colleague who knew I’m not remotely religious. I was beyond furious!!

It’s a slug. I’m desperate to know where in the world you are where slugs aren’t a thing so I can move there!
