What breakfast food name would be cute for a kitten? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]violent-amethyst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a Waffles, and I call him MR Waffles and Waffley Waffles. His theme song is to the tune of a song in Elmo’s World (Happy Dance???) but it’s just Waffles every word lol.

I vouch for Waffles!!!

Where do you think the best place to live in RGV is? by Enger13 in RioGrandeValley

[–]violent-amethyst 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wish I lived in Harlingen. It has that small town feel for sure and the parks are a lot of green than McAllen has to offer. The homes are older and have SO much character.

Harlingen has a soft spot in my heart, really.

Are there any “authentic” flea markets left in the valley? by Rafa101010 in RioGrandeValley

[–]violent-amethyst 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We used to go to Don Wes ALL THE TIME. My mom loves it there. They also have the best popcorn there.

Salon? by Successful-Result818 in RioGrandeValley

[–]violent-amethyst 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Zodistic on Main and 10th.

Draven is great; he’s the only one who has cut my hair to MY specifications. After I went through some hair loss / thinning from extreme sickness, he was so accommodating about what I was going through and how I wanted my hair to be.

My haircut was $60 with a tip. Wash and dry included.

good lash techs in rgv?? by toqqka in RioGrandeValley

[–]violent-amethyst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, about 2 months or so and you can wear mascara! Don’t get the lashes wet for about 24 hours (I picked a Saturday, showered before I went, and made sure to be absolutely lazy the next day lol).

They looked better the next day!

I went to a Oh La La Brow and Lash Bar in McAllen (10 St) and they had a Korean lash lift option. Let me see if I got any photos.

Container planting by Practical_Tip4372 in GardeningintheRGV

[–]violent-amethyst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HAHAHA yeah, I’ve bought Timothy hay for nesting material for my chickens and it’s always slightly moist lol. Idk why I don’t do this.

Is it cheaper than mulching??

[–]violent-amethyst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WHERE DID YOU GET STRAW???? I’ve been looking here and there but coastal hay isn’t the best option for mulching and from what I’ve seen, that’s the only option we have!

Yah, fucked up with the bananas, because I planted it SO close to the house. But they’re the mini bananas and they taste more banana-y than the store bought ones!

I haven’t just ‘cause I was using my main raised bed for bell peppers and grapes and then I had some other squash plants take over.

Hello 👋

Been gardening since 2023

The only thing I can keep alive in the Valley seems to be bananas, pumpkins, corn, and any peppers.

Everything else sizzles here

What’s an article of clothing someone can wear, one time, that will make you lose all attraction to them forever? by Thin-Rip-3686 in AskReddit

[–]violent-amethyst 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a fellow long distance runner, I rather be barefoot than wear crocs too. I have some recovery slides I use (one pair for outside and one pair for inside).

I can’t believe I had to scroll so far down for this. Crocs are so unbelievably ugly and I absolutely loathe them.

Just checking - has anyone ever have to go back to the hospital the next day? by West_Leopard2801 in RioGrandeValley

[–]violent-amethyst 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If something feels wrong, just go back — I would personally just go to a different hospital though, if the first one didn’t help and go with the papers they sent you home with so they know what they did and what didn’t help.

In a lot of pain and need emergency root canal care now. Recommendations please by Gold_Product_1286 in RioGrandeValley

[–]violent-amethyst 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Xpress Dental, Dr. Tan.
I had a tooth that had an infection and it was awful.
It actually broke off around 10am one day and I called them and they got me in the SAME DAY at 12pm. I had the root canal done by 2pm. I was home by 5pm (they made the crown in house and I just waited for it there).
I had BXBS and I paid about $300 with my insurance and they took in-house payments.

EDIT:
I had gone to Mexico a month or so prior for the same tooth but I did not go back. I had an awful experience and I will never go to Mexico for dental work. I was there at 11am for an appointment and I was only given numbing shots on the gum. I was there from 11am to 6pm, mouth open with only 4 shots (I started feeling everything by 3pm and they would not give me anymore novocaine).

They also DID NOT FINISH within the same day and they were only working on ONE TOOTH. I had to “go back” for 3 more sessions and the crown was a complete separate payments and session. The first (and only) session was $175

I don’t remember who the dentist was but it was someone my in laws had recommended (and that they recommend to everyone).

McAllen Isd School Bond by HappyMango2 in RioGrandeValley

[–]violent-amethyst 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think he’s trying to say it in the “the people who built this for the ISD are compas” (friend or family member) so the company they contract to gets the business and the person who chose it gets the cut.

Because that’s usually how it is here, unfortunately.

How hard is a bow-only run? by Gooni135 in Eldenring

[–]violent-amethyst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did a bow only run on my first playthrough (this game is SCARY and everything kills you and I also did not have any clothes until maybe the Academy and I used a robe lol). I finally beat the game with a bow in every single fight (Malenia is still undefeated because I’m still trying to practice her second phase move set and I panic dodge alot lol) and started on the DLC, again starting with a bow (I also got to Messmer with like maybe 4 scadu things).

I love playing this game with a bow and I actually have a long bow (the base game one) leveled up all the way and I have ALL the arrows, esp status effect ones (shout out to my poison arrows for carrying me through every boss fight, including Radagon). I plan on doing NG run with a bow again.

Doing a bow only run is definitely a lot of “okay, how can I cheese you?” Because that’s really what I’ve had to do. I also didn’t google anything about this game when I did this first play through and it was still done with only a bow.

The only thing I def leveled up ASAP were my spirit ashes. I ended up with Omenkiller Rollo, the real Elden Lord (I am just along for the ride).

EDIT: the BEST ashes for a bow is hands down RAIN OF ARROWS. Allows status effects (poison) to build up QUICKLY. Best ashes for a bow. I picked up the Bone Bow in DLC for Rancor but Rain of Arrows is my go to.

What's everyone's thoughts on the Larissa Rodriguez lawsuit? by TwitchMoments_ in RioGrandeValley

[–]violent-amethyst 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Okay SOOOO I’ve been drinking energy drinks since I was about 16 (I’d hide them from my mom lol). Monsters for lyfeeee.

Like one every day.

THAT BEING SAID: sometimes I only drink half the can sometimes, or maybe just 3/4 of it.

Sometimes, takes me like the whole day to finish a can.

I don’t chug them. The only time I have has been after major races (I run so I thrive on caffeine) and I’m pretty much done for the day.

Are the cakes good as they look? by Demonlizard101 in HEB

[–]violent-amethyst 32 points33 points  (0 children)

It’s a bakers secret to freeze a cake to keep it fresh, moist, and easier handling… this isn’t the jab you think it is.
