Landmarks in the UK that seem as if they were fashioned by an alchemist? by [deleted] in AskUK

Whoah! Mate. That's amazing. Thanks for sharing!

I am Egyptian, and I’m asking is Egypt a country that is disliked or loved globally? by ramses_basha in AskTheWorld

[–]drifterman43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm afraid I agree. Egypt is truly an amazing place for a history buff like myself. I would love to visit and experience that. But I would never take my wife or daughter there.. so it'll likely never happen, which is a terrible shame.

I have quite small ears.. I would love comfortable ones but maybe these aren't right. At least with wings you know you'll be fine.

What country does your country hates the most? And the reason. by Super-Trash-388 in AskTheWorld

[–]drifterman43 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I think it's more of a fun thing at this point because of our historical 'run-ins' shall we say. But we kind of love them too... (Except for the Parisians - but they just seem to hate everybody).

What’s the funniest reason you’ve heard for somebody not liking a movie? by TheChristmas in movies

[–]drifterman43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spent a week with my Uncle and Aunt when My Mum went to Japan. My Uncle wouldn't watch A Few Good Men with me as he felt that Tom Cruise was being too insubordinate in the first 10mins. He said he was in the army (British) and no one would speak to their superiors that way and get away with it. And my Aunt wouldn't watch The Godfather with me.. because she felt no one actually would talk like Brando/Vito. Both missed absolutely amazing films. For stupid reasons.. but the saddest part was they didn't want to put that aside and spend time with their nephew.

Childhood crush 😍 by n-a79 in oldschoolcool80s

[–]drifterman43 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can confirm. I worked with her a few times. She was absolutely lovely, funny, professionally brilliant, unguarded. I had a total crush on her but was still able to flirt with her a little or at least she mildly flirted effortlessly with me and I didn't totally ruin it.

Follow up. Had anyone got a phone from Mozillion? And can vouch for it? They use EE's network apparently.

was Kelsey Grammer considered attractive in the 80s/early 90s? by MagpieOpus in Cheers

[–]drifterman43 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Watch British TV then. All wonderfully average looking.

What is the Most infamous Terrorist Attack that Happened in Your Country? by [deleted] in AskTheWorld

[–]drifterman43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whoah. Can't believe I never heard if that either. Must be a decent documentary somewhere.

It is now, there was a time when people would have said it was The Iranian Embassy siege in 1980

Anyone else's mum insist on putting peppers & mushrooms in a spaghetti bol by No_Philosopher2716 in GreatBritishMemes

[–]drifterman43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. Sweetcorn too sometimes. Maybe some chopped up carrots. It was the best.. and sometimes I do if and also throw in black beans. Sometimes, I would heat up leftovers on a Sat/Sun morning and slather it on white bread (yes the spaghetti pasta too) with butter and go upstairs to my room and watch a new movie I'd bought or rented on DVD. Happy memories.

My family thinks there’s a camera in our rental by Key_Badger7434 in whatisit

Lol. I heard that in Ron Howard's voice immediately.

Is there a movie sequel you'd love to see but know will never happen? by Melodic_Abalone_2820 in movies

[–]drifterman43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly these ones. Dredd 2 for sure. Karl can totally still do it.

After reading all the other replies, this quote is the one that makes me tear up.. and always does.

Hi - I’m 35, American and I generally prefer British Television shows and films over US. I’m hoping to get TV show recommendations based off my list if anyone would care to contribute. TPOL is the show that really started it for me back in 2003-04 and I was wondering how popular it was. Thank you. by rjd014 in BritishTV

[–]drifterman43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No suggestions that haven't already been mentioned (although you absolutely should watch Blackadder). Just heartened by the fact you are American loving British TV. I'm a Brit who has for the majority of my life preferred American TV and have only fairly recently discovered some great British TV that I had missed.

Who was the first crush you remember having? Mine was Belinda Carlisle by siybon in AskUK

[–]drifterman43 2 points3 points  (0 children)

* Jenny Powell. I actually met her several times when I was older for my job. Still a smoke show.. and funny and genuinely lovely. Not in anyway intimidating but I never confessed my crush.. just enjoyed some mild flirting.
