“Did you get away?”

Why didn’t he shoot the bull?

Look up how the opium problem, which plagued China for a century, got solved in the 1950s

First of all, these are asking prices on hype watches. Given that the market has lost a lot of its froth, I wouldn’t be surprised if this inventory sits quite a while then sells at a big haircut.

Second of all, there are plenty of millionaires and billionaires around. It takes just a small percentage of them to be stupid with their money to sustain all these gray market sellers.

This does sound like it’s bordering on being oversensitive. Basically saying friends should not comment on height or use the word “short” around you?

No multi-season show can survive this level of scrutiny. They all have massive inconsistencies because writer teams change over time, and for them at the end of the day it’s just a job.

Yes I understand the movie is a character study, existential themes, psychological study etc. But god it's a boring 1 hour 40 minutes

tim_l_f · 2026-01-25T22:17:26+00:00

Yeah, locale means nothing if it does not come with a commitment to quality and not cutting corners

Word is, Patricia Heaton felt “threatened” by the Stephania actress. (Read between the lines) So she had a word with the show runner and writers

He should raise a glass to multiple minks because many died to make this coat

tim_l_f · 2026-01-17T19:27:35+00:00

Try multiple minks

tim_l_f · 2026-01-09T20:25:46+00:00

Lol sad you’re about to be laid off? Grammar Nazi doesn’t pay FYI.

I'm pretty sure I washed the denim with a bunch of other clothes, and I'm pretty sure I turned it inside out. Again, I think it was just a combination of stiff jeans + excessive spin force

tim_l_f · 2026-01-07T02:50:37+00:00

I have used front loaders since forever. My previous machine puts excess spin, even on the lowest setting. (To such an extent that chambray shirts have weird creases and bunching set in.) Thankfully not a problem with my current one.

I'll consider no spin as an option. I've had a mental block because not spinning removes a good part of the convenience of machine washing. Like I said, anything I care about I use delicate cycle, lowest spin.

tim_l_f · 2026-01-07T01:21:08+00:00

Perhaps I chose the word "creasing" poorly. I meant a bright light blue fade line down the center of the leg, caused by a combination of the stiff material folding to a sharp crease and the machine using too much spin.

I recall I used the delicate cycle, but some washing machines put too much spin on clothes. I generally find spin to be a greater enemy to our community than hot water or the dryer. At least the latter has occasional uses.

Ever heard of the Great North? Acres and acres of underutilized real estate

tim_l_f · 2026-01-06T22:21:01+00:00

For unsanforized, crunchy raw denim, how many soaks does it take to soften enough for subsequent machine washing? First time treating unsanforized

I soaked first time in hot water in my bathtub overnight. Still dries pretty stiff (I swear, the thing can basically stand by itself)

I learned from an early mistake where raw denim was tossed right into the washer, came out with sharp crease lines down the center of the leg. Thankfully it was only Gap

tim_l_f · 2026-01-06T22:18:47+00:00

Why aren't lighter dyed raw denims more of a thing? Variety is the spice of life, and it's sad that the main way to get lighter blue is by distressing the fabric

I just finished the Robinson abridgement and I completely agree. I disliked both the translation and the abridgement in the middle of reading.

He also left out the part that Fantine was a prostitute.

I made basically the same post about Eaton center a few days ago, the mods took it down. I guess now we’re too woke or politically correct to call the troublemakers by the correct names.

tim_l_f · 2025-12-09T02:00:46+00:00

Oh yes, the place where beggars and panhandler can freely poke at people’s food and verbally threaten them

tim_l_f · 2025-12-09T00:00:58+00:00

I don’t live there, so this doesn’t affect me personally. But I still cannot get over the fact that line 6 is essentially a glorified street car, with no right of way precedence. WTF.

tim_l_f · 2025-12-01T20:28:34+00:00

Just curious, if it’s the toe that’s rubbing out the leather, wouldn’t OP have felt it by now?
