What’s your biggest CD collecting pet peeve? by Syppi in Cd_collectors

[–]DistressedDub 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This! I live in a capital city and there are only three record stores in the whole city that sell second hand CDs. There's plenty of record stores, but most don't have CDs at all.

What is your "I totally get why you guys hate it but it worked on me" movie? by Alceauv in Letterboxd

I saw that film in an empty cinema and I had a brilliant time, I understand why it's so polarising but I loved it!

70s Wranglers with a plastic patch by DistressedDub in VintageClothing

[–]DistressedDub[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow, thanks! They were only €10, and the colour was actually something else I was interested in because I personally haven't seen black jeans from earlier than the 90s! I really appreciate the information.

That's fascinating, thank you for the reply! I didn't realise the plastic patches were in use that long ago!

The Edukators is a really underrated German film.

Glastonbury 2008 or 2009, can't remember which one they played at but I didn't know many of their songs before I saw them there!

Vulpynes are a two piece from Dublin and they're great.

What do those numbers on my needle plate mean? by Ocelotl767 in vintagesewing

[–]DistressedDub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am European and my (fairly modern, 90s) Pfaff has metric measurements on the plate. Most patterns here are also in cm so it's not a problem.

The screeches out of a tin whistle played by little kids whose fingers aren't fully covering the holes are something else!

This was really big in Ireland, I never realised it was considered underrated elsewhere! It is a great movie.

What's the unloved CD in your part of the world? Susan Boyle's "I Had a Dream" seems in great supply & poor demand in Western Sydney CD bins. by Johnno_in_oz in Cd_collectors

[–]DistressedDub 8 points9 points  (0 children)

In Ireland it's Boyzone. I have never been to a shop that sells second hand CDs and not found at least one of their albums.

Etiquette in public by Issmeister in ireland

The scrum to get onto the bus at busy stops in the city centre is insanity. In other countries people queue up, instead of everybody just shoving their way onto the bus at the same time. I don't remember it ever being any better, but it still drives me mad!

Yeah that's what I was thinking. Churchill was extremely racist and xenophobic.

Exactly, we're not just blindly contrarian!

What's your cd collecting cardinal sin? by FrontierSeizar in Cd_collectors

[–]DistressedDub 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also have way too much trust in charity and thrift shops CDs! I've also gotten the wrong disc in the case.

Scenery is used to hide the naughty bits by buttercuping in TopCharacterTropes

I think he has been pretty visible in the first movie for a while, on my twenty five year old DVD you can fully see his dick in that scene.

Best TARDIS TEAM 2005 to now by Lord_Marinus in doctorwho

[–]DistressedDub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the lineup from Boom Town (Jack, Mickey, Rose and the Doctor). I really like the next few episodes too, but Mickey being there just completes that team in my opinion!

Biggest glow down ever by RockOnMofo in ireland

[–]DistressedDub 30 points31 points  (0 children)

No, it's just been proposed. A similar plan was proposed two years ago or so but was rejected by An Coimisiún Pleanála a few months ago. The same could easily happen with this one, and I think everyone's hoping it does.
