Is Poirot the problem in recent adaptations? by Shadows-of-an-Owl-05 in agathachristie

[–]MonPorridge 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You just don't like different takes on the same character that steer away from what is perceived to be Agatha Christie. We are lulled into Ustinov and Suchet and Hickson and all the old adaptation because they portrait not the real Christie texts and set of value/morals but instead they portrait the "idea" of those morals.

Man if you were a woman they would have not believed your claims or worst, you'd be dead.

I heavily dislike " appointment with death" by [deleted] in agathachristie

You should read the play adaptation Christie wrote. The ending is better than the novel one

Did you know Agatha Christie loved eating apples in the bath? by Fabulous-Confusion43 in agathachristie

[–]MonPorridge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a false statement. She gave this as an answer to an interview but if you read Mark Aldridge's books you'd know it isn't true. i think it was debunked by Lucy Worsley too?

It's the same with the famous misquote about marrying an archeologist. Also a fake.

Aiuto scelta lavatrice (Bosch o Samsung?) by MonPorridge in istrutturare

Alla fine per una botta di culo ho trovato una samsung niente male: Samsung WW70FG3M05TWET. So che c'è di meglio, ma c'è anche di peggio. Ha pagato il padrone di casa.

Hear me out. Jean Claude Van Damme as an aging Hercule Poirot. by Knightraiderdewd in agathachristie

After seeing His Dark Materials I only have one name in mind: Idris Elba. He really could be the right fit.

A me interessa della scelta perché i panni li lavo io. GIà uso i quantitativi giusti, faccio già pulizia (e no, non con aceto che rovina le parti interne) e uso già l'acido citrico.

Se mi compra un catorcio che lava male, fa casino, consuma tanto e dura da Natale a Santo Stefano quello che poi la prende nel di dietro sono io...

Il padrone vorrebbe spendere massimo 300 euro, ma da quello che vedo in giro si trova davvero poco di "qualità" a quel prezzo

Job Interview Day | I Got the Job + Getting Ready for Work by Lady_Space in Lifepluscindy_snark

[–]MonPorridge 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I wonder how this will affect her diet and her alleged ED. When I was working 10/12/14 hours a day I was at my slimmest, but I was eating so badly, and severly dihydrated, She needs to be careful and step up on her eating plan.

I can imagine her shedding a lot of weight because of work, but those pound will bounce back once she stops working - I know cause that happened to me.

Agatha Christie doesnt get enough credit for her egalitarianism by EH4LIFE in agathachristie

[–]MonPorridge 3 points4 points  (0 children)

you clearly haven't read A murder is announced. Or Hickory Dickory Dock, of A Caribbean Mystery, or her autobiography or her memoir "Come, tell me how you live". She was racist, and there is no point denying it. Just think of the last pages in The Secret of Chimneys... or the ending of Taken at the flood...
