          All nouns in languages like latin have genders so the person you are talking to is probably a native latin speaker learning english

      Hijacking this reply to talk about estate jewelry! It has a better history, it’s probably more well-made, it’s often more beautiful, and it’s cheaper. Plus, you’re recycling!

      LPT: Silicone rings are superior in every way if you use your hands at all for anything. I have never taken mine off. Meanwhile I just fidgeted all day with the fancy one. So uncomfortable.

      Plus the good ones go for like $20. The cheap ones are like $8 for pack of 5.

      De Beers has spent a lot of money to make them not the first thing you think about.

        I tried silicone rings and didn’t like the feeling. I just put the ring on a carabiner when I work and put it back on when done.

        I have a handful of silicone rings and I hate them all.

        I do a lot of work with my hands and silicone rings are the only ones I can wear at work. But it’s the first thing I take off when I get home.

        They just don’t slide the same.
