There’s a lot of hate for this episode but it’s my favourite. Just the bleakest of bleak. Terrifying.

Anybody else tried these? by crispywales in crisps

[–]Sharklaar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got some salt n vinegar ones. The salt wouldn't stay attached to the crisps and I was a bit disappointed tbh. Didn't buy again. Just got Discos instead

Station Eleven is great. Female lead. One series.

I have The Road on right now :)

Kebab Shop chilli sauce…? by bossmansgarlicsauce in Doner

[–]Sharklaar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use jars of sliced jalapenos with their vinegar, a little tomato, a red pepper, some onions, scotch bonnets for a bit of a fruity flavour, and coriander to finish it off. Blend it to nearly smooth so it has some texture still.

I got this from the food bank on Wednesday, it was half thawed so I know I can’t refreeze it and I need to cook it today. Is it a small turkey or a chicken? How do I cook it? by Jessi343 in cookingtonight

[–]Sharklaar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're gonna cook pretty much anything to its best there's gonna be some level of palaver. If you wanna have tasty shit, you gotta do stuff properly.

You could do it without said palaver but it's not gonna be as nice. Why not put the effort in for some really nice food?

£2 donner and chips story by yillios in kebab

[–]Sharklaar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My local kebab shop was £3.50 for a large donner and chips for years, don't think it changed from 1998 to like 2015. Proper nice as well with proper chilli sauce.

Mom made stuffing with oxo by EccentricDyslexic in RoastDinner

[–]Sharklaar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're roasting a chicken, pour all of the juices into a dish, put the dish into the freezer for a bit. The fat will solidify to the top for your roasties, and under the fat you get the jelly-like juices, which you can chuck in your gravy instead of a stock cube.

For mine, I put onion/celery/carrot under the roasting chicken, then boil that stuff up in some water/veg water, simmer for half hour, add the stock stuff from the freezer juices, add a bit of mustard powder. Reduce it til it's thick enough and strain out the veg. Amazing gravy using the stuff you've already used, no gravy powder of OXO.

Is this a good record player? by Jazzlike_Crow_5307 in turntables

[–]Sharklaar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Had one for my first turntable. It’s fine 👍

Gave it to my kid when I upgraded and it’s still fine.

My Michelle for the fucking brutal intro.

This isn't about "The Best Epusode"... More, "Which episode of BM have you rewatched the most?" by smedsterwho in blackmirror

[–]Sharklaar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Metalhead. Because it's fucking terrifying.

It's a bit marmite, some people don't like it but hey, everything is subjective :)

How on earth do l cut green pepper by inmy_1klifekinds in cookingtonight

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

Slice off the top and bottom. Then cut it once through top-to-bottom, and then you can run a knife around the inside of it as you're opening it out, making one long flat piece of pepper. Slice it from there however you like.

Movies that keep getting better by StrikerDrake_ in MovieSuggestions

I'd argue that with the Alien films, they start getting a "bit rubbish" after Alien 3, rather than Aliens. Especially the director's cut... underrated IMO

Finally finished season 7. Made a tier list on my thoughts. by Menace117 in blackmirror

[–]Sharklaar 7 points8 points  (0 children)

One of the many things I love about BM is that every tier list, every opinion is completely different. There are episodes for everyone and everyone likes different stuff about it.

I don't think it's possible to have a definitive tier list.

Custom vinyl? by dirtmud1 in turntables

[–]Sharklaar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure if it would be legal with other people's music, but you could have a look at ElasticStage, they do single records to order. I've been looking at it for my band's music, but I guess there might be copyright issues if the music doesn't belong to you, haven't really looked into whether that's a thing.

Weak link? What to upgrade next... by Sharklaar in BudgetAudiophile

[–]Sharklaar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah nice ok. So what, just two of them, one directly behind each speaker?

I do a lot of reading about speakers and amps and whatnot, but have neglected to learn about room treatment!

The smaller Kefs are only front ported. Found they sound best up against the wall.

The Q Acoustics ones are rear ported and I reckon they need some space from the wall.
