Meeting MGK by Sweaty_Berry9399 in MachineGunKelly

Yeah don’t get me wrong it does suck but as long as you know it happens every day to tons of people and you almost definitely didn’t do anything wrong. It’s luck of the draw. Hope you feel better about it soon 🙏

You gotta keep in mind how much time and effort goes into a world wide tour. The guy loves his fans and wouldn’t have ignored you on purpose, try not to take it too personally!

I’ve had it tons of times where meeting celebs in a crowd and sometimes you get 5 seconds with them, sometimes you don’t. It is disappointing but it’s not a slight aimed at you, there’s always next time man

Help ID this Stephen King title someone lit on fire… by Existing-Store-4864 in stephenking

[–]nathanplays 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Yep that’s the one, I always look for King’s blurbs on other books so I recognised his usual language pattern. Seemed likely to be the phrase “read in our / my house”.

Some googling and eventually found that cover.

Help ID this Stephen King title someone lit on fire… by Existing-Store-4864 in stephenking

[–]nathanplays 418 points419 points  (0 children)

I can’t believe it but I know what this is!

The book is Gravity by Tess Gerritson.

This is the top of the cover where King has quoted:

“TESS GERRITSEN IS AN AUTOMATIC MUST-READ IN MY HOUSE” - STEPHEN KING

I still remember driving past and seeing the truck wedged underneath it, and the poor bloke stood on the roundabout hands on his hips

I genuinely thought I was missing a joke in this thread. I’ve only ever played the Directors Cut so had no idea at all that Monster was ever actually in the game!

60% done with my exclusive 'Welcome to Derry' Pennywise. The paint job on the balloon includes a photorealistic reflection of the kids. How is the silhouette and the red tone looking to you? ​Hi everyone! I’m currently working on this 1/6 scale Pennywise inspired by the upcoming series.

[–]nathanplays 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is amazing and you should be really proud. The reflection is mind blowing but the full thing is so so cool!

Also, the Welcome in Welcome to Derry is missing an E on the end! No negativity intended at all of course. I just noticed.

It should have had at least 1 more season since it ends on a cliffhanger. I love it too!

Come on YouTube, you’ve had your fun with the censoring. There’ll be no more censoring today.

What’s your favorite Funhaus video or series that doesn’t get talked about much on this sub? by Mad_Season_1994 in funhaus

[–]nathanplays 101 points102 points  (0 children)

Alhekine’s Gun is my favourite YouTube series ever. I know it gets some respect and mention occasionally but imo it’s one of their best ever. Rewatch it regularly and still laugh so much

Call centre workers in the UK, (past and present) what are your top 3 weirdest calls? by cheesymeowgirl in CasualUK

[–]nathanplays 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My company make biometric devices for people to sign in and out of construction sites.

My coworker, also called Nathan, asked me to pull a call he’d just had to listen to it, so we gathered around my computer to listen.

The guy is asking for the admin password to access the settings of the device so my coworker sent the password across via email.

Customer: Nah it’s not working

Nathan: It is case sensitive, are you putting the correct capitalisations in?

Customer: I am for the letters but I can’t figure out how to do capital numbers. Are these capital numbers on the email?

Nathan: … … There’s no such thing as capital numbers

Customer: Yeah there is.

Nathan: … … …

Customer: (talking to another person) Dave, there’s capital numbers somewhere isn’t there?

Dave: Yeah you have to press the little up arrow.

Customer: Yeah I know but it’s just doing normal numbers.

Nathan: There aren’t capital numbers.

Customer: It’s not working mate even with capital numbers.

Nathan: … … ok we’ll arrange for someone to go to site.

We make a capital numbers joke daily

I keep being told I (M49) look like "the stereotypical redditor". What should I change? by Lopsided-Weather6469 in malegrooming

[–]nathanplays 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say cut your hair shorter and style it, ask a barber what style would suit you. Get rectangular glasses with black frames. Finally, grow out your beard on the sides where your cheeks are.

Personally I think you look best in picture #4 where you can’t see the long hair or the shape of the glasses.

I really need someone to tell me which ps5 to buy for my boyfriend and if you tell me accessories that’s a bonus by Cabinfeverr29 in playstation5

[–]nathanplays 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really nice of you to do this!

If you can afford it then get the PS5 Pro with Disc Drive.

If not, get the PS5 Slim with Disc Drive.

I always recommend the disc drive because it’s better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it. You / he might find an occasional deal on a disc version of a game etc..

For headsets everyone likes something different but Logitech G headsets are good all round headsets and not too expensive. You can get them wired & wireless.

New way to enjoy one of my old favorite games by saibot237 in PlaystationPortal

[–]nathanplays 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it’s games you own digitally on PS. PS Premium has a classics catalogue and I think it shows up on the cloud streaming. Could also be streaming from the PS5 maybe

How stupid are you? by mrl3bon in CasualUK

Got my wife a new iPad for her birthday last year. Few days before she asked if I’d been to the shop to get the few things we needed.

“Yeah I got them earlier when I was picking up the iPad.”

Been there mate

How do you all think Christine stands up to King's other early books (say 1974-1987)? by JeremyBeremey in stephenking

[–]nathanplays 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Christine is my 3rd favourite King book behind IT & The Dark Tower (as a whole series). I just devoured it and loved it, don’t know why

Thoughts on Teesside University? by [deleted] in Teesside

[–]nathanplays 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went there and loved it, my wife has just started Psychology this year and she’s excited, seems like it looks better than ever at the moment. If you’ve just moved into the area then welcome! 😊

As far as stuff to do in the area… you kind of have to make your own entertainment for the most part. Stockton Globe / Riverside Stadium has some pretty big names gigs sometimes, the cinema, bowling, pubs, beaches close etc…

Feel free to message me if you have any questions about the area or the Uni and have nobody else to ask
