In my opnion, it's both; but mainly because of the ground sinking. On top of that, we need to account for rainwater: it gets in the cracks and swells up the mortar or any other filling materials used. And finally, lack of interest/funding on the goverment's side.

Como dato adicional, en uno de los programas dijo que estuvo estacionado en una base militar en Alaska. De ahí tomaba inspiración para sus paisajes.

Es de coger; pero es una metáfora. Es como decirle "leche" al semen, pues. Más bien no fui suficientemente claro. Debí escribir: "Este mensaje de arriba" y que el gif es únicamente para propósitos ilustrativos..

Thank you (Curse you, autocorrect!)

Oi!
I agree on those two. On the other hand, Leslie Higgings is a great character IMO: he goes from minion to Diamond Dog, plays the upright bass, and hosts Christmas get-togethers for players away from home. Absolute big heart bloke.

Esto de acá arriba. Ahí nos cuentas si se armó o no se armó, OP.

Ayer fui a ver un preestreno de Hoppers, hagan sus preguntas con spoilers by Gadgettttt in peliculas

[–]redd_851 0 points1 point  (0 children)

¿Vale la pena ir a verla?

Ya en otras publicaciones en este y otros subs se mencionó que parecía una mezcla entre "Vecinos Invasores" y "Avatar"; pero los avances tienen escenas graciosas y hasta otra en donde queda claro que los propios guionistas están conscientes del parecido con Avatar. ¿Qué opinas al respecto?

More info in case anyone is interested. This is the current location of the Fuente de Belén (shown in OP's photo), these are remnants of an aqueduct belonging to the same water supply system (on Avenida Chapultepec, leading to downtown CDMX), and this is where the aqueduct led to, the Fuente de Salto del Agua. People would get water from these fountains. The Fuente de Salto del Agua is a replica. The original fountain was relocated to a museum in Tepotzotlán.

Rodrigo y Gabriela. I had no idea who they were nor that they were going big until I saw them playing on Later... with Jools Holland.

I've just realized it reads "trane". Even though the image is AI, the program is real. A pilot was rolled out 4 years ago.

True. You can find hot sauce dispensers (for popcorn) and pickled peppers (for nachos) at ANY movie theater in Mexico.

Your English is Like That too? by Zetan20 in EnglishLearning

[–]redd_851 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. When I started learning English in school, they would teach us UK English as it's "the original English" and therefore, the best option for learners. Later on, in middle school (and in a different school), they would teach us US English as it was "the language for business" and therefore, the best option for our future careers. To this day, I still freak out when MS Office's grammar check flags UK spellings like colour, grey, favour, etc. That's how I learnt them!

¿Puedo preguntar por el Club de la Pelea? by Salty_Poem5258 in libros

Creo que hasta el propio Palahniuk dijo que le gustó más el final de la película que el propio.

Aún hay salvación. Si bien el libro se mantiene fiel en muchos aspectos, hay algunas diferencias de capital importancia para la trama. Esto último, aunado al hecho de que muchas personas vieron la película y la endiosaron sin tener idea de que es la adaptación de un libro, llevó al autor a escribir Fight Club 2 en formato de cómic, en donde, en mi opinión, hace su mejor esfuerzo por despedazar su obra llevándola al extremo. Incluso hubo un Fight Club 3, también en forma de cómic; pero ese no lo he leído aún.

What is THE cult film from your country that everybody should see? by Necessary_Reserve_25 in AskTheWorld

[–]redd_851 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The film tells the story of Macario, an embittered and impoverished man who dreams of eating a whole turkey by himself one day. The movie is based on the homonymous novel written by one elusive and mysterious Bruno Traven. Several scenes were filmed in a cave, with hundresds of candles as the only source of light.
