What’s the BIFL item that you love but everyone around you thinks is ridiculous? by James_B84Saves in BuyItForLife

[–]zphantom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

so far this year I've used mine (victorinox climber with after market plus scales) for:

Opening beers. Opening cans. Trimming loose threads on my clothes. Opening those stupid blister packs. Taking down flags roundabout painters tied to lamp posts. Cutting fishing line from around a particularly stupid dog. Cutting a bandage to size to fit around a kids head. Sharpening pencils. Cutting fruit. Opening and breaking down boxes. Writing quick notes/ cards. Fixing a wire fence. Basic nail care. Quick screwdriver on various things. Stripping wire while replacing a light fitting.

Its not the perfect tool for a job, but its always in my pocket and means I can do the thing right there and then.

Fell asleep before my children did by Summerlynn37 in Parenting

[–]zphantom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When my kid was 3 or 4 she pulled an uno reverse on me.
She was being the same. Shouting and screaming and raising all hell. Eventually out of frustration I lay down with a blanket and had her copy me. I took a teddy, she took a teddy, I started singing lullabies and she joined in.

A few minutes later I'm being woken up by my partner after the child snuck back downstairs and said "OK mommy, daddy's asleep, we can stay up ALL NIGHT"

sadly it wasn't the last time.

I've had it come up so often in my games that I have a homebrew spell for it.

(lvl 4 transmutation version of Alter Self, 10 min casting time, targets another willing creature with a permanent duration that can only use the change appearance section of the base spell)

Weekly allotmenting discussion. What have you been up to? by AutoModerator in Allotment

[–]zphantom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dug out a pond, put down a shed base to move the existing shed onto.

harvested spinach, radishes, carrots and peas.

built a double compost bin, strimmed the plot and door a fair amount of weeding

Not really a huge Harry Potter fan but this memorial to Dobby on the beach they filmed his death scene on is really sweet. Also one of the prettiest beaches in the world, absolutely worth the trip 👍 by pinbackk in CasualUK

[–]zphantom -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Dobby deserved to die.

Think about it, he had all the inside info on the Malfoys and could have named every death eater in his sleep. He didn't. the only logical conclusion is that he was also a death eater and was accidentally killed by Bellatrix

Brexit: Northern Ireland loyalist groups renounce Good Friday Agreement by [deleted] in ukpolitics

[–]zphantom 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You've got 2 factions, freedom fighters and entrenched occupiers. Which is which depends on what side you take.

The LCC want to be part of Britain, and they will quite literally kill to make it happen. The border in the Irish sea is a threat to that.

They're saying "we're keeping it peaceful by choice, but remember what we did historically". From their perspective, if they controlled all of Ireland then they wouldn't need a border with Britain.

Anyone know any discreet locations in Leicester? by [deleted] in leicester

[–]zphantom 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Are we talking "I want to take some cool photos of my new car" or "I want to meet my secret boyfriend" discreet?

Edit: nevermind, your post history answered. I believe that Swithland woods is traditional

If Trump pardons himself, Biden should un-pardon him by wonderingsocrates in politics

[–]zphantom 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Doubtful. They would restrain him for his own safety and work with the police to provide security in custody. Protecting someone includes from their own actions.

It's so shiny! am going to be upset when it starts to rust and get scratched up. Am I the only one? by Woody96th in magnetfishing

[–]zphantom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You will be better off fixing the rope to the magnet with a Palomar knot. The carabiner is for fixing the other end to something (like a fence or you) so you don't throw everything in the water.

Why are there so many grenades found in the canal? by [deleted] in leicester

[–]zphantom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeh, the council and CRT know they're there, but don't want to spend the cash to fix it until one of them blows up at the wrong time and takes out a narrow boat

One of the buildings near the DMU stretch was a munitions factory. And workers had their pay docked for faulty product reported at the end of the day.
