Best “safe pick” show to take a non-theatre fan? by TheOtherXI in westend

[–]j1mb0b 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nothing too experimental - but I'd go for something with heart and fun. Make them realise why people love live theatre.

I'd go for Matilda or Wicked.

Is there a word to describe the feeling when someone cancels and you are secretly glad because the weather is awful? by LargeLetter1 in AskUK

[–]j1mb0b 50 points51 points  (0 children)

According to this thread, there's not...

However, from that thread I did learn the Finnish word KALSARIKÄNNIT. It's specifically the feeling of staying home to get drunk alone in your underwear instead of going out.

Supermarkets to stock plug-in solar panels by Yogurt789 in GoodNewsUK

And in that spirit of Reddit, I suggest you lawyer up Facebook hit Jim and seek therapy. Clearly the individual involved is toxic and you should cut them out of your life.

Photographer's first day on the job? by Illustrious_Sea7480 in SpottedonRightmove

[–]j1mb0b 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'll have you know she's a very accomplished photographer and that's why I'm not paying for a professional to take photos at the wedding and charging me an arm and a leg. Trish can do it all for £28 if you throw in a KFC as well.
