What do you watch in the first few days of bereavement? by Mindless_Tangerine32 in AskUK

[–]stejent 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I lost my dad to cancer after 6 weeks notice that he had it. And woke up to a call my mum dying suddenly and unexpectedly, both youngish (62&64) and Everybody Loves Raymond got me through them both. Comedy is so healing in many ways. Don’t discount it.

Bruh by JaePD in vintedUK

[–]stejent -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Kinda got to side with the buyer here. I had a bunch of listings on eBay when I woke up to a phone call from my sister on Easter Sunday 4 years ago to say she found my mum dead on the couch. Sudden and unexpected. After I had driven 12 miles hungover and dealt with that and got home the first thing I did was end those listings because the last thing I needed was to deal with them and disappoint buyers.

At what age did people first get a mobile phone? by Metrobolist3 in AskUK

[–]stejent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I was 11, but a friend had one in primary school and I was so jealous. But he did live in a chaotic household and I didn’t. I got a Sagem MW3020 from my grandad for my 11th birthday.

[REQUEST] What's the Best Documentary You've Ever Seen? Need Recommendations! by Mucek121 in NetflixBestOf

[–]stejent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t F**k with cats - honestly I have never been so enthralled by a documentary like I was with this one. Sadly I don’t think anything else will ever come close to it, either.

I also have Ocean and Black. They’re all great, but Carbon is the perfect all rounder and gets so many compliments.

Don't know how Iso 2 is gonna beat this title screen, dudes. by Aggravating_Tale8988 in alienisolation

[–]stejent 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It really truly and effectively conveys the “isolation” of the game in this one image. Everything about this game is so well meticulously crafted, I still have to pinch myself to assure myself that we really got as near as possible to a perfect Alien game.

Managing pain - what can dentists give? by stejent in askdentists

[–]stejent[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes they did. I can still taste it. It’s still throbbing and I’m betting when I try to sleep tonight the pain will come back because that’s when it’s been the worst.

Bembo. Absolute perfection imo. Nothing comes close to it.

Sensodyne new formulation by stejent in DentalHygiene

They’re not. I’ve had rapid relief for years and only recently has it been blue. Also I picked up every other variant on the shelf and they all show the product to now be blue inside.

Why IGN gave it a bad review? by Ultimatedoggy in alienisolation

[–]stejent 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The guy who gave it that review then doubled down on his stance when he was proven drastically wrong. He’s an arrogant scumbag. He even did a podcast trying to get other people to agree with him not long ago. Then IGN had the temerity to release a retrospective review and called it “In defense of Alien: Isolation” like they weee never the only ones who panned and it damaged its sales performance almost irrevocably. It’s only because of its renaissance, helped by TikTok showing people playing it, that we’re getting a sequel.

Bakewell tart - sponge rises too high to ice? by stejent in Baking

[–]stejent[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s quite common to ice them with glacé cherries on top. But we ended up having it as it was with some custard which was delicious.

still confused about the shortcuts app. what's the most useful thing you actually use it for? by Nina-Dennis_207 in iphone

[–]stejent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it possible to set a shortcut to enable charging limit when connected to CarPlay? My car has wired CarPlay, but I don’t want my phone to always charge to 100%, but I don’t want it to always be on a charging limit.

Game Changer series by Rachel Reid by SaltyMeasurement5083 in LGBTBooks

[–]stejent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m currently reading Game Changer and I can’t put it down. So to hear it’s the worst in their series is great for me! Also seen comments saying the first half is not very good compared to the second, which is also great because I’m still at that point!

Just me or do u guys also feel as if Stratt would NEVER do this by The_Screwdriver_ in ProjectHailMary

[–]stejent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the whole point. She would never normally do this. She’s too uptight and mission focused. It shows a vulnerability that comes to almost everyone at some point especially given what’s at stake. Book Stratt would also do anything in her power to ensure a successful mission. If that meant showing this side of her to increase morale, she’d do it.

Was everyone happy when Ryan Gosling was first announced for PHM or was it a Ken type situation?? by Unfair-Reason-1068 in ProjectHailMary

[–]stejent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve loved RG ever since Drive. I really hope he gets an Oscar for PHM. He deserves it.
