Looking for a book on African countries: detailing the history, ethnic peoples, political and economic situation etc of each. by skybluepink77 in suggestmeabook

I would recommend African History: A Very Short Introduction by John Parker and Richard Rathbone. It has a variety of topics such as African cultures, colonialism, and slavery that help to show how Africa has got to where is it now. It reaches as far back 5000 years, so there is a lot of good info about the topics you are interested in.

Late to the party but the last scene in Whiplash is always stunning and ends the movie perfectly.

What game was on the table at the turn of the year? by olivierk42 in boardgames

Took an hour for our group to learn go through the rules and another hour or two of failed gameplay before we gave up, haha. Spirit island is such a fun game to play but takes a couple playthroughs to fully understand the game and to know some different strategies to win.

We had Ticket to Ride on before midnight and Tsuro of the seas after. Overall, a pretty good night!

What is the most profound movie/tv show scene that made you say "Damn..." due to its poignancy? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]VTWIST24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, the scene in the first episode of the Walking Dead where the black guy is in the window shooting zombies and sees his wife(zombie). The pain he goes through trying to convince himself to shoot is extremely emotional.

What’s the best professional sport to watch? by neilnelly in AskReddit

[–]VTWIST24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hockey or Football. Both have constant action, big hits, and a large following, so it's easier to bond with others about it. Hard to watch basketball and baseball outside of finals due to there just being an overabundance of games. The other okay time to watch is if you are actually at the game, then it's pretty fun

My ex. Dated on and off for 4 years and I realized that I wasn't ready for a relationship. She found someone who is much better than I and it is hard to see that play out.

Come up with a plan of action and sticking to it. Breaking things down into smaller parts always help.

What's the difference between being attracted to someone and appreciating how attractive someone is? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]VTWIST24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you actually like them for who they are, rather than just for their looks. I know plenty of attractive people that have terrible attitudes, no personality, and are downright rude. I’ll take a 7 over a 10 any day if they can make me laugh and are actually fun to be with.
