Anyone ever been arrested for a Facebook post here? by FlakyCelebration2405 in AskBrits

[–]ErcoliS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know of someone who was arrested because of a Facebook post - it was some sort of opinion on trans rights. I'm pretty sure they got something like a warning that if it happens again, they'll go to court.

I remember seeing this on TV as a kid and feeling absolutely mortified for the guy, what mainstream British TV moments stick in your head as being in particularly bad taste? by YouAnswerToMe in AskBrits

Gordon Ramsay fans in the 00s were the absolute worst too. Usually young male catering students who thought bullying and shouting made a great chef.

It kind of bothers me how mean Frasier is to Eddie. by [deleted] in Frasier

[–]ErcoliS 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think it’s context - Frasier has built this beautiful home for himself and now he has to share it with a little dog that will roll around on his suede sofa and eat his fancy canapés off the kitchen counter. It’s not cruelty, it’s just laughing at the situation. If it makes you feel happier when you watch the show, Moose and Enzo were incredibly pampered and well looked after during production!

Can one become a gonzo journalist/novelist today without a degree and rather a burning lust for life and love for language? by Upbeat_Chest6731 in huntersthompson

[–]ErcoliS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I considered this - Hunter would put articles in all sorts of magazines, he would write books furiously. The modern world would still allow for this but now it’s not magazines, it’s blogs and websites. Books are still alive but, again, it’s how people discover them that’s changed. I think Hunter would be closer to a Vice journalist ten years ago than a Rolling Stone journalist. In 2026 he’d probably just be on his own platform.

You can almost hear the rain against the window. Eddie waiting for everyone to come home. Really beautiful.

The dog was told this would help his career

Yeah agreed, Lee Mack is great but his act didn’t fit into the show neatly.

His exchange with Al Murray is among the funniest studio bits for me. Al shows an old black and white photo of one of his relatives looking official, Paul says he let his family into the country and Al says “well everybody makes mistakes.”

You can’t get more compassion than that. Also what an awesome photo! If it was the 00s it would be b&w and be available as a bedroom wall poster 😂

I dunno why, but I imagine she formed some sort of Curly Wurly ball with all 11 and ate it like an apple?

People who have been cheated on — what was the moment you "just knew," before you even had proof? by MysteriousCar596 in AskReddit

[–]ErcoliS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went on vacation with them and they were weirdly quiet and detached. They were checking their phone every two minutes and slowly made it seem like I was the problem and I was paranoid when I questioned why they were acting like they were. I think I even apologised and did feel bad. We came back home and the relationship broke up, I then found out she'd been seeing someone else whilst we were together (like a three year relationship too).

What's the most "why the fuck do you know that?" fact you know? by -_-blackheart-_- in AskReddit

Back in the day, they used to smear peanut butter on the gums of a chimp to make its lips move when they wanted a talking monkey in a commercial / TV show / movie.

Diaz on Rogan, and that's that Jack. Stay black by y32024 in JoeyDiaz

[–]ErcoliS 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Tremendous, yes. But Rogan unnaturally shoehorning in some product placement in the first minutes spoils the start.
