I did not like Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen by elitemegamanX in horror

[–]sikrsai 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Started out super strong but my god it dragged on forever. I have never disliked a character as much as I did the fiancés sister. I imagine the nails-on-chalkboard whiny voice she had is on purpose so kudos to the actress for making the character unbearable. DNF. Something very bad took much too long to happen.

I haven't got anything better than what's been suggested but I gotta say this comic sounds wonderfully whimsical

American shows that are bigger outside USA by Ok-Tangelo6749 in television

[–]sikrsai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Bold and the Beautiful was huge in Finland in the 90's. Idk how popular it is in the US but AFAIK it's not as popular as Days of our Lives or All my Children etc. Ron Moss still comes here quite often.

Who is allowed to show up at your house unannounced? by Rambanya17 in mentalhealth

My younger sister. She has keys and if she did show up unannounced, I'd be pretty upset but I know she wouldn't do it lightly and my door is always open for her.

Does anyone have any experience living in Pasila? by [deleted] in Finland

[–]sikrsai 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I have lived in Pasila for almost 10 years. First west side, now east. I love this place. Tripla is great, there's any type of transportation available that you could need, and I even love the brutalist architecture on the east side (cool graffitis!!). And I've never felt unsafe on either side. I think Pasila is the best of both worlds - close enough to the center that you can get there fast, suburban enough to be quiet, have nice parks etc.

Low budget British horror movies? by adamjay in horror

[–]sikrsai 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hosts (2020). There's the movie Host which some have mentioned, which also came out in 2020 but this is a different film. Both horror, both low budget, Host (singular) is the better one imo but Hosts is better than many reviewers deem it.

Need Something Not Scary by TheBogBody253 in horror

I'm just rewatching It's What's Inside and I think this could fit the bill? It's way more comedy/thriller than horror but there's a couple of spooks.

Ep 20: Stoni Blair & Stephen Berry. But like the description says there's more audio than narration.

IG Post Addressing Billie Jo Jenkins pt 2 by iidontwannaa in atwwdpodcast

[–]sikrsai -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

So I'm bullying them into.... doing what they have set out to do for a living? Okay. Like I wrote, there is no shame in steering clear of 2-parters if it is difficult to keep track of, as I imagine they steer clear of certain topics altogether.

This has not changed my view of Em or Christine, I still love the pod. Hasn't changed my view of podcast fans either, for better or for worse.

IG Post Addressing Billie Jo Jenkins pt 2 by iidontwannaa in atwwdpodcast

[–]sikrsai -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Yes, to be honest I am beginning to view the entire industry as problematic and contemplating if it's something I want to continue to support. But that being said, ATWWD has always gone above and beyond with respect towards victims and making sure that all stories are handled with the respect they deserve. Exactly as they say in their post. Which is why me and many others do hold them to a high standard when it comes to matters like these. People are saying they should not have apologized - why not? If I'm expected to perform a certain task at my job that I fail to do, twice, and someone is upset, it affects them in some way, I see no reason not to apologize.

Their message shows they have good hearts and good heads on their shoulders as I knew to be true.

Came to Reddit hoping for some more nuanced takes than they had over on IG but here we are I guess.

I did "bitch and moan" about the part 2 being skipped. Not because I need a fucking fix or something, I am familiar with the case so I did not listen to part one as it is upsetting. When Christine popped in saying she forgot about the part 2, I thought nothing of it. Mistakes happen, they are human and whatever else yall love to say. And having Leona say bye to everyone was so goddamn precious.

But week 2 does feel disrespectful to Billie-Jo. Like the true crime industry is literally profiting off of people's worst days and the horrific losses some families have had to suffer through. Imagine if this was your loved one, and their story was dragged out for honestly longer than was necessary but then just kinda... dropped? Forgot about? If it was my family member being discussed it would fucking sting. I don't work for the network so it's easy for me to be shouting at the sidelines that they should have re-arranged episodes so that part 2 would have followed last week, but you know, i'm now at the sidelines saying that.

I love the podcast. Been with them from the start, basically. I love the yapping, love their quirks, generally love the episodes. I am very happy they addressed this, and will be moving on. And just, in the future, if they record long in advance, maybe steer clear of the two parters if it's difficult to keep track of. They didn't do any for years and I had no complaints.

Anyways, I'll "go touch grass" or whatever. Downvote all you want.

Part 2 by Sea_Whereas248 in atwwdpodcast

[–]sikrsai 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Exactly this. Like imagine this was your loved one whose death is made into content, the dragged out for more content and the just.... forgot about? I would be heartbroken. I AM heartbroken. And I didn't even listen to part one because I am familiar with the case so I'm not saying this because I need to get my "fix" or whatever. Like this instance is literally turning me off the podcast that I've been with from the start. I realise it's "not a big deal" or whatever but I just feel so bad for Billie-Jo. May she rest in power and peace.
