My best friend gave me a Claddagh ring as a friendship ring before she died (she had a matching one). Depending on the orientation of how it is worn and what hand reflects your relationship status. My husband didn't buy me a ring; he asked me to marry him as he switched the position of my ring. I cried and thought it was really sweet because I only explained how the rung worked once, and he, who has a notoriously terrible memory, remembered. I told my boomer coworker, and she called him cheap. I said she was one to talk, seeing as for Christmas gift exchanges, she didn't buy anything but used the event as an excuse to unload some of the hoard of shit she had in her apartment off on other people. She was not amused.

That has got to be one of the cutest proposal stories I've heard! The top has to be that my dad threw the ring in my moms lap and ran because he was so scared. They've been married since 83'.

[@The_Keh27]

That's such a great proposal story! Back in college, I saved up enough while delivering pizzas part time to buy an engagement ring for about $150. She adored it. Later we swapped it with a ring handed down by my mother (it took us a while to afford the wedding - which itself was also done on a very limited budget with the most expensive parts being the wedding rings, but it was beautiful and a lot of fun). Money and price aren't important when it's love.

I'm happy for people happy with marriage but it isn't something I'll probably ever partake in. Marriage feels too pointless for me personally cause in my mind if I love someone I don't need marriage to prove it or be with them.

I never understood the expensive engagement ring trend. If my partner and I were at a point in our relationship where we could and wanted to get married (and I love him with my whole heart and soul, so I hope we will), he could go into my jewelry box and propose to me with a ring I already own and I would still be dang thrilled. It should be about the person, not about the thing.

Even a grand for hand crocheted article can be too little. Craftsmanship like this often costs thousands of dollars and honestly they deserve it.

[@lindseyherbst9444]

Yeah, I was gonna say, they're charging less than a dollar per hour of work, since the cost of the materials is included in the final price (as they should be, good quality yarn and materials aren't cheap) If they charged $8 per hour, and didn't charge for the materials, that alone would be $1,200.

[@lindseyherbst9444]

And even $8 an hour would be under charging imo.

[@ForumcoldiArchon]

​​@@lindseyherbst9444 yea but I bet you this is just their hobby they do on the side. Yarn etc is expensive and noone will buy custom stuff for $1000+ if you are not known.. hence it will lie arround and more wool will still be needed for the next project.

I’ve had someone say my hand drawn highly detailed drawing, A1 size, being £500 was too much. Literally if I charged minimum wage per hour of labour to make it I’d be charging thousands!

[@SlideRulePirate]

I'm hearing you. My Mum was an avid crocheter. She used to attend small local craft fairs and exhibitions. As a backdrop for her pitch she'd use what she felt was one of her best pieces ever, a fine cotton bedspread. A chap once asked how much she's take for it though it wasn't actually for sale. She asked him to make an offer and he said "It's easily worth £50." (we're Brits) She tells him that that wouldn't cover the materials, it represented over a thousand hours of work and would he care to revise his offer. He just walked away. In the end she had to make another. She showed it to a neighbour who greatly admired it and told her she needed to make another. On asking why that would be, my Mum was told "If you don't then your sons' wives will fight over it", even though we were still kids at the time. My Mum's neighbour was wise. My brother and his wife have one. I'm not married but the one I have is treasured by my GF. I don't think either gets used much because of how utterly(!!!) irreplaceable they are.

The person who responded to the Instagram person wanting to eat at the restaurant and review it who said that "You have as much of a right to review my restaurant as I have to review your menstrual cycle" had said that, because although it shouldn't have to be said it's disrespectful to review another's menstrual cycle, her entitlement was as if she was wanting to review a part of the restaurant owner's own person, as I assume they probably feel as that this is their life's work.

[@Ryanthusar]

She was basically asking for a FREE meal and by giving it FREE she would review the restaurant. That is how she was being disrespectful, what is funny is for all its known is that the person that replied back to her could very well have been female. However you can bet there is much more to that story as well, who knows what took place at the place before that post was put up.

