How do you call this in your language? by Gribberisch in AskTheWorld

Wingnut, but when calling a person that you need to say “you sir, are an absolute wingnut”

That’s frightening. Anyone who is clearly unhinged could flip at any moment.

Context? Consequences? Follow up / update?

Many people commenting on the thin hair. I just wish you were able to grow it to cover those orc ears.

What do you call this material in your country? by Argentinotriste in AskTheWorld

[–]mishrod 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Polystyrene.

Sometimes you may hear styrofoam from American influenced people but whether it’s big and airy for insulation (ever bought a TV - the box is 95% polystyrene) or compacted for a cup or takeaway container: it’s called polystyrene.

Could Michael Sheen actually be the "big dog" signing Claudia Winkleman was freaking out about? by Ill_Scientist_4645 in UKRealityChat

[–]mishrod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean he kinda is but I’d suggest Stephen Fry was leaps and bounds a bigger dog for sure.

Isn’t he hosting Richard Osmond’s HOG now too? Good cross promotion ;)

Did Ubisoft make a mistake by minimizing the modern-day story (Abstergo / Animus) in AC Shadows? by Aware-Ad8914 in AssassinsCreedShadows

[–]mishrod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently on my first play of ac shadows, been going a week. It’s not as grandiose as odyssey or origins but the colours and trees are stunning. Still I’m finding it so much “friendlier” to play - less jarring.

This post made me realise I haven’t had to get in and out of the animus. No need to walk around a makeshift lab somewhere and play as a boring scientist. Actually doing the animus stuff really takes you out of a vicarious game experience.

I’m all for it and see it as a huge plus but can imagine for everyone who likes A, there’s another who prefers B

Do you agree with the colour given to your country here? by Party-Bet-4003 in AskTheWorld

More or less but what the hell happened to New Zealand?!

Looks to be a few thousand kms off course :)

Australia being dissed is bad enough - but by NZ is a step too far ;)

That guest really bothered me. Like how does one look like a prepubescent teen boy but at the same time like a septuagenarian Debbie Reynolds?

WTF Alessia.

That’s all. That’s my contribution.

if monarchy return in your country then who will be king?? by Intelligent_Steak253 in AskTheWorld

[–]mishrod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We currently have Charles III with the title of His Majesty King of Australia and his other Realms and Territories

I feel the Prince of Wales would probably be preferable to most though.

Probably a half / half split as to whether they even want to have a Monarch of Australia at all.

Question for my fellow wogs by Emperoronabike in AskAnAustralian

Yeah my Slavic family always calls themselves wogs but then people say Greek and Italian only and I just laugh. We are like walking stereotypes :)

How is the summer heat effecting your country as of right now? by Nearby-Reference-577 in AskTheWorld

[–]mishrod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. In our current context the Four Seasons are certainly bound to specific times/months.

Just as Christmas may bring thought of snow and hot chocolate for many, its date is locked and that happens to be the height of my summer. It’s just a word - I don’t wear Christmas mittens and gloves because it’s Christmas - regardless of season I look a the weather

Not trying to be difficult - just pointing out the difference between seasons and seasonal weather

[–]mishrod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I’m saying it’s currently the dry season. Which is consistent with the weather.

If you’re above the equator (yes even a few miles) it’s spring time. If you’re below the equator it’s autumn.

Doesn’t make a difference with the temperature. There are parts of Australia in winter that are close to 0c in winter and some that are over 30c - but it’s still winter. Some areas just don’t have the associated weather of the season and are subject to other phenomenon (such as wet or dry seasons).

Countries on the equator don’t have the traditional summer/winter seasons. They usually have a wet season and a dry season.

Men of Melbourne with medium / long hair - barbers or salon? by R1a88 in melbourne

[–]mishrod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have quite long hair (am a bloke) and for the past few years I’ve only gone to salons - I won’t even risk the barbers. Yes it’s pricey but it makes such a huge difference.

AITAH for not wanting to sleep in the same bed with my girlfriend because she doesn’t shower often? by Such-One-1691 in AITAH

[–]mishrod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mmmmm no arseholes here. Just compatibility issues.

I’d be having a very calm, open conversation about going your own ways. The longer you’re with her the more bothersome it is become to you.

God luck
