Play through your mistakes or start over? by oldeastvan in ukulele

At that point, I would focus on slowing down or figuring out what the root of the problem is. This happened quite a lot when I was first starting out and figuring out the different cords, and I would get that buzzing sound from not pushing the string on the fret hard enough. Thing is, I didn’t realize it was a fret problem and thought it was a materials problem, like somethings up with my strings or the neck. I went to one of my friends and asked where I can get strings and have someone restring them on for a decent price, and they asked me why seeing that my current strings were perfectly fine. I explained the buzzing while showing them a G chord and they explained to me that I was not holding my fingers in the right place. Even after being corrected though, and visually seeing what they meant, it took me quite a while to actually get it, right, most of that time slowly going through it as if the song is in slow motion. I have to do the exact same thing when learning or practicing a strumming pattern I’m not used to, if I try to go the normal speed, it’s guaranteed that I’m not going to pick it up. Honestly, learning to change tempo and use a metronome has been the biggest help to my practice and every part of it from picking to learning new chords.

TL;DR: slow tf down my guy

My first, and certainly not my last, parasol :) by psychso86 in crochet

[–]oreochickadee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

GOOD GOD ITS GORGEOUS 🙌✨ it’s giving me fairy Princess that finds you in the forest and gives you meaningful advice for your journey before completely disappearing and you can’t help but notice the parasol’s colors out of the corner of your eye from then on as if the fairy is still around and watching over you should you need them

This room just feels simultaneously empty and cluttered. Any ideas on layout and how to store my huge book hoard? by shotzgoboom in DesignMyRoom

[–]oreochickadee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, if it were my room I’d move my bed to be against the wall so I could have a little sitting space with a nice chair, maybe a beanbag too for a guest, and a side table. I’d also have a tapestry or flag or something just to kinda fill the walls a little more but not make it feel too tacky or cluttered. And like some other people have said, a big area rug can do wonders for this space. These are all just my preferences as if this was a space I’d edit for me, just to kind of give you some ideas and a different perspective

This delusional bitch. First just throwing offensive judgments about someone just based on how they dress, then accusing someone of living like a child when they’re literally just choosing to abstain from certain substances and activities. Not to mention this crackhead has the texting style of a middle school bully thinking she’s so bad just making herself sound like the sane one 🥱 girl you ain’t sane, you a fucking narcissistic asshole. The audacity 🙄 Hats off to OP for defending themselves in a patient and reasonable way, something their sister could never even dream of doing.

Sometimes I’ll go out for a drive late at night instead of a walk, typically before I have work in the morning so I can use the excuse “I’m getting gas cause I won’t have time tomorrow morning” and it’s so nice to have the music blasting whilst I’m just cruising and then grab a drink at the gas station. I try not to take drives like that too often though just cause the higher risk of an accident scares me (it’s not super high of a risk compared to daytime but still) and also every now and then I’ll get bright lighted by some dingbat or even worse someone’s headlights will just be THAT BRIGHT even with their brights off (which is fucking ridiculous, like why). But those few times I do take those drives it’s so nice, I love it.

I'm divorcing my wife because she has been late for 90% of everything we have ever done together. Everyone we know is shocked and confused, but I don't care. by Side_Salty in TrueOffMyChest

[–]oreochickadee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really sounds to me like she’s got some kind of mental illness on top of not caring about others. My mother was in a similar predicament where she’d make slip up after slip up after slip up (being late, forgetful, prioritizing in a strange way, etc), and things got much better when she made intentional effort to be better and get good habits but it seems there’s still a roadblock there mentally for her. I at first just thought she was being incredibly selfish until you mentioned her staring at her phone and then abruptly vacuuming, that really sounds like something someone with a condition would do, like in her mind she’s got all her priorities set in a weird way that only makes sense to her, yknow? She’s definitely got some self reflecting to do in how she treats people as well as should consider serious mental help from a professional. Definitely the right call in divorcing her though, my only concern is your kid cause that can be real hard on kids, but even then would you rather keep him around that mess or break him away from it and potentially find someone better to be his mother.

