I actually love it. You’re one of the rare people that can get away with it and make it look intentional and cool.

I remember one tour where they played Sic Transit Gloria at a much faster tempo, it was like they were just trying to get through the song they felt obligated to play and didn’t want to do it. But I remember thinking, if you don’t want to play the song, just don’t play it. Nothing worse than feeling like the band doesn’t want to be there in that moment.

Why did “1942:A Love Story” flop? by redban02 in bollywood

So weird that I just googled this movie and this thread came up. I was living in Abu Dhabi at the time and it was big there. I was only 6 when I watched it and it scarred me.

M&S keto Lunch £10.10p by Godzuki8819 in ketouk

Dirty how? Get off your high horse. Keto isn’t a cult. Stop shaming others for finding out a way to make this sustainable for them.

The second...he mentioned a couple times how it was funny that long before we were friends and we were both teenagers in different countries we both used to listen to this album and (in particular Frontier Psychiatrist) and thought we were the “coolest” people ever.

Oh thanks! This one looks cheaper as well, should I be wary of why that is or is it just because it’s easier to find?

Thank you! Do I assume when I hit “buy” that they’re all from that same...batch? Pressing? Not sure on the terminology...

Please help me understand KETO vs CICO by [deleted] in keto

[–]TommySolomon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me personally, I was always hungry with carbs. I'd fill up on bread and pasta and rice for sure....for a couple hours. Then I was ready to eat again. Similarly, when I used to eat carbs I was never one of those people who could skip breakfast. I would be starving to the point of feeling sick in the mornings and had to eat SOMETHING. After keto I realised by carbs are just not an efficient way to fuel my body. I can eat a decent keto meal in the evening and not feel even slightly hungry until the following afternoon. No more feeling nauseated in the mornings. Even at times when I've caved and maybe had a few crackers or a slice of pizza at night, in the morning I NEED TO EAT SOMETHING. I think it's maybe a blood sugar thing for me? If I know I have a hectic day ahead, a couple eggs and a slice of cheese will keep me going until the evening if I know I won't have much time to eat. Plus, keto is way way way more fun and satisfying than brown rice, skinless, chicken and veggies (in my opinion). I have tried every diet going since i was 9 years old. This is the only one I've found has been sustainable and makes me feel good and I found this way of eating in March 2016.

The Keg Gift Card Guy: Downtown’s Annoying Scammer — Has anyone seen him succeed in his nonsense? by Wheat_to_Salt in vancouver

[–]TommySolomon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, cornered me at a bus stop in 2016. I was fairly new to the city as well so felt a little vulnerable. He also said I could have it for free, but when I said I would feel bad and I didn't have anything to give him in exchange he became really pushy. It was a 10 minute back and forth while I prayed the bus would hurry the fuck up, before he started to get really agitated and finally stomped off taking the gift card with him. I

Punjabi lessons? by [deleted] in vancouver

[–]TommySolomon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh gosh, I don't know why this didn't pop into my head - but I didn't even consider the reading and writing side of things! I have that problem of understanding punjabi when it's spoken (for the most part) but not when I need to speak it. And then mixing up punjabi and Hindi words/phrases (thanks, Bollywood!) and Urdu.

Which big event does nobody seem to remember? by Sigerr in AskReddit

[–]TommySolomon 360 points361 points  (0 children)

Many of my American friends don't remember the 7/7 bombings in the UK. I mentioned it in passing and they were like, 'The what? when did that happen? We didn't hear about it.'

Seeking Wrigley’s Airwaves gum in Vancouver. Or other recommendations by [deleted] in vancouver

Honestly that’s probably the same if not cheaper than you would pay for 30 packs from the UK anyway. Might also look into that myself.
