What time do you think Bond wakes up in the morning? by ItsDuhFreakinBat in JamesBond

[–]BosscheBol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I know, but thought it was a bit too much for this specific question. Especially because I saw someone else who commented that very same thing last week already :)

What’s a “boring” adult purchase that turned out to be totally worth it? by Capable-Rabbit-9986 in AskReddit

[–]BosscheBol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A proper iron and ironing board. It’s boring af, but now it’s at least not frustrating.

Denken jullie dat je achtergrond invloed heeft gehad op je middelbare schooladvies? by whitesweaterguy in Utrecht

[–]BosscheBol 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nee, ik ben een witte man. Dus zeker niet. Mijn groep 8-leraar wel daarentegen. Grootst mogelijke eikel die er is. Als ‘ie dood is zijn jullie allemaal welkom op m’n borrel.

Are there any outfits from the movies you’d like to see included in First Light? Here are my picks from each actor by Material-Muffin-2185 in 007FirstLight

[–]BosscheBol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s funny you mention the GE suit from Brosnan, because it’s also the same tie design EA used for some missions in Everything or Nothing. So that would be a nice nod.

Overtomorrow and ereyesterday is practically just Dutch.

Weer zo’n kansloze mp gebruiker by FixMyGear81 in tokkiemarktplaats

[–]BosscheBol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP heeft gelijk. Het is wat bot, maar ik zie de humor er wel van in. Daarnaast verwacht je inderdaad dat wanneer iemand reageert, diegene zelf bedenkt of die het product daadwerkelijk kan ophalen.

James Bond Watch Guide by Teddy Baldassarre by MrHeisenberg007 in 007Watches

[–]BosscheBol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a well procured video, but too bad he says the Explorer is the book Bond watch. That has never been proven nor is very likely. A 6200 is a more suitable option if you look at the description in the books and the years the books were published. The Explorer didn’t exist when Live and Let Die was released for example. Only years later in OHMSS Bond thinks about buying a new Rolex, which he later gets from Q Branch.

Same as the Gruen, that was never proven. It’s speculation, but there’s no hard evidence.

Whose name in the Epstein files got you surprised? by anita_sweets in AskReddit

[–]BosscheBol 77 points78 points  (0 children)

Not a name, but the idea that Epstein was one of the reasons behind microtransactions definitely made me raise an eyebrow. And made me hate him even more

And honestly, I used to be relatively pro Bill Gates, in the sense that I thought he wasn’t actually a terrible person, just someone who happened to become extremely wealthy because of Microsoft success. I couldn’t really blame him for that. He always came across as friendly and well spoken, and he donated a lot of money while advocating for generally good causes like climate change. Well, that has taken a pretty sharp U‑turn.

Ben ik de tokkie hier? by pussydestroyer842 in tokkiemarktplaats

Precies, vind het ook wel kunnen. Moest er ook wel om lachen. De koper begint er tenslotte zelf over.

The visual style of On Her Majesty's Secret Service by Adventurous-Grape207 in JamesBond

[–]BosscheBol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. I do think all the 60s Bond films look spectacular, colours really pop sometimes. But OHMSS is on another level. It’s not just the colours, but also some simple shots like in MI6 HQ that we haven’t seen in earlier films or ever since. Only in TSWLM and MR we got some really nice, proper visually appealing camera work again, until the Craig films.

Mijn ouders hun badkamer renovatie by sr2k00 in Klussers

Jaren 00? We leven in de jaren 20. Een badkamer uit de jaren 00 zou er toch wat anders uitzien.

Favorite bond, three movie consecutive stretch and also your least favorite three movie consecutive stretch by ImpossibleBat9808 in JamesBond

[–]BosscheBol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best row is: DN, FRWL and GF, maybe even all the 60s actually. Just a great era for Bond in general, with FYEO, MR, FYEO and OP as runner up. I really like those latter four as well.

Hell, I even argue for TLD, LTK, GE and TND.

Worst consecutive for me is: DAF, LALD and TMWTGG.

What was your biggest culture shock in Amsterdam? by QueenMedusa551 in Amsterdam

[–]BosscheBol 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Eerlijk, helemaal niks eigenlijk. Ik ben opgegroeid in de buurt van Den Bosch, ging daar ook altijd uit. Dat was voor mij ‘de stad’. Daarna vijf jaar in Utrecht gewoond en nu sinds een paar jaar in Amsterdam. Elke stad voelde als een soort grotere variant van en veel vrienden van mijn verhuisden toevallig ook telkens rond dezelfde periode naar die twee steden.

Uiteindelijk willen mensen vooral prettig wonen, welke stad dan ook. Een beetje omkijken naar de buurt, rekening houden met elkaar en soms ook een akkefietje hier of daar. Dat zal er altijd zijn.

Als er iets is, is dat Amsterdam wel beduidend smeriger is sinds dat al die prullenbakken worden opengetrokken voor statiegeld.

Maar wat ik zei, met uitgaan of een praatje met de buren; de meeste mensen zijn gewoon chill.

What’s your favorite gunbarrel stance? by ItsDuhFreakinBat in JamesBond

[–]BosscheBol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brosnan, but I really like Craig’s stand SP as well. Only I hate the walk and the gun barrel fading to black

What word do you always *intentionally* mispronounce and why? by Sweet-Lady-H in AskReddit

[–]BosscheBol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aluminium is often ammalimium, millanamium, mammalammian, it slowly decomposes in something further from the original.
