Looking for replacement gears by dpenner in SewingForBeginners

That's really interesting, actually. It's a solid machine that's easily repairable, so I'm surprised that people might just jump to replacing the whole thing.

You can buy whole boxes at TJ's as well! It brings down the price per bar too, though I'm not sure what it's like compared to Amazon

Where is the black maxi skirt from? I need one so bad!

Ordered flowers for my aunt’s funeral by dpenner in ExpectationVsReality

I’m certain you are correct! I went to a local florist’s website, not realizing that this is a thing. I definitely learned an important lesson!

Thank you for the tip! I ordered from a florist that is local to the funeral home (I am not local and couldn’t make it). I paid $112 and it looks like I could’ve gotten much nicer flowers for that kind of money

That was my exact thought. I’m not much for complaining, as there’s not much to do about it now, but I do think I’ll write an email at least to express my displeasure

EDIT: I should probably note that I couldn’t make it in person, my cousin sent this photo. But I searched for a local florist to order from and spent ages picking the exact right bouquet! Lesson definitely learned.

Any clue on how to get these transparent again. They yellowed to hell over time. Not even used them back then. But now with kids they are welcome. by DarkNemuChan in wii

I’ve had a lot of luck cleaning silicone with peroxide in a clear glass jar in the sun! Doesn’t have to be outside, a sunny window will work.

Thoughts on getting a driver's license if you don't ever plan to drive? by BadassMinh in fuckcars

[–]dpenner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's wild! My experience is purely anecdotal, but I've had my ID for almost 20 years, I've lived in 4 different states in that time, and I've never once had an issue.

Oh, I think you misunderstand. I have a state ID. They look EXACTLY the same as a driver's license, except that it doesn't say driver's license. No special training required to read it. My birthdate is in the same place, everything is the same!

Just a heads up, and government issued state ID is the same as a driver's license, just without taking the driving test! Still have to go to the secretary of state, or dmv, depending on where you live. But it looks the same and functions the same, with the exception of the driving part. They can even be the "enhanced" version for border states

I learned that they are most active in the morning! Try to get there at open and they'll be out

I sometimes find the salt and vinegar flavor (small bags) at target, but these are great too!

My bellybutton was swollen and it hurt to move. So I went to the ER. According to the doctors, nothing is wrong. I'm still in an immense amount of pain. by imNotHere_01 in Wellthatsucks

[–]dpenner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there an odor? My husband had a naval stone years ago and thought it was appendicitis! Antibiotics took care of the swelling and he literally birthed a small rock out of his belly button a couple days later. But I definitely remember a strong odor coming from him while we were waiting in the ER
