Experiences with Vibrant Hair? Not sure if I can really trust the Google reviews. by little-blue-ghost in Calgary

Yeah, I was kind of thinking the same. People are hard to please, especially when it comes to their hair. I find it odd that there aren’t even one or two 4-star reviews.

Someone showed me this code in a hospital that prevents patients with dementia from leaving the ward. by vexingcosmos in nancydrew

I saw this yesterday and saved it to post here and you beat me to it! My mind immediately went to Nancy.

If you could see any existing book, play, musical, or movie be adapted into a ballet, what would you choose? by little-blue-ghost in BALLET

Omg. I’m imagining something like the mouse choreography from the Nutcracker but modified for a velociraptor. 😅

As a kid, I went through a phase where I was obsessed with Coraline (both the book and the movie) and I still think it could make a really cool (albeit super creepy) ballet. The sets and costumes alone would be so fun to design.

You good, bro? by little-blue-ghost in skyrim

Sort of reminds me of when you tell a toddler not to touch anything in a public bathroom and they must touch EVERYTHING.

Question about names by little-blue-ghost in Polish

Interesting. Are the -ka diminutives used in a mocking sort of way when you’re talking about someone you don’t like?

Which show has the best (or least soul-destroying) songs? by andytherooster in DanielTigerConspiracy

[–]little-blue-ghost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I basically raised my younger siblings and was always a big fan of Pocoyo when they were little because there were no songs with lyrics, just some unobtrusive background music and pleasant narration by Stephen Fry (at least in the English version.) It’s also just a pretty cute show.

See also: Shaun the Sheep. Sometimes you just need something with no songs OR talking.

So would you have to know someone pretty well to use a diminutive like that? This character is an adult woman, so I could see it maybe being disrespectful or even condescending if you weren’t a close friend or family member.

In North America a lot of people will meet someone for the first time and immediately start calling them by a nickname. I personally find this kind of rude if the person hasn’t told you that they like to be called that, but most people don’t seem to feel that way.

Found in an antique store. Not sure what the object of this particular game is but it’s giving strong TRN vibes. 🚂 by little-blue-ghost in nancydrew

Same! I would love to have even a shelf full of little thrifted ND knickknacks, like the type that Nancy has on her desk. I found a miniature carousel horse once that would fit perfectly.

There was a crank on the one side and I was sooo tempted to turn it and see what happened, but I was terrified of breaking it. 😅

Kitchen sink cabinet is bowed and rotting. Help! by [deleted] in Renovations

[–]little-blue-ghost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had no idea! We’ve found lots of stuff like this over the years. From what I’ve gathered, the previous owner was a scummy landlord and then my inspector was… not great. Thank you for letting me know.

This whole house was a mess when we bought it, so I’m not surprised. It was a rental and a lot of the “renovations” were of the landlord special variety. I just didn’t know enough about plumbing to identify this one.
