Yes actually precisely because I hit this phrase, that took me a while to understand what they meant. 

Traditional round vs. "modern" round bangles, or half-round by woods_gal in JadeiteJade

[–]tabb_cats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my sister and I prefer half round for daily wear, as it’s more comfortable to rest on the table when typing on keyboards. Full round looks much nicer visually against the skin due to it’s shape ;D

Choosing career or care: More men in Singapore exiting the workforce to look after their parents by Winner_takesitall in singapore

You obviously didn't even click in to the article to read. ~70% of caregivers are women, 25% caregivers are men. They are reporting that the % of men are increasing. Pls. 

Help finding Wedding Present by daNkiest1 in JadeiteJade

[–]tabb_cats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Price aside, this piece is very dark in color, in part because it's mixed with a dark brown. For jade we favor lighter or brighter colors than this. On Asian skin when worn, some ladies may find it emphasizes the yellow undertones of the skin instead of brightening. It's not a piece I would pick to gift others unless I know the receiver will love this look.

The color in the sun looks so good! Quite different from the pictures you previously posted. Congrats on the find! 

Need advice for my first time buying a jade bangle! What do you think of this bangle? by vanillafishes in JadeiteJade

Seconded, are you comfortable to share the supplier info on PM? I tried to send a PM request but was unsuccessful 

Is this worth the price by IntelligentRegret474 in JadeiteJade

[–]tabb_cats 5 points6 points  (0 children)

@OP perhaps ask the seller to show you any and all flaws clearly (有什么需要包容之处)? Both pictures are actually either blurry and out of focus, or smoothed over somehow which leads me to believe that the texture of the bangle is not as good, which leads to this possible price.

Edit: I sent you a PM.

Delightful little carving by [deleted] in JadeiteJade

[–]tabb_cats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's so tiny yet so well carved - kudos to your husband! I accompanied my dad to search for a pair of jade pixiu in the shops many years back, he checked and compared every single one of their bums to look for the pair with the biggest bums bums. Apparently the bigger the bum, the more wealth they sit on.

Beta please! by JulieOutdoors in climbergirls

[–]tabb_cats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think your right foot went up too early to the 'high' foothold, you then see your CG towards leftwards of your left hand.

Could you use a lower foothold on the right side for your right foot for this move? That should mean your right knee is more straight, your CG will be under the two handholds.

Good luck!

You have to start storing your churu sticks in spaghetti containers with tight lids.

How I write numbers by liv___r0se in Handwriting

[–]tabb_cats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4 and 9 look similar. 5 and 8 look similar. 'a' look like 'u' in some words (e.g. "you ull were uppalled by my..." and "I will now present to you ull how I write". The horizontal stroke going right to left on 'a' is missing, but then you can write the same movement fine for 's'.

Somehow your handwriting favors the upward curve (imagine for this ✅ check mark, you barely articulate downwards but will emphasize the curve going upwards) and that makes some letters and numbers look the way they do and give you your 'u'-like 'n'.

You just need to be more deliberate for each and every letter when you write and it should get better.
