Stevo985 Posted May 1, 2017 Author VT Supporter Share Posted May 1, 2017 I think it's cool, although I'd agree the font doesn't quite work, particularly on the word "cures" for me. But yeah nice idea. It's the kind of thing that sells in places like Paperchase. Doubt she'd make a fortune but as a hobby it's not bad. She should try wedding stationery and stuff like that.

Ginko Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Came joint-first in a Rick and Morty-themed pub quiz last night. Lost on a tie-breaker but meh, we had fun. Never seen so many people for one of these themed quizzes. If a bomb went off I think half of all Reddit would have been wiped out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginko Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 (edited) I prefer general knowledge quizzes on the whole though I'm significantly worse at them. My general knowledge isn't too bad but there's a gulf between myself and proper serious quizzers. There are a few things I could specialise in though, namely certain tv programs and movies. Rick and Morty is one of them. I was in my nerdy element. Edited May 3, 2017 by Ginko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She asked me to get an 'opinion from a stranger' as obviously I'm biased and her friends are biased. She wants to do it as a hobby as she enjoys it, then try and make a bit of money on the side with small things. Thanks It took me a while to figure out what it says. The "cures" bit especially. It looks quite nice though. @Designer1 is probably the man to ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw some lovely designed tea towels when I went to Skegness last year. I wonder if it was him who designed them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My speciality would definitely be geography though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try and watch the first series first. It'll take an episode or 2 to 'get' the humour and obviously the first episodes introduce you to everything properly.

Chindie Posted May 3, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted May 3, 2017 The second episode is a better intro to the show than the pilot. It's also hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maqroll Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Gruesome story out of Boston yesterday- An engaged couple of doctors were killed in their high rise apartment by someone known to them, according to police. They had their hands bound, but at some point the male was able to text a friend that they were being held at gunpoint and to call 911. The friend called 911 and when police showed up at the door, the suspect started shooting at them. They returned fire and he's in the hospital. The couple had their throats slit and had been "mutilated" and there was blood on the walls. "A message of retribution" was at the scene, and they found torn up pictures of the couple. Yikes.
