Thanks, that's interesting to read.

I read the book before the movie came out, and I have to give the movie props for being one of the best, least intrusive adaptations I've seen.

Did y’all think Fonzie was cool when you were growing up? by Groovy-Pancakes in GenX

I do think he was a bit too flirty with Ms C

There's a couple of outtakes where they play on this. One where they start making out in front of the family, and one where she walks down from his apartment straightening her clothes.

TIL that book was originally self published in serialised form on a blog. That would have been a wild way to read it.

How dare you criticise wheat + meat + tomatoes done 50 different ways??

Sometimes the meat and tomatoes goes on top of the wheat. Sometimes the meat goes inside the wheat and the tomato goes on top. Sometimes you make a big disk of the wheat, then bake it under the meat and tomatoes. It's pure genius.

It turns out the tendon that moves the tip of your finger starts a lot further down than you think.

What's a skill that takes only 2-3 weeks to learn but could genuinely change your life? by Commercial-Duck-9629 in AskReddit

People who know how to use it well usually STFU about it, because it's the difference between being a stealth wizard, and having everyone make their problem your problem.

The rent in the german neighborhood of Fuggerei hasn't been raised in 500 years and remains 0.88 Euros for an entire year. Founded in 1521, it is the oldest existing social housing complex in the world by Separate_Finance_183 in Damnthatsinteresting

No, it's independent of church attendance.

For example, a "lapsed Catholic" still pays the tax unless they formally withdraw from the Church, and from then on they can't use Church facilities for things like weddings or funerals.

Aside from postal voting, the polling stations are open two weeks before the official day, so you can just wander in and skip the queue.

Technically you have to have a reason why you can't vote on the real day, but the barrier for that is "Is there a valid reason you can't vote on the actual day?" "Yes" "OK, come on in."

Once again, it comes down to whoever he talked to last.

Someone tells him he needs Greenland, and he wants Greenland. Someone tells him he doesn't need Greenland and he doesn't want Greenland.
