TROPHY CASE

My mom's mentally challenged neighbor's house burned down. All he has in the world are 4 cats, here is a firefighter saving one. by lfernandesin pics

[–]starsspinningdizzy 0 points1 point ago

this is such a sad, but also heartwarming story. I've ordered vinyl wall decal paw prints for Vince and had them sent to him/your mom. They should be there in 3-5 days. I hope he enjoys them.

How can I get some good practice shooting candid pics?

I've been doing portrait photography for a while now, shooting mostly models, but I feel like I've been plateauing a bit and want to try something new. I haven't had a lot of experience with candids, considering during a shoot, I control everything from the lighting, pose, etc. to get what I want, and I liked to try out candids. The question is, where can I go to practice candids? I don't want to be, like, the creepy girl with the camera shooting people who don't want to be shot, so I'm not really sure how to go about it....any ideas and suggestions welcome!

Cutest yet strangest thing your SO said to you? by FlightoftheDamnedin TwoXChromosomes

I think that would be the other way around, actually...wasabi is like immediate BAM! then gone.

anyway, they're both delicious. and either one can make a good relationship analogy.

Two-X please help me. Is this joke sexist or misogynistic? by pomoin TwoXChromosomes

[–]starsspinningdizzy 1 point2 points ago

ha, I consider myself a feminist, and I actually love that joke, for what it's worth. although I tell the first part differently; a man means to say to his wife "You look like you could use some rest" and accidentally says "You look like you could use some breast"

edit: I definitely don't agree w/ the responses that it's offensive because it implies wives are controlling bitches; it only implies that one person is a one. we need to stop letting one character represent an entire gender/race/etc in our minds.

Found this in a women's bathroom of a bar in my hometown. This is beyond going to the bathroom to touch up some makeup... by thatlaragirlin TwoXChromosomes

Please help...$500 cash if you can figure out whats wrong with me by throwaway1052in Health

<obligatory "I'm not a doctor, etc." preface>

okay, so there have been a few comments (including the long, well thought-out one from a physician) that suggested that perhaps a mental illness is causing this...I agree with the suggestion that you should look deeper into that. I know that panic attacks can cause some very strange physical symptoms, as can generalized anxiety. you should see a psychiatrist, perhaps take another go at a different kind of anxiety medication.

too bad for her that she only lives once, otherwise she'd get a do-over on that tattoo...

Got a new graphic novel, read the opening, was instantly depressed because of how often it happens irl. No clever title, it just got me down. by ApeWithACellphonein TwoXChromosomes

[–]starsspinningdizzy 0 points1 point ago

well, if it makes you feel better, I had a number of relationships wherein I didn't have sex (I lost my virginity--at least PiV--at 23), and my boyfriends were never assholes about it. in fact, I couldn't even finish the first time I tried because it hurt so much and my boyfriend at the time couldn't have been more understanding about it.

so yeah, it happens, some people are assholes, but trust me, there are plenty of good ones out there....

wow, that's funny. I mean, I find it funny because it's so far from my life experience (I went to what could easily be considered a "hippie college"--the part about piercings and counterculture hairstyles alone made me laugh). I feel bad for people who have to deal with that, but whatever works for them, I guess.

My mom and I finished sewing my wedding dress today. by eadinadin TwoXChromosomes

okay, I'm not a wedding person, but that dress is lovely and amazing, even more so for having been homemade. wow.

So, this happened. by CityOfOnein TwoXChromosomes

[–]starsspinningdizzy 3 points4 points ago

fair enough. I'm glad you went for it, all in all. if more girls reacted like that, maybe less guys would do it.

[–]starsspinningdizzy 2 points3 points ago

I think it's cool that you called them out, but the phrase "jackass nobody" really bothers me...well just the "nobody" part. that's totally uncalled for--how are you gonna imply that somebody's existence is less valid because they made one jerky comment?

also, "the other said NOTHING" is inflammatory bulllshit, because he did apologize. not only is that obviously not nothing, but it's pretty much the best possible outcome. sure, he was being a jerk, but give him some credit for apologizing; I imagine a lot of guys in a situation like that would just get angry and act like more of an asshole.

not trying to be offensive here, but I feel like you were a little too hard on the guy.

Seriously, adorable (Felecia Day) by sillymuffincakesin pics

[–]starsspinningdizzy 1 point2 points ago

all my (nerdy) friends are like in love with her. I usually don't get it, because I think just looks-wise, she's cute, but not amazing. but yeah, watching this I can definitely see it more. I guess it's really her personality/expressions/etc that make her attractive.

Being in my early 30s I'm now a young adult but... by foreverderpettein TwoXChromosomes

[–]starsspinningdizzy 9 points10 points ago

yeah, I didn't mean to imply that time spent w/ children is wasted time; they're just not for me.

but I do find that not having kids makes it a lot easier to not do the daily work grind, and that's a choice I'm glad I've made.

I don't work full-time, and partly I'm lucky because I live with my boyfriend in a house he owns and pay low rent. but I make up for it by cleaning and taking care of things around the house, generally. I have to live cheaply for the most part, but I don't mind.
