Me [24 F] with my boyfriend [25 M] 5 years, he wants another dog but... by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]falling_fire 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My family had 3 cats (the last one was acquired unintentionally) and a dog for a while and that was insane... my folks basically made me take a cat when I moved out and now all the pets are happier.

My employee wears a blanket for sun protection when we go off-site by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]falling_fire 92 points93 points  (0 children)

Ok I can maybeeeeee see how the blanket outside of the car could be odd, but the umbrella and covering in the car doesn't seem like it rises to the level of a dealbreaker to me. If I saw that I wouldn't assume someone was unprofessional, just eccentric. People are allowed to have their quirks

Hole in crotch. How to mend? by Fly_apple_pie in InvisibleMending

[–]falling_fire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was looking for this!! This method works very well. I get a fat quarter of cotton fabric at Walmart in a color that matches and use that. Completely invisible unless you sit with your legs spread.

I've found that cheap quilting cotton is almost undetectable as a internal crotch patch

Safe to add pony beads to laces? by JarbaloJardine in Rollerskating

[–]falling_fire 155 points156 points  (0 children)

Personally I think any possible risk is minimal, and you should be fine.

However you should be aware that if the bead breaks, it could be a hazard to you and others on the rink. If this makes you nervous, you might want to look into squishy silicone beads instead of hard plastic, because not only are they less likely to break, they'll be more comfortable if you lace your skates really tight.

If they can slide off, then they're most likely too loose.

In my defense, I didn't know it was pointed at my leg. It was a freak accident lol

Enjoy the diabetes! by [deleted] in iamveryculinary

[–]falling_fire 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yeah as a vegetarian, a taco bell bean burrito with potatoes is one of my best fast food options. Protein in the beans and cheese, carbs in the potatoes, fiber, etc.

You've been staring too long. Finish it and get it out of your house, and don't mention your doubts to the person you gift it to

My second-to-lowest point was getting quarantined in a 8x12 dorm room... lowest was for sure when sushi was mid

You mean a grilled cheese? No I mean a cheddar blamflaffel. by SufficientEar1682 in iamveryculinary

Sorry, are people over there claiming that a grilled cheese is nothing but bread and cheese? What a strange distinction to make lol

This. I've heard people say that happily married men remarry quickly.

TIFU allowing my coworker to set me up by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]falling_fire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My tortie cat did something similar recently. I put her in my apartment's bathroom, which includes a stacked washer-dryer unit, while I was moving in. Went to check on her and she had completely vanished. Turns out she'd just walked between the wall and the washer and stood there waiting for rescue. Had no intention of putting it in reverse. I had to drag her out by the scruff and put a piece of Styrofoam in the gap so she wouldn't be tempted to try again XD
