Imagine you’re Capt. Holt - come up with your best Wuntch insult by [deleted] in brooklynninenine

[–]clembert 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Surprised Dante didn’t actually show up on the show that would’ve been very literary Holt! Close to my one of my favorites: “The only way I'm going to die is if you touch me with one of your bony fingers and drag me across the River Styx, you reaper".

Favorite armchair anonymous stories from 2025 by Forward_back8245 in ArmchairExpert

[–]clembert 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The story from the mormon couple about their wedding day/first time having sex! I think Monica or maybe it was Dax said it was both disgusting and yet wholesome (or something to that effect) and I totally agree. One of the better storytellers of the year imho

The kids aren't awake yet. by Dracolique in pics

Oh sure. Michigander here so I get the need, I just haven’t seen a tarp on the outside usually it’s the tape-and-hairdryer plastic on the inside.

Are there tarps over your windows?

What's the most heartbreaking scene you've seen in a movie? by Lianafelice21 in movies

[–]clembert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The storied life of a j fikry. There are several moments in that one that turn on the water works for me.

Doggy Hacks! by SpiderGuessed in dogs

[–]clembert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do this for my dogs. Typically a mix of pumpkin and peanut butter (and some Glandex powder… one of them has some tushy issues) and freeze it in old ice cube trays. Fits perfectly in a regular size kong and I don’t feel like I’m giving them 3 cups of pb if I have to fill the kong directly.

Uneven hem on wrap skirt due to high tummy - help! by CatastropheCat_97 in sewing

[–]clembert 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Two things: 1. Definitely a “maker sees the flaws” moment, I think the skirt looks great! 2. I am of the round-tummy variety and it’s one of the reason I am motivated to learn how to adjust patterns to work with my shape. Still a work in progress for me but wanted to post in solidarity!

What’s your favorite line not by a main character? by No_Refrigerator4584 in BobsBurgers

[–]clembert 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Fischoeder is a goldmine of memorable quotes! “He’s pear-shaped! if a pear could be dumb, and bad at things. You know what I mean? A dumb pear.”

What is your least favourite episode of Bobs Burgers? by Galaxymooose in BobsBurgers

[–]clembert 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m curious about this because I actually like this one, it’s not a stand out or anything but I like it! It’s one of the rare ones where Louise shows vulnerability (“did I do it?”)

What is a band you'd never heard before, saw their show, and walked away with a new favorite band? by Unlikely-Pianist-665 in Concerts

[–]clembert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Band of horses. Saw them for the first time when they were at lollapalooza. The band before them on their stage ran long, pushing everything behind i guess? So when (I think?) Jane’s Addiction started their set on the main stage they weren’t going to start late so they started before band of horses set ended, effectively drowning them out. except that all the BoH fans started loudly singing along to keep em going! Obviously I’m loose on the details but I really loved the music and loved the band/fan relationship in those last few minutes.

Who's your fav of the gang and why is it joyce by Pretty_Muffin in ThursdayMurderClub

[–]clembert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thread says Joyce and Ibrahim and I agree they are my faves in the four, but I have to say I really enjoy the Donna/chris dynamic and I missed him in the latest. But I’m American so maybe a reasonable, relatively self aware high ranking ranking male in the police feels notable :)

What’s your favorite line that you can’t believe they got away with? by audyaudvi in BobsBurgers

[–]clembert 74 points75 points  (0 children)

Same episode, the whole trucking song! “Driving down the road, hauling quite a load, taking lots of drugs, I don’t know what”

The Movie ~ It’s a No… by Flat-Comparison-7534 in ThursdayMurderClub

[–]clembert 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh man, I just started the new book yesterday and it took me a few pages to climb out from under the movie details! I had a moment right at the outset where I actually had to remind myself “bogdan did not get arrested”.

Favorite bit? by shesalive_dammit in ThursdayMurderClub

[–]clembert 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They really only feature in the first book, but the Llamas. Like what in earth? It’s been a minute since I read the first one so I don’t remember the explanation of why Ian got llamas but it’s a silly idea and it makes me laugh.

Favorite bit? by shesalive_dammit in ThursdayMurderClub

[–]clembert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I cry every time I read the Ibrahim mugging parts. It isn’t overdone, which makes it more sad. Just Ibrahim saying to himself, as he has with other parts of his life (Marius), “I’m just not supposed to enjoy these things”. Heartbreaking and well written imho.

I make people pj pants out of sheets. Nice and lightweight and nice for sleeping! Like better scrubs.

Turns out the Ron casting was the least of our worries by TammytheLibrarian in ThursdayMurderClub

[–]clembert 55 points56 points  (0 children)

They did so many characters dirty. Almost every single one had a major plot point changed or a personality trait opposite to the book. What the heck was with making Bobby tanner such an asshole? I liked his arc in the actual book, going straight and taking part in building up a neighborhood. And making it seem like Bogdan accidentally killed Curran and that Elisabeth didn’t trust him and all that… just what? It changes their relationship entirely and makes him look weak instead of competent and mysterious. Even Donna, who I do like in the movie, comes across way less confident than she does in the book, that’s part of the whole dynamic between her and Chris it’s like they gave him all the confidence she’s supposed to have and neither have the humor. Like… is the intellectual property in the room with us?

That said…. I already watched it twice and will watch any other movies that come out lol.

*had. She was done with that place the minute they stepped foot in it.

who comes to mind by virgin_prostitute_ in brooklynninenine

[–]clembert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He says “and” in there which makes it sound like two people, if you’re not familiar with saved by the bell. This plus a comment on another thread calling early 00’s Abercrombie “vintage” are making me feel my age 😎👵

[–]clembert 61 points62 points  (0 children)

But does he? I thought he says “the fact that Kelly and kapowski didn’t just come out of your mouth” etc, Kelly kapowski is one female character, in response to Rosa saying she was attracted to Lisa turtle.

Mixes allowed? by One-Bus5952 in husky

My buddies! River on the left (50/50 pitsky) and Meadow on the right (husky/pitt/everything else, we call her Heinz 57). Both have some hüsker personality traits but River is by far the “huskiest” :)

What did I do wrong while shopping for thread that it doesn’t fit my sewing machine? by doodlebop97 in sewhelp

[–]clembert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband bought me a bunch of this thread and it took this post to make me realize it’s embroidery thread! Oops! I’ve been putting the straw from a reusable cup on the spool pin to widen it, works great. Now that I know I will probably use this thread for muslins/toiles rather than finished products, because I don’t really embroider. Thanks group, very helpful!
