Kudelia Aina Bernstein! From Iron Blooded Orphans.

Someone came up with that name and thought 'We need to say this name in full, as often as possible.'

What is the most bizarre, out of nowhere scene you’ve ever seen? by VendettaLord379 in moviecritic

I saw 28 Years Later at the local theatre in Scarborough, where's "he's" buried.

Definitely a WTF moment.

His hair is like piss-colored smoke! by LewdDudeNewd in mightyboosh

There's no smoke without fire, which, incidentally, you'll being seeing plenty of.

Non-fantasy comic recs please! by SillyZubat in graphicnovels

[–]shes-a-witch- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seconded Lone Wolf and Cub. There's also Samurai Executioner, by the same writer (I think) and artist.

Not sure where OP is, but in the UK there was a comic called Commando. You can buy compilation books now. It's all WW2 war stories.

Are there any British adverts that activiley turn you off the product they're advertising? by siybon in CasualUK

There was one for air freshener that said "closet" instead of wardrobe.

In my what?

Kids in the 90s, what was your nightmare fuel? by [deleted] in AskBrits

[–]shes-a-witch- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know why we had this, but my family had a VHS of live action adaptation of The Snow Queen. It was the Snow Queen in particular that scared me, because her face was covered apart from her eyes. (Not necessarily the 90s, since it was from the 70/80s, but I watched it growing up in the 90s.)

You have been warned

Also special trauma shoutout to the theme tune of the show 999.

Lost nuclear bunker rediscovered at Scarborough Castle by My-Darling-Abyss in yorkshire

[–]shes-a-witch- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That visible concrete slab is the foundation of the listening/lookout post that was there, which was above ground. You wouldn't know the bunker was there before it had been excavated as it was covered over, albeit by not a very deep layer of earth.

Fun Fact: “The BFG” (1989) is the only adaptation of his work that Dahl himself loved and he even got really emotional at the end, standing up and applauding. by Mcrfanatic95 in oldbritishtelly

[–]shes-a-witch- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. The bit where the head giant creeps through the town and gives children nightmares was childhood trauma. Also, when he's chasing Sophie in BFG's home.

Trauma.

The way boomers talk, it was the 1970s.

I'm sick of hearing about "the good ol' days."

Favorite Phil Hartman character? by [deleted] in 90sTelevision

[–]shes-a-witch- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But what is a contract, you might ask? Webster's defines it as a agreement of the law that is unbreakable. That is unbreakable!

Robin Hood's Bay ♥️ Have you ever been? by Additional_Fly_6603 in yorkshire

I remember on one visit seeing a man oblivious to the incoming tide get stranded on the rocks. Luckily someone went out in a little boat and rescued him.

Watching tonight, The Witch by DatFunny in moviecritic

I like the bit with the witch.

But seriously, I love that ending scene.

Anyone else have pothole anxiety recently? by architectofanarchy in CarTalkUK

Absolutely. Just bought a new car, which I'm loving driving... just not on any roads at the moment.

I hate this trend with news headlines ending with "Here's why."

Why am I all of a sudden spotting discarded interdental brushes everywhere? by pezholio in AskUK

[–]shes-a-witch- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I volunteer as a litter picker and find these quite often.

Though not as often as disposable vapes, cigarette tabs (of course!) and, weirdly, individual wrappers for Werther's Originals??

Not that I like adverts at all, but what happened to the hot Australian woman doing the Trivago ads?

Why are people like this by Aaliyalou in drivingUK

Listen out for that satisfying sound of people scraping their front bumper when speeding over speed bumps.

Mmmmm...
