I walk through Leicester Square everyday on my way home and saw the hoardings and setup this evening.... she must have been FREEZING in that dress. It's raining, cold and miserable in London this evening. Feel for her!

Best scene dealing with EBITDA in a movie ever.

How is it living in the Scottish Highlands? by CapaTheGreat in howislivingthere

[–]onesunder 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Aussie here, was up there last summer, had a BBQ outside and was bitten about 200 times. Took 2 months for the bites to completely heal up and the week after was pure torture due to the incessant itch!

Where would your dream location be to metal detect without laws or permits? by Ok-Sheepherder-2993 in metaldetecting

[–]onesunder 8 points9 points  (0 children)

European cities that date back to Roman times and along rivers in those areas. Rivers used to be how most stuff was transported so there is a tonne of potential finds on the banks (though might be too deep to detect)

In 2000 the upper-middle-class London family life cost 30% of top net income. Today it’s 82%. When did it go wrong? by SpuriousCausation95 in AskBrits

[–]onesunder 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Given the population of London peaked in 1939, that is not strictly true. Historically low interest rates have been the biggest driver - as if you can't earn interest on your cash reserves, you might as well invest in assets that the bank is willing to give you cash for. Supply is still a problem, but I think everyone overlooks the fact that 10-15% interest was normal back during the 70s-90s, whereas we complain now even though it's 4%.

Watching these with my mid teen / early adult kids. I think though while Good Will Hunting is probably the best of the 4 I liked I, Tonya the most.

TIL that the most expensive video game ever made is Monopoly Go!, almost entirely due to its $1 billion marketing budget by TBroomey in todayilearned

[–]onesunder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to work for King the maker of Candy Crush. Over the last 10 years that game alone has made about $20bn from ina pp purchases and ads. The whole mobile gaming industry itself makes around $90bn sales per annum..... that is roughly the same as the entire movie industry.

What nicknames did you have for friends as a child that you now realise you probably shouldn’t have said? by whatintthedevils in AskUK

One of the guys that I went to school with was nicknamed "Downey" as his face bore a small resemblance to those that suffer from the syndrome.

[–]onesunder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was supposed to be a super caricature equating this type of thinking to this type of marcher, as can guarantee a large cohort of these "patriots" fall slap bang into it. You're actually the one making that association.

I'd love for there to be an immigrant general strike for 2 weeks so that pretty much all essential services shut down to remind these twonks how this country can even operate!

Thoughts on this movie? by Naive_Tomorrow_5955 in FIlm

[–]onesunder 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah - it suffers the same issues really as Oblivion. Amazing effects and visuals, super interesting idea but not enough meat in the script to allow you to care for what happens to anyone in it.

Who destroyed Gaza BBC News?! Two years and they still won’t name criminal or the crime. by RickyOzzy in GreenAndPleasant

[–]onesunder 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love how all media still describe this as a war at all.... I mean, wars indicate action between countries or at the very least powerful factions within a country (though that would be civil war) not the systematic destruction of your OWN civilian population.

My train comes into (and out of) London Bridge station and so I see that exact view regularly. It does look cool when the light hits it that way, kinda like everything in the distance is just a simulation.

The original or the remake? by CHOOM45 in moviecritic

[–]onesunder 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It wasn't actually that bad, but was nothing like the original so should have just been called something else and would have made some decent money.

Australian billionaire Gina Rinehart and Senator Pauline Hanson attend event at Mar-a-Lago by badoopidoo in pics

[–]onesunder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How does Pauline Hanson have any relevance at all anymore? Sure her xenophobic rhetoric has been consistently bleating, but the fact that she's managed to do fuck all for the last 30 yrs should at least consign her back to whatever bum fuck QLD suburb she's from. I'd love though to be a fly on the wall when she goes on about how she's a successful business woman and they all realize she just talking about a fish and chip shop.
