As someone who uses a Nintendo switch and an Xbox, the A and B buttons should be in the same place on all game controllers.

Dyson Airwrap. There’s a reason you never see professional salons using them.. it’s because they’re just not as good as a traditional hair dryer and other curling methods. I tried everything to get that thing to work and give me a nice style but it just didn’t. I’d use the airwrap attachments to curl my hair and by the time I’d finished, the curls I’d started on would already have dropped out. I couldn’t manage to get a nice smooth blow-dry like I can with a normal hairdryer either.

It’s like a jack-of-all-trades hairstyler. If you’re thinking of getting one I’d seriously recommend investing in a pro hairdryer instead and save your money. I can do my hair faster and my style lasts a lot longer with a hair dryer and curling with straighteners or rollers. I believe they do work for some people, but you have to have a specific type of hair (quite thick, with a natural wave or curl already) and it didn’t work for me. I’ve also had friends say the same thing.

This woman had the same experience as me with it:

Saved you a click: production halted for actors and writers strikes. Will resume when they’re over.

I miss the days when it wasn’t flooded with weaponised idiocy.

That and neopets.

In case of that particular game, it’s rigged to fuck. Anything that tries to get you to spend money is going to be. So I’d say a previously calculated result dictates the outcome.

Oh god I hate it. I can’t explain why it makes me feel so angry. Sometimes if I stretch with my arms up my husband will give me a little playful gentle poke in the ribs and I feel so bad because it honestly makes me want to punch him. I have this horrible visceral reaction to it. It doesn’t make me laugh at all, just feels like nails down a chalk board and painful at the same time.

Going too far for me. Surely we can come up with something more original?

I’m sad we haven’t got an r/Scottishpeopletwitter equivalent yet.

I think you should heed your own advice. Leave Reddit and stick to Memmy 😊

With help! Don’t write off outsourcing things like the housework to paid help.

And you still get paid wages as well as the sticker.

Not necessarily the most ridiculous.. but anything with something stuck on the back so it can’t lie flat. Like those rings that double as a stand. I’d be so annoyed if I had to put my phone face down all the time.

When they first introduced these, my brother thought it was a defect and ripped it off. It leaves a pretty sharp bit of plastic behind and he cut his hand when he screwed the lid back on. I get the idea behind them (it’s so you have to recycle the cap along with the bottle) but there’s got to be a better way than this. It makes it a pain to pour a drink or drink directly from the bottle.

No bans of chocolate chips on anything will ever be issued. You have my word.

That’s no different to now with Karma. And it seems like this new model doesn’t give them any real money so what’s the incentive to contribute at all?

“You can’t make a silk purse from sows ear” means you can’t make something nice from rubbish. “You can’t get blood from a stone” means attempting something difficult, if not impossible and futile”. E.g. “trying to get my kids to tell me about their school day is like trying to get blood from a stone.” It doesn’t matter how hard I try I get nothing.
