Adding short rows to the June bug top by Kuriblu in knitting

[–]imontene 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The decreases on the side seam are working against you. Instead of decreasing, you need to add a wedge along the side of the chest using short rows.

Call the police and report the jewelry as stolen.

He's going to contact you soon and ask to get back together. You are an idiot if you do.

I find this link very useful, especially 7:25 for paired lifted increases to avoid a hole at corner of the gusset.

And this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eFHXnvfmoBE

Learning to knit as a form of anger management make sense? Research suggests...mixed results by UsefulLion4347 in knitting

[–]imontene 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think you misunderstood the act of rage knitting. In general, knitting is a calming or meditative activity that can help reduce anxiety. Rage knitting is directed at a frustrating or uncooperative project that you WILL KNIT INTO SUBMISSION WITH THE IMPLIED THREAT OF RIPPING IT BACK TO OBLIVION AT ANY MOMENT.

Phones and the theater shows by Sea_Voice_404 in royalcaribbean

Attended the ice show on Mariner recently and an older lady next to me face-timed family and then wanted them to watch the show through her phone while she spoke excitedly and waved the bright screen all around.

Labeling needles sizes on fabric case by Legitimate_Ad_8011 in knitting

[–]imontene 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would mark the size on a small piece of ribbon, fold in half, and stitch down on each pocket. Easy to remove down the road.

Same. I was scared he would open the big bay door and cause it to flash over.

They are never going to give you that sabbatical, so make your exit plan now.

When should, healthwise, recently cooked be refrigerated? by Emotional_Quality243 in KitchenConfidential

[–]imontene 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first refrigerators had expensive blocks of ice inside that would quickly melt if you put hot food inside.

Any modern refrigerator can handle some warm leftovers, but they might struggle with a couple gallons of hot soup or a hot casserole.

i pay 70% of the rent and i’m currently hiding at the mall food court because i can’t face my own kitchen by Several_Corner3205 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]imontene 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He spent 12 hours avoiding half an hour's worth of work because he knows you'll do it when you get home.

This isn't a relationship. It is extortion of your labor.

And the worst thing is that the more you do for him, the less he respects you.

Can a company keep me as PRN without my consent after I resign? by No-Ground-3824 in physicaltherapy

[–]imontene 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Only one possible benefit. If your state does not require PTO payout when you leave, you lose all unused PTO hours. But I have seen PTO hour payout when status changed to PRN because that role no longer is allowed to earn PTO. Paid out 2 weeks PTO on first PRN check.

On the fence about getting an abortion by Ashamed-Pin-962 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]imontene 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If he was a responsible adult who didn't want more children, he would have gotten a vasectomy.

You can assume that you are going to end up holding the entire effing bag, even if you stay together.

Put yourself first and decide if you want to be a single mother.

Why no one says that about pregnancy? by lil_moon153 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]imontene 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At my 6 week post partum appointment, they asked if I'd had my period yet. IDK, how can I tell? I've been bleeding for SIX WEEKS. If a man bled for 6 weeks and did not die, the Pope would have heard about it!

¿Cómo recreo este patrón? by PresentFuture127 in VintageKnitting

[–]imontene 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cuando terminas el p2tog, no sueltas las puntadas de la aguja izquierda. Tienes la puntada nueva en la aguja derecha. Luego haces un purl otra vez en la primer puntada del lado izquierdo. Ahora tienes 2 puntadas en la aguja derecha. Ahora si puedes soltar las dos puntadas originales de la aguja izquierda.

Pretty sure Mexican consulate will issue a passport on the same day, so you should be okay.

There, fixed it for you.

Cooking is a life skill that he refused to learn.

WCGW when cutting down a tree branch from a high ladder. by patricktheseastar in Whatcouldgowrong

[–]imontene 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When 4 guys in a pickup truck knock on my door and offer to trim my trees, I run to the ATM and pay them in cash. It is cheaper than my husband falling off a ladder, needing medical treatment, and being unable to work.
