    Nubisbully got a reaction from nightfall8705 in Yay For COOL Dental Health   
    First thought is ew bacon, as I'm a vegetarian. I love coffee but usually bruss/floss to get RID of the coffee flavor/smell.
     
    Buuuutttt... I'm s tremendous sucker for cupcake/cake flavored ANYTHING!!!! Love birthday cake ice cream, tried the BC oreos and even had a body spray that was cupcake scented.. however, I don't use flouride toothpaste and would be afraid I or any little kids would just eat it.. hmm....
     
    If I saw it cheaply in a store I might pick it up? :whistle:

    Nubisbully reacted to beruichi in Expensive avatars: just a show-off?   
    I chose the third option, despite me being an avatar collector, because I don't actually post in the neoboards often (if at all), so I don't get to use them. Collecting avatars is more like a personal goal for me, 'cause I'd be floundering in Neopia without having anything to focus on.
     
    I agree with Saxen's response; if you worked hard on getting that particular avatar, why not be proud of it? It's not any different from game avatars, after all; they all take a lot of work, not to mention a whole bunch of luck. Also, aesthetics comes into play, so what might be pretty for one person won't be pretty for another, and all that jazz.
     
    That being said, I have seen some people on the neoboards who seem really arrogant when it comes to avatars?? Like, it's cool that you have them, but if you actively prevent others from getting the same avatar, to quote this one person, "cause [he] can," then you're just being a rude applemuncher.

    Nubisbully reacted to decchild in What is your favorite fast food restaurant of the above?   
    I'm not sure anyone's heard of them, but Five Guys is a way better burger fast food chain than any other chain that does burgers. I stumbled into one when I attended uni in the US. They're located in the Northeastern US and have the BEST fries and burgers.
     
    That and anything from Wegmans (a grocery chain located in the NE US also). What I'd give to fly back to one of their stores and binge-eat their sushi, salad bar, or desserts. Om nom nom.
     
    As for Chinese food, I can make the real stuff any time I want! We live close to a Chinatown that does HK styled food, which means I never have to cook if I don't want to, since food is so cheap there. :laughingsmiley: .

    Since it errors when you try to Album it, it's likely TNT just assigned it the wrong category on accident. The description reads like it should be wearable. They'll fix it sometime tomorrow.

    No problem! I'm glad that they will be put to good use.
     
    Those are a lovely shade of purple and with the right outfit could work well. They aren't as versatile as those that you wanted but I'll bet that they would look good. The new prizes seemed to have all the folks on the NC chat boards all excited. They really like the faerie stuff so I think you're right in that if you decide that you don't want them later, someone else will. :)

    Nubisbully reacted to Katsuokai in Help deciding on Negg Gazer accessory!   
    It can be rather tough to decide between these two, but I think that the wig is overall better than the wings. Why you may wonder? Well, the wig is really well done, when the wings looks rather... plain. It has that plain 2D look whereas the wig is more three-dimensional. I myself am planning to get a Woodland Uni so I might end up getting both of those items cause I really like cherry blossom items because of that japanese vibe they give me.

    This being said, unless you're going to watch them on your pets lookup in movement, then the plainness of the wings doesn't really show that much, at least it doesn't bother me to look at them while looking at a small static preview image. /haha Another point to consider would be if you really want those wings to use them on a pet that already have cherry blossom wings... plus! the wig it's a bit more versatile than the wings. The wings will probably look best on similar coloured pets while the wig gives you more customization options. A last point to consider would be that that TNT will probably release more pink wigs in the future, whereas wings that resemble cherry blossoms will probably not be released again, at least not anytime soon.

    Well, that sure was a lot I had to say about just two items... . /haha Hope you're satisfied with whichever of the two items you end up buying. If you're not... well, then I suppose you could always arrange a trade with another user later on. ;P

    I know that there are a lot of pink wigs - true - but this is a pretty nice one. The other thing that I noticed on my pets anyway, is that the wings look somehow off on the four legged pets. They seem to overwhelm the pet. However maybe on a longer legged four legged pet (like a uni) it won't be so bad.
    Tell you what - if you haven't already chosen one over the other, get the wig and you can have my wings. I am not going to use them and I'd rather they go to someone who will enjoy them then rot on a trade list. I'll check back here tomorrow or you can always NM me and then I can send them to you.

    Nubisbully got a reaction from missmadiemay in Interesting cultural habits from your country/state/area!   
    I grew up in the south eastern US (born in North Carolina, grew up in Orlando Florida, school in West Virginia (by Pittsburgh), college in South Carolina) so I classify any southern behavior as "normal" and everything else is "unique." More recently I lived in Vermont for several years and am now around Philadelphia so I"m learning how different these areas really are.
     
    In Vermont they say "wicked" a lot in regards to things being "awesome." In the south "wicked" would be a naughty or sinful thing.
     
