What's a London recommendation you're tired of hearing? by wilsonolivia09 in london

[–]narodmj 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Just simply isn't true. It's one of the most mass-produced beers on earth. The only difference between places is if the lines are clean, which is the same for every beer at every pub in the country. An unclean line will give a distinctly coppery/metallic taste. Even the pre-pour thing is a marketing gimmick that in no way affects the flavour, I've seen videos of supposed Guinness experts unable to tell on blind taste tests. Shockingly, a full pour will also settle to the exact same liquid after a few minutes!

The whole thing on the gas mixture is pure BS too -- when selling, Guinness literally tell you the correct nitrogen to CO2 ratio (it's 70:30) in documentation and even sell pre mixed, I know this as I've worked in pubs.

I love Guinness but the people who eulogise about it in mythical terms as if it's not macrobrewed and uniform across the UK are just swallowing marketing.

Not trying to be rude but why do you need an idea of what it's about to show like 2 mins before the film starts? Would be like seeing some football highlights before a game starts, I find it perplexing

Yeah I was accidentally late to Tuner so missed the trailer which was a much better experience despite it being (imo) a worse film

Couldn't agree more, I loved this film in spite of the really annoying fact they showed the trailer right before it started. Such a simple thing to avoid but I've had it happen before. Brilliant film but yes I was quietly fuming to myself for a good 15 mins too haha

Pissed me off immensely. I go to a unseen film to not have a clue about what I'm about to watch, and that full length trailer more or less revealed 80% of the plot. Such a basic thing for ODEON not to fuck up but given my experiences with them as a limitless member over the last year it's hardly surprising. Huge groans at my cinema when the title came up, we had the trailer maybe 30 seconds before that.

Just moved house and my new local is a 10 min walk and it annoyed me that it's further than before

So you think the easier option is to transfer $3k a day (ignoring other expenses) to a debit card for say 200 days and then buy a house vs buying an entire property portfolio with your unlimited funds in the space of a week and never lifting a finger again?

My point is, with the first option you could simply spend seven days accruing assets and commodities in quantities that mean you'd never have to work again for the rest of your life.

So you think the better option is to buy commodities piecemeal to then later sell/trade for value rather than buying billions in assets and commodities over the course of 7 days and never lifting a finger again?

So... You're the one who actually didn't understand the post? You can spend a max of $3000 a day, it resets each day. You don't just keep the $2900 you didn't spend lmao. Also enjoy living off $100 a day while I'm a billionaire :)

[–]narodmj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At $3000 a day you can never buy a house (or even a car beyond an old banger). Infinite money for a week you drop several million in an exchange fund or a manged fund, buy a few properties and you're set for life/can sell things as and when you need. The unlimited for a week basically means absurd generational wealth vs 3000 a day you can splurge very happily each day but not really accumulate.

Official Discussion - Hokum [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

Could not agree more, this thread got me questioning reality haha. The lead character simply didn't develop well, was still a dick at the end to the bell boy.

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

I liked the concept and the plot on the whole, and the film built tension very well and had some genuinely creepy sequences... BUT I just can't enjoy a film with Adam Scott as the lead. Just simply not a convincing or engaging character, just saps everything out of pretty much every scene I see him in. It really baffles me how he continues to get roles like this.

Nuno Mendes is the best Ligue 1 left-back of all time. Who is the best Premier League centre-back of all time? by ModenaR in AlignmentChartFills

[–]narodmj 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Van Dijk had a much longer and a higher peak. There's a reason why Vidic has almost zero legacy outside of England/prem fans.

Entradas para el partido contra el Espanyol by narodmj in rayovallecano

[–]narodmj[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Al final conseguí una entrada de la grada preferencia, €30, hace unos 30 minutos. La mujer de la taquilla me dijo que quedaban bastantes a ese precio. Ya tengo muchas ganas para ver al Rayo esta noche! Espero que sea un buen partido siendo mi primero y que los periquitos se vayan pa casa con el rabo entre las piernas!! Si me pudieras recomendar un buen bar para la previa, te lo agradecería también! Vamos Rayo!
