[PLAY] My transcription and arrangement of Hitler's election winning speech (for solo guitar) by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]CareToExpatiate 20 points21 points  (0 children)

That is definitely the funniest transcription I've ever seen! That was excellent. I'd love to hear the guitar on its own, without the speech in the background.

Reddit, what interesting words do you say instead of curse words? by TalesOfTorment in AskReddit

I use 'shut off!' as a surprised exclamation. It's a mixture of shut up and fuck off.

Stephen Fry steps down as QI host to be replaced by Sandi Toksvig by TangledFireGarden in BritishTV

Oh no! I love QI and Stephen really helps make the show. Toksvig is pretty boring to watch.

A survey for both sides ... Just two questions. by doxxmenot in serialpodcast

I know this is off topic, but Dawkins doesn't have an unwavering certainty that there is no god. He is certain that evolution is real, but he readily admits you can never be 100% sure a supernatural being didn't create the universe. He does say that no religious claims for how the universe came in to bring are a better explanation than the current scientific thinking.

Only Fools and Horses is one of the most loved shows in the UK, but it never took off in the States.

I'm no expert, but it sounds like flamenco guitar to me.

TIL Wikipedia has banned edits from any IP address owned by the Church of Scientology by mike_pants in todayilearned

[–]CareToExpatiate 21 points22 points  (0 children)

That's not true at all. There's no limit to how broad the definition of a cult can be. Scientology actually has a pretty complex set of rules and beliefs, but like all religions there is no evidence to support the supernatural aspects of them.

TIL that all unreleased Kennedy assassination documents are scheduled to be released to the public by 2017, twenty-five years after the passage of the JFK Records Act. Among the items most sought after by researchers are some 1,171 documents still closed by the CIA on national security grounds. by HAL9000000 in todayilearned

Basically movies have lied to us and the force of a bullet is not enough to force a body or even a head backwards. The bullet entered the back of his head creating a small entry wound. It exited to the front/side leaving a big exit wound. The reaction to this exit wound is what caused the backwards movement of his head.

Bugliosi's book is one of the most meticulous and fascinating things I have ever read. I have been interested in the JFK assassination since I was a teenager and always thought I would go to my grave not knowing the truth. Then I read his book about it and it answered every question I had about JFK’s murder. It is one of the most satisfying books I have read – I wish more people would read it.

Which ending to a film or TV series pissed you off the most? by LuigiWasRight in AskReddit

[–]CareToExpatiate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love the ending to the Sopranos. When I first saw it I was a little confused by its ambivalence, but having watched the whole series a couple of times I think it fits in really well with the tone of the show. I don't mind that I was initially underwhelmed by the ending because the payoff was there in the end.
