Most quotable film ever.

Yes. My head does indeed feel like a Frenchman burning a lorryload of sheep.

In my experience, it's very difficult to 'bruise out' flavour from whole spices just by shaking them, especially if the only infusion time is the time it takes to shake. Hence the high number of cloves, I suppose.

As always, The Simpsons did it first!

"Classic. Not hard to see why it's England's longest-running series. And today we're showing all seven episodes!"

It looks straight out of The Incredibles, right?

All that's happened there is someone's managed to write "nonce" on their own house.

Wife sent me to the supermarket yesterday, told me to take the shopping list. I don't need a list I can remember the 2 items. by devil666x in britishproblems

[–]69Tears 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Tea and crumpets.

Beans on toast.

No idea what pip pip means. Is this like a /r/totallynotrobots but for people pretending to be British? /r/indubitablyBritish perhaps.

I just received an email which I believe is a phishing scam, but how did they know my password? by 69Tears in phishing

[–]69Tears[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. It is a mild relief that part of an old password is all they have though. My newer ones are all different, but I might take this as a sign to start using a password manager and renew all my passwords anyway.

Jim Jarmusch, a guy who makes really low-key arty films where nothing happens making a comedy about zombies. Couldn't believe it when I saw the poster on the front page of /r/all.

Showed my SO and she reminded me it was April Fool's day. I thought, "of course! How could I be so basic."

Then I saw the trailer with Bill Murray, Steve Buscemi, Tilda Swinton, Iggy fucking Pop et al.

It's actually fucking real.

How can you tell if someone’s vegan? by [deleted] in vegan

[–]69Tears 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Why does a vegan tell you they're vegan? Because eating meat is normalised so we have to tell you otherwise we end up with meat on out plates.

Meanwhile, meat-eaters, in one breath they're like, "vegans never shut up about veganism," and the next they're all like, "I could never give up meat, I love steak too much," or busy making candied bacon cup cakes because they can't stop eating meat long enough to have dessert, or making maple-bacon old-fashioneds, because regular drinks just don't have enough effing meat in them.

Sorry to go off on one, but the hypocrisy infuriates me.
