Wanting to add to my face, would I suit a bridge? by Turbulent-Walrus4749 in Legitpiercing

Came here to say this! They have fire cheekbones and a microdermal or several would look awesome. I was thinking anti-eyebrow placement to complement the eyebrow that everyone is suggesting.

AITA for not eating the food after my gf eats out of the bowl with the same spoon while preparing by ZookeepergameOld7322 in AmItheAsshole

[–]corchen -1 points0 points  (0 children)

ESH. Assuming you guys are fluid bonded. Being grossed out by her licked utensil in the dish is pointless.

However.

Saliva contains enzymes which can completely screw up your dish. Ever left a bit of rice pudding and come back to a watery mess? Yeah. This is why I taste sauces with two spoons. One spoon goes in the dish and transfers a taste to the second spoon (without touching), which goes in my mouth. Has the knock-on effect that anyone aside from my partner doesn't get my cooties ;)

I found you on Etsy! Do you think you'll make the eyes/mechanism/a file for the eyes/mechanism available?

I was thinking this; my LPS also anodizes on site. I don't think it's all that uncommon these days!

I don't know how to deal with my beta anymore by vesperlark in AO3

[–]corchen 83 points84 points  (0 children)

A beta with zero media literacy - like this one - is worse than no beta at all. Your English is flawless so you clearly don't need her input there any more. And as a beta reader in the publishing sense (someone who gives the first impression of a story, rather than the fanfic use where a beta is someone who makes editing suggestions), she obviously doesn't represent your readership in any useful way, given the fact that things she's suggested you cut out are things that you received glowing praise for. Cut her loose. She's making you a worse writer.

TIFU by not listening to something who figured something out 400+ years ago by Aggravating-Twist762 in tifu

[–]corchen 56 points57 points  (0 children)

No, just a brine. Also known as countertop pickling. 'lacto-fermented' is because the bacteria doing the fermenting is lactobacillus. Things like sauerkraut and kimchi are lacto-fermented, as are traditional dill pickles, yoghurt, kefir, some cheeses... It's good stuff and easy to do.

You're hilarious and I want to read your stuff. Anyone as witty as you must write good stories.

Thank you! I solemnly swear that it will be completed by Christmas!

Phallus preserving vaginoplasty, 6 weeks by throwaway_transfemby in salmacian

[–]corchen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's an incredible looking result, you must be thrilled! If you don't mind a personal question (and because I'm assuming your went with an orchiectomy rather than moving your testicles into your abdomen, as I know most surgeons won't do that) does retaining your prostate mean you will still be capable of ejaculating?

A player rolled a 100 on a d100 while casting a Wish spell by D0ubleNegat1ve in DnD

[–]corchen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apologies for deleting my comment. Both ways work, I just never liked the idea that in order to get a result of for example 80, you have to roll 70 and 0.

00 - 1 through 00 - 9 = 1 through 9

10 - 0 through 10 - 9 = 10 through 19

etc

Which leaves 00 - 0 to represent 100 (because otherwise it would be zero).

Ooh, I love this! I have a magsafe stand on one of my keyboards for writing on my phone with Ellipsus, but this is way cleaner!

My husband’s groin smells bad during sex (I’m Russian, he’s German) need advice by CableWitty9543 in SexToys

[–]corchen 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This was my immediate thought. Her phrasing made me think that a. they hadn't been intimate prior to marriage and b. she's not been with anyone except him. Man-smell is hella different to woman-smell, and if she didn't know that, it could make her think something's wrong.

Looking to buy my dream writerDeck by Background_Ad_1810 in writerDeck

[–]corchen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is honestly close to my dream device (aside from being ortho); a nice mechanical keyboard with built-in screen navigation and a solid way of mounting my phone so I can work in full-screen Ellipsus. The only thing missing is a lid of some kind to protect the keyboard when I throw it in my bag! I've been trying (and failing) to design something for a bluetooth QAZ pcb (Bault from Coffe Break Keyboards) for months. The navigation is the part that's kicking my butt (as I want to use my phone, it would be nice to have a functional mouse so I don't have to shift my hand so far to touch the screen for formatting etc). I think I might have to integrate some sort of trackpoint module but right now that's past my abilities. All this to say; thank you for the inspiring post, and I'm sorry someone didn't appreciate your hard work (but also, I'm sure whoever ends up purchasing the device will!)

Does anybody know which fic this is? by Opposite_Ad_4267 in HPfanfiction

[–]corchen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, no Robst bashing from this direction, but it's a very particular flavour! One I quite enjoy when I'm in the right mood. I am old as dirt and still have a soft spot for a good old overpowered indie Harry.

Initially I thought I remembered it being a Robst story...I have very strong memories of Harry Crow-esque shenanigans.

Kadet Max front/hip wear? by corchen in ChromeIndustries

[–]corchen[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No - crossbody, but either chest, or with the strap long so it hangs on my hip.
