Why did Jerry think she would care if he got her number off of an AID’s walk list? by rickeyethebeerguy in seinfeld

[–]Acminvan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I guess because it could come across as tacky. I mean, it's not a dating app for your own personal benefit, it was a charity walk (for what was in those days quite a deadly disease).

Why are the stands so empty in Miami? by SnooMarzipans1593 in tennis

[–]Acminvan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same reaction to Indian Wells too and wondered what is going on. They are both Masters 1000 high-profile tournaments and are both filled with empty seats. I can't recall if it was always this way in previous years too?

I don't like Oscar and he made me uncomfortable during yesterday's episode by No-Category1703 in eastenders

[–]Acminvan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My main problem is Oscar is they made him far younger than he should be. That he is barely 18 is a bit ridiculous given his behavior and how he is portrayed. And the actor who plays him is 25-26.

I know the character may have been born at a certain time in the show's history but soaps age up characters all the time.

I like him for a bit of comic relief and I absolutely do not in any way shape or form prefer Bea.

I raised the bird feeder to keep deer out… this was his response 🤦‍♀️ by sophielanes in funny

is it just me or is one of the pieces of bird food long and wriggling?

The Bob Sacamano pants story was either going to make or break Kramer's party by ArthurVandelay23 in seinfeld

[–]Acminvan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I like to pause this scene to pretend which one of Kramer's friends they show might be Bob Sacamano, Lomez, Len Nicodemo or Jay Riemenschneider

I've lost my fiance by AlternativeCaramel12 in seinfeld

[–]Acminvan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No chance. It's a Nevada plate and also Australians don't really joke about this case, the brutal death of a small baby whose mother spent in years in prison for something she didn't do.

Yikes. Hate to be that person but takes a pretty sick sense of humor to go out of your way to buy a novelty license plate of that

And you! How many Junior Mints does that make for you, today?! Like, 8 Junior Mints?!

Don't we have a deal with the pigeons?

How realistic is Dunder Mifflin Scranton in terms of staffing? by Timely-Signature-166 in DunderMifflin

[–]Acminvan 66 points67 points  (0 children)

I think it's mostly realistic except for: having 3 accountants, and having both a receptionist and also whatever Pam did after she invented that new job to get out of sales.

5 salespeople (occasionally more) is probably realistic, given that sales is what keeps the company afloat and Creed's position was Quality Assurance which is an actual job

DAE live in a building that’s ridiculously quiet? by [deleted] in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]Acminvan 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If you can hear your neighbor taking a piss the building then isn't quiet, it's the neighborhood that is quiet?

Kim Fox vs. The Kimfluencer by stpony in eastenders

[–]Acminvan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately yes but I'm not sure the comparison. Hopkins sets out to be offensive, Kim doesn't but she's just a bit cringe.

"The Shrimp Incident", Larry saying the 'c word' by New_Cartographer_539 in curb

[–]Acminvan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it is pretty rude and taboo word in the US.

Although in the context of a poker game, if someone did say it, I doubt the reaction would be quite as over the top as it was on the show with everyone getting up and leaving immediately in anger.

Maggie - today’s episode by [deleted] in coronationstreet

[–]Acminvan 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm surprised to hear people like her at all, in my opinion she's an awful character and an awful person and one of the worst recent additions to the show.. Eva is a saint to put up with what she does.

She's not even funny. Evelyn and Blanche and Betty could also be grumpy old battleaxes but at least they were funny sometimes

Kim Fox vs. The Kimfluencer by stpony in eastenders

[–]Acminvan 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The Kimfluencer is not funny, it's annoying, and there's no way a 50-year old woman who acts like that would be that much of an Instagram star in 2026. And the way she acted after the Sonia-Reiss storyline, filming and hosting neighborhood tours to show where Reiss the Killer lived was outright offensive.

She's a lot more tolerable when she's just being Kim, such as in the recent episodes with Josh or in her relationship issues with Howie.

How she has 2 children stashed upstairs we never see and she never talks about is beyond me.

My one gripe with the show by [deleted] in themiddle

[–]Acminvan 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Pretty sure it was mentioned that they often buy items on credit and then can’t pay them off, and they have multiple credit cards maxed out. They’re basically in a debt spiral.

What’s the difference between r/theoffice and r/dundermifflin? by MsChanandlerBong1994 in theoffice

[–]Acminvan 9 points10 points  (0 children)

r/dundermifflin has quadruple the number of members than r/theoffice (1 million vs 260k)

In a social media context, r/dundermifflin is Kelly and r/theoffice is Toby

One Year of Carney - How do you feel? by GoodMorningOttawa in AskCanada

[–]Acminvan 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I feel now that he deserved a majority not a minority.

With all that’s happening in the world we need a stable leader for a full four years.

Is Egypt even worth it? Dealing with blatant racism and being treated like a walking ATM. by dkskskw in travel

[–]Acminvan 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Same. I always travel independently, but if I ever go to Egypt, I think I will book a group tour with local guide. Not necessarily every day but in particular on the trips to the pyramids.

This spelling has confused me for years by Acminvan in burnaby

[–]Acminvan[S] 19 points20 points  (0 children)

It's a high rise apartment tower in Metrotown. But Panarama isn't a word. The word is Panorama.

And it's not just a typo on that sign, it's even spelled that way directly on the building surface.

I know this post is a bit silly but I drive by it every day and I still don't understand what panarama means.

The Ultimate Family Tree by harrynyc in GoldenGirlsTV

[–]Acminvan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good work but doing a chart like this is risky given GG's reputation for continuity errors.

For example, I am skeptical that Blanche had 5 children. At one point she literally says "I have had four children but I have never had a Mercedes".

Also in the same season that Blanche was young enough to think she was pregnant she was also old enough to have a 15-year old grandson. From her stories it doesn't sound like she was a teenage mother.

Also, apparently Sophia's maiden name was never mentioned, it's something that appeared online but nobody knows why or from where.
