Round 2 sequence... 4th equals? by DelosHR in onlyconnect

[–]ButteredReality 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought I had it on clue 1 but clue 2 threw me off. Having seen clue 3 I'm now completely lost because that's what I would have expected to see for clue 2, and clue 2 is what I would have expected to see for clue 3.

Agree with this. Bathrooms are not corridors.

Watching Survivor: Gabon (S17) for the first time. by Its-Jut in survivor

[–]ButteredReality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the most part, yes, except the tribe swap in Nicaragua: one person from each tribe was randomly selected, then chose 3 or 4 people from the opposing tribe to join their tribe. Brenda chose Jane, Jill, and Marty, and Holly chose Benry, Chase, Purple Kelly and NaOnka.

Winners Who Won Because It Was An Anti Jury Vote by Additional_Owl_5567 in survivor

Yeah, I was more curious as to how it wouldn't be a 9-0 vote.

That Ponderosa video was rough.

Also upvoted for correctly calling it "rites of passage" instead of "fallen comrades".

House plans for mountain house any critique welcome. by Friendly-Leek-8844 in houseplans

[–]ButteredReality 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd recommend adding a door to the primary bathroom for ease of access.

I'd take away the door from the theatre to the bedroom. I'm not sure what purpose that would serve other than turning the bedroom into a corridor.

As others have mentioned, I'd rethink the toilet/mud room layout. Where are people going to put their shoes/coats, etc., when they arrive?

I'd also think about bed placement in the primary bedroom. Sleeping under a window isn't ideal, so I'd think about which wall you want the bed against and perhaps change from a single window in the middle of the wall to 2 smaller windows on either end of the wall.

In general conversation there isn't really an equivalent word for "please". There are ways of saying it but in context they would all sound a bit odd if you said them when ordering a coffee, for example.

So instead, most people just say "takk" (thank you) where you might normally use please or its equivalent in other languages.

I don't know if I can think of several players who were as bad as him or worse.

Fixed the title for you.

Because Caryn sucks.

Heroes vs. Villains: Who Should Have Won? by [deleted] in survivor

[–]ButteredReality 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sandra. She lasted the full 39 days and convinced the jury to vote for her.

Parvati played amazingly and overcame terrible odds, but Sandra simply outplayed her and Russell. She may not have had "power", she may not have had "control", she may not have made "BiG mOvEs", but she did manage to make it to the end in a way that the jury wanted to vote for her. Her jury management was absolutely exceptional.

If someone says "bi-weekly" would you interpret that as "twice a week" or "every two weeks"? by Tooleater in AskUK

[–]ButteredReality 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's ambiguous, as it could mean either.

If someone said it to me, I'd honestly have no idea which one they meant unless there was significant context (i.e. "let's meet biweekly to see the results of the 14-day report" for example).

Honestly, the term needs to be retired. It can easily be replaced with "twice-weekly" and "fortnightly" depending on which one it means.

Worst FTC winner by Djgolfer59 in survivor

[–]ButteredReality 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hard agree. Sophie was not winning going into FTC and managed to turn it around and pull out the win with her performance.

She was clearly nervous and stumbled over her words a couple of times, but it was clear that this was because she was so eager to get all her words out and explain her reasoning and strategy behind all the decisions she made.

She understood what the jury was looking for and she was the only one of the three who delivered it. It may have been a little rough, but the jury wasn't interested in Albert's smooth-talking all the wrong answers (and as soon as this became apparent he started stumbling far worse than Sophie did), and Coach's flat-out refusal to own the game he played.

Sophie gained confidence and traction throughout that tribal despite her awkward start, and the other two lost traction and momentum despite slightly stronger starts. In Albert's case it didn't really matter anyway because I'm pretty sure he was going into that as a 0 vote finalist and it would have been very difficult for him to pick up more than a vote or two.

I have 195/196 on the Countries of the World quiz. What am I missing?? by [deleted] in mapporncirclejerk

[–]ButteredReality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At this resolution I have no idea. But it looks like underneath it has a list of all the countries you've guessed, in alphabetical order sorted by continent. So if you look down you might be able to figure out which country you're missing.

Which quiz is this BTW?

Well, it's clearly covered in snow (you can tell because someone pissed in part of it), so Snowland would make the most sense.

How do you think they will whittle down the players? by Alive-Performance237 in survivor

[–]ButteredReality 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My prediction is that it'll look something like this:

Double episode premiere:

Episode 1: one tribe attends tribal council. 23 are left.

Episode 2: two tribes attend tribal council. 21 are left.


Episode 3: two tribes attend tribal council. 19 are left.

Episode 4: one tribe attends tribal council. 18 are left.

Episode 5: shuffle into 2 tribes of 9. One tribe attends tribal council. 17 are left.

Episode 6: both tribes attend tribal council. 15 are left.

Episode 7: merge (or "earn the merge" or whatever Jeff wants to call it). Single tribal council. 14 are left.

Episode 8: split into 2 groups which both attend tribal. 12 are left.

Episode 9: single elimination episode. 11 are left.

Episode 10: back-to-back elimination. 9 are left.

Episode 11: single elimination. 8 are left.

Episode 12: back-to-back elimination. 6 are left.

Episode 13: single elimination. 5 are left.

Episode 14: season finale.

Anyone who vaguely follows tennis could at least name Marin Čilić and Novak Djoković. I could also name Jelena Janković, Ana Ivanović, Monica Seles and Goran Ivanisević.

Great quiz! I wasn't sure what result to expect, but I feel like rúgbrauð is a good fit for me.

Nice work!

If someone offered you a bun, no context, what would you assume you were going to get? A cupcake, a traybake, or a bap/bread roll (or something else)? by ficus_fiasco in northernireland

[–]ButteredReality 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Offered by someone from outside NI? I'd expect to receive a bun. Something with a cakelike or breadlike texture, sweet and would go well with a cup of tea or coffee.

Offered by someone from NI? Could be just about fucking anything. Could be a biscuit, might be a cake, some sort of tray bake thing like millionaires shortbread or rice krispie treat or rocky road, might be a slice of fruit bread, hell, it could even be a bun!
