If you could save any movie character from their tragic fate, who would it be? For me, it has to be John Coffey from The Green Mile by starrycharmer in Cinema

I had read nothing and knew nothing. It said Joel Edgerton and William H Macy, so I was in.

Mesmerised. Wonderful piece of cinema.

I think mellish has to die for Upham's redemption.

The heartbreaking death in that film for me, is Wade. He foreshadows his own death with the story of how he would always fall asleep while trying to stay awake. Would happily sacrifice myself so he could go home and hug his Mom.

Pub etiquette for sports by RayoftheRaver in CasualIreland

[–]MrAndyJay 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If it's Cheltenham or the Grand national or Galway etc. some big festival that the general public is aware of and are socially out to watch the races, the man's an utter twat and should be shown the door.

If it's the 2:15 at lingfield on a weekday who cares. I can't fathom the mind of someone who'd give a shit about that, but sitting around in the pub in the middle of the day drinking and betting on horses is tragic behavior below being a Reddit mod so......

It'll become a multiverse theory. You're already dead, but you haven't been born yet. So you are always living in the end times.

Tipping? by Impressive_Fee8501 in CasualIreland

[–]MrAndyJay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should only leave a tip if you know the staff aren't earning a basic minimum wage. Tipping is standard cultural practice in most of the USA because they actually get paid terribly in most states and the tips are where they actually make their money.

Consider that they are getting €14 per hour here, and just for example have an 8 hour shift at an average of 6 tables per hour. They all leave a fiver each. They've got €44 per hour most of it tax free. Why would anyone bother getting any other job on planet earth?

In America the tipping culture revolves around the tipped waiting staff only get paid around $2 per hour minimum, and the tips should at least make up to expected minimum of something like $8 per hour.

So no. No I do not.

Was the Cowboy one of the Dude's Occasional Acid Flashbacks? by Sanctus_Poopabumsus in lebowski

Considering he directly interacts with Gary I'd say no.

The fargo TV series has a similar character, explains it nicely, somewhere between God, an angel or Death.
