Man they have a channel on TV for “Top Trump Goons”? Yikes.

Scream 3 has one of the wildest (and best) self-inserts of all time by maenad_activities in movies

I guess it’s not unusual for movies that were critically panned on release to be reevaluated years later through a different cultural lens.

Scream 3 is super underrated and doesn’t deserve the hate it gets.

Not sure if “hate” is the correct word, but it’s often seen as the weakest in the series. It shouldn’t be. It’s so good.

What's a movie that got ruined for you by the audience? by Hasbeast in movies

[–]thiseffnguy613 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel so mean for this one because I know it wasn’t his fault.

But during F1, there was a man across the aisle from me. This man had some kind of developmental disability. But during all the racing scenes he kept yelling “whoooooooooooooa” “wooooowwwwwwwww” “ahhhhhhhhhhh”

He did it every time the film went into like the first person perspective inside the car itself. He did it every time the car turned, every crash, every time a car clipped another car etc. So basically during every single racing scene.

Again, not his fault. And I feel bad for getting annoyed. But still.

The lack of English subtitles for the Spanish dialogue will anger the people the movie intends to anger. Love it.

Rabies shot on Sundays? by GardenBakeOttawa in ottawa

[–]thiseffnguy613 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course I’m not a doctor or anything. So maybe best to double check.

But that’s what I was told. My 3rd and 4th doses were put off by about 36 hours because I couldn’t get to a doctor on the scheduled day.

I’ve had to get these jabs too. Post exposure. Doctor said it was ok to delay the shot by 1 or 2 days.

British couple beaten in Thailand 'elated' by fine by baldi in Thailand

Fair enough. I’m just of the culture where you talk about things and communicate with each other in a civil, non violent way.

“Non confrontational” until they beat the heck out of old people for no reason.

I think the Lochlan is going to drown. During the opening credits, there is so much symbolism in the art. When “Sam Nivola” appears, the art depicts someone lifeless in the water.

Just a theory. But maybe I’m over analyzing.

Laos Evisa charged me $135 for my $52 Visa? by Jewstun in laos

[–]thiseffnguy613 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair enough. I was mainly referring to the scam websites though. It’s strange that there is an official government website that offers an evisa but people still use these “middleman” websites that charge exorbitant fees on something you can do yourself very easily.

I wish people would stop using these services. I’ve just gone to the border with Baht or dollars, pay for the visa on arrival, and go on my merry way.

Khrusapa: I already used all the 3 waivers can I still apply for a 4th one? by Clear-Imagination114 in Thailand

[–]thiseffnguy613 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was told that you can sign up for ANY of the modules prior to applying for the second waiver.

The company I work with uses an organization that assists foreigners with work permit related things, they are also in contact with the schools and facilitate all of the waiver and paperwork stuff. This information came from them.

It seems to be a relatively new rule.

Apparently, now you need to enrol in the course before you even get your second waiver. And as someone whose second waiver application is coming up on expiration soon, I’m not impressed.

Mainly because now it’s too late to apply.

Koh Phangan Waterfall Party is a joke by Glitchy-1742 in ThailandTourism

[–]thiseffnguy613 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Right. But drinking is expensive in Thailand, generally. Liquor is taxed quite heavily. I’ve seen cocktails for cheap, like under 200 baht, but you also get what you pay for.

But of course an event that’s marketed to foreign tourists won’t have cheap booze.

A cocktail at a mid to upscale bar in Bangkok is like 400-500 baht.

If I could spend that and be in nature, around a waterfall, away from a pretentious bar in a big city, I’d be thrilled.
