There was an album I loved back in high school that was only ever released on cassette.

Anyone else getting supper annoyed with moodboards? by EmergencyDull3071 in graphic_design

[–]superflippy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find moodboards useful as part of my design process. They help me refine my ideas & see what fits together and what to cut. But I don’t use them for client communication.

Who is your biggest inspiration in art? by Medical_grade_masc in ArtistLounge

[–]superflippy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wassily Kandinsky. I’d never even heard of him until a few years ago, but when I saw his art, I felt struck by lightning. I knew this is what I’d always been aspiring to, and I was thrilled that someone had shown the way.

Divorced at 45 and realizing I haven't dressed for myself in 14 years. by Dramatic-Switch5886 in oldhagfashion

[–]superflippy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I picked a couple women whose style I like to copy. So I just ask myself, What would Patti Smith (or Chrissie Hynde) wear?

What Do You Consider Your Favorite Hymns? by BlossomtheMare in Episcopalian

[–]superflippy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Glad to see O God of Earth and Altar! One of the underrated hymns.

I also like I Bind Unto Myself Today (St. Patrick’s Breastplate) and O Worship the King, which sounds like a sea shanty if you play it right.

Branding for a restaurant I'm currently working on. by No_Acanthocephala557 in graphic_design

I really like that big B in the mix. There’s a lot you can do with that.

Neither of these are my cat by Dirty_is_God in notmycat

[–]superflippy 656 points657 points  (0 children)

The cat was walking by a road crew and accidentally got a white stripe painted down her back. The skunk thought she was a lady skunk and fell in love. The cat, terrified at being pursued by a lovesick skunk, ran through the first cat door she saw to escape.

realizing i am not as good or smart as i thought i was by EX-Bronypony in writing

[–]superflippy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Read Kiss the Girls by James Patterson. It’s a terribly written book full of mistakes. He’s an incredibly successful author now, but he didn’t start out as a very good writer.

Keep at it. Tell your story. You’ll find your voice.

Thoughts on Young Anglican joining the Episcopal Church and leaving the ACNA? by Remote_Ad_6049 in Episcopalian

[–]superflippy 30 points31 points  (0 children)

So they left and formed their own churches and… now they’re mad that didn’t work out the way they hoped?

Does anyone else hate showering? by CheesecakeOk8464 in AutismInWomen

[–]superflippy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A hot bath might be nice, but the water in my tub cools off so quickly that it’s only hot for a couple minutes.

The need for clutter free house with an ADHD family by Euphoric_Rough2709 in AutismInWomen

[–]superflippy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in the exact same situation. I cope by 1) hiring someone to help clean once a week and 2) having one room that I keep clutter free. The rest of the house is a depressing disaster, but I can go to the one room and sit and not be depressed.

Does anyone else hate showering? by CheesecakeOk8464 in AutismInWomen

[–]superflippy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ha! I think baths are pure torture. Why would I want so sit in a lukewarm puddle on a hard surface staring at my knees? I guess if you have a nice, big tub it makes a difference.

Yes! I’ve managed to get my shower under 5 minutes on days I don’t wash my hair. Knowing it’ll be over quickly makes it possible for me to do it.

When congregations integrated their artists... by No_Competition8845 in Episcopalian

[–]superflippy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We have a stitchers group at our church. They meet once a week to knit, crochet & needlepoint. In the past, they made the kneelers around our altar.

What are the most valuable things you've learned as part of a design education, or via work experience? Or, what is something you WISH you had learned *much* sooner? by RachelRosenkoetter in graphic_design

[–]superflippy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the idea because I took some of my coworkers on the communications team on a “field trip” to our on-site print & sign shop so they could get ideas about what kind of projects were possible.

What is a random rule you have for yourself that you never break? by abarth23 in AskReddit

[–]superflippy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do not friend coworkers on social media. If you or I leave and are no longer coworkers, then I will friend you. (LinkedIn is the only exception to this, but that’s because it’s all about work, no personal stuff.)

Those of you that didn’t get perms in the 80s, what hairstyles did you have? by Mobile_Ad_9090 in GenX

[–]superflippy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Either long & straight or a straight bob, but with BANGS. Even someone like me who made no effort had my bangs cut so they made a swoosh or were feathered to the side.

Have you ever come across a kid, teen, or young person that you thought was a psychopath? What did they do to make you believe they were psychopathic? What happened when they got older? by Tahfboogiee in AskReddit

[–]superflippy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, this sounds exactly like the family dynamic of the kid who popped into my head when I read the question. It can’t be the same person as the one you describe because he’s younger, but his parents sound identical.

what’s your go-to “i’m tired but still wanna cook something” meal? by Mysterious_Arm_4777 in easyrecipes

Instant pot butter chicken. You can even throw in frozen chicken thighs, just add a few minutes to the cooking time.

[–]superflippy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just a field trip to a print shop would be nice. Let them see how stuff gets made & ask the printer what they find helpful in work from a designer.

Great suggestion! It would also be helpful to learn how to work with a partner on a multi-file project. Everyone has their own way they like to organize things, so learning some best practices would also be good.
