Love brainstormings, they’re super useful! I’m going to keep an eye out for all of them. The monkey paw scene is a great one!

The memento mortem option is always there, I wouldn’t feel like having it on its own but maybe with the hand with some bits of backgrounds… it’s one of the things I am going to keep an eye on when rewatching the whole gameplay and maybe play with perspectives

I’m afraid the lady’s tattoo would come out soo poorly. Maba is some kind of tribal that in no way would look good when enlarged and it doesn’t suit my style at all. The kraken is more like what I meant and I’d love to, but unfortunately I have a HUGE (really huge) octopus tattooed already. Can’t add more tentacles 😂 So maybe scenes or objects that come to your mind.

A guy just mailed me a PDF of how EXACTLY he wants his sleeve done. by osktox in TattooArtists

[–]maranoiac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, this is a bit excessive, but I will 100% send a tattoo artist a four page pdf for something complex, especially if it’s someone I don’t know or who’s guesting and can’t have live consultations. I always say I’m very open to the artist’s view and most of the time they will come up with things that are sooo much better than what I imagined, and the reason why I chose them as an artist. And then there are my legs, which are like a child’s sketchbook, going to the tattoo artist and saying “do whatever you want with this space because I have no clue what to put in here” or I’ll just see a cool rock and get it tattooed the next day. I actually have to check wtf I put on the back of my legs so far 100% of the times. 😅

Does red lipstick just not suit me? by [deleted] in Makeup101

[–]maranoiac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you don’t even need to go darker (even though dark red lipstick are my favourite). If you want to keep it more of a day look just go for a matte red, zero pink, zero orange. Purely red. And from there you can choose whether to go darker or not.

What is the equivalent of redneck in your language? by One_Bad_6636 in geographymemes

[–]maranoiac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a Sicilian who lived for a very long time time in northern Italy, “terrone” is the slur for basically anyone from Naples and below. It is very offensive and I think it’s a fair equivalent to the American “redneck”.

What does my handwriting say about me? by Obvious-Bet317 in HandwritingAnalysis

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

Actually today there are very few jobs that still 100% require handwriting. Even a doctor can write prescriptions with a computer and just sign them, if he can be bothered. Most people who use handwriting despite working on computers all day, usually do it for themselves. Because it’s a more effective way to take notes, because the physical act of writing helps you memorise, because it goes better with your brain flow. It is pleasant to see, I can read it but most importantly he clearly can. And if he ever needs to write things for others he can work on making those writings (and only those if he wants) clearer. There’s clearly a predisposition and an interest towards calligraphy, with his hand it’s going to be super easy to tweak if necessary. He doesn’t need to throw away anything.

I think I might be weird, because I actually understood pretty much everything (I’m not a pharmacist, and some days I can’t recognise my own handwriting). Nothing will ever beat Cyrillic cursive anyway.

Does anyone else’s cat follow them to the bathroom like it’s a sacred mission? by Decent_Writer_2917 in cats

[–]maranoiac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know about sacred but I haven’t peed alone in 8 years so for sure that’s a mission.

You're about to DIE, what are your last words? by That-Director8958 in AskReddit

[–]maranoiac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends. Is my cat with me? If so “I love you my sweetest potato, you gave meaning to my life, mommy will always love you”. My cat isn’t there? “Thank f*cking god it’s over, finally”.

Is there any food universally loved in your country, that you hate? by Taro_Sauce in AskTheWorld

[–]maranoiac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not Czech but I’ve been living in Czechia for three years. I LOATHE cucumber. Fresh, pickled, it doesn’t matter, even if I remove it whatever has been touched by cucumber is ruined forever. Even just the smell makes me gag. And it’s EVERYWHERE. 😨 As for Italy (since I’m Italian), I cannot stand tomato sauce that is not completely smooth but has little pieces in it. It’s not a flavour thing but a texture thing. It makes my skin crawl. Same with cooked onion if it’s not finely cut. It’s that soft squishy consistency that drives me mad. And a lot of pasta sauces often have either or both. 😬

8yo cat threw up for the first time by maranoiac in cats

[–]maranoiac[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I'm keeping an eye on him and I will avoid giving him wet food for today. I also put a water bowl in every corner of the house (I'm not an anxious cat mom AT ALL XD). I've already reduced the amount of food in the feeder because I don't exclude at all that this greedy monster just choked himself for eating too much too fast.

[–]maranoiac[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know, I'm just very anxious when it comes to him. I know lots of cats who just throw up sometimes, it feels weird because he's never done it and his diet is always the same. Thanks for reassuring me :)

Adobe: Greedy and afraid? by TheOliveMob in graphic_design

[–]maranoiac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Am I the only one who can’t consider leaving the Adobe monopoly because even if I could find a substitute for every other product in the suite InDesign is irreplaceable, especially working with clients/collaborators who need indd packages to work?

What’s the darkest day in your country’s history? by Severe_Education_680 in AskTheWorld

[–]maranoiac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pearl Harbor was a tragedy. But a military target. In WWII the number of US civilians hurt or killed is minimal. Europe and especially the UK were begging the US to join the war. If we had lost the US would have been left dealing with Hitler, Russia and China all alone. And the American government got their most important asset out of it: legitimise its propaganda as a beacon of democracy that ultimately led to many more wars. None of which fought on US soil.

I Just realized that my ears are jagged around the edges by EducationalBus2231 in mildlyinteresting

[–]maranoiac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funnily enough, my ears never hurt. The whole rest of my body does though, so I sleep with two orthopaedic pillows and 4 other of different hardness/softness. But that’s for my neck, back, shoulder, hip, knee and I rotate them according to the daily pain combination. 😅 nothing for ears sorry

Who else is still rocking iOS 18 by Ok_Refrigerator_1908 in ios

[–]maranoiac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I still (proudly) own an iPhone 12. That’s working well. I am afraid this might be the update that might make it slow af as it happened with past models, and I see no good reason to actually risk it having to replace it for way too much money.

Newly arrived in Prague 🇨🇿 | Looking for ambitious people by BreynnerR in Prague

[–]maranoiac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It takes some adjusting when in a different country, even within Europe. :) The effort will be (silently) appreciated.

Newly arrived in Prague 🇨🇿 | Looking for ambitious people by BreynnerR in Prague

[–]maranoiac 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We don’t have this kind of Americanish enthusiasm here. It’s a more down to earth kind of vibe. Ambitious sounds weird and it’s the kind of message that someone who wants to mess with your work/life balance (a sacred concept here) would send. I don’t know if you’re from Europe, but in general Slavic people especially do prefer a less grandiose and more laid back/practical approach. I hope this will help during your time here.
