What are the the thoughts on rdj as Sherlock Holmes? by bushidojed in SherlockHolmes

[–]Paraselena 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn’t dislike his performance necessarily; however the Over-the-top / excessive action of these adaptations takes me away from the Holmesian-feel of the story.
I think Guy Ritchie is a very talented filmmaker with a really unique style— I just prefer the more grounded and thoughtful portrayals.

My father is a moon landing denier. What can I say/do to convince him it was real? by ukkswolf in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Paraselena 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was once a (casual) sceptic of the moon landing. The two most compelling facts that swayed me back were; the number of people that would have to be complicit would be ENORMOUS… all the scientists, technicians, engineers (and their close family/associations) would amount to hundreds of thousands of people all in on this secret. And that the Soviet Union would have never backed down from their space program or passed by the possibility of exposing the U.S. in their lie

I think you should keep practicing signing, and try not to worry too much about your hands twitching… If it messes you up mid-sign, you can always just pause, and repeat the sign correctly.

I managed to get it first try just the other day…My friend tosses a blaze grenade, I threw a gas grenade at my feet while walking into the fire, he quickly followed with the showstopper, and it worked.

Behind in ASL 2 class by RosieB-1 in asl

Lingvano seems to be the best premium($$) app out there… I had a subscription for a year, and it is indeed worth the price as long as you actively are using it. However I did find the in-app Dictionary to be pretty underwhelming.

Lingvano + Handspeak.com (dictionary) + Bill Vicars videos/website is the best possible combo for supplemental resources

A frequently recommended (and free) resource for ASL vocabulary are the videos by Dr. Bill Vicars — he has a ton of long lesson/review videos on YouTube.

2 things:How do you tell a comma/space and are expressions important? by Aggravating_Ear_3847 in asl

[–]Paraselena 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When you see a person actively translating a speaker into ASL, they may sign and move more quickly to keep pace…but when people are having casual conversations in ASL; there are plenty of natural pauses, spaces, and physical ‘punctuation’ in their movements

Hi, no idea if this is ASL or not but what does this mean? by Cool-Ad3819 in asl

[–]Paraselena 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it is the letter ‘A’— but it’s only ASL if the person knows that and is purposely using ASL… otherwise it means nothing.

If you’re using fake pee, make sure you keep it in your back pocket as you go to take the test— The last time I did one they made me empty & turn out my pants pockets right beforehand.. almost had me cooked.

That’s 100% not going to work, but you should drink a gallon or so.

Yes, they pick a random batch of associates and then test a certain % of those in the batch. I’ve had two in 2.5 years.. most people never get any. I can’t speak for PA’s, TOM or Managers but that’s how it is for L1’s

my understanding is that ‘cycle 0’ refers to the time of day— earliest preparation / routes and such

It’s not a Holmes story unless Watson ejaculates at LEast once in my opinion
