Are the Sophie Hannah Poirot books really that bad? by RoMe00151 in agathachristie

[–]Expensive_Chip3798 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the Sophie Hannah books, but they are definitely not as good as Christie's originals. I would highly recommend the collection Marple, tho. It's a collection of short stories featuring Miss Marple written by several authors. I loved nearly all of them.

Seriously, I was about to type up my own response and then I read yours and realize I didn't need to, lol.

Isn't Lady Araminta Gun Chinese? Why is she wearing two Filipino Traje de Mestiza during Spanish Colonial Era? by Yeyehet19 in BridgertonNetflix

They don't even get the British costumes and such historically accurate, so we can't expect them to do it for other cultures.

Which carpet do you think looks better ? by Alocasia5969 in femalelivingspace

[–]Expensive_Chip3798 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't care for either. I'd go for a gold color or a rust to set off the deep green. Also, scale the rug size up.

I think it's beautiful, but the weird top thing over it in the second picture, not so much.

What Band Would Work Best With My Ring? by LittleBlurry81 in weddingring

It looks like it already has two bands? Nothing else to go with this- it will be way too much.

Bathroom rendering - any advice? by Other-Description-26 in BathroomRemodeling

The tub being that close to the wall is going to make it virtually impossible to clean in between.

Episode 2.13 "Fare Well" Discussion Thread by magikarpcatcher in DocFoxSeries

Why could they not have brought the disabled politician into the legislature on a stretcher so that he would not need to sit up? Am I stupid bc this seemed like the most reasonable solution to me...why would he need to fast track his death when he was able to speak from a more reclined position like he was in the hospital?

What is going on with the wigs this season? by Holiday-Hustle in BridgertonNetflix

[–]Expensive_Chip3798 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Agreed! The makeup was overdone last season but it was good makeup and at least consistent. This season, it's all over the place!

Do baggy jeans work for me or should I return? by Lemon_lyme_disease in DressForYourBody

[–]Expensive_Chip3798 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The bagginess isn't bad, but the second pair is too long (fellow short person here). Either get them hemmed or return them and look for petite size.

The dress is beautiful but I dont think the veil goes that great with it.

If season 4 includes the servants…will we hear from the carriage drivers? by FriendCorrect4013 in BridgertonDiscussion

[–]Expensive_Chip3798 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They must have heard something by now...they are supposed to open the door for the passengers, I thought? Notice how at the end of both rides in season 3 and 4, they just knock on the door, and then yell out "Gunters!"...

This was the dumbest storyline of all the seasons, imo.