[@trishapellis]

Yeeeah look anyone has the right to go into a restaurant and leave a public review of that restaurant, because a restaurant is a public thing. I post restaurant reviews all the time. I don't ask for money and freebies because I am a nobody, and hundreds of people are not going to make their decision on whether or not to eat at this restaurant based on my review alone - restaurants invite influencers in order to get a review from someone who will hopefully *influence* hundreds of people to try the restaurant. But anyone can leave a review. If your restaurant is so tied up with your self-worth that you can't stand reviews, honestly, you should just cook for your own family instead. I sincerely believe the restaurant owner from that post was just pissed that a freeloader approached them acting like they owned the restaurant and the restaurant owed them food for being a self-proclaimed 'influencer' - they just worded it in a way that's kinda strange and confusing (though also original and striking, so there's that.)

[@ETXAlienRobot201]

@@trishapellis what's annoying is if you are someone with considerable pull/notoriety that you could *potentially* convince a crowd of people to [not] go to that restaurant. some random influencer? nah... major food critic, chef, etc...? absolutely.... coordinated efforts could also be utilized. i wouldn't write reviews off as no big deal though. for a fledgling business in particular, they *can* be devastating. it's not just insecurities about self-worth, they can be [and have been] weaponized. in this case, probably not much to worry about.

[@Mia199603]

Nah, the response was sexist and disproportionate. If the owner has such fragile ego he can't handle a review of his restaurant then he should just never leave his house and never interact with the outside world. It's a vital part of democracy and free market to choose where you spend your money and review what other people demand money for. And he weirdly focused on the review part, not the actually pertinent entitlement so that's very telling.

[@berrymint6384]

They still have 100% right to review smething. It is a PUBLIC place. If she meant like USING this to try and get free food, ect. then i get it thou the example is still rude.

Sort of funny story similar to the returning food after you ate it all. Once, I was with some buddies at a Mexican restaurant, and several of us got a large horchata. I REALLY like horchata, but this time around it tasted kinda funny, a little sour. I noticed it and my friends noticed it. It was kind of like a cream cheese sour, and I actually really liked it. Turns out they didn't clean the old batch out when they made the new one (it was really late and it was 24-hrs restaurant), and offered us all a new, fresh horchata. I refused, because I REALLY like the slightly sour horchata, much to everyone's (especially the staff) horror and kept drinking it. Well, even after I drank mine, they still insisted on giving me a second, free horchata, and those things were HUGE. I was happy. Everyone else was far more grossed out than they should. The next day I had slight indigestion and that was all I suffered. 11/10, would drink sour horchata again.

As someone who has lost a fair bit of weight quickly once (a little over ten or so pounds in about a month, I think?) it was not fun. I wanted to lose the weight for quite some time, but losing it made me realize my current weight is what’s healthiest for me. I lost it during my schools musical. They only had one pair of pants for my costume that was the right size for my legs, unfortunately, the waist was a bit over two inches smaller than I needed. They couldn’t do any adjustments to said pants so I needed to keep those on for rehearsals, dance numbers, really all of the time. I did have a costume change, but those pants were just as tight around the waist. I couldn’t eat, it restricted me to the point where I couldn’t eat in costume because the slightest change in my stomach would be unbearable, so I just didn’t. I already have low iron, so I was consistently dizzy, and when I wasn’t wearing my costume I couldn’t eat as much as my body needed because I just didn’t have the appetite anymore. TL;DR, Robin is right, losing weight with minimal effort can be awful. And caused me several head injuries due to lightheadedness.

okay, about the crochet clothes, honestly she's right. i don't sell my crochet and if i did i would only sell plushies and bags because the one time i decided to crochet a pullover it took me a literal month. i imagine it would take less if it was my full-time job and i had 8 hours a day to sit down and crochet, but also you physically cannot crochet for 8 hours straight every single day because it can very seriously injure your hands and wrists with the repetitive motions, and crochet specifically has the added point that it can't be done by machine at all, every single stitch must be done individually by hand. it takes 2 hours to make something that can fit inside my hand. imagine a full article of clothing.

to be fair, there's a concentrated brainwashing/indoctrination effort to make people enlist. not to mention a horrible economy to force their hands. and the draft always *could* be exercized like it was for vietnam. i've personally never necesarrily questioned the discount, but i do wonder how many guys have simply requested one and that's it, discounted. seems to me that the rare occassion someone orders from my club's food booth and requests the discount, that we just... do it. all that said, probably stems from our uhm...culture of "respect our troops/veterans/fallen". quite possibly also the fact that we basically do NOT take care of our veterans, some so unfortunate to become homeless in addition to various wounds/scars inflicted upon them in war.

