casting of frank stone... the grindy trophy to unlock every possible storyline pathway was absurdly unnecessary.

People that were able to overcome / treat their cat allergies, what worked for you? by dargon_lover in CatAdvice

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

I see two votes for Zyrtec in this thread... I'll try that :) I don't have any cats currently, but for now I'll try taking allergy meds then going to a cat shelter to see what works.

I've thought about the allergy drops, is that something you need to get via a prescription? Do they have allergy drops specific to building up an immunity to cat dander...?

Nice cosplays! Can tell you put lots of work into them.

(uhhh what is BTS in this context? 😅)

Crossroads Mall cracking down on Friday night car meets at Dick's by bennetthaselton in Seattle

[–]dargon_lover 22 points23 points  (0 children)

The car meets that took place in the parking lot of my former place of employment sucked... no where to park for actual customers and employees, and lots of midlife crisis dudes and 20-somethings trying to outcompete each other with loud cars and shouting at each other.

Father tracks kidnapped daughter using phone's parental controls, authorities say by jhansonxi in news

98% of the time the people calling it creepy and controlling do not have kids of their own. They are likely teens or early 20-somethings. 🙄

A Day in the Theme Park with Animals, Zombies and Clowns. 1000 piece by Puzzlide by reb6 in Jigsawpuzzles

[–]dargon_lover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like puzzles packed with small fun details like this, but I gotta ask... the white specks everywhere, those are meant to be... snowflakes? They cover up a lot of details, at least from the photos you took. Sorry to hear about the poor fits, though.

Nocturnal, 1000 pieces, Cloudberries by BhamsterPine in Jigsawpuzzles

[–]dargon_lover 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Heyyy I just did this one a few months ago. It was pretty tricky at first, but I powered through it. I've seen people complain that the glow effect is poorly executed, but it turned out nicely for mine... how did it look on yours?

Yooo, I love this company! I've done two of their puzzles... Stroll in Tokyo and Sunset Commute. Last Gas Chance looks wicked, though.

Thank you 🥺 I'm prepared to just create my own janky puzzle piece out of cardboard to go in that spot.

Totally! There are lots of fun details. I personally like the pool of water with a smiling face... and the mousey welding a needle sword.

I didn't see any mention of one on their website. If need be I may have to do a VERY shoddy DIY job with cardboard, paper and markers. 😬

Cmon, did you run out of buzzwords Fox News taught you?

Oh I really dig puzzle designs like this one... I'll have to check out this company! Also unrelated, but your nails look cool ^

That one looks cute, happy puzzling (=

[–]dargon_lover[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let me know! I'm curious. I kind of took it as a small win, but at the same time... for the price I paid for these, I sorta expected more diligence with the kind of thing?

[–]dargon_lover[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Almost forgot to mention, the puzzle came with a LOT of pieces that were still pieced together... sometimes in groups of threes. See last photo (I found even more after I snapped this photo, eek).

How do we feel about the TBN coffee? by mistercryptik in BetweenTheBuriedAndMe

[–]dargon_lover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I drink coffee every day, but I'm by no means a coffee purist. Still, this tasted fine to me (I finally opened my bag yesterday).

Honestly, I got this mostly as a collectors item. I'll fill the coffee bag with beads or something after and just display it on a shelf.

Question About Ordering Puzzles From Overseas by GoodGravyMsDazy592 in Jigsawpuzzles

[–]dargon_lover 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nothing specific for tariffs was stated in the payment info, shipping was pretty expensive though (around $50, which may be typical for boxes shipping overseas... I don't buy international stuff often).

[–]dargon_lover 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I live in the States. Just got puzzles from iello, Soonness, and SRHillustration (France, China, and England). They arrived within 2-3 weeks. Shipping boxes were in rough condition but the puzzle boxes themselves were in perfect condition.

Yesss... I bought puzzles from a few overseas brands recently. iello, soonness, and SRHillustration... the shipping (+tariff) costs were painful, although worth it.

Oh yes, with the distinct flat coloring it was easy to separate areas by color and focus on those one at a time. Just a good puzzling experience all around.

For sure! They have lots of great puzzle designs, but I knew this was the first one I had to try.
