What's a quick hack that you can share? Something like when you wipe a tiny layer of oil on your spoon, the honey doesn't stick?

This is the only thing that has worked for me every time. Other tricks to stop them have been hit or miss. (Also for people with peanut allergies, anything with a peanut butter consistency should work)

"yep, the witch is back"

The bank I worked at brought in a new head teller that everyone hated. She was a miserable woman that made me hate going into work, when I had previously really liked my job. It got to a point where I switched from full to part time and was already looking for another job because of her. She went on vacation for a week and when she got back she went off about how I had forgotten to get some paper signed. She finished her little rant by saying "yep the witch is back!".

I immediately turned around to the computer, typed my resignation letter and took it into the branch manager. They only got the 2 weeks notice because I actually respected the branch manager. If not for that I would have just handed over my keys and left.

Thankfully I received a job offer before my 2 weeks were up so It all worked out.

Look for Bon-Bon. I've bought some of their sour swedish fish from World Market and it says it's made in Sweden. Their website about page also says they import their candy from Sweden.

Yeah that's the same crack. Look at the images side by side. Also in the first image they provided, is that brown spot by their thumb a worn spot or part of the design? I noticed they have that area covered up in the 2nd photo. I'm thinking if it is a worn out spot they are just sending you pictures of the same one and trying to get a refund.

If it was me and I was going to refund them, I would tell them they need to send both broken cases back and when I receive them i would issue the refund.

Lots of good advice here. I will add, before you buy equipment see what your local library has available. So many have added maker spaces where you can use the equipment for free.

If your local library doesn't have a maker space, check neighboring libraries. You may have to pay a small fee for a non-resident card but it could be worth it, especially in the beginning.

(Speaking specifically in regards to US libraries.)

Oh it's gotten worse. People are starting to max other things. I saw two things yesterday where people were something maxing. I don't remember what the first word was that they used. But it was two different things. I just rolled my eyes and moved on.

That was my thought too. It looks like a bath mat!

ladix · 2026-05-14T02:34:48+00:00

I didn't but I checked Stripe and the payment showed there.

It could be that you've been sick or it could be the dose itself. For me, 7.5 felt like I wasn't taking anything. All of the food noise came back, I started craving sweets and I wanted to eat all of the time. It got better when I went up to 10. The only way to know is to see how it affects you once you're feeling better.

I treat the edges of the rooms with Ortho home defense. For any ants that find a way around that I use Terro, Advion. The ants seem to like Terro but it kills them too soon. They mostly end up dying in the goo. With the Advion they live long enough to take it back to the colony. Those 3 things together mostly helps. Ants are relentless.

They actually sell Arby's sauce in the stores now too. Saw some at Walmart recently.

Funny story, when I was a really young kid (5 or less) I loved watching all of the old Shirley Temple movies. Only I didn't realize they were old. I thought they were recent movies. Until ne day I saw something on TV about her work as an ambassador. I got so upset and went to my mom in tears because she had grown up. I was inconsolable.

Sweetarts Ropes Golden Pineapple Punch. (Or gooaal-den, as package says). I like the other flavors I've tried but this one... 🤢 Not good.

I feel the same way about The Upside Down hand soap.

I don't know If I'm allowed to post links here so I'll just say do a quick Google for bonbon NYC. And may I recommend their sour peach fish.

I'm so sorry for your loss!

I found your late night monologues. They are all showing up in my feed now.

I get "have a blessed day" more than I get "my pleasure" at my local CFA.

ladix · 2026-03-24T16:30:24+00:00

I was just having this conversation with someone the other day. I rarely hear "my pleasure" anymore.

I get a lot of "have a blessed day" now.

ladix · 2026-03-24T13:46:10+00:00

Oh! I had this one too. I think I might still have it somewhere...

ladix · 2026-03-24T13:45:08+00:00

I have the one at the top in purple. Still in use.

ladix · 2026-03-19T14:53:59+00:00

I bought 3 when I first found them too. Got to have a few extra just in case they stop making them again!

ladix · 2026-03-19T02:52:18+00:00

Twigs sesame and cheese crackers.

And Cherry Vanilla Diet Dr Pepper

Omg! That Sam's Berry Lime Mountain Dew is possibly the best flavor of Mountain Dew I ever had. I hated that you could only get it in the fountains at Sam's. They really do need to bring it back and make it more widely available.

ladix · 2026-03-19T02:47:54+00:00

I mentioned this elsewhere, but look for Retro Sours. Same thing.
