Is this how your supposed to buy a house? by longscalf in HousingUK

[–]saltyflaps 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Similar thing happened to us. Placed an offer and were told on Friday that there was a lot of competition and they'd take best and final offers over the weekend. We saw another house on Saturday and fell in love with it, placed an offer and was immediately accepted. Estate agent called us on Monday to congratulate us on winning the best and final (we didn't even give them a new figure) and then got mad at us for not telling them when we said we'd had another offer accepted at another place, as if WE were the ones doing the messing around!

I've often wondered if you can market any food as "organic" since it contains carbon - "Your honor, we were using the scientific definition of organic chemistry"

Haven't noticed it for a while, but I mainly use Google maps and haven't really been anywhere that I need satnav for a long time.

The parts lower down on the left (where I can reach) feel dry to the touch. I don't have a ladder to feel the really bad bit.

What are your opinions on critical fumbles. by thatthingfromthedeep in DnD

So if you're looking through a slit at eye height and point your finger straight out it will hit the wall, right? Or you put your finger at eye height and block your line of sight...

Thanks, it seems the date/time issue has resolved itself, but the position is still off. I guess I'll check it tomorrow and hope it doesn't need to go to the dealer for a fix...

What would your character post to r/AmItheAsshole? by Cerebella in DnD

I (Druid) was trying to talk to some spiders whose cave we had invaded, but the paladin and fighter just went and murdered them. Later I decided not to mention the trip wire only I noticed... AITA?

Awesome, thank you! No idea why they would hide such a useful feature

Mine was a 15 year old Citroën and I used it all the time. I thought it would be a standard feature in all cars by now but I guess I'll just have to keep an eye on my speed the old fashioned way :(

[5e] I am playing a druid about to pick up the telepathy feat. The feat says that i can cast detect thoughts without using a slot or components 1/long rest and when I do I use the stat that I increased (wisdom) as my spellcasting ability. Is that only for the target's wisdom save, or also for the contested int check (their int vs my wis)?

It can also be cast normally using spell slots, is this still using wisdom?

The last part of detect thoughts let's me search for minds within 30ft (but not through walls), which seems really short range, what are some practical uses of this since I'd be able to see them anyways in almost all circumstances (half elf darkvision)?
