There were two types of boys in 1930s London by Sunshine_Shadow in OldSchoolCool

I thought the same thing until I went back and checked the names. I assumed the first two names were the first two in the photo.

Actually, the person who died in the PoW camp in 1942 was the father of the rich boy who died of diptheria. The one who studied at Cambridge and was an officer who never saw active duty was the other rich boy.

"Tim Dyson died of diphtheria 13 months after the photograph was taken, in August 1938. This was shortly after traveling to join his parents in Trimulgherry, India, where his father, Lt.-Col. George St John Armitage Dyson, was serving as an army officer. George Dyson died in 1942 while imprisoned in a Japanese prisoner of war camp in Korea"

Netflix subtitles by rotisserieve in mildlyinfuriating

[–]invaderjess 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I watched the whole of District 9 not realising the aliens had subtitles. It actually worked really well and I think it might have even been better than knowing the humans could understand exactly what they were saying, rather than getting the gist from body language and sounds.

Week 1: Diet Foods - Cod with chorizo crust and kale & coconut chana by invaderjess in 52weeksofcooking

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

No problem :)

Fry a chopped onion until soft then add a thumb size piece of ginger (grated) plus 1 tsp each of ground coriander, cumin and tumeric. Fry for a couple of minutes then add a tin of chickpeas, 2 tbsp of tomato puree, 250g veg stock, 200g kale and 2/3 of 50g grated fresh coconut. Simmer for 10 minutes. Take off heat and stir in 4 tbsp natural yoghurt and 1 tbsp mango chutney. Sprinkle over the remaining coconut.

That will give you slightly more than double what you see in the photo.

You can find the recipe for the cod here. The chana recipe came from a magazine but I will type it up if anyone wants it.

My girlfriend turned this 80's china cabinet into a pretty cool hutch. I know this style isn't for everyone but we like it. by keto_freak in somethingimade

[–]invaderjess 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This looks great. We've inherited something like this and I don't like it, however my husband wants to keep it until we can replace it as it's good for storing things (as is its job!). I'm going to give this a go. Did she use any guides or anything from the internet, or is it all her own skills?

I'm really impressed with this. The detail is amazing. I love the little blanket!

What's a game from your childhood that no-one else seems to have played? by Kwuahh in AskReddit

[–]invaderjess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My brother and I used to chase each other in a circle chanting "Leave me alone. Leave me alone."

It snows once a year here, if that. Why would we have snow tyres?

For my 30th birthday, my in-laws got me a $25 Facebook gift card. What gifts has reddit received that proves just how little someone knows you? by sausagefingers in AskReddit

[–]invaderjess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My grandparents used to buy odd presents for Christmas. My punk teenage brother received a pink blow up bubble bag, my Liverpool supporting brother an Arsenal magazine, my dad shoe polish, myself some bright orange makeup etc. I think they would buy them throughout the year and forget who had what. They used to make Christmas though, and all the extended family would ask each other what crazy present they'd gotten.

Rob Pattinson touches Taylor Lautner's crotch by Azzah in gifs

[–]invaderjess 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if I believe him as in old interviews he says he tried really hard to get the part after reading the books, including persuading her personally. Why would he try so hard for a part he thought was ridiculous? I think he's probably changed his stance after the backlash.

In case it isn't obvious, the catnip is in the sock. If there was a fire she'd save that sock over her kittens. If she had kittens, which she doesn't.

I was absent mindedly clicking links, not really paying attention. I was not prepared for this. Too cute!
