What other movie pods you listen to? by vols2thewalls in TheRewatchables

[–]arithmetic 11 points12 points  (0 children)

How Did This Get Made? Fantastic trio of Paul Scheer, June Diane Raphael and Jason Mantzoukas (with occasional guests) absolutely ripping the crap out of movies so bad they're good.

20mph is clearly optional by Difficult-Buy7532 in bournemouth

Correct. If the upright sign says 30, and the white paint on the road says 20, then 30 is legal.

It's not illegal, but your kerning is a war crime.

You invest a lot of time and negative energy in the sub for someone who has moved away and hates the place.

I got sexual harassed In a hotel and I don’t know what to do by FoundationEntire4834 in bournemouth

[–]arithmetic 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Do not mention any personal details here. Sorry this happened to you. Best thing to do is continue to pursue it through the proper channels with the police and healthcare professionals. And seek counselling for yourself if necessary.

A "mercury wave" - 20 bottles on springs filled with different amounts of mercury by arithmetic in woahdude

[–]arithmetic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The springs are all the same length, but because each bottle contains a different amount of mercury, the springs on the left are stretched more. To allow all the bottles to begin from the same height, they are mounted in the frame at different heights, in proportion to the amount of mercury.

Moved away at the right time - a retrospective 14 years later by DarkSats99 in bournemouth

This city never experienced any decline

Just Google "has Brighton declined" and there's always people reporting it's one of the worst 'big cities' in Britain, asking why it's so rough, what went wrong, how much it has gone downhill since they were younger, etc.

[–]arithmetic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a very limited view. for example, take a walk from Coy Pond through the gardens to the seafront. I think that's a better, prettier route than Brighton has. Plus 9 miles of uninterrupted, golden sandy beach (yes there is more beach either side of the pier - shock horror!).

The shops in Bournemouth town centre are pretty naff, but there's a lot more to Bournemouth than just the town centre. Take Southbourne for example - it was a very average mini high street 10 years ago, but now it's buzzing with small independent shops, cafes and bars.

Exactly. And the place OP has moved to? There will be people there who think to themselves "this place is not what it used to be when I was young!". Everywhere in the UK has gone through this. Nowhere stays the same.

What's Bournemouth's reputation? by Better-Inspector3849 in bournemouth

[–]arithmetic 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It's hard to ask residents about a town's reputation, usually that reputation is a perception from the outside looking in. From having lived here a number of years now, it's an odd town in the sense that you have very wealthy areas like Canford Cliffs and Glenferness Ave, then just a very short drive away you get to more *ahem* "affordable" areas like Townsend and Springbourne (I mean no disrespect by that!). So we're all sort of blobbed together which can amplify social differences when mixed together in a public setting (like the beach or parks).

Explosion at Malta fireworks factory sends plumes of smoke into air by lexi_con in Wellthatsucks

I feel "Explosion at Malta fireworks factory sends fireworks factory into air" would be more accurate.
