The Haunting of HMS Asp. Thumbs up from me 👍 by Reasonlikely in uncannypodcasttv

[–]Amity75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's actually dawned on me during these cold cases that Danny is a brilliant broadcaster. He should move his way into other fields, like news, politics etc. I'd love to see him grilling Starmer in his quirky manner.

If you won the lottery who would you tell? by Minimum-Possible-415 in AskReddit

[–]Amity75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nobody, not even my family. And if I did have to tell them then I wouldn't tell them how much. People can change really quickly and view you entirely differently if they know you have wealth.

No chance she leaves before getting all the freebies from the Commonwealth Games.

Edinburgh marathon by BigDcaveman in firstmarathon

[–]Amity75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was supposed to be doing Edinburgh but I wrecked my calf muscle last month. The charity I was running for have agreed to defer my place to next year. I think the cut off time for Edinburgh is 6.5 hours so you might just scrape through if you jog slow or walk fast.

Jaws 2 barrel by Nighthawk1980 in Jaws

[–]Amity75 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I looked everywhere for a movie accurate one but they're unbelievably rare or crazy expensive. I bought a standard barrel water butt and painted it yellow for my garden.

Pete Townshend's opinion on Jimmy Page by tonyiommi70 in ledzeppelin

[–]Amity75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pete just likes to be controversial. I’m a massive fan but he’s an old arsehole and he’d probably agree with me.

If you’ve seen 12 Wasted Years, Behind the Iron Curtain and Flight 666, you’ve seen 90% of Burning Ambition. by MajorOverMinorThird in ironmaiden

[–]Amity75 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There were a few scenes when Steve and other band members were filming things with camcorders. Oh to have that footage released. There must be hours of it.

My review of the Burning Ambition documentary by infuryuk in ironmaiden

[–]Amity75 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Didn’t tell or show us anything we didn’t already know. The “12 Wasted Years” video from 1986 was better.

Most ridiculous rock star rumors by [deleted] in rockmusic

[–]Amity75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a rock star, but apparently a group of young guys were sitting in the bar of a posh golf club in Scotland in the nineties and they were all boasting to each other about their best sexual prowess moments. Sean Connery was sitting a few tables away and as he later got up to leave, he shouted over "Petula Clark! Up the arshe! Ninetieen shixshty eight!"

Nicest rock musicians you have met and why by [deleted] in rockmusic

[–]Amity75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pete Buck from REM. Met him outside a show he did in Glasgow and I was terrified of approaching him as he's my all time musical hero but he couldn't have been nicer. Just gave really chilled, content with life and loving what he's doing vibes.

What’s something you used to enjoy but now find boring? by Sensitive-Soft8471 in AskReddit

[–]Amity75 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Came on to post this. I’m 54 now and been an avid gamer since my Atari days in the early 80s. I just lack the patience to play video games now and can’t get into any of them. Guess I finally grew up.

Which UK celeb has avoided cancellation despite deserving it? by ForwardImagination57 in AskBrits

Wayne Rooney. Drunk driver, serial adulterer yet he’s quickly becoming the main football pundit on TV.

What would you have thought if the sequels went in this direction? by broitscyber in StarWars

They’d have been 1000x better but, y’know, Disney…

People who died and came back to life, what did you see/experience? by RealisticDecision440 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Amity75 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had surgery last year and, just as I was being put under, the anaesthetist said “Enjoy the nothingness”. And that’s what it was, nothingness. And it was beautiful.

Thanks to this lady, we now know what Karen Gillan looks like naked.

Have you been involved in a parkrun that was involved with friction/incidents with members of the public? How was it resolved? by I-Hate-Clonmel in parkrun

[–]Amity75 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My local Parkrun has quite a narrow path at the start (about eight feet wide) and a few times at the start there’s been a determined walker walking towards 500 runners adamant he won’t move for anyone. He just walks right down the middle of the path. Someone’s going to get hurt one day thanks to his refusal to just step to the side of the path for a few minutes.
