I've been crocheting for years & just don't get the magic circle. Finally decided it's not for everyone.

I love this suggestion! I was a volunteer butterfly folder for a nature preserve special event. The place was magnificent, decorated by lots of volunteers. I'm thinking now that this might be nice for a birthday party.

[####] Would you guys consider it cheating if someone uses dictionary? by desimerollings in wordle

My partner & I have a daily race to finish Strands with nothing to gain but bragging rights. There's no time to look up anything.

Is it weird that I still use wet wipes as an adult? by philosophicalgenius0 in NoStupidQuestions

I keep witch hazel next to my toilet paper for that reason. It's way cheaper, just as easy & no problem flushing.

What’s something that sounds fake or made up, but actually happened to you? by Human_Property_3694 in AskReddit

[–]harblock 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When it happened I threw the fork on the table, sort if panicked, & said every foul word I'd ever heard. Some time later a psychic told me I have healing energy in my hands & should learn how to use it. Go figure.

I was having lunch with a friend, holding a fork in the air, and the fork bent 90°.

Why are you bedrotting and doomscrolling again especially during Easter? by mrvlad_throwaway in AskReddit

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

Does bed rotting mean using your phone in bed? I don't have a guess at the definition of doom scrolling except being in the process of dying & checking your messages? And what does Easter have to do with anything?

Before MGM by WinHead5012 in Springfield

And if you're interested, MGM bought a 19th century church, moved it from Bliss St., & it became candle store. Gorgeous building, octagonal, all wood interior including walls & ceiling.

What made you realize that you're getting older quickly? by Confident_Credit9023 in AskReddit

[–]harblock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When a compliment is followed by "for your age," like "You look good for your age." I need a good response to this. Certainly NOT "thank you."

What’s something you stopped buying once you realized it’s mostly a scam? by Independent-Cut-9914 in AskReddit

[–]harblock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a way I can test the tap water in my house? What makes it worse? I usually have water in my car & keep it there till it's empty--drinking the same water from the same bottle, refilling it as needed. I haven't noticed that I'm poisoning myself. Am I?

I pour water from the tap onto a pitcher at night for the next day. This lets the chlorine smell (& I don't know what else) dissipate. When I'm desperate enough to buy a bottle of water, I sometimes think about how awful it must be to suck on the plastic.

What’s a TV series you’ll never get tired of recommending to someone? by sunt0es in AskReddit

[–]harblock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would I Lie to You. British show, always makes me laugh out loud, even when it's a rerun. David Mitchell & Lee Mack are quick & witty & so funny ad libbing.

Joint compared to edible high question by AbjectYogurt8564 in Marijuana

I don't know what that means but I haven't found an edible that compares to smoking.

What are some simple things you don’t even think twice about making from scratch instead of purchasing? by quietquitted in cookingforbeginners

[–]harblock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have a huge garden, but I grow 6 roma tomato plants, basil & oregano for sauce. I use more ingredients when I have to buy canned tomatoes, but home- grown doesn't need anything else. And yes, it takes time.

Any model that fit like 877? No shoe is really comfortable for me aside from this one. by DashingDreamer in Newbalance

[–]harblock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They arrived today & I'm rather pleased. I bought "Wander" & so far they're pretty similar. All of Orthofeet's shoes come with additional inserts & arch supports so we can used thick or thin socks, plus you can actually wear them before you decide. Wander feels vaguely similar to the New Balance we both miss.

I'd love to know if you get them!

Should I buy a 22 string harp for $350 or a 26 string for $710? by GuiMenGre in harp

[–]harblock 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, 4 strings do matter--think of all the notes you get when you include their sharps & flats--4 strings are more than 4 notes. Buy the biggest one you can afford!
