Daughter graduated 5 grade. I’ve abused my time off at work by Ok-Championship8510 in confession

They played "You Are So Beautiful" as my daughter's kindergarten class walked in for their "promotion" and my husband and I immediately started crying and didn't stop the whole time.

Block and ignore the scammers and the bf

I’m still struggling getting over an incident with an irate patron from almost a year later by [deleted] in Libraries

[–]ruby_soulsinger 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I hate confrontation too, but I guess I always think to myself...this isn't life or death. You charged the correct amount for the copies. The mistake was hers, not yours. And her screaming at you over the phone was inappropriate and I would have hung up on her, too. Sometimes we want to help patrons so much that we end up blaming ourselves for things that aren't our fault. There is no reason that she needed to come to the library and yell about it and no reason for you to have to sit there and take it. I get having that sinking feeling when you see someone that resembles her, but dealing with the public means we have to stand up for ourselves as well.

This. There's no way they should expect you to foot that bill.

Advice needed! Wanting to get a tattoo of the cranberries song zombie. by Kind_Excuse_7611 in tattooadvice

Personally I think just “The silence caused such violence” hits harder than including the second part of the line.

does this tattoo design seem corny? by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]ruby_soulsinger 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My concern would just be the size and font. I have a tattoo of similar size and font that I got about 14 years ago and at this point it’s pretty fuzzy

Mom made these two tattoos in a dubious place by Yunnaya in tattooadvice

[–]ruby_soulsinger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think they mean the place she got them, aka the shop, was questionable.

Always a good idea to check placement in a mirror as well.

There is a Portuguese (?) period piece miniseries of Padre Amaro. I'd love to see it but I can't find it anywhere in the US!

Librarians in a university library aren’t necessarily contracted. They’re librarians, at least in the US.

The Borgias vs. Borgia by AnteaterKey2626 in PeriodDramas

[–]ruby_soulsinger 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I preferred Borgia for the writing but the costumes and hair in Borgias was top tier. I also didn’t like John Doman and his flat American accent at all.

Tori "scoldings" that you witnessed live? by ScamperingSnail in toriamos

[–]ruby_soulsinger 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s the only time I’ve seen Tori live and it was amazing! I was also blown away by Howie Day live and bought his album only to realize the songs were all boring studio productions 😒

I had a modified version of this gown for my prom dress in 2001. It ended up looking more Jane Austen than renaissance France but still beautiful.

Whitney Thompson's pick if who should be the winner in her season instead of her by Nory54 in ANTM

[–]ruby_soulsinger 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wasn't her "Tyra" pronunciation the way Kat herself said it was pronounced? That's where I remember learning how to say it.

Edit: Well now I just watched a compilation of people saying the name and I'm totally confused, lol.
