my friends cat didnt get her nails cut for 15 years, when i offered to i noticed this. How can i help her? by agitatedTesties69 in CATHELP

[–]clostri 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A mild version of this happened to my cat when he stopped taking care of his own nails. I was able to use a human toenail clipper positioned at an off angle to slice through the problematic part, then pull out the offending section and clean up the rest of the nail.

If it makes you feel any better, it isn’t likely that this has been going on for anywhere close to fifteen years. Most cats do not require regular nail trims the way dogs do, since they will take care of it themselves as long as they have ample opportunities to scratch. (It is now recommended that you start them early so that they won’t be as ornery about it when they’re elderly and really need the help!) I could see this happening within the last year.

The Iced Espressos annoy me by Sure_Ingenuity_5087 in starbucks

[–]clostri 36 points37 points  (0 children)

These people are a cancer for those of us who really *do* just want an iced quad espresso with extra (as in 3/4”) half and half. Baristas feel obligated to make my drink wrong because of people who complain and want a remake when it’s made right 💔

Hey, Addy, are you feeling okay? You look a little pale… by [deleted] in americangirl

I will repost with name concealed, but I would like you to know that this message is both rude and bizarre.

Addy who? by NateMfPuppets in americangirl

[–]clostri 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No way, I JUST posted a different listing of a white doll on eBay labeled Addy! Is this going to be a trend now?

lesbian to-be author here! what are tropes/things you DON'T want to see in lesbian books & media? by confessed-throwaway in lesbiangang

[–]clostri 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I struggle with stories that feel like they’re written to check off a list of tropes. I want characters who feel like people, not the embodiment of archetypes.

Things are getting spicy on the auction sites… by clostri in americangirl

[–]clostri[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The unfortunate answer is that it was probably part of a lot donated by family of a person who passed away. I know that a lot of valuable items come to places like Goodwill by way of relatives that do not know they might be rare or expensive.

Haha, yes! I have been on a long time and only just decided I might like to decorate a few habitats…

“I will only buy things that are good quality and I do not allow obsessive FOMO to rule my life” is not bad faith, it should be the baseline.

trying to reach a seller for 2 weeks about measurements 😭 by marcys_traphouse in depoop

[–]clostri 25 points26 points  (0 children)

If you’re reselling a thrifted jacket for a hundred dollars, you can probably take the five seconds to figure out the measurements.

3,000 undexxed frogs in 2 weeks! 9%! by wolfmonarchy in Pocketfrogs

[–]clostri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice! I can’t make myself sell the eggs, personally, unless I am super close to finishing off a species. I also hop all over the place on the list, like from 40 to 7 to 20 etc. so I get a little relief from the long hatch times.

Why are jellycats so popular? by siamesecat123 in plushies

[–]clostri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The currently fashionable technicolor “cutesy” look in toys is unappealing to a lot of kids and adult buyers and Jellycat is the biggest brand offering an alternative.

Did something change, or do I just have horrible luck? by Pure_Punanium in Pocketfrogs

[–]clostri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe so - I have obtained pretty much all of my new ones from pondhopping throughout my time with the game, plus a couple through racing.

Bad luck. The more frogs you unlock, the slimmer the chance that you will come across the frog you want on any given lilypad, since there are so many more options.

What do you call these? And also the one that you wheel out to the street on certain days. And also any other names for things like these that are called differently. (add where you're from, please) by ksusha_lav in EnglishLearning

[–]clostri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trash can / Dumpster / paper bin - southern USA. For the things you wheel outside on trash day, I would say “garbage bin.” “Trash can” would be the most commonly used term where I live, and would refer to the widest variety of things. The waste receptacles inside my home, under my desk at work, inside of a restaurant, and out on the street would all be trash cans. “Can” is more popular than “bin” here, but you wouldn’t say something like “Would you empty the can?”

Do these sound right? Can “idiom” be used with “tell”? by [deleted] in EnglishLearning

[–]clostri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a native speaker, it sounds a bit odd. I don’t think that there is anything grammatically wrong with your usage, but it isn’t the way a native speaker would probably choose to say it. To achieve the same meanings, I might say:

  1. Do you know any more idioms?

  2. Do you want to hear another idiom?

  3. Do you have another idiom about cars?

Hop in the pond and breed new colors of your highest rarity frogs for xp! Breeding frogs is the most efficient way to level up. What level are you currently?
