how do you break pants

Fossilmaiden · 2013-09-16 20:02:07

Buttons fall off. :|

Obā-san · 2013-09-16 20:03:26

bro do you not know how to sew a button

Obā-san · 2013-09-16 20:04:38

i would show you how right now in person how to do it but since this is the interwebs i will have to show you a youtube video

Fossilmaiden · 2013-09-16 20:05:29

i cannot sew buttons that are gone from this realm of existence.

also i would be the worst bro.

also also you overestimate my relationship with sharp objects.

Obā-san · 2013-09-16 20:07:11

you can buy new buttons, they are not expensive! :D

also with a bit of practice you will stop poking yourself

Obā-san · 2013-09-16 20:08:45

having extra buttons is handy

like if you have a few sets you can change around the buttons on a blazer so it works in a variety of seasons

You really overestimate my relationship with sharp objects. Chisels, grass, paper, pins, needles, safety pins, doors, laptops, potatoes, Excalibur. Not knives, oddly enough.

Hexartes · 2013-09-16 20:13:52

By not having one.

ah, to clarify, we weren't required to take textiles at gcse level

we had to take a design class, but i chose food.

I had home economics! They didn't call it that anymore, but we still had to learn how to work a sewing machine and stuff. I royally sucked at it, but my mom had already taught my sister how to sew, so she breezed through it.

I, like Fossilmaiden, am incompetent with sharp things that are not food-related. I'm braver about getting blood taken than I used to be, given that the pain does not bother me and I can look away, but still...

Actually, I don't fear needles at all! I just fear being hideously injured. And seeing my own blood.

Bees have stingers.

Why do bees have stingers if stinging makes them die?

They can sting each other safely. Human skin is just too tough.

the queen is the one passing on the genes of the bee, so evolutionary speaking it makes sense for a bee to sacrifice it's life for the queen

Hexartes · 2013-09-16 20:26:13

So

Tachyon

How's it been

This.

Also, only certain species of bees die when they sting, and insofar as I can tell, those species have a pretty high proportion of nectar-gathering and grub-tending workers compared to, say, a hive of hornets or carpenter bees.

^^^ & ^^ That and that, too.

Tachyon · 2013-09-16 20:28:04

it has been pretty ok Kex, in an uneventful sort of way. Went to Derbyshire with my family, that was nice.

How've you been?

I thought that bees died after stinging anything (nope, I was wrong there).

I asked a question and I learned something new.

Once again, all is right with my world.

I'll give the obligatory answer of "pretty good," but as anyone here can attest it's been... complicated.

A8/BobbyG/Tachyon, you're back!

I like talking with you.

Hexartes · 2013-09-16 20:39:16

I honestly don't feel like recounting all the events since you've been gone but... ahhhh.... no. There's been some positive but the overall feeling was that of "wow, I'm getting sick of the crap I have to go through." And being a bit of an obnoxious jerk on a few occasions, as always.

Obā-san · 2013-09-16 20:41:37

"Iff" is actually a word, surprisingly enough.
