beloved alternatives my mom usually drops:

"das ist nicht die Wucht in Tüten" (this ain't the might in bags)

"damit kann man keinen Blumentopf gewinnen" (one won't win a planting pot for that)

"das lockt niemanden vom ofen hervor" (nobody will be lured from behind the oven with that)

the lashes are upside down 😔

I'm not an expert either but my first thought was, that bright, opaque and pastel colors are the most difficult ones to start with because one needs a lot of layers to make it look even and this automatically results in rather thick layers that are brittle and chip easyly. In my experience shear shimmery polishes are easier to use because the shimmery pigments are more forgiving when it comes to inhomogeneities in application. Regarding the top coat you used it looks like it was just an unlucky coice and it seems to have absorbed something you where in contact with. Like dirt or strongly tinted food. You could try the scientific approach and use your topcoat on a blank nail and subject it to the same type of substance and see if it also gets this yellowish stain. If yes, the top coat is trash, if not it reacted with the polish underneath so you still have to find a different combo. It is also possible, that the top coat is overly sensitive to UV-light, is old or has this as a side effect of it's polymerisation reaction. Also possible is, that your second layer was not entirely dry of did dissolve the layer underneath which may have caused the diffusion of components that where not supposed to hang out together. (But that is a bold theory).

In my experience several very thin layers are better than to few very thick layers and as already said, shear shimmery colors are easier to start with and the layers can be thinner

I would try a different top coat either way (possibly from the same brand, as this increases the likelyhood of compatibility)

Considering that white is among the most difficult colors (imo) you did an awesome job, though

Edit: now that i thought about it, it is possible that white and pastel colors are probably higly filled with mineral powder, making them very prone to chipping/flaking/breakinganfd that probably increased your desire to protect it with layers that were simply too thick

Good to know and bad for Geezer

Well, i don't usually date women, so can not really tell what is a "woman"-thing or a "man"-thing to do. It is possible that it is just a "human"-thing. However, the post was specifically asking for our experiences with men, so...

Maybe late disclaimer: this is just my experience (as i said), my experience does not mean your experience is not true/valid/plausible/meaningful. Women can also be at fault/problematic/the problem (obviously and nobody even claimed that). Not all men are like that (obviously and nobody even claimed that).

This reminds me of the moment i was actively listening to the lyrics of "paranoid” for the first time (i heared the song before, i just didn't really listen)

Finished with my woman 'Cause she couldn't help me with my mind

And i thought:

Well, Ozzy, maybe that's because:

• she wasn't supposed to
• it was not her job
• she might have been occupied with her own mind, which can be plenty of work for one person alone
• you probably did not pay her a psychiatrist salary
• she probably was not trained to do so
• if she was trained and you didn't pay her, then why should she?
• if she was not trained eventhough you paid her, then why could she?
• if she is not trained and you didn't pay her, then why would she?
• and if she is trained and you did pay her then it is not your woman it is your therapist with whom you engage in a prosessional relationship
• your expectation is unrealistic in the first place, how dare you writing lyrics like that, making persons think that those are valid expectations to have.

Anyway, in my experience men never really want "help" or change things. They just like complaining about stuff. They complain about their own flaws and especially yours (his partners) flaws, flaws in the world, the politics, persons at work, the boss. In my experience whenever i offered help to deal with some stuff they usually complained about, they don't want to hear it. They don't even want to try. They just expect you to be some sort of sponge that absorbs all the rambling about everything that sucks for them.

• also, Ozzy, what did you do to help your mind?

How they managed that their application for an account got accepted.

• Dänische Kinderserien
• Alpensalamander
• upconverting nanoparticles
• germanic languages
• Plumeau

I wonder how they got in

Sie werden mit der Zeit besser. Ich fand es am Anfang auch etwas wirr aber die Folgen sind alle gleich strukturiert sodass man mit der zeit besser durchblickt.

Ja genau

Vielleicht die die ich verwendet habe oder es hat einfach für mich gepasst. Weiss auch nicht ob ich überhaupt das original genommen habe.

Eine Erdnuss die im Teigmantel frittiert und anschliessend in einer Gewürzmischung gewälzt wird und zb. aus solch einer Tüte stammt. Die Herstellung ist eine Vermutung.

Ja es ist ein spannendes Feld diese Soßenalchemie. Ich kann mir vorstellen dass auch mit Maggi-würze etwas gutes dabei raus kommt.

Ich esse eher scharf, daher nehme ich das nicht so war. Und ich habe die milde Sriraca mit dem roten Verschluss benutzt.

Aber röstest du das Tahini oder gibt es das schon so aus geröstetem Sesam zu kaufen?

Oh ja das kann ich mir vorstellen. Das probiere ich mal.

Ja besten Dank für die Finanzierung der ersten Staffel. Leider ist es unklar ob es eine weitere gibt. Daher wäre es gut wenn die noch weitere Anfragen bekämen und mehr Leute mal reinhören

"Mensch Märzi, richtig zart deine Hände! Hätte ich garnicht gedacht!"

Ahahahahahaha. Bugs are so awesome
