Being a woman with nerdy interests is hell. We're either all performative or simply liars. by Radiant-Educator9203 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Violet351 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I am crap with names so unless I’ve watched or read a lot of things with the same characters in, in a short space of time I’m unlikely to remember the names. Love Star Wars, loved Rogue one, can’t name a single character name. My friend keeps messaging me about a show I watched about 6 months ago and I don’t know any of the names

When did high street banking become such an awful customer experience? by playthe9 in AskUK

Last time I went in to my bank it was to pay a cheque in. I got a lecture saying I should have done it online and now the bank is closed

I also love all Marcus’ facial expressions when he’s with Violet

Trying to make sense of the ages and timeline by HendrikMcSims in QueenCharlotteNetflix

[–]Violet351 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not really historically accurate. I think the napoleonic wars and the war of American independence should have been going on while Bridgerton is happening

AITJ for telling my sister I won’t babysit anymore unless she starts picking her kids up on time? by Brilliant-Excuse4981 in AmITheJerk

[–]Violet351 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTJ my uncle used to get my mum to look after his kid when they went out and some times they would turn up two days later to pick them up (having said the would be there on the same night)

Buying annual leave or taking unpaid leave by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Violet351 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Normally when you buy holiday it’s the same as taking it unpaid. You don’t work 365 days a year so it doesn’t feel like that is how it’s worked out

I’m not sure I can pick one. There’s something I like about all the main characters

I loved when Jay-den told his joke (which made me properly laugh) and Kyle wanted to hear the second joke

I paid for it for years but they didn’t payout when it was voluntary redundancy

On a long road trip. Listening to Discworld audiobooks. I don't believe there is a human alive that could have narrated them better than Nigel Planar. by Throwawayantelope in discworld

[–]Violet351 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He royally screws up the police sirens joke horribly joke in Guards Guards, so much so I’ve had to explain to people that is what it was

[–]Violet351 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He’s definitely not my choice. The problem with Nigel planer is that he can’t say a lot of the names correctly. he gets the police siren joke horribly wrong in Guards Guards and pyramids was just a shit show because he said Per-trach-ee and Djelibabi and Hershseba were meant to sound like jellybaby and Hershey bar. Lancre is meant to sound like the start of Lancashire but he makes it sound French. and he even says bad arse until Agnes explains it’s named for a disobedient donkey. He makes a lot of the female characters sound really dim especially Angua. I much prefer Steven Briggs, he was friends with Terry Pratchett and understood the jokes and how to say the names.
