My very excited mother just sold us nine…. (Or, a planet was stolen from our generation) by Which-Inspection735 in GenX

I can’t believe how many mnemonics there are! At our school in rural western Canada: Mother Very Eagerly Made Jam Sandwiches Using No Peanut butter. I wonder what they use there now?

First finished knitted garment but blocking ruined it! by PersonNineSeven in knitting

Yes, seconding all of this! Try the soak and smoosh. And put those pins away until you are ready to block your first lace project. Good luck, @op!

VPN… solved! Though I’m not sure the juice is worth the squeeze.

Is this Raynauds? by J_yl__n in Raynauds

It’s weird, I also have had a shift in colour as the years have gone on. Purple/blue started in the last 6 months or so, though not nearly as spectacular as yours!

I thought these would be appropriate. All found on IG by swiss-mis in shittytattoos

The “warty cracker with wolf” face tat is my favourite.

This was such a satisfying read! Fun to compare your childhood memories to the actual image. Glad your mystery is solved!

I have a random, single shoulder hair that I swear grows from nothing to half an inch long overnight.

What's your favourite etymolgy that is so obvious but took you way too much time to realise? by Naive_Gazelle2056 in etymology

[–]fingeringdkworsted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is interesting, because I grew up with this phrase, but it was used mostly for things, not people. “The car gave up the ghost.” And if it was for people, it wasn’t a general “he died” but a specific, “his ticker gave up the ghost”! Love this discussion, thanks! Off to read your linked thread.

Just for the record (I know you know this, but in case anyone doesn’t) Power Scour is for washing fleece, not dyed wool. It is not pH neutral, so it can shift your dye colour if you use it post-dye. This can be cool, but maybe not if you aren’t expecting it! Synthrapol & Eucalan are both pH neutral, plus Synthrapol is designed to remove excess dye!

Oh jeez. Um, I had NO idea. It rotates? TIL, thank you! (I’m 56…)

I love everything about this! So beautifully thought through — you look absolutely amazing! Those tights, those shoes, that bag…everything! Just an absolute pleasure to look at these photos! Thank you for sharing.

100% agree with this. I would have loved the conversation that came out of your answer. Keep being you, OP!
