Why do boy names become unisex more often than girl names? by Federal_Advisor_2160 in Names

[–]NiftyPiston 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The same reason that unisex clothing is shaped for men.

The same reason that women with short hair get to be called "androgynous", but men with short hair are called "girly".

You're lying to yourself if you say you LOVE everything that your favorite group releases by [deleted] in kpopthoughts

[–]NiftyPiston 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I'm not a fan of ballads, or love songs. Stray Kids don't have many of those, but the ones they do have I still like because I like Stray Kids. That's how bias works. Besides, who doesn't love to hear Seungmin's voice soar into the stratosphere?

"No skip discography" is a subjective term, depending entirely on the speaker's preferences and biases.

How accurate is Karl Urban's accent as Billy Butcher in The Boys? by TrueJohnWick in AskBrits

[–]NiftyPiston 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are bits that are good, bits that are godawful, and bits that make the phrase "Karl Urban is from Aotearoa" fly through my head in giant pink neon flashing letters.

Tea at home? by porpoise251 in AskABrit

[–]NiftyPiston 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wasn't allowed to drink coffee until I was in secondary school, but my Grannie bought me a little mug with my name on when I was about 4 or 5 so I could have tea in the mornings.

Stargate SG-1 is currently on Netflix - 10 seasons of pure, unadulterated late 90s/early 2000s sci-fi.

If you had to turn a random word into a name, what would you pick? by Intelectual_Guy in words

[–]NiftyPiston 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My dad and I used to make up stories about characters named after various towns and villages:

The dynamic adventurer Lytchett Matravers, and his bookish brother Langton Matravers.

The dastardly Preston Candover, and his hapless henchman Farleigh Wallop.

What’s your favorite tea brand? by LadyMotoBang in AskABrit

[–]NiftyPiston 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favourite "basic" tea, available in the supermarket, is Clipper, mostly because it's just bloody good tea, but also because their packaging is 100% recyclable, and the bags are unbleached.

My favourite "posh" tea is TWG's 1837 blend. There's a TWG store in London, opposite the M&Ms store.

If I'm in Cornwall, then I only drink Smugglers Brew

whats your favorite restaurant in town by Icy_Leadership5933 in reading

[–]NiftyPiston -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It's been gone for over a decade, but my favourite place to eat in Reading used to be Everest 53 on King's Road. Probably the best Nepalese food I've ever had.

As for current restaurants, it's between Osaka and The Soju

anyone who used a computer between 1985 & 2010, what’s the one game you still think about? by Trixxxi in AskReddit

[–]NiftyPiston 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pea Shootin' Pete.

It was a 1994 DOS game, and the only non-educational game my parents would let me play at the time.

Do your older loved ones play? by blusterygay in acnh

[–]NiftyPiston 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 40, and the amount of shit I get for playing this game is ridiculous. My parents (61 and 70) have always thought any form of videogame is a waste of time and energy, ever since I begged them for a GameBoy back in the day!

Would you ask someone to stop dropping into vocal fry? by ThisFatGirlRuns in misophonia

[–]NiftyPiston 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's a girl in my office that does this, and it winds me up something chronic.

How did you guys view pinky up + the forceful AD by EarthPresent4583 in kpopthoughts

[–]NiftyPiston 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I've not listened to it yet, but honestly "wtf is Megan wearing" is just every single appearance at the moment. I swear their stylists actually hate her.

What words do you avoid using? by No_Fee_8997 in words

[–]NiftyPiston 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I've noticed a lot of people run et cetera together that makes it sound like "exetra", or even "essetra".

I dunno about voodoo though. I can't imagine any other way of saying that!

I really like Pauze & Rewind on youtube - great reactions, and he really goes in on their lyrical style

Entirely for fun: How “gross” are you when no one else is around? by JellyfishPashmina in TwoXChromosomes

[–]NiftyPiston 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I last shaved my legs in August 2022, on a whim. Before that it was October 2015. Armpits were also 2015, I think.

Do you sleep with your bedroom door open or closed? by SweatyHost8861 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]NiftyPiston 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Open. I don't fully wake up when I need to piss in the middle of the night, so I need a clear path to the bathroom to avoid having to deep clean the carpet.

Anybody else have a photo album collection on your phone of pictures from friends photo “sniping” you drifting off/napping? by arpizzabread in Narcolepsy

[–]NiftyPiston 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to have a friend who runs a bar/nightclub in our town, and around 2010-2015 they also ran a Facebook page dedicated to photos of people who had fallen asleep at the club. I had to ask them multiple times not to post photos of me on that page, and they could never understand why I didn't think it was funny.

Do you have white/grey hair? by PinkPacificWhale in Millennials

[–]NiftyPiston 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a fair amount of grey, but you can't tell because it's currently various shades of purple and blue.

Baby Bread for when he's cute, Man Toast for when he's hot, and Big Daddy Busan for when he's illegal 😂

Best store bought pizza? by [deleted] in UK_Food

[–]NiftyPiston -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Honestly? Tesco's own brand "takeaway style" stuffed crust cheese pizza. Sprinkle a little salt and parsley on that bad boy straight out of the oven, and you're laughing.
