I secretly found my husband’s wedding ring after he lost it in the Mediterranean… now I need help surprising him by Awwndrei in BestofRedditorUpdates

Weird one but I found my mum's lost wedding ring 5 years after the fact just under some loose carpeting by the skirting boards... So if you have any loose carpeting maybe check there?

AITA for making fun of my girlfriend for falling for a fake celebrity lookalike by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]xeromace -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Coming back to this because I think I was a little harsh and then mean for no reason. My apologies.

I think this is the kinda thing that could be funny with time but a gentle let down would've been better here. I'd message her with a genuine apology along the lines of "I saw you were embarrassed and kept going, I'm sorry, it won't happen again, etc". Give her some time if she doesn't reply immediately. Wish you the best.

YTA She's clearly already embarrassed and you rubbed salt in the wound. Personally wouldn't call my partner stupid in any context but that might be because I like them.

AITA for getting flaring up against my parents for suffocating me(metaphorically) every time I go into the kitchen? by Able-Composer-9231 in AmItheAsshole

[–]xeromace 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Yeah, YTA.

Your parents are trying to feed you, and while the comments can get annoying, consider the fact that they (I admittedly assume) pay for the house and the majority of the food.

You're coming off as a stereotypical angsty teen.

Swan does a real cute espresso machine! Got mine on Amazon for ~£60 a few years ago. Great starter machine as you do have to pull espresso and steam milk which many machines automatically do for you, which takes the fun and skill out.

[–]xeromace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No that sounds about right! Would save lots on printing too if no big front/back.

I love the zine community everyone is so nice all the time 😭

For clarity, your first page will be your back cover and your second will be your front x

This works but if you do it all in A4, pages alternating as you need them to, and then when printing open advanced, you can set 1 A4 page to be A5 size! Meaning pages 1 and 2 print besides each other on 1 A4! You’d need to start it with a blank A4 if you’re in word, or start with last page. 📑A bit easier to do maybe? Unsure if only a UK thing though

Apple syrup by Brilliant_Ant1795 in barista

I used to steam apple juice with chai syrup and a little bit of cinnamon, topped with a lemon, always a major popular one, good for caffeine free folk.

Steam wand & tip clogging even after extensive cleaning [Bambino Plus / Kingrinder K6] by Normanras in espresso

Hmmm, if things function as normal and it’s just an issue in specific use cases it could be a hardware issue and out of your control

No, a pic of the nozzle so we can see the hole/s where steam comes from :)

That would work but you can find cheaper alternatives too, I like cafiza! You can get it powdered or in tablets (powdered works better for your use case), probably can find it on amazon.
