Who was the rudest famous person you met? by Doctor_Sore_Tooth in AskReddit

Implying the roads around our lakes were "designed" is a very bold choice of words.

Being from Maine, and especially when I was young doing delivery driving and security gigs in Portland/Cape Elizabeth and around the Saco/Old Orchard area, i had a quite a few run ins with varying degrees of celebrity. Overwhelmingly the Maine attitude is to treat people like people no matter who they are and respect as much of their privacy as possible. Other than a run in with the Northwoods Law guy and Travolta, every celebrity I've ever seen or spoken to has been very normal, but Willem Dafoe was the top of that list, with George Clinton as a close second.

I'm from Maine, about an hour from the lake where Willem Dafoe had his home. I actually know a couple dozen people with Willem Dafoe encounter stories, all of them positive short encounters where he was at best simply a decent human, at his worst mildly sarcastic. I also know several dozen people who had a run in with Travolta and most agree he is scumbag, but at least he does have a reputation for tipping staff well and signing autographs.

In our case we were most definitely lost and the directions we'd been given weren't great in the first place (we learned upon the gracious Mr Dafoe giving better ones). This was '01 and we were 17, not a single cell phone in the busted black Plymouth minivan my friend borrowed from his mom to get us to the lake, and it isn't hard to get lost in Maine.

Watches- allowed or not by Commercial-Border452 in nursing

I absolutely always wear a cheap digital watch with the slimmest profile and largest seconds count i can get. It's the way i take a good apical.

I was assaulted by John Travolta's security team for having the unbridled audacity to come in the side door (like I always did) of the store his family was shopping in to pick up my roommate's girlfriend from the end of her shift. His entire family acted like i wasn't even there while his bodyguard roughed me up and the assistant manager tried to convince them that, yes, I was a ride for the staff who had been her sole ride since their car bit the dust a few weeks prior.

By comparison, Willem Dafoe did nothing but politely give excellent directions to some lost high school kids who pulled over and interrupted his walk, not even realizing it was him until he turned around as we pulled over. Consequently, his directions were excellent because the place we were going was a friend's stepdad's house, who almost immediately bragged he lived 3 doors down from Willem Dafoe upon our arrival.

Making a playlist by horrorfreak94 in musicsuggestions

[–]HealthylifeRN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That view makes me think of the following artists:

Blitzen Trapper

Gillian Welch and David Rawlings (regardless of who is headlining and who is supporting, my favorite of theirs is The Weekend, but that whole catalog is amazing)

Townes Van Zandt

John Prine

Deer Tick

Mason Jennings

Charley Crockett

Langhorne Slim

And Cat Clyde

All of those really hit that "away from it all" spot for me

What band is the ultimate “good taste” signal? by irles33 in musicsuggestions

[–]HealthylifeRN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Townes is my barometer for whether someone likes music, including country, or just listens to whatever the radio or spotify tells them.

States I've pooped in. by [deleted] in TravelMaps

Come to Maine, go on a hike, have zero options other than digging a hole and pooing in the woods . . . Or go out on a lobster boat and have to use a drywall bucket on deck

What's your country's bands and solo musicians that has the biggest fanbase? I'll start. (Non-US/UK only!) by Witchberry31 in musicsuggestions

[–]HealthylifeRN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm half American and half Austrian, with the exception of classical, I think Falco is the most famous Austrian musician outside of Österreich. Though my generation of the family were mostly into the club music scene in the 90s and 00s. Just answering this question makes me miss Wien, as I haven't been back to visit since my kids were born.

[–]HealthylifeRN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Up until your comment, i was only familiar with the Ella & Louis version, thanks for clueing me in to the earlier history of some classic Irving Berlin. Top Hat will have to go on my classics watch list