[@orangequill1645]

I mean-Ngl people that risk getting shot At probably deserve something after leaving even if it is just a 10% discount or whatever

[@ETXAlienRobot201]

@@orangequill1645 we have a lot of these types of things strewn through our society/country. [at least in the US] and all have the same fundamental problem that at the end of the day, a line was drawn. plenty of civilian jobs where daily risking of life is a thing. what about them? not all military positions carry the same risk, either. plenty where you're quite safe, save for the terrorist that "magically appears with no warning" in the homeland at your base. there was more, but i'll leave it at that. also the morals/ethics of military and police work are quite foggy. which also weighs-in on that discount/freebie. genuinely awful people *shouldn't* be given the treatment of a hero "just cuz they played that part".

"Mercerized" cotton thread or yarn is 100% cotton but has been through extra processing beyond just cleaning. It strengthens the thread, making it wear out/break less over many washings, makes it more receptive to the dye color & gives a smooth feeling semi-gloss finish. The process makes it better to use when making many kinds of items, but it does make the thread/yarn cost a bit more of course. If you're only buying a little to make a couple items you might think the difference in price of a few cents per yard is no big deal, but for someone having a business making many items that means that the cost of supplies goes up a lot when they're buying in bulk. Since she's talking about crocheted clothing items, you'd want all natural fibers (cotton, wool, silk, etc) rather than polyester or poly blends because that will just be scratchy against skin.

I don’t think the guy at 7:35 *wanted* his mom to get him a girlfriend, I think she did this without his permission. She’s a self described helicopter parent too which is just gross, but if fits the situation.

[@NormalCardBoardBoxes]

Yeah this is definitely the mom’s own thing…I don’t know why he still automatically assumed the guy did it…even though if the guy did do this…WHY would the dude put a photo of himself as a child…?

Editor Kenny is best character

[@Tysard]

Alright, that is my favorite editor reaction to anything. Thank you EmKay editor.

[@michaelcross3744]

Man shits hitting hard lately. Between seeing something on my favorite show where these two characters who lost it all basically find a bonding moment in it with the message "you're not alone" and repeatedly finding things that show others who went above and beyond and got burned for it... My experience happened over 7 months ending in December and I've spent the last week recovering from a self destructive state from it. My point in all that is a combo of "it's nice to know in the worst of things I'm not alone" and passing the message of "if you're going through or have been through this, i hope you understand you're not alone" ❤

[@imafuckingkms]

About that ring situation, I agree with Robin (as a female). My mother bought the wedding rings for her and my father. She said she got the set (I think of 3 rings) of rings for under R4000. (approximately 214, 70 USD). But then again, she bought it in like.. The year 2004. But still.

[@wmderemer]

Love the missed censor at 19:43... emkay needs to release MORE of their stuff uncensored (though I admit the sound-effect and word-substitution censorship can be funny too)

[@evelynvslife]

31:29 that listing is in Australia and that is highly illegal here. I would straight up report this to the fair work commission.

[@unknown20005]

dang that bit about going above and beyond with what you have and can offer hits home specifically in the video game’s i play sometimes the games have stuff like alliances or guilds or whatever and no matter what i do or how active i am i often find myself still getting kicked out and replaced and yeah maybe my progression is not as fast as others but i am talking about those games that practically force pay to win content down your throat daily and me not having the money to spend on games means that my progression is going to be alot slower then everyone else one game i actually quit last week i had spent at least 5 hours playing it when there was other stuff i could of been playing to help out the alliance i was in and when i went to sleep after being sleep deprived just to play the game i woke up the next day to find myself kicked out and replaced despite the amount of time i spent on that game working to help out i think alot of games with groups and teams dont value people like me that put in so much daily effort and time trying to help out

[@Galaxychad]

15:50 my dad works in the air force and he wouldn't even ask if there was a discount because he just found it weird.

