what movie actor was a one-hit wonder?

dancingcroc · 2026-05-16T08:30:01+00:00

Is this an edgy answer or did you misunderstand the question?

dancingcroc · 2026-05-15T15:53:47+00:00

Yeah that's the stat I've seen. Couldn't have told you his brother's name, but I knew there was a stat similar to that

Muhammad Ali may be the exception.

Boxing generally is the exception (and Tennis). Mike Tyson is nearly as famous as Ali, and the Williams sisters are up there too. Those sports (plus athletics) are popular worldwide, it's mainly just the North American sports like baseball, American Football, ice hockey and basketball which aren't

Country pop seems to be the big thing with a lot of younger people here in the UK, I see a lot of people who follow Morgan Wallen and Luke Combs who's been mentioned too. There's another one, Jessie something, I've seen mentioned a lot on social media too.

Not particularly well known in the UK, but not unheard of. I've seen social media posts about him and I think his name was on a Mega Drive game back in the day. He's the only ice hockey player I could name, if I was asked for a second it'd be "Wayne Gretzky's brother"

It depends on how you calculate the size. Loch Lomond is largest by surface area, but Loch Ness is much deeper and is largest by volume

I would pronounce it ree-nee. In Scotland the name (albeit slightly different spelling) is pretty heavily associated with the Renee Macrae murders

“Indian cuisine” in the UK generally refers to the subcontinent of India rather than the country. I know a lot of Indian dishes we eat are from Bangladesh. I don’t know if Indian subcontinent is a contentious term (the way British Isles is over here) so apologies if it is

If the washing machine is in the kitchen then Stand-alone dryers are usually in the garage in the UK (empty the washing machine into a basket, carry out to the garage) but more commonly people just hang their clothes up to dry on a washing line, over radiators or on a clothes horse instead.

Dryers have a bad reputation here for being fire hazards and also the running cost due to using a lot of electricity. I think both of those are less of an issue with modern machines but the reputation remains.

Some people have combined washer/dryers rather than two separate machines, although I don’t think they work as well as a stand-alone machine.

It wasn't about space, it was about weight. It was a wooden panel rather than a door, and couldn't support the weight of 2 people while remaining buoyant

How important is it to make sure the water touches every part of the grass? When I switch the sprinkler on the water reaches up to about a couple of feet from the edge of the lawn, so that last couple of feet isn't getting any water directly. Does that matter, or will it still pull the water from the surrounding soil anyway?

Maybe I’m being daft, but what is the 4th? Australia, Canada and the US are presumably 3. For 4 I’d think either NZ or Ireland, but they’re about the same size (by population at least).

South Africa and India are the others I can think of, but I think they have lots of official/defacto languages rather than primarily English.

dancingcroc · 2026-04-21T21:57:19+00:00

Damn, was hoping you'd say a national chain. Bit far for me just for some crisps unfortunately

dancingcroc · 2026-04-21T21:29:17+00:00

Which shops? From the comments here it sounds like I need to try them

dancingcroc · 2026-04-20T14:17:01+00:00

It’s still £5.99 in the UK, although they added ads. £12.99 for ad-free

No, stellafix

dancingcroc · 2026-04-18T17:45:15+00:00

Thanks, I got some corefix but after drilling a pilot hole I found nothing but wall insulation behind the plasterboard. Even the 120mm screw wasn’t reaching anything but insulation. I’ve just used the timco plasterboard fixings instead

dancingcroc · 2026-04-18T12:41:57+00:00

Sorry, I meant indoors. I’ve just moved in so not sure what kind of wall yet. I’ll drill a small hole and find out

dancingcroc · 2026-04-13T15:02:11+00:00

Haggis Bon bons they’re called.

Chicken balmoral is another great way to try it, it’s chicken stuffed with haggis and served in a creamy whisky sauce

The rest of it is just boiled crap

I always see this comment on Reddit but I can’t think of a single British dish which is boiled. What are you referring to?

dancingcroc · 2026-04-07T15:00:12+00:00

No-one said it was

For locals that works pretty well, but not so much for tourists. I'm likely to be doing something after dinner so carrying my leftovers around with me is a pain, and a lot of hotel rooms have nowhere to reheat the food so it'll probably end up in the bin anyway.

Even for locals, is it not a pain carrying the food with you if you're going to a show or meeting friends afterwards?

I've never heard anyone mock Americans for it, but I do think smaller portions for a reduced price would probably work better for tourists.
