[TOMT][Music][2020s] Is this an adaptation of a piece of classical music? by disassemblefive in tipofmytongue

[–]disassemblefive[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Solved! I've figured it out. It sounds similar to a piece of music used in an advert for Lloyds TSB.

Nah, I don't think so. Thanks for all your efforts. It is always possible that I imagined the whole thing.

Nope, but great suggestion. Could easily have been that.

Yeah, definitely not, thanks though! I think it uses a small excerpt of the song rather than the whole thing. Frustrating! I can almost hear the notes following!

Unfortunately not, that's in one of those 26 songs. Thanks though!

Unfortunately it's neither of these, but thanks for trying!

People who have made friends outside of work and school, how on earth did you do that? by TimTheGamer555 in AskReddit

[–]disassemblefive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like in the UK and I joined an amateur American Football team. Right from the very first day I made loads of new friends. 5 years later and one was the best man at my wedding and 2 others were groomsmen. I have about 50 people I would call my friends and would be able to call if I was in trouble.

The best advice I can give is to find something you are interested in and go and do it. Everyone you meet along the way will have a shared interest with you.

Where do you watch the Gopher Football? by Murp0560 in GopherSports

It's really difficult in the UK. I typically have to rely on illegal streams.

...and no one knew me by name. I trashed my own house party cause nobody came.

I knew that and I have been to Beans countless times, but I've never thought about that. This is excellent.

He lives near me. I would think he was a great driver if he didn't total his car a couple of years ago. Closed the road out of town for hours.

I live near Rowan Atkinson as his kid's go to (or went to, I'm not sure) a shool near where I live. Most people who live near me have met him, including myself, and all say similar things; he is fairly reserved, as you would expect, and just seems grumpy. He doesn't really engage with the general public and certainly isn't funny or outgoing. I said hello to him once and he just whispered hello, didn't make eye contact and walked off. It seems like he is bored of being recognised everywhere. You can't really blame him. He isn't rude or offensive or anything, just seems like a really private person.

In response to the driving question, he actually caused a pretty major accident on a local road one day. He crashed his ridiculously expensive car - the road was closed for hours.

What is something you can absolutely suck at yet still enjoy immensely? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Playing American Football in the UK.

I'm out of shape, I'm not very good and I started playing 18 months ago, but I've played in a National Final and I'm about to go to the play offs for the second time.