[@Shannessa]

1:39 Female here ✋ And honestly, I don’t care if my boyfriend proposes to me with a Ring Pop, it would be funny as all heck!!! As long as the wedding ring looks cool and lasts, I really don’t care how much it cost.

I've had this happen so many times as a chef I've literally signed contracts got full time work pulling in 46 - 60 hours a week and expected to do 3 jobs for the price of 1.... I dropped them jobs ain't worth the stress

[@KensNotReal]

@13:00 People shouldn't be allowed to deny strangers access to their homes to use the pool the owner pays for and maintains. People shouldn't be allowed to have cars unless they leave the keys inside so strangers who don't own a car can freely use it whenever they want. People shouldn't be allowed to have more than one set of clothes unless they allow strangers to come inside their house whenever they want and borrow any clothes at any time. People should be allowed to have things unless everyone else in the world can have access to use those things. Also, 100% this bitch is the kind that would let her kids run wild in a pool, not pay any attention to them, have one get hurt or even drown, and then blame/try to sue the pool owner who wasn't home and never gave them permission to be there.

[@nikitatavernitilitvynova]

I've had a messed up drink at Starbucks at least three times. I've never drank any because it was either not my taste or dangerous. I'd always try to speak up as soon as possible despite being an absolute doormat and a people pleaser. I asked immediately once because the lady forgot to change the milk to oatmilk. It's not just a preference of mine but I'm also lactose intolerant which makes it worse. So I immediately went to the cashier as soon as I noticed the inconsistency in the bill. And the cashier was super apologetic. Since the drink was half made they were able to salvage it. Another time they straight up made another drink. My drinks of choice are very simple. An iced or hot small latte with oatmilk. And the guy handed me an americano. I told him he messed up. He read on the cup and made a new drink. The third time I got really pissed. The lady mistook three of the same drinks as frappuccinos and added whipped cream on them. I tried to ask the lady which kind of whipped cream she used on top. She didn't answer me or didn't understand me for some reason. And offered to do a new drink all together. The other lady said to just take out the whipped cream and it was all good. I would've drank it as is if it didn't have milk in it. Since I can't drink it! I think it also happened on my birthday. What a good day to have.

I like the fact that the editor of EmKay is an Ereshkigal fan from Fate/Grand Order, really knows the pain of Eresh working tirelessly and without pay sorting the souls in the underworld

[@helixneek3153]

Eresh is already a content creator so she's perfect for the job lol

Editor Kenny being an Ereshkigal appreciator is itself appreciated!

19:33 Reminder that just cause someone has nice things doesn't mean they aren't homeless or in a bad finance spot. They could be things they prioritized over a house or something they had before. But they totally took advantage of how much food they could get.

My fav part was the Emkay's editor's response 😂 don't know why but the longer the bit went, the more it cracked me up

[@Mimi-kg7ob]

1:55 As one of the girls, I can say I definitely don’t care about how much money is spent on a ring. Like shit I don’t even want a diamond in mine if I ever get engaged. Just a gold basic ring. Honestly I don’t care about the ring, if ring is only thing you care about when getting engaged and then married…maybe it’s not the ring that’s the problem☠️

[@Mimi-kg7ob]

Agreed on everything you just said. And I personally just don’t think a big diamond ring would be practical, like how the heck you do anything?? Wearing gloves or getting stuck on towels etc

16:15 As someone from a military family that utilizes the military discount, my active duty father would NEVER request a military discount when making purchases like this. How humiliating for that buyer.

18:12 imo this isnt terrible, of course im always scared of asking for more when ive already asked for a favor, but i think if this was just worded better it would be more clear. "hey, thanks for the eggshells! if its not too much trouble, would you mind rinsing them too next time? thanks so much." just seems like an older person not quite understanding tone over text
