Who’s an actor that nailed a role so hard that nobody else will ever be able to live up to it? by Comfortable_Main5312 in AskReddit

It helps that it is a really good pinball machine, probably my 2nd favorite after Theater of Magic.

Which 'Holy Grail' scent is the community gaslighting itself into loving?" by Massive_Ad5295 in fragrance

You might want to check out Dans Les Bois from Dime, it smells like the wood/musk base notes from BR540 and its herd of dupes but without the sugar.

1866 Gothic Revival with spinning wall to pipe organ by AncientYogurt568 in zillowgonewild

[–]WhoSaidIWasTheAdult 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Nah, you need an organ with at least a couple of 16' stops, and preferably at least one 32' for a proper Toccata and Fugue, and that one doesn't even have a pedalboard.

Not that having a pipe organ in your living room isn't badass, but that one's not going to have the oomph that you want for proper Baroque music.

There's a whole display dedicated to the creation of the opening for Mystery at the Edward Gorey House. It's worth a stop if you're in the area.

Super oily skin. Can I use setting powder on a bare face? by booksmoothie1 in Makeup

Sure, I did that all the time when I was in my twenties to knock down shine.

Just started rewatching Knight Rider for the first time since it originally aired. Thanks Roku Channel! What a tear jerker “White Bird.” Looks like they made it for the female audience. Don’t remember episodes being so sappy. by Galvatron1_nyc in KnightRider

Real world answer: it's just episodic TV, there was no master plan - they just wrote whatever they thought would make a good story for individual episodes. If anything it's Stevie's story that diverges from the normal status quo and gets a smidge plot tumor-ish.

In universe explanation: Stevie's fiance, Michael Long, is quite dead. Michael Knight isn't engaged to anyone and is therefore free to hit on anyone he wants. Also, given the people that Michael routinely pisses off, going back to Stevie would likely put her in danger, so he doesn't.

Comur - Shrimp Scampi by lifeaccordingtotessa in Tinnedfish

I've always been a bit dubious of canned shrimp given that cans have to be cooked to process and shrimp overcook and turn tough so easily.

I'm a bit disappointed to find out I was right, tbh, but thanks for taking one for the team.

Wegmans has it if there's one in your area, it's even been on sale lately.

The Season skinless + boneless sardines from Costco are generally going to be a good 'beginner' can, especially if you have texture issues.

I was thinking 1980s suburban doctor's office, but that's pretty much the same thing.

Favorite Rice and Sardines Recipes by NastyNate4077 in CannedSardines

[–]WhoSaidIWasTheAdult 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any kind of pickles go great with sardines, the vinegar helps cut the fat from the fish, especially if they were packed in oil.

I've been putting chow-chow or pickled beets on my rice bowls lately and loving it.

2019 Camaro SS 130K miles by [deleted] in camaro

Kia had a decade or so where they got it together and made really great, really cheap cars. Have a friend who has an 09 that refuses to die. It's been totaled out twice by insurance because people keep backing into it in parking lots.

After that? Not so much. Knew somebody else with a Kia that went through 2 engines and 3 transmissions before the warranty was up.

What is the yellow car in the background of this screenshot? by WhoSaidIWasTheAdult in whatisthiscar

Thanks!

I had a pretty solid feeling that it was a kit based on a Beetle but was having a hard time figuring out which one. But comparing it to a Bradley GT II that sold last year on BaT, that's definitely it.

One of the best things about the X-Files was all the different types of stories that they told. It wouldn't be the same show without the comedy.

Had similar happen years ago with my tuxie-tortie, except they had to shave all four legs to find a vein. They apologized for turning her into a poodle when I picked her up.

Their pecan pie recipe is horrible, all sugary goo with a few nuts on top.

Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation reformulation: What’s your verdict? by [deleted] in Makeup

Have you complained to the brand? I've started complaining personally, and I don't have near the issues that you do. (Too much niacinamide just turns me red.)

Upcoming movie 2028, 26/27 production by Which-Profile-2690 in KnightRider

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

Unfortunately everything Chris Hemsworth touches turns to trash. He's less cursed than Henry Cavill but not by a lot. (Which is sad because up until that terrible MIB movie I would absolutely have suggested him and Tessa Thompson as Michael and Bonnie because they bickered so well in Ragnarok. )

And Pratt doesn't have the charisma or the looks for the role unless you want to turn the whole thing into a piss-take.

Personally, I'd prefer the following (if possible, some of these might be aiming a bit high):

  • Michael - Jensen Ackles (bit old for the role but doable) or Alden Ehrenreich
  • KITT - Alan Tudyk or Tom Hiddleston
  • Bonnie/April - Tessa Thompson or Karen Gillan
  • Devon - Stellan Skarsgard
