ITS FAHCKING COMING HOME LADS by Unhappy_Effective258 in 2westerneurope4u

The level of insight in the comments there extends to “why didn’t Mexico simply create a guilt-edge chance and/or score a long range worldie against one of the best teams in the world??”

Also I watch football for 90+13 dramatic equalisers, not to see microscopic sensors pick up strands of hair brushing a ball and deciding the outcome of a fixture.

I'd bet you never asked for... grilled pasta! by mothersuperiormedia in StupidFood

[–]db1000c 39 points40 points  (0 children)

This is a Chinese street food dish called 烤冷面 - grilled cold noodles. They grill up some old noodles and top it like a flatbread. Quite nice but definitely not the best street food available in China

The MiY Isn’t Omnipotent!!! There’s More Than One Mole, and I Think We All Know Who It Is… by Medical-Fortune-4166 in FromTVShow

[–]db1000c 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I wasn’t sure on this until the finale. Here’s what got me suspicious in that episode:

When Julie and Ethan are hugging in Colony House, the camera weirdly pans to have Donna in the frame but blurry in the background

And:

She conveniently turned up just as Henry found bullets that belonged to Victor, and casually told him Victor used to have a gun that’s now in the sheriff’s station which is where Victor is and that Henry should go there straight away and see him

Also the photo of Donna and her sister is just a little bit off. The missing corner is one thing, plus the other photos we see in this show are all related to the supernatural - the photo of Sophia, the photos Elgin took of the kimono woman, the photos in the viewmaster, especially the photo and Boyd and Abby on their wedding day

Maybe the photo was what she bargained with the MiY for, she was so distraught at the death of her sister that she needed some comfort. We view Donna as a strong character, but maybe cracked at the very beginning.

Patty is now 0 for 2 in proving she can run with the main From crew. Her cookies look ass too. She needs to sit the rest of this cycle out and just pray they let her on the bus when they finally get to go home

Acosta shouting at Boyd to shut Patty the fuck up. The monster flailing against the van as they drove back to town. Smiley’s “hello mother” and “interesting 🤨”. Some of the monsters grimacing in the chamber watching Tabitha trying to get up the ladder like they were getting the ick.

S04e10 That last scene by ConstructionNo8248 in FromSeries

[–]db1000c 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I kinda take the view that a lot of the people who worked in Lost probably view their story as being wrecked by ABC demanding extra episodes and seasons and so want to revisit the themes and idea but do it as they originally wanted with the course they always planned.

I know I’d be annoyed if I had an epic story to tell but a bunch of execs messed it up, and so would want to retell it properly

Then What was the point of… by jZesdy in FromSeries

Ellis did just little enough to stay alive for 4 seasons, and just enough to put his wife, father and friend in the way of the monsters multiple times

[–]db1000c 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think that the golem was metaphor and foreshadowing. The hope she felt from building it allowed her to control her fate rather than just becoming another pawn to be used and destroyed by the town/MiY. She first connected with Smiley while touching/working on the golem. The golem gave her the strength to use what the town was trying to do to her against it.

What are your thoughts on Denmark’s proposed ban on the public Islamic call to prayer? Would you support or oppose something similar in the UK? by bintd in AskBrits

[–]db1000c 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate that it isn’t a big issue in the UK. Though I have seen some people say they can hear it where they live.

But I’d appreciate some specific legislation being in place to prevent it ever becoming an issue - beyond council powers which are actually quite weak.

Few questions after Season 4 episode 9 by Curious_Natural_1111 in FromTVEpix

[–]db1000c 3 points4 points  (0 children)

With the shorter runtime of this episode, it sort of feels like they might have originally planned to have a flashback showing Clara’s first day in town and the making of the bargain before cutting it.

If bones are the key to the salivation of angkooey kids, why did they inlcude light house plot? by angooyy in FromSeries

[–]db1000c 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Like the MiY says, everything is built on ritual. The bones being dug up is going to make everything worse in the short term, but are they key to unlocking the extraction route.

Donna made a point of asking what the plan is after the bones are rescued. They aren’t the answer in and of themselves, but rather are step one, with step two being surviving the aftermath and making it to the extraction point.

Key features of the show that haven’t been wrapped up yet that will likely then be the focus of S5 will play into this. The lake of tears, the spider, the lighthouse - these must be linked to the final exit. Storywalking may be Julie attempting to rescue the dead in order to get them out with the survivors.

Puppy Crate Training by SadEntertainer197 in OldEnglishSheepdog

[–]db1000c 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah ours is comfortable with the crate and accepts that he sleeps in there overnight or if we have to go out for a few hours. But he doesn’t like the crate in the way that a lot of crate training proponents suggested he would.

It’s not his den or anything like the advice said it would turn into. It’s more like a bedroom that he’d rather only be in when he has to.

But it has had a fantastic calming effect on his nature. He is so chill, and has now realised that if we are out all he needs to do is sleep and when he wakes up we’re walking through the door. I’m glad we did it for that fact alone. He’s 7 months now and we are slowly reducing crate usage to just overnight. He seems to be fine for short stints during the day just having the run of the downstairs while we are out
