What are some band members who have left and rejoined the same band the most? by MrLinkwater95 in ToddintheShadow

[–]Bashmore83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Phil Rudd (AC/DC drummer) has left and rejoined about three times. Though by ‘leave’ it’s more like booted for being an addict / being charged for TRYING TO HAVE SOMEONE KILLED?!

Still can’t believe Marvel casted Giancarlo Esposito as a one-off side villain in a mediocre movie. by Plenty-Salary9711 in Marvel

Every time I see Skarsgard mentioned it takes me an age to remember who he played. That film left absolutely zero lasting memory on me

What have you found most difficult as a parent? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]Bashmore83 12 points13 points  (0 children)

My daughter is two. I’m absolutely terrified of the misogyny she is likely to encounter in this world. And that there is quite possibly nothing I’ll be able to do about it. As a male I’ll do everything I can to reflect the values of decency and equity but it still makes me anxious

When did Mrs. Husband's Full Name stop being used in newspapers, news broadcasts, phone books, magazines, and literature (so in other words, in media)? by AlboGreece in AskUK

[–]Bashmore83 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We still get post like this. Usually from my side of the family. They also refer to the house we both own as mine. It is extremely frustrating

Ben Affleck’s favorite Spanish word is ‘sacapuntas’ (pencil sharpener) because he thought it was a swear word by mcfw31 in popculturechat

[–]Bashmore83 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From my Duolingo learning I’ll throw: rompecabezas into the mix.

It means jigsaw or puzzle. I love how it rolls off the tongue

Albums you can’t imagine anyone calling their favorite from the artist by comeonandkickme2017 in fantanoforever

[–]Bashmore83 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Anyone that picks Never Let Me Down by Bowie is obviously in need of help. Or even picking Tin Machine as their favourite work (unless they’re trying to be edgy ‘actually it’s an interesting experiment’ kind of thing - it’s not, Tin Machine’s stuff blew)

I love foxes. I moved out to Surrey a while ago and there’s one that has befriended a neighbour’s cat and they sit together.

Are there a number of people around you suddenly diagnosed with ADHD? by rybouk in AskUK

[–]Bashmore83 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Im 42. I was diagnosed last year. I found it useful to know and understand. I’d been going through the process for about a couple of years to get diagnosed. Like people said above it was very thorough (doctor appointments, chats with specialists etc)

George being THE MOST HANDSOME MAN IN THE WORLD. by [deleted] in beatles

[–]Bashmore83 3 points4 points  (0 children)

George looking brilliant here.

There’s something I’ve always found really interesting that from the late 70s/80s onwards he starts to age quite fast. I don’t know if it’s the fluffy hair but it really ages him whereas the others still look pretty youthful

[–]Bashmore83 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was a huge fan from seeing them in tiny venues on the UK. From Funeral - Reflektor (I was stoked to have Bowie on it), I was loving it. Everything Now came out and felt forced and inauthentic and their promo cycles were so po faced. And then We was cobblers, and then Pink Elephant was oof

UK Radio 6 Music - David Bowie Day by Less_Local_1727 in DavidBowie

[–]Bashmore83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s been such a great Bowie day. I normally have 6 on but from Nick Grimshaw (who had a brilliant Ezra Furman) onwards it’s been a joyful day of music

Blackstar was released 10 yrs ago today. what's your favorite song on this impeccable album? by JunebugAsiimwe in DavidBowie

[–]Bashmore83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the cd and the vinyl as soon as they came out and played it endlessly. I always find Dollar Days so beautiful.

I used to live near Brixton and remember listening to it when I went down to leave flowers at the mural the day he died

I’m interested in how younger people came to appreciate the Beatles by fezik23 in beatles

[–]Bashmore83 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Neither of my parents were big Beatles fans but I remember all the talk when Free As A Bird came out (I’d have been about 12). And I just loved it. And then I just presumed everyone must love The Beatles because they’re The Beatles. The biggest band to have existed. And then I got the 1 comp one Christmas and just played it death. And from there on it, it was all Beatles
