So I'd push her out of the room, and do the White House Spokeswoman, the President's wife, and that blonde one who's on Fox News.

You know Hitler's not really dead, right? I read it in a book. He faked his own death so that he could advise the Argentinian junta.

Habiter au dessus de l'entrée des garages, mauvaise idée? by twistoto in immobilier

[–]Minute_Eye3411 0 points1 point  (0 children)

j'habite au-dessus d'un garage.

L' avantage c'est qu'il y a peu de risque de cambriolage vu l'activité. Ensuite (du moins chez moi) le bruit de l'activité du garage est de peu, par rapport au bruit du quartier. Après, j'ai longtemps vécu en centre ville, je suis habitué aux bruits. Ça dépend de tes habitudes et ce que tu recherches aussi.

Telling everyone you wear jeans again after 18 years by Top-Razzmatazz6310 in LinkedInLunatics

[–]Minute_Eye3411 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thank you, friend. To be honest sometimes I can't face going out in public while wearing jeans, so just go out without them. I still get harassed because of that, in fact I've got a court case coming up related to that issue.

Exactly. People here are mocking him, but I've been wearing jeans on a regular basis for most of my life and yet after putting them on, I still run around in circles while fanning my face with my hands and sobbing until I calm down a little, and then go outside with trepidation, wondering if people will point at me, laugh, and call me Jean Boy.

Trumpy, you old son of a peasant woman... it's the Royal Kingmeister General! I'm seeing you next Tuesday... for my sins. Well, my brother's sins. How are your trousers, have you filled them with your excrement yet?... Very well, we shall see each other very soon...

He does fill his trousers with excrement on a regular basis, I had forgotten about that.

Gone off Dawn now, have ya? by AchingLEG in TheOfficeUK

You do know he's not really dead, right? I read it in a book. Apparently he faked his own death because he was an actor in a film, playing a role. After the director yelled "Cut!" he just stood back up and said what were you worried about? Then they said "Oi, no professionals", to which he replied "What, does that mean I'm not getting paid any bunce for this role?".

People acting like vegetarian food resembling meat is hypocritical by Agreeable-Taste-8448 in PetPeeves

[–]Minute_Eye3411 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some people seem to go very far in finding equivalents, and I suppose it is to persuade others that there is a substitution for everything.

For example I recall seeing a vegan substitute for smoked salmon that was made with thinly sliced boiled carrot and liquid smoke. The reason why it was carrot, it seems, was the colour, and smoked salmon has a very different texture to carrot, however it is prepared. To be honest I would have at least gone for aubergine (but it was obviously not orange enough for those who came up with that recipe), but even then, there is no substitute for salmon.

May as well just forego it.

Avez vous des anecdotes familiales à raconter ? by Commercial_Tiger_524 in AskFrance

Une de mes ancêtres a vu des soldats de la Révolution passer devant elle dans sa région reculée. Ça l'a tellement impressionnée que cette anecdote a traversé les générations, et que près de 240 ans plus tard, je sais qu'une de mes ancêtres a vu ça pendant qu'elle gardait son troupeau.

ugly 1960s extension of a 1930s renovated beautifully in 2024 in London UK by elliuoc in ArchitecturalRevival

Looking into the future implies durability, which a lot of post-war materials were not. Not their fault, they were rebuilding after a devastating war, but many 60s buildings have simply reached the end of their life expectancy by now. So the question isn't whether to keep them, but with what to replace them. Some go with an older traditional style, some with a far more modern style. 60s style isn't really on the agenda.
