She Thinks I Will Dare (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 8 October 2020 18:41 (three years ago) link

Sorry if this is off topic, but...

What if I told you the best sheet thread count was 250?

Crazy, right?

All over the internet, you see sheet sets with 1,500 thread count, and the more the better, right? So why is 250 ACTUALLY the best?

Here’s the deal:

Anything above 400 thread count isn’t really a high thread count sheet. It’s actually just a sheet with multi-ply thread.

When you see a thread-count higher than 400, the number is nearly always a lie.

i honestly never thought of it that way.

I have blisters on my feet from the new hiking boots I ordered online without getting to try them on first, and I am TIRED of ordering things online without getting to try them on first, because there's just always problems and I hate returning things.

YES I am making things all about my feet. My feet! Mine! on #OneThread no one can stop me hahahahahahahah read about my feet and weep!

Branwell with an N, Thursday, 8 October 2020 18:54 (three years ago) link

I have given up on expensive hiking boots that fuck up your feet and start falling to pieces after a few months. I just get hard wearing, sturdy Magnum trainers or shoes from army surplus sellers on e-bay for around £20. Much better vfm!

calzino, Thursday, 8 October 2020 19:01 (three years ago) link

But they were the same brand as the last pair of hiking boots, which I got for like £30 at TK Maxx? And those boots were excellent, they were so comfortable and lasted for about 3 years, which is unheardof quality for cheap boots!

I've also been trying to break in a pair of solovairs since the start of lockdown and fml I have never worn such painful shoes. They are *more* painful than Docs which is saying something!

Branwell with an N, Thursday, 8 October 2020 19:05 (three years ago) link

i hate shoes in general but have not yet gone down the dark path to vibrams

Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Thursday, 8 October 2020 19:16 (three years ago) link

I went through a period of getting 2nd hand docs on e-bay thinking at least they last forever. And even when I put an extra soft insole in them, they were causing me agony - especially in right foot with has a metal plate screwed to ankle.

Hey, I want to test threadbanning -- apparently stet has been having trouble replicating the problem of that function not working. Who want to volunteer to be banned from this thread? Srs call for volunteers.

Sorry to hijack, forks, I'll start a new thread for this if you want me to.

this is a fun thread to experiment with threadbanning.

i changed my nick because it was before it was easier to clear out bookmarks and i had amassed something like 8k bookmarks and wanted to start over. but yeah, i'm forks and am fine with people calling me whatevers. i should likely change my display name but you know, fuck the NRA

The placebo effect of being ephemerally threadbanned has made me feel twenty years younger.

One day a year, ilx should consolidate to a single thread. A holiday just for us. It’s about unity, coming together

Where are we talking about the new Mel Gibson dark comedy "Fatman", where Gibson plays a grizzly Santa Clause trying outwit an assassin (played by Boyd Crowder) hired a by a kid (alt-right Ben Shapiro) who got coal in his stocking?

Quiet Storm Thorgerson (PBKR), Thursday, 8 October 2020 21:27 (three years ago) link

Also, one thread sucks because I am old and despite spending ridiculous time on ILX couldn't keep up with the Slack at all.

Guys, with all due respect, I prefer the #onethread hashtag to the actual onethread, especially now that the placebo Pac-Man pill aura of being ineffectually threadbanned has worn off.

Absolutely not. Good fences make good neighbours, and good Zing features... even more so.
