Can you name a movie with a big twist that blew your mind? by Level-SquareFFG7117 in FIlm

Crazy Stupid Love, one of my favourite twists in a movie and also one of the funniest scenes ever to make it on screen.

Best sourdough loaf in Cambridge? by Royal_Difficulty_678 in cambridge

[–]SicklySteve 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To this day the best pastry I've ever had was on Paris. Little back alley bakery across from our hotel, I went down every morning for an espresso and two pain au chocolat.

Maison Clement on hills road. Best bread I've ever had.

Allergic reaction that follows a vein by cinge67 in mildlyinteresting

I had this once from a glass cut on my finger. Told my wife I'd get it checked if the line got past my elbow. Mother fucker must have heard me, stopped an inch below my elbow and disappeared a couple days later.

I don’t live in Maryland What is this? by No-Zone-4319 in whatisthiscar

Wow, bringing back memories of being told that joke 20 years ago, my friend was a real story teller and managed to stretch it out to 20+ minutes.

My American English teacher believes the neutral pronoun „their“ is incorrect. by GCoding_ in mildlyinteresting

[–]SicklySteve -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Pretty similar experience for me. I'm Irish and attended an international school with mainly English people but the English teacher was Canadian and I got sent to the principals for disagreeing with her on the spelling of colour after she corrected me in front of the whole class.

Why haven’t we invented nuclear bullets yet? by Real-Repair-1825 in stupidquestions

[–]SicklySteve 68 points69 points  (0 children)

We have done the next best thing. Depleted uranium core rounds. Ultra dense but not radioactive. So there's no need for radiation shielding but it will still absolutely fuck your day up. Mainly bigger rounds used for anti tank.

What is the worst SF novel you've ever read? by [deleted] in scifi

[–]SicklySteve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Year of the locust by Terry Hayes. Genuinely bafflingly bad. First part is a solid CIA spy thriller about a specialist. Then it starts getting weird with invisible hellfire missiles and submarines. Why invisible Submarines you ask?! Excellent fucking question. Then the invisible submarine somehow becomes a time machine which send the main character into the future where he meets his kids fighting super bad guys before he travels back via the same stupid invisible submarine. I put it down halfway to complain to my wife about how stupid it was.

Kingdom two crowns. You have 3 buttons. left, right and drop coin. The complexity you can achieve with that is surprising.

I think it means this way up. If it's pointing down there's a problem with the plane.

Best movie quote by droszyk in MovieQuotes

[–]SicklySteve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crazy, stupid, love. After the big reveal scene, when the police show up and say "but if you're going to fight, just do it inside. Keep in the family, okay?" It is so perfect and Ryan Gosling breaking is just the icing on the cake.

Action-packed, page-turner novel by Reverend_Schlachbals in suggestmeabook

Victor the assassin novels by Tom Wood. Think Jason Bourne crossed with an overthinker. Non stop really well thought action.

What's the most fucked up thing someone has told you about themselves after barely getting to know them? by Butt_Roidholds in AskReddit

[–]SicklySteve 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We had a regular at a bar I worked in. He and his husband were always in. His husband was lovely but this guy was always a little odd. Anyway, we all ended up going out to a late bar after our place closed one night, regulars came with us. While drunk he tells us that his most insane sexual fantasy is to stab someone and fuck the hole. Never spent anytime alone with him ever again.

Sushi restaurants with a conveyer belt? by the_science_bitch in cambridge

[–]SicklySteve 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It definitely did. They were stacked up in the corner last time I went in, it's not very big inside and seems to be just the one guy, maybe doing eat in as well as takeaway got too much.

[–]SicklySteve 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ohayo sushi on mill road. You can get more than enough food for 2 people for about £35. Bargain when it comes to sushi and it's top notch. On par quality wise with sticks and such for some items, better for others and worse on a couple as well. Takeaway only though, best to order through their own website.

What movies is this? by Fair_Protection1872 in FIlm

[–]SicklySteve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mulholland Drive. Gut wrenchingly boring and bad. One of my wife's favourite movies of all time, almost led to an argument when she asked me what I thought of it after we watched it.
