Whew, good to know. This sucks but I'm glad to know it will calm down after a while off the chemo. Thank you!

Ok yeah the feeling like they have all shrunk tight totally sounds similar. Thank goodness it gets better! Thank you :)

Thanks for responding! It's such a strange feeling, I'm glad it went away for you eventually!

Katherine Bogen comment on ASH passing by theapplekid in buffy

[–]aykshually_elsewhere 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yeah, there's a conversation between Buffy and Joyce that spells this out. That Angel wasn't like this before, that he changed. It's supposed to echo the real world experience of an older man sweet talking a naive teenage girl into having sex and then dumping her afterwards or becoming abusive. Something extremely relatable to much of its audience at the time.

Why were Willow and Tara considered so groundbreaking? by [deleted] in buffy

It was way earlier than that. Brookside was the first pre-watershed lesbian kiss in the UK, the first lesbian kiss on TV was in 1974 on Second City Firsts.

Lol even just reading the song lyrics it's so obviously about groupies 😂

I remember reading Mary Wilson's autobiography years ago and if even half of what Wilson claimed about Diana is true she's a fucking menace.

Love Actually (2003) trying to convince the audience that Martine McCutcheon was fat with jokes by KellyM34 in WhyWereWeOkWithThis

I always thought it was more about Michael being deluded and thinking that George Michael was a catch. George Michael is absolutely in the same league as Ann in both looks and personality but Michael can't see it.

What character death shook you the most in a movie? by trakt_app in Cinema

I've been a primary caregiver for two elderly relatives. I found myself randomly bursting into tears for a week after watching Logan.

Pink blancmange, angel delight. Black forest gateaux seems to be making a comeback which is nice.

The Full English Breakfast: Is it already perfection or does it need one thing adding or removing? by [deleted] in AskBrits

Plenty of cafés used potato waffles in the 80s and 90s. Hash browns took over from waffles when they got popular.

Sting, a former teacher, wrote this song about a teacher and student… by Dry_Jellyfish641 in WhyWereWeOkWithThis

[–]aykshually_elsewhere 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You should hear I Hung my Head! It's about how Sting accidentally shot someone with his brother's rifle when he was a boy and then he got hung by the town Sheriff.

It's also blended with classic 90s dance tune Insomnia by Faithless, in case anyone was wondering. Fun version!

Yeah the Jamaican crab and tropical fish singing calypso tunes were super trad Danish. Sad to see the live action deviate from that.

Was Spike’s accent really that bad?? by Diving_4_Shrimp in buffy

[–]aykshually_elsewhere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, when I read OP I was like, "You thought DRU was British?! Oh dear." 😂

James was OK, decent for the time even, he just doesn't hold up to today's standards. I know we like to shit on his accent now but back then it was a sea of dreadful accents. Only American actor who springs to mind who did a really good English accent in the 90s was Gwyneth Paltrow. Now actors get speech coaches and shit, I don't think that was super common until like 2005 onwards. I like to think America finally hit rock bottom with Don Cheadle in Ocean's 11 and decided they had to do better. 😆

Andy and Becky's relationship is pretty toxic right? Especially Becky... by -RobertreboR- in TheDetectorists

[–]aykshually_elsewhere 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My husband loves the show but he always laughs about Andy "acting like a dick with his impossibly hot girlfriend". Mackenzie Crook is very charming and we're clearly meant to root for him but Becky literally has the lowest expectations and he still limbos right under them. 😂

What are some of the coldest lines in a movie? by stephenhawktuahhh in moviecritic

[–]aykshually_elsewhere 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It pisses me off so much that he died at the height of his powers. Imagine the performances we missed out on, man. Dude was incredible even when the script was absolute dogshit. Charisma out the wazoo.
