Describe it however you want. If you have a decent barber, they should understand you fine and work with you.
I've been shy, straight forward, and all manners of sides when asking for a haircut and the biggest issue has only been the occasional language barrier.

Once you're comfortable in a style it'll be easier to use different wording, depending on how you want your style. For example: you most certainly can ask for clipper sizes, like "no. 2 on sides", however if you don't know what you want from the top you could just ask them "a bit short but matching the sides, if you know what I mean?"

Some styles have different options, such as skin fades (usually medium or high here, indicating the point where the fade reaches on the side and back of the head). If you're unsure definitely do not be afraid of asking, if any barber has an issue with working with you they aren't the barbers you want as they're likely to rush the haircut regardless of what you say (in my experience), or only know limited styles/lack broader experience in hairdressing.

If someone left their PC unattended, I'd quickly change all fonts to Comic Sans.

Some of us can't be trusted with such power. I would personally use invisibility to switch items in people's coat pockets. Keys always in the left? Well now they're in the right pocket!

Total anarchy.

The REAL question is how much beans can I feed to a cat, and why does my house smell really bad?

[-] JadenSmith@sh.itjust.works 0 points 5 days ago

I'm actually rather thankful for this entire drama, or rather my cats are.
I was 'this' close to forgetting some ham for their once in a while treat. Thanks, /c/vegan!

This article has completely missed a selling point of e-readers for people like myself: no constant refreshing.

My eye strain, when reading for a long time, doesn't come from the light (or lack thereof), which is evident as a positive of backlit Kindles and other e-readers, though the constant flicker of screens. E-ink solves this issue perfectly, and with every device in that article mentioning "60Hz" on their alternatives I feel as though they've missed a big point of having an e-reader and what exactly constitutes as "paper like" (it's a lot more than just "low/no backlight").

You've been through a fair bit! Sounds like you have built a strong perspective. Your family sounds rather loving.

I'm sorry to read you were treated so poorly during your treatment. I hope you are in a better situation, if not now then in the near future.

I've known this for a while, however I do not wish harm to grey squirrels. This is their war, I don't even know the first thing about squirrel warfare, although I do hope the red squirrels find an alliance to support their freedoms.

Makes sense, though that just gives the impression that this site isn't anything special. I swear there's a million and a half streaming sites by now, and I would bet everyone using FMovies has found clones or alternatives (if they didn't already know of some).

[-] JadenSmith@sh.itjust.works 45 points 1 week ago

I'll be honest, I didn't even know about fmovies until everyone started talking about it here recently. I've just used Torrent sites for downloading, and Stremio for streaming and I have not noticed much hiccups.

Maybe they mean Terminator. I wouldn't be surprised if he is working another job now, the economy is rough.