    In Philadelphia they have an odd accent which I don't really like and they are very particular about how you call a sandwich. I am use to saying "sub" for a long piece of bread which is cut and has cheese, veggies etc but here it's a "grinder" or "hoagie" but they mean specific things. I still get confused after 5 years of living here.
     
    Cooking methods is also very different. In the south we used a lot of Pecans (pronounced PEE-CON not PEE-CAN in Florida but reverse in NC) sweet potatoes and butter/lard. Here it's more pumpkin pie and walnuts and olive oil (from the large Italian population.) Vermont is all maple syrup and local eggs, raw milk, raw cheeses and overall yummy but expensive.
     
    The biggest irk to me was an ex-bf who called "soda" , "pop". This is an Ohio/West Virginia thing that drives me NUTS!!! In some southern states it's all "Coke." No matter the brand or flavor sometimes.
     
    Sooo.. that was all food related, I think it's time to eat!

    Nubisbully got a reaction from hanalways in Buying online from China: anyone?   
    I'm not a fan of supporting anything "from China." There's a big pull towards items "made in the US" for example now. We've lost/are losing a lot of jobs and the savings aren't worth it. Everyone has their items made there and there's a big problem with the factories in China stealing the item design and making it illegally themselves and selling for cheap. It's almost impossible to save your product design/patent once it's been stolen there. Sorry to be such a spoil sport but I've seen a lot of negative impact and the quality is rarely there. I've recently had a baby and am using cloth diapers and WILL NOT buy any made in China for lack of quality and lack of knowledge of what they're using. Many of their regulations are lax and who knows what chemicals they're using on the fabrics plus, they allow Walmart to cheat their employees and have the states half support them with food stamps and medicaid.
     
    I personally prefer items made in the EU or US or Aus/Nz for better quality as I hate falling in love with something only to have it rip at the seams or disintegrate due to inferior production. Depends on why you're buying it I guess.
     
    I want to clarify that I am not being prejudice against the country since this can/does happen in other places, including the US but the Chinese are smart in that they make/ship out cheap/inferior products but they themselves have stricter standards for their own citizens.
     
    We (Americans) are also giant hypocrites since we throw a fit about chicken dog treats from China, but ship our (human grade) chickens over there to be defeathered/treated and shipped back to us....
     
    The dress is cute though, but I'd think you'd have beautiful clothing where you are.

    Oooh, that's such a hard decision! I don't usually like wings, but I loved those on Unis, so I voted for them. Plus, it's hard to find cherry-blossom themed items, while it's probably gonna be easier for you to find a similar pink wig later! :)

    This is hard! Both of them are so pretty! But I voted for the wings, because they're better, in some way. I mean, I don't really like wigs, even though that one is REALLY lovely! I found that most of your Neopets have wings! Even though I voted for wings, I'm still not quite sure. Maybe you should keep on saving the Sparkling Negg Dust! You never know what TNT has in store! :P

    I think stumbling on this post is so funny because I literally just came back from the tattoo shop! Sadly, they backed out from our earlier consult, saying they didn't think they could pull off the hyper realism look I was going for (computer ports that look integrated into my skin behind my ear-->cyborgian feminism). I got a solid recommendation.

    I do have one tatt though. Its a Bansky/Dark Angel inspired tatt.





    Gorgeous!! Love the colours and facial expression :)

    Nubisbully got a reaction from siniri in NC Gift Box Capsule Help   
    Sorry, guess I rambled a bit. I'd like to create a Cybunny for my main account but I already have four pets. One of the NC items I want to use on a main pet is on a side and I don't want to waste a box sending it to another account. NC items don't transfer, only NP items so I'd just swap pets out and decorate it on my side since I only have one NC item for her and the NP items I can move. Not sure if that was any clearer actually.
     
     
     
    I did that exact thing and got a bunch of junk and one thing I really quite liked. It's frustrating to have all these cheap trinket things you don't want and don't want to buy a box to send. The upcycle fortune cookies are nice to get rid of this stuff and get something back but it's so random it drives me nuts, and I don't really want to spend the money to buy a FC for my other account when I only have four things to get rid of there and that might only be one day or "upcycling."
     
    Hope any of that made sense... lack of sleep frying my brain.

    Nubisbully got a reaction from Shelley in Buying online from China: anyone?   
    ShelleyJoy: I'm very much the same way. I have a hard to fit body type and am very picky about the materials and feel. Thrift stores are my best friend (and my wallets) because there is usually something to fit at least one part of me and my eclectic tastes. Best part is that it doesn't have to be broken in.
     
     
     
    That does sound ridiculous, much like living in New York over here or La but I imagine it's prettier where you are, with a nicer climate. The prices in that article sound like where I want to live (Seattle area) but there is no work there unless you're a software engineer. Do you not think it will go back to being more reasonable after the Olympics? That's still over two years I know, but hopefully.