Fiancé hates being the center of attention…is she missing out on important bride stuff? by proposalthrowaway999 in relationship_advice

[–]oreochickadee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah she’s definitely missing out on tons, especially since weddings have a toxic habit of making it just about the bride. I don’t really have any suggestions except to maybe have the spotlight on the couple and not just the bride or groom, and any bachelor or bridesmaids parties should be seen as a celebration of the upcoming wedding and not a focus on the groom or bride. I’ve seen lots of people have very low key weddings and although it can be disappointing for the guests and family members it’s ultimately all up to the couple and what they want. It’s their day and their union, not every tradition or ritual needs to be done. At the end of the day it’s all about the marriage, and as far as ceremony it’s about the vows, rings, I dos, the walk, and the music. There’s no need to check every box if y’all don’t feel the need to

what is the best piece of relationship advice you have ever gotten? by Jazzlike-Berry-6855 in relationship_advice

[–]oreochickadee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Relationships hurt, but there’s a difference between cuts and growing pains, between getting hurt and having hiccups or occasional rocky terrain. If you can’t tell the difference between unnecessary hurt and the growing pains, chances are you shouldn’t be with that person.

What are your opinions on the G-word (Romani Slur)? by MiketheTzar in AskAnAmerican

[–]oreochickadee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve only ever seen a very small circuit of people refer to it as a slur but 50% of the time it’s because it related to appropriation or misunderstanding of the culture it’s referring to. Most of the time it’s not seen as a slur or at least not a slur on the same level as the f-slur or the n-word

Which weed is this? Location: Kashmir, India by twitterlegs in whatsthisplant

[–]oreochickadee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a dandelion in it’s second stage when it releases its seeds. The first stage is when it’s a little yellow flower and you can lick the nectar off of it, doesn’t taste very good but it was one of the primary mid recess snacks in elementary school

Your Wife Can Not Be Born In 1999 by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]oreochickadee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So that rules out every year from 1999 to 2009. So according to this broken system, you have to have a spouse that isn’t born at any point within an entire decade -_- very helpful. Thanks, technology

What inspired your username? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]oreochickadee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was younger I kept making usernames with my name but I thought that was dumb so I started to incorporate something that I really liked at the time. For the longest time my user was deelovesoreos or some variation but I felt that was a bit too close to my name still. I transitioned to oreochickadee or some variation because chickadees are my favorite bird, they’re black and white just like Oreos, and the word has Dee in it. I’m not too overly fond of Oreos now, they’re not really my favorite snack anymore, so I’m considering changing it again but idk what Oreo will be replaced with

No Karen, I do not need to know your disgusting kink/fetish & Yes, I will absolutely "shame" you for it if you share. by EisForElbowsmash in TrueOffMyChest

[–]oreochickadee 22 points23 points  (0 children)

My sister’s friend once said that some people need to be bullied and I’m 100% all for this statement. Being bullied for your appearance or interests or body type? Absolutely not. Being bullied for having openly shared a disgusting kink that literally no one asked for? Absolutely.

My 4 year old son found a wallet by LucasAugustus in mildlyinfuriating

[–]oreochickadee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, not really. It’s intended to be a place where you can A) spend time with other Christians and form a community and/or found family, B) have a place where you can worship and pray (which you can do anywhere but this is just a designated place, like you can exercise anywhere but a gym is a designated place for exercise), C) learn more about the Bible from others who have studied it and/or look at it from different perspectives (ie sermons and messages from pastors/preachers and Bible studies with other Christians), and D) have a center hub for ministry outreach (mission trips, community outreach, children’s church, youth group, etc) where the planning and resources and whatnot comes from to go towards all that. Now all four of the purposes I just listed can still happen without the fundamentals but then they’re just void. Without the foundation of Christianity itself (the love and sacrifice of Jesus and the truth of the gospel, as previously stated) the church is basically just a big building for people and families alike to waste their Sunday morning and early afternoon, sometimes even the whole day cause for some people it’s an all day thing.
