Reply to LPT Request: Please Please only honest answers to this serious subject. I am kind of scared and its unusual for this to happen. by [deleted]
It probably wasnt a message from god but I can't convince you otherwise if you're religious and believe that. It could have been anything, a car exhaust popping, a squirrel landing on your roof after jumping off a tree, someone throwing something at your house, could have even been something random like ice from an airplane or a tiny meteorite lmao. God would be the last thing I'd assume but you already sound pretty into that so I mean, it's whatever you want to believe.

It wasn’t a message from God, no. It was a stray animal or person outside who knocked something over, or some random item falling over, or a family member getting up to go to the bathroom and knocking something over, or something else.

Reply to LPT: When meeting new people, don't ask if they have kids, instead ask if they have pets. by _unknown_username
LPT: Never assume people want or don't want kids. Also, people can be really put off when asked to give a glimpse into their home life, so don't ask anything about their current home situation (including pets). Ask broader questions when first meeting them. "Have you always lived around here? What do you do for fun? Seen any good shows lately?".
Asking about pets forces the person to share facts about their personal life, or risk looking like an asshole for choosing not to (because pets seem so harmless, and mostly are, but also deeply personal).

Reply to comment by bestaquaneer in LPT: When debating or arguing with someone and it’s going nowhere, ask them, “What evidence would it take for you to consider that you’re wrong?” If they say “Nothing,” then it’s time to end the conversation. by blowfishmo
Schrödinger’s cat has been perverted by popularity. It’s not that the cat is alive or dead it’s something else entirely. When someone looks at the cat it is forced into being alive or dead, but is currently something neither alive nor dead. It’s in a third state of being.
So your argument is wrong, and you had no idea why. If asked would you have said that it could be wrong because of a misnomer about superposition?

You never know what their pet journey might be either. Their only pet ever could've died the day before for all you know.

Learned it the hard way. They showed up in a big suv, couple in their late 30s. Asked me to hop on in, and my first question was, "where are the kids". It was an awkwardly quiet 20-minute drive.

Reply to comment by jbautista13 in LPT: when taking something out of the oven always use two oven mitts even if you plan on only using one hand. If you accidentally drop the hot pan your instinct will be to grab it with your other hand which you’ll be glad is wearing an oven mitt! by [deleted]
I think it's more likely that pulling things out of the oven is pretty basic stuff. It should be obvious when two hands are needed. And when doing so, you should be moving slowly and carefully. If you're whipping things out in a quick frenzy and don't realize the inherent risk of handling hot items, then there are other tips you should start with before this LPT. Like, take your time and think about what you're doing when you're moving large dishes full of hot liquid.

Reply to LPT: take your wallet out during road trips by phatfarmz
The only cards I carry are my drivers license,health card,and bank card. I’ve found the plastic insurance folder works great as a wallet and doesn’t screw up my back.

These people must have the mind over body of a Jedi or slow as a sloth to not see how someone could easily burn themselves while instinctively reaching out for something they’re about to drop

>The biggest lesson I have learned to be aware of my negative internal thoughts. I can be my harshest critic and I sometimes have to stop and reflect “would I say this to a friend? What would I say to my friend if they came to me with this concern? Will it matter tomorrow, next week or next year?
I wish I could be my greatest friend you know.. also Yeah i did learn something from your pov

Reply to LPT Request: Any idea how to separate a photo that is fused with the glass on its frame? by Dwestmor1007
I'm sorry to hear about your mother's loss. It sounds like this photo is very important to her. It may be worthwhile to contact a professional photo restoration service to see if they have any ideas on how to separate the photo from the frame without damaging it. Additionally, it may help to keep the frame and photo sealed in a plastic bag with a desiccant material to absorb any excess moisture.

It is not possible, everyone is sleeping and animals dont usually get into our house, theres nothing to be knocked over outside except our patio stuff which are super heavy to move. Also, as soon as i heard the bang i rushed to check, checked all of the house, and checked outside. Everything is in place and nothing seems to be unusual.
