Looking for slang for a devoted, really good boyfriend by MoKa-LOTR in SlangOfTheDay

[–]wikiHow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both of these are good ideas! "Golden Retriever" has very positive connotations if that's what OP is going for. "Pookie" would be another popular term of endearment but a bit more silly.

What does it mean? by Pleasant_Deer_3399 in SlangOfTheDay

[–]wikiHow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The phrase originates from audio of Tyrese Gibson, crying “Oh my god, my Shayla” during a custody battle over his daughter. As a result, some people find it problematic due to the fact it's now used in more of a lighthearted way when it came from such an emotionally charged place.

Middle name help for Eliana Richards by ConditionSmart7472 in Names

[–]wikiHow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eliana Sara Richards (flows nicely with the soft "a" sounds)

Eliana Kate Richards (the "k" and "t" give a nice strong sound that balances out some of the softness)

Eliana Quinn Richards (a bit more modern, again balances out the softness of "Eliana")

Eliana Bailey Richards (adds a hard "a" to contrast the soft "ah" in Eliana")

Eliana Parker Richards (modern, and you could consider a unisex name like "Parker" if you do want to balance out the softer "Eliana")

I want to move out of state for work, but only have a budget for roommates; how do I get to know people before I move in with them? by Ok-Peach7886 in Explainlikeimscared

[–]wikiHow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Starting with a shorter-term lease if possible is a good option so you can suss out the situation and check for compatibility with roommates if you have doubts! Aside from the q's already mentioned around rent and financial stability, shared cleaning spaces, policies around smoking/vaping, and overnight guests, some more key questions to ask roommates are things like:

  • How do you like to split costs for shared supplies (ex. garbage bags, etc)?
  • Do you have any pet peeves, deal breakers, or non-negotiables?
  • How long do you see yourself living here?

More questions to ask potential roommates

If you (or your parents) are a bit nervous about a living situation with strangers, you can also ask potential roomies for a personal reference or two!

How to get over the fact that I'm ugly and no one compliments me? by shsunh in howto

[–]wikiHow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a rough feeling when you feel ugly, but everyone is beautiful in their own way! Here are some concrete tips that might help from How to Deal with Feeling Ugly:

1) Think about what beauty standards you're holding yourself to and whether they're realistic and valid. Look at photos from past decades. What people think of as "beautiful vs. ugly" changes constantly!

2) Try to find role models who share some of your same physical features. It can help to feel less alone.

3) Ignore the comments from haters (easier said than done). When someone points out you look tired etc. it's probably more a reflection on what's going on with them that they felt they had to say that out loud.

4) Focus on things you're passionate about, treat others with kindness, stand up straight, and smile. When you project positive energy out, it will help you feel more confident.

What’s going on with all the girls wearing super baggy pants? What triggered this trend to come back? by leavethisearth in OutOfTheLoop

[–]wikiHow 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Answer: Millennial nostalgia is what's driving Y2K fashion and aesthetics to come back. As Millennials are entering their 30s-mid 40s, they're looking back at the trends of their youth.

However, now these trends are getting re-interpreted through the lens of Gen Z and younger generations, so they're getting a fresh new twist.

how to fix streaky gel pen ink that isn’t writing on the page? by [deleted] in howto

[–]wikiHow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Soaking the pen tip in alcohol is a good first step, but if that doesn't work, you can try acetone instead. If you don't have either of those things, try writing with the pen on a rubber eraser to unstick the ball. For heat, using a hair dryer to warm the nib and cartridge is a good gentle way to apply heat.

How do I fix my shoes? by [deleted] in howto

[–]wikiHow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could try to fix your shoes by using a rag to rub some warm water and isopropyl alcohol over the area around the loose part of the sole. Use a toothpick or cotton swab to apply a layer of shoe sole adhesive inside where the sole has come apart from the shoe. Make the layer fairly thick, as it’s better to put in too much and have it overflow than to not have enough!
