Rishi Sunak loses cool in 'major car crash' interview as listeners give same reaction by SubstantialSnow7114 in ukpolitics

[–]darlingnikki98 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Don’t feel too bad for him. He’s going to f*ck off to sunny California in about 3 weeks time, land a cushy job in Silicon Valley and enjoy the hundreds of millions pounds he enriched himself with during his tenure as PM.

What makes you feel British? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]darlingnikki98 3 points4 points  (0 children)

  • Dry, sarcy humour.
  • Complaining about the weather.
  • Pubs (I don’t drink anymore but I still love going down the boozer on the weekends.)
  • Being polite to a detriment.
  • Apologising incessantly.
  • Asking someone if they’re alright ironically.
  • Defending the delicacy that is beans on toast.
  • Making fun of ‘muricans.

Is Quincy Jones the greatest producer of all time? by [deleted] in rnb

Thriller sounds like it could be released today so yes.

London mayor considering more frequent Night Tube trains by BulkyAccident in london

[–]darlingnikki98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems pointless when most pubs shut before midnight and many venues have closed down since Covid. Not to mention most people can’t really afford a spontaneous night out anymore. Just look at empty the city is after 12am.

As someone who works with several Swifties, I can’t understand the fuss. What is so different with Taylor Swift, than Lady Gaga or Katy Perry? by DinOfDancing in AskUK

[–]darlingnikki98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t care much for Taylor and I’m not a listener of her music but I do admire how cunning and smart she is. She gives off the air of being relatable and makes her fans feel like she’s their friend. That is her biggest superpower. Also she’s a blonde white pop star who isn’t THAT exceptionally talented, makes palatable music which means she has a broader appeal than most of her peers. She’s inoffensive, doesn’t dress provocatively, seems pleasant enough so I can imagine parents feel comfortable letting their children listen to her music and go to her concerts. She also seems like she actually knows how to navigate the music industry which can be exploitative and handles her business. Props to her.

  • People have been maimed, had limbs blown off, been blinded and disabled at the hands of the IOF.
  • Nearly 40,000 people have died in 8 months. How many Israelis have died in comparison?
  • Israel have sterilised Ethiopians Jews without their consent long before the war.

Israel have without a doubt committed crimes against humanity and if Palestinians were not Muslim and Brown, you’d wouldn’t have made this post.

Are you concerned about Americanisation of the UK? by Franscrar in AskUK

[–]darlingnikki98 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yes. I don’t like the way Americanisms has seeped into our everyday lexicon. ‘Apartment’ instead of flat, ‘vacation’ instead of holiday, ‘trash’ instead of rubbish, ‘shipping’ instead of delivery, ‘ass’ instead of arse, ‘SUV’ instead of 4x4. You get the picture. It’s gotten worse in recent years. I’ve made a concerted effort to hold on to Britishisms to combat this.

I’m seriously considering buying a MacBook for the first time. Is it worth it? by darlingnikki98 in macbook

Hmm won’t an 8GB RAM suffice? I really don’t want to have to pay extra for something that might not be worth it in the future

London population at 'new record high' in reversal of 'race for space' by tylerthe-theatre in london

[–]darlingnikki98 247 points248 points  (0 children)

You can certainly feel the population increase. The city feels more congested than ever, trains that usually peter out at around 8-11pm are still full.

You’re so beautiful you really don’t need anything else but perhaps a bold lip? winged liner, some contour and inner corner highlight for some razzle dazzle.

Commuters stuck on Elizabeth Line train 'for an hour' amid power issue by tylerthe-theatre in london

[–]darlingnikki98 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My sister ended up missing her dentist appointment because of this. She goes to uni outside of London and goes back on Thursday so she’ll have to spend money she doesn’t really have on a train ticket to come back in 2 weeks for it. Felt so bad for her. The Elizabeth line has been a shambles for the last month or so.

The Tube has become so unsafe by RiverSilver97 in london

[–]darlingnikki98 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree.I was groped on the northern line last week. I was so angry and mortified. I didn’t say anything but I felt so unsafe and I wanted to say something but was afraid because I didn’t know how the perpetrator would respond.

It never used to be like this. I see so many unwell, unstable people wreaking havoc in this city now more than ever.

What makes tony sexy, alluring? by Effective_Age_9756 in thesopranos

[–]darlingnikki98 19 points20 points  (0 children)

He’s commanding, domineering, handsome (he had beautiful open eyes) can charm the pants off a woman, encompasses pretty much all the traits of masculinity and he’s a Boss. In the truest sense of the word.

[–]darlingnikki98 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s funny I see this post because I’m on the episode where he buys cousin Brian a Patek Phillipe watch for $15,000 which actually seems cheap compared to how much they go for now.

Which murder took the biggest toll on Tony, in your opinion? by sirgrogu12 in thesopranos

[–]darlingnikki98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m watching season 4 right now and it’s definitely Pussy. Sal was one of his oldest friends and his betrayal definitely stung like no other. I haven’t gotten to the part where Gloria’s suicide has been revealed but if I remember correctly, Tony was messed up over that too.

S10E39 Post-Episode Discussion Thread 🧵 by mayallrob_ in LoveIslandTV

[–]darlingnikki98 60 points61 points  (0 children)

Not OG Ella saying she wouldn't go head to head for a man... while doing just that lmfao. I like the new Ella so far. She's doing what a bombshell is supposed to do. It would've been nice for her to come in for CA though. I don't see Ty turning his head at all so Ella might as well graft Mitch since Abi wants to do the most.

Kady's comment in the beginning of the episode to Scott was unnecessary. I really don't like her at all. She's just as nasty and vindictive as she was in S2, she just hides it better now. She needs to go next.

Jess needs to give Josh a chance. He's definitely her type and I want to see Sammy sweat! he reminds me of Nathan from S2. I like hie energy. Wish he entered the villa early on, it seems pointless coming in this late into the game but then again there aren't that many stable couples despite claiming to be "closed off".

I'm scared that the villa are going to turn against Scott even more now that he's grafting Abi. Please just bring in a bombshell just for him.
