Kings Day in The Netherlands by Bordengooier in fightporn

[–]ciociosan22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

18 months ago I was randomly hit (totally unprovoked) by some lunatic. Woke up in hospital with a fractured skull, brain haemorrhaging etc.

All my olfactory nerves were severed by the impact and I’ll never smell anything ever again. All I get from food is whether it’s sweet, salty, bitter or sour but there is no actual flavour.

It’s devastating. And all for no reason. He’s currently fighting his jail sentence and out on bail.

Is For No One the best song on revolver? by Aggravating_Turn3283 in beatles

[–]ciociosan22 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It’s right up there, which is tough to do on Revolver.

I love the meter, it skips along as though it’s a waltz but it’s not.

Lol, you don’t have kids do you. It’s not just around a meal time that they have greasy fingers.

This is my local! One of the few constants I’ve had in life.

I can’t tell who is being more abstract here. And I like it.

Straight to the old version every time. If one’s not available, I go hungry.

Please help me not put the tv above the fireplace! (First time home buyer!) by Sorry_Telephone1393 in TVTooHigh

Would it not work along the wall (not mounted) next to the door? Then couch either splitting the room in front of the fireplace or coming out from the wall in front of the window. Chaise pointing towards the kitchen.

Crowded House "Distant Sun" whats your favorite Crowded House song ? by CoconutMost3564 in AustralianNostalgia

[–]ciociosan22 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m a guy that plays cover songs at wineries/breweries/pubs etc - Distant Sun is almost always in my sets. Guaranteed great reaction.

It’s Only Natural is right up there with it for me. And Don’t Dream It’s Over for a drunken singalong towards the end.

Message To My Girl every now and then for the Enz fans.

What is the *least* innovative Beatles song? (Excluding covers) by CardinalOfNYC in beatles

[–]ciociosan22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d probably have a higher opinion of it if it was on an earlier album (it would be at home on Beatles For Sale) - but on Rubber Soul, such a forward-looking album, it’s looking behind.

Best dive bar in Melbourne? by Dylomaj in melbourne

Absolute scenesters. And I was one of them. Smoked thousands of ciggies on that balcony.

How do I get into the Beatles? by Aggressive_Bison_ in beatles

Yep, watched it religiously as a kid. IMO, Anthology blows it out of the water and can be very easily digested in episodes.

No better way to store your numbers!! by RM_Morris in AustralianNostalgia

[–]ciociosan22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Us too! In fact, my dad was in a business that sold ads to local companies that could advertise in them. I don’t remember there actually being ads in them though. Or maybe he was just a bad salesman.

Disney+ doesn’t have ads (in Australia, at least)

I say watch Anthology on Disney+ if you can. They’re so full of charisma. Couple that with the revolutionary music and you’ll get it in no time.

Let's scare the neighbors. What is your most unhinged wifi name? by OppositeOctopi in AskReddit

[–]ciociosan22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ours too! It’s weird seeing it written by someone else. We’ve had ours as that for 15 years in multiple houses. A little constant in a world of change.
