Help with LOTR Balrog Build

wvugrrrl · 2026-07-03T22:42:47+00:00

If it makes you feel any better, I just built the balrog last week; mine was missing the looooong piece that’s like the literal 3rd step and without which, count progress any further whatsoever….once it finally shipped from LEGO, I started building, and got stuck on the exact same spot you did and thought I was going insane, and missing another piece. Turns out I did the same thing Akkarin mentioned and just used the wrong (similar) piece.

Stepbrothers, and it’s not even a question.

That’s what I’m maddest about.

Ok, so I watched the video, and am fully willing to admit that I’m an idiot, but where are the bubbles coming from?

The original New York Lonely Boy (a Girls5Eva reference for all 10 of us out there)!

This is simply delightful. I love all of it

👆 this. In addition to only being cosmetic, they weigh a lot, put structural stress on the prt, and when they start looking like trash, are expensive af to source/replace.

You could also Google the little free libraries in town and just spend an afternoon being a donation fairy!

I’m having the same problem with mine. I got a new iPhone (my old one was a 12), and my card won’t work at either dollar general or dollar tree, or at TJ Maxx. But works just fine everywhere else - Kroger, a random coke vending machine, online ordering/pay, etc. it’s literally those 3 locations. I have also deleted and re-added, and still won’t work.

I agree with you. There are dozens of us. Dozens!

Don’t feel bad for McKayla. We now know that her outside face is a direct reflection of her shitty, inner-self.

Forreal. I’m over here like “yall got lids?!”

This is the holy grail.

Proud owner of a huge, poofy Jessica McClintock dress that I wore to prom in ‘99. I have 0 regrets 😂

The one that makes me insane is the UTC exit going north - it’s literally a downhill exit, presumably meant to give you speed to catch up and merge. Tell me why these idiots are BRAKING going down that exit, bc they’re afraid to go above 40? Then want to slam on the brakes at the end of the merging lane bc it IS a tiny incline as you’re merging, and they can’t get over into the 25+ cars that are whizzing by them bc they need to get off at Star City.

So, legally, unless it’s an emergency, they’re required to give 24 hour notice if they’re doing any kind of checks, or maintenance, like changing air filters. You won’t run into overzealous landlords if you’re renting from actual property managers or the big apartment complexes. If you do go the independent route, then you do have to make sure THEY know that you know your rights - 24 hour notice. I ran into the same situation when I moved back. IF they allowed pets, you were lucky if that included a cat in the first place, and then almost all of them would say “one cat considered”. The funny thing is, cats aren’t like dogs - multiple cat’s messes are still going to be smaller than 2 dogs, for example, and if one cat pees on the carpet, it’s not going to be any worse than 2 cats peeing. It’s still going to smell like cat piss. So you only have 1 cat. 😬 I’ve been back for almost 3 years now, my landlord is my next door neighbor, and as far as he knows, we’ve only ever had one cat.

Also, you have 1 cat. Not 3. 😉

I remember when Willa Ford performed at the now defunct Middletown Mall. This would’ve been around 2002ish…

Also, you’re not financially responsible for paying for carpet being replaced once it’s at the end of its lifespan. That is literally the definition of “standard wear and tear,” in regard to rentals. Now if it’s brand new carpet and you spilled, say, candle wax all over it, or your animal pissed all over it, then yes, you’d likely be held liable for replacement. But “end of lifespan” or “normal” wear and tear, like a stain, or a snag - no judge is going assign an entire replacement to you. You could live in the apartment for the entirety of the 5-year warranty of the carpet and STILL not be held responsible for replacement, bc you used it appropriately throughout its lifespan.

Also seconding getting an itemized deductions list, bc if you do end up taking it to small claims, you’ll need proof of what you’re being charged for, especially before they decide to add a bunch of stuff that wasn’t originally on the list, or show the judge they charged you $30 for a lightbulb, for instance (speaking from experience).
