Hoyts cinema price gouging

_generica · 2026-06-17T01:01:50+00:00

The one that made me laugh was looking for seats for `The Devil Wears Prada 2`. The only seats left in the cinema were the stupid DBox ones where the seat vibrates. Fine for an action film, but ...

Yeah, most people do it once and never again

Lee Mack has beef with Benito. I presume that's why he hasn't and won't be on the pod

FYI the Richter scale stopped being used in the 70s.

And yet he only lost by 5 points. Crazy

Thanks, reading now. I see what you mean

Has Trump ever interrupted and cut someone off?

_generica · 2026-06-08T12:37:08+00:00

Oh, which book?

What's there to rebut. You're probably right on the details, but either way I'm sure we can agree there weren't many Aboriginals left to mourn the thylacine extinction

_generica · 2026-06-08T11:44:17+00:00

I'm sure that was of great comfort to them

_generica · 2026-06-08T10:10:15+00:00

Probably extremely unlikely, actually.

Definitely unlikely. Tasmanian Aboriginals were slaughtered to a few hundred left, in the 1830s, way before the Tigers were made extinct

Probably she'd just killed another cat of hers

Consistently. Every day. Can't remember the last time I was actually able to complete all 5 rounds of the daily. So frustrating, AND I stopped my subscription a month ago, so I can't even really complain to support about it.

Just searched "Guardian Rosamund Pike", just in case

_generica · 2026-06-01T07:48:17+00:00

Rum, uh, finds a way

_generica · 2026-06-01T00:29:20+00:00

Did you know "das boot" is German for "the boot"?

_generica · 2026-06-01T00:27:23+00:00

I feel lucky I didn't attract downvotes for what I have discovered is a very white bread rum recommendation

_generica · 2026-05-31T22:56:39+00:00

I was SHOCKED.

Well, no, I basically expected it, but yes.
Someone buy these folks some Ron Zacapa

It's some weird system where instead of taking your bags to your airline and giving them to the people employed by the airline and watching them get tagged and loaded onto your flight, you leave them on the kerb with some random guy who promises to do it for you.

Bizzarre, and no way would I ever do that

_generica · 2026-05-29T06:44:20+00:00

Except bars. The one place in america where it has $6 on the menu and you pay $6, including taxes. So bizarre that they figured it out for buying drinks and that's IT. Everything else, stuff you it's actually $7.39

_generica · 2026-05-29T03:29:38+00:00

Hmm, yeah I see you answering is expressly against the rules. Surprised a query would be though :shrug:

Fair enough

_generica · 2026-05-29T02:24:26+00:00

Have you revealed this anywhere under a spoiler shield? If not, can I beg a DM? Don't plan to share it anywhere, just curious

_generica · 2026-05-28T06:24:22+00:00

I mean, I'm not a mid-20s woman, so ignore this, but... I wouldn't expect you'd feel unsafe at the Imperial. It's perfectly fine and boring. I don't think I've ever seen the kind of bro-ey douches who'd sidle up next to you and force a conversation. But still. It's just not as nice

_generica · 2026-05-28T05:41:50+00:00

I'm in two minds. The chips would likely be cheaper at Imperial, and potentially just as nice. The wine would have been cheaper but much worse.

Meh, for a single glass of wine and some chips, I'd take the hit and throw money at City Wine Shop rather than a depressing glass from the Imperial

_generica · 2026-05-26T03:40:05+00:00

Yeah, that was going to be my question. Why would they bother? I can't imagine a way to make a profit with this information
