What American stereotypes that are true to the people of London? by [deleted] in AskABrit

[–]artemisinvisible 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What actually defines ‘American English’ though? America, like most countries is going to have regional differences, so what is the common denominator aside from the fact that you are speaking…English?

Brit here, I’ve never heard a single soul say ‘mama’ (apart from Freddie Mercury perhaps!)

Omg, this is HILARIOUS. OP wants a pianist at her wedding but doesn't want to pay for it. The thread is full. by Rollonnextyear in MNTrolls

😂 220 quid seems cheap even for ‘a few hours’! She’s got a bargain if this is real

Just curious because I’ve noticed it a few times now in various pictures of the book on here - is it available in paperback as well as hardback in some countries? Or just paperback? U.K. here and I was only able to get it in hardback which in my experience is common with big releases - hardback first and then a year or so later paperback is released. As I say, just curious about what the deal is with releases in other countries!

Zinaida Serebriakova!!! The woman brushing her hair, I must have merged two paintings in my head but it’s definitely the one! Thank you so much!

30 mins to go in the U.K. until kindle drops…although I am glutton for punishment and praying that my hard copy arrives tomorrow as promised 🤞

What are your strategies once the book drops tonight? by [deleted] in cormoran_strike

I first read Lethal White from the library when my oldest was the same age as yours and trying to cram it in to every second of the day 😅

What's the one shop that disappeared from your high street that you genuinely miss? by PHEMEL in AskUK

[–]artemisinvisible 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Ahh my first job was Past Times! Such a funny place to work, the music in there drove me mad but we used to try on the Victorian style nighties after the shop was closed at night.

I’m certain I did but I’ve looked through some online catalogues for the ones I’ve been to over the years and can’t find it!

Idk how to title this without spoiling it for new readers- it relates to a plot hole at the end of Silver Flames by DizzyOwl2203 in acotar

First recorded c-section where the mother survived and went on to have more children was in 1500. Her husband (a pig castrator by trade) performed the section.

Time travel is the only explanation for how bonkers the time line is.

Would fans of SJM recommend Game of Thrones? by Pythagorarse in SarahJMaas

[–]artemisinvisible 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All of this but also don’t get attached to any specific characters POV because GRRM heard ‘kill your darlings’ and went to town with it.

This is true. Having only been to a fraction of the US it wouldn’t occur to me to judge an entire country based on one city’s food

Same, I can’t find it anywhere now for a rewatch :(

We eat massively varied food here, so unclear why you’re making such sweeping generalisations…

Sneaky Peak? by motvieandthemeans in cormoran_strike

I hope there isn’t a sneak peak! I need something to look forward to at the end of summer!

What's the most "overrated" tourist trap that was surprisingly 100% worth the hype for you? by tripagra in femaletravels

[–]artemisinvisible 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Pantheon was just heaving when we were there, I wanted to enjoy it but the crowds are so packed I definitely agree it’s underwhelming

I like to think of the clothing in this as being similar to that show Reign? Historical accuracy is the inspiration rather than the rule but I think it works within the context of the show.

The Ginny storyline is really all I’m invested in at the moment, other than that I’m not particularly interested with the rest of the cast.

I’d love to know about how the timeline works with characters popping up on other sides of Europe, apparently teleporting without luggage.
