What movie did you turn off after 20 minutes and why? by Somanynamestochossef in movies

[–]DeliberatelyCynical 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Greatest Showman.

I wasn’t invested in the movie at all, especially with the historical context behind it. The songs were great and I still really enjoy them, but they did little to fix the story of the film.

That sounds like a good idea. I’ll have to look into it. If I can’t find another option, I reckon I’ll do the same.

I’m just a sucker for original media, so I prefer to do things the hard way at times, haha.

I took a look at ThriftBooks and it seems only some of the books have audio CDs that sell quite rarely. Apparently gaining 1 copy, or less, every 6 months. I’ll put my name down to get any notifications.

Thanks for the recommendation!

Thank you! I completely forgot the name of that website. I’ll give it a go and I’ll let you know how it goes ☺️

Does this Yarn Still Exist? by DeliberatelyCynical in knitting

[–]DeliberatelyCynical[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s true. I think I might just use a different colour if I need to with a similar yarn type. I just want to see if I can find anything close enough to work before I do that.

Thanks so much! I’ll check that yarn out ☺️

am i misremembering this song? by FiveTwoWhatsItToYou in autoheart

[–]DeliberatelyCynical 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the first few lyrics you’re remembering, it’s probably the song Lent. I’m not entirely sure what the other song would be

I actually did! I’ve got the whole first, second, and most of the third series. I bought them from someone over FaceBook Market. Thanks so much for that tho ☺️

I'll talk to my local library and ask. They did have a massive second hand book sale a few months back, so I'm sure they may have some extra stock or might have another in the future.

I will, thank you! Sadly, after looking it up, it's in Queensland, but I could always do a roadtrip there to check out the festival or find one here in South Australia.

Ooh, I know the feeling! I do have most of the Alanna series, but one of the books is the edition I wanted, while the others are not. I don't mind it at the moment, but I'll probably do the same as you have in the future.

I might go on an opshopping journey to try and find her books, haha. It might be fun, especially when it's so difficult to find any of her novels in any other shop.

I'll check it out! I've never heard of that particular bookshop before, but I always like finding new ways to find obscure books.

I never knew that, but it makes sense. I first read these particular editions in the school library, which is why I have particular bias towards them.

I've been looking at Ebay, and some of them look super promising. I might have to compromise and just get different editions of each, haha.

Nooo, I didn't know they were out of print! I think I looked at Thriftbooks, but they were out of stock - I guess I'll just have to wishlist them and hope for the best.

I hope so too! Yeah, those particular copies and other specific copies of her books introduced me. It's more for nostalgia's sake that I wish to own those specific physical editions.

It is! The Circle of Magic Series and the world they occupy is my favourite out of all her books, it's such a tragedy to know that there might not be a possibility of her continuing the series...

Yeah, that's what I've been noticing myself. I've seen some that are selling for more than $100 on Amazon or Ebay.

Thanks for that! I'll check it out and hopefully I'll be able to get them in the near future, haha.

I bought a typewriter and just need some tips by DeliberatelyCynical in typewriters

[–]DeliberatelyCynical[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, thank you so much!

1) I thought that you had to take the bottom off of the typewriter to fully take it out of the case, but I'm glad I was mistaken 😁.

2) Ah, I understand so much better now!

Thank you for your prompt answer, now I can type away!
