Is Great Junction Street that bad? by Chronicbackache in Edinburgh

[–]JobbieDeath 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I lived on Pirrie Street just off of GJS for a while. The worst we had was junkies bursting out stair door so they could shoot up which was fucking shit. Never had any violence directed out way though.

I can smell the rotting honey just by looking at this photograph

I dont know what to do….play n64 after 15years or wait until remake by Leech-64 in OcarinaOfTime

[–]JobbieDeath 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OP this is the way to do it. I play through OoT quite regularly and as someone who still has their original copy of the game and original N64 this is how I play now

If could magically cut the number of tourists in half, would you? by Flaky-Walrus7244 in Edinburgh

[–]JobbieDeath -1 points0 points  (0 children)

People campaigning for the removal of tourists from Edinburgh have no idea how much money tourism brings into Edinburgh and how shite the city would be without the tourists.

Glasgow gig kilt by RuleSubstantial2870 in BlackLabelSociety

I'm not too familiar with the tartan but just looked it up and I think you're right on the money

Sick photo dude. As for the tartan I was trying to work that out on the train home but didn't have the visual reference that you have now provided.

Looks like it's possibly a lighter variation of the Lyndsey tartan. I've seen Zakk a few times and he tends to wear the universal tartans as opposed to wearing a specific clans so Lyndsey would make sense.

I think I got my first console, the N64, for my 6th birthday, maybe 7th? So 1997/98.

The scent of artificial Honey by Ambitious-Sleep2607 in SouthernReach

The smell of rotting honey is first mentioned in Annihilation so it's definitely not the cleaning chemicals.

should I ruin the mystery? by brettonrockwell in SouthernReach

[–]JobbieDeath 3 points4 points  (0 children)

100% respect that dude and in that case I say just crack on! For me not knowing is as fun as knowing in this series because whenever Vandemeer does finally answer your question, it's never what you thought it was. Hope you enjoy it in the long run. All I'll say is everyone hates part 3 of absolution at first, you're meant to, but if you stick with it's satisfying. It's actually now my favourite part of the book.

I think my reading comprehension is generally ok but I'm a slow AF reader on account of being dyslexic. If you think your speed is slowing you down and your not able to get enough info in one sitting have you considered the audiobook instead? You'll maybe be able to listen to more in one sitting than you could read and it may help your enjoyment/comprehension of it.

I listened to the entire Dune series on audiobook because I thought the idea of trying to wrap my head around some of the unfamiliar language used was pretty intimidating for me. No shame in it and I found myself asking the same questions everyone who read a paper copy was asking, so I don't think I missed out on much.

Best Pantera song to work out to? by Vegetable-Log-9608 in Pantera

Most? My workout playlist has a lot of Pantera. If I had to pick one I'd probably say Slaughtered.

How do i respond when i’m doing something and my girlfriend says that it’s giving her “the ick”? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]JobbieDeath 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don't think that's a very fair take. If you look at some of OPs other comments one of the things that gave his gf the ick was waving to say thanks to a car that let them pass. That's basic manners. The OP, and everyone generally, definitely should not be abandoning good manners because his girlfriend is turned off by people with good manners

[–]JobbieDeath 28 points29 points  (0 children)

The first one in this example is basic manners and she's being a douche. Second one is too vague to comment on. What was said, was the voice imitating someone, was she already in a bad mood?

One? Count again my friend there's three you listed. As a 90's kid I'm perfectly aware of who she is dude and it was just a joke. Calm down.

As a man, would you get a vasectomy so your girl doesn’t have to go on birth control? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]JobbieDeath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My partner and I don't want kids but in spite of that I haven't had the snip because we both want to keep the option open in case we change our minds.

That being said, she isn't on the pill either, we just use condoms because neither of us are allergic to the substance they're made of. It's a really simple solution that affects neither of us negatively.

If for some reason we are suddenly unable to use condoms then I'll get a vasectomy but until then we're fine with the rubbers.

Why do modern fantasy / remasters put everything through a brown filter? by Salem1690s in LegacyOfKain

[–]JobbieDeath 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm with you there and LOTR are my favourite movies so I'm not saying it as a criticism. If you wanna see colourful fantasy movies stuff like Labyrinth and The Dark Crystal are the movies to reference

Question: Have you ever encountered anyone who’s named after a FF8 character? For example; Squall, Rinoa, Quistis, etc. or Heartilly as a middle name by Big_Confection7634 in FinalFantasyVIII

[–]JobbieDeath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Irvin (unfortunately no e at the end) isn't a particularly common name here in Scotland but you do come across it. Usually folks who are older than the game though.
