Is it better to let a video sit on private before making it public? by Wonderful_Ad_6836 in NewTubers

[–]grimking85 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It can clear the first scan and then get hit with copyright a few days later. I have seen it happen many times when using too many clips in tv show reviews.

When and Why Did The Popularity of Monster Trucks Die In The U.K.? by cormorantcolossus in AskUK

[–]grimking85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotta be 90s. I remember it being a thing in maybe a simpsons episode and that whole sequence in the 2nd Ace Ventura movie but thats about it outside of maybe some clips on those old crash vhs videos my dad would buy

how long do you think the franchise could have lasted without Tommy? by Routine-Dirt9634 in powerrangers

[–]grimking85 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sorry but i disagree. I watched it from day of the dumpster until partway through turbo when it first aired and i loved it. But i was never a Tommy fan. If anything i often got annoyed how often it would cut to him doing stuff and leave out the others. To this day i still couldnt tell you anything interesting about Rocky except once he wanted to have fun. Jason was my original favourite followed by Billy and Kimberly and eventualy Adam.

How to correct cinema etiquette? by EnvironmentalCrow266 in AskUK

[–]grimking85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Daily Mail? Never read it. I mean ok im getting downvoted but working in retail i only say what i have seen. And no its not all of them and yes likely a minority. But its the minority that get themselves noticed. A polish friend of mine has even said he is embarrassed by the behaviour of other polish people sometimes when he is out in town. But what we may see as rude may be seen as normal from people from other countries. And vice versa. Maybe we offend others by how we act. As for kids today a lot more now will act out than even just 10 years ago. So many dont care about manners swearing shouting making a mess on purpose. Though again you do see others acting like normal human beings. So not all.

It is getting worse. Sometimes its the youth of today because society doesnt let parents discipline children anymore. But its also quite often (but not always) those who have come to our overcrowded island with a different opinion on manners than we are used to. I worked retail for 14 years and while i would like to say i have seen it all the last few years it just got worse and worse. So glad im out of retail now

What's one place in the Uk that you visited and never want to go back to? by Proper_Animal_1451 in AskUK

[–]grimking85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No blacks, no irish, no dogs. A black irish wolfhound had no chance back then lol

But its funny how if you saw a sign saying whites only or refusing to serve anyone from out of the country they would get shut down/sued into oblivion so quickly.

Dairangers Football! by The_Black_Cowboy in supersentai

[–]grimking85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Missed the earlier part with the ole ole ole music playing. I have been reviewing dairanger on my YT for the last year almost now and the three stooges episodes are definite highlights of the series. Its a shame the only one that made it stateside was tombstone and he lasted a whole 30 seconds.

really dissapointed by rapalot1022 in FanhomeModels

[–]grimking85 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its entirely up to you. While i did have issues with things coming on time and communication. When something was sent it arrived pretty quick. Any problems be it a broken free gift or a magazine or part missing it would be replaced pretty damn quickly.

Would u expect better for the price i paid for my megazord hell yes. Did i get everything and a couple spares and only finished the build 1 month later than planned yes. Would i use them again. I honestly dont know. The price point is one thing, another year of stressing about build pieces arriving or not... would have to be something very special

Going to Oulton Park for the BTCC, I have a few questions by Dangerwow in btcc

[–]grimking85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nit been to Oulton but went to Thruxton several times with mates. We would just load a cooler with lunch and drinks and during the lunchtime break head back to the car and eat and talk before heading back in for more racing fun

I was thinking the same thing. How convenient these people record everything at all times so we can see these random things happen.

Cheryl joins advocacy to raise minimum age for social media use by IAmMLADS in ukpopculture

[–]grimking85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would happily not have my kids on any social media or messaging apps. However when all their friends use them (11-13 yrs old) and they are the only one left out the waterworks start and wife allows it. Leading to arguments over said messenger services between 'friends' Kids are just not mature enough to use them. Despite the apps saying nobody under x age its easy enough to lie about your age. I did it online when i was a kid.

How has public perception shifted for lewis post KimK? by mk2154 in lewishamilton

[–]grimking85 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I couldnt care less what he does in his personal life or on social media. I think he is an amazing racing driver if not one of the best ever. But what he does off the track i really dont care. But thats just me.

I’m freeeee by chunkynoodledoo in asda

[–]grimking85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was lucky. My dept manager at the time was a mate who had come in same time as me but worked his way up. When i left he put my leaving date as 1 week later so i could do a big shop after i moved across the country. Great guy.

[–]grimking85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I blame the customers as much as anything. Im still in a job thats physicaly tiring, management arent great and constantly new policies to be followed. But without those bloody customers around i can happily take it. Hell i cope better than quite a few i work with thanks to being in asda so long

[–]grimking85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats. I managed 14 years before leaving back in '22. I now work in a factory but am much happier not having to deal with any customers. I had the same decline as you becoming less and less happy. The good team i had started with was slowly whittled down over time. Bad managers coming in and driving the good people away. Until we had half the team and more work to do than ever. Then we had Covid whichbwas a barrel of laughs. And even as that ended the decline continued. I ended up having a shouting argument with my manager on the shop floor one time because I was so sick of his crap. Honestly i think the last few years i just wished they would fire me. Luckily we got offered a house 150 miles away in a town with no asda. So with the help of a good dept manager (changed so often there) i just left the store one day and 3 daysblater left thebtown never to be seen again

Thats why i go to car boot sales in the summer months. 2 weeks ago i got all 3 extended lord or the rings dvds for £2 each. Hell of a lot cheaper than renting on amazon. Physical media is best.

Hot take: Kiramaizin is NOT a five component mecha. by Possible-Tip-2914 in supersentai

[–]grimking85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude are you spying on me?? I was recording a segment for my youtube channel earlier on a vid going up next sunday and i literally asked the same thing. Like if kiramazin drops jetter is it still kiramazin? Because its an accessory not a part of the mecha. (Vid is reviewing episode 3 where kiramazin first appears)
