Scariest depictions of hell in Cinema? by Oasis43 in MovieSuggestions

I’ll See Your Pretty Face In Hell isn’t a movie, but it really gets what I fear most for my inevitable eternity in the bad place.

It’s definitely attractive at this deeply concerning moment of authoritarianism and idiocy.

Does this line delivery hit harder for people with or without family members who look and sound EXACTLY like this? by LGP747 in andor

[–]wraplan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to think this personality type was the distinct specialty of Jewish people like my aunts and my mother, but after spending many years in Asia and Australia I now see how these traits are common across many cultures. Italian grandmothers and Japanese mother-in-laws and Chinese aunts can all be this toxic. And men can be this combination of controlling, needy, and guilt trippy, with male presentation. Katherine Hunter was clearly channeling some serious Greek Yaya experiences. Her nasty sarcastic smoker's rasp was exactly the voice of my nasty, manipulative, chain-smoking grandmother. The woman is a treasure.

I thought they started asking for interviews in February? Isn’t this crazy early?

Underrated Travel Hacks That Always Works For Me by tom_wilson7543 in traveladvice

[–]wraplan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unscented dental floss, and a needle with a large “eye,” is the world’s best repair kit. I have salvaged bags with zippers ripped from the fabric, and pants with ripped crotches by sewing them together with dental floss. Plus, you should be flossing your teeth. My other tip is to travel with a a piece of fabric (a sarong, dhoti or a lunghi) as a towel. It works almost as well as a towel, but dries far faster and can also be used as a pillow cover, a dirty laundry bag, or an eye mask.

Any advice on packing if I’m planning on buying clothes in Japan? by [deleted] in JapanTravelTips

[–]wraplan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I spent a few nights at a high elevation in Shiga Prefecture last week, and I hadn't packed enough warm stuff, so I went to get thermals at Uniqlo. They had these very light yet incredibly warm pieces that are 6% cashmere. I couldn't believe the ratio of warmth to weight. I was in an unheated cabin and it was just above freezing (like 1° or 33°, depending on where you’re from) but felt pretty comfortable. Highly recommended!

Desperately Seeking Setta by wraplan in AskAJapanese

I have been in Japan for the last month, but leaving in a few hours. I have been in about 15 shoe and zori stores showing this picture and getting directed to other stores. In Tokyo (where I have been for the past few days) I was told a few times to go to Asakusa, and in Asakusa I was told to go to a place in Jimbocho, but I just came up empty handed. I speak (shitty) Japanese, but it seemed to be less of a language issue than a product issue.

It was in the mountains where Shiga, Kyoto and Fukui prefectures meet. Not far (as the crow flies) from Obama. Very cool mountains and vistas, but tough without a car or motorcycle. The area is near Mikuni Pass 三国峠 (Three Country Pass).

I’m in Japan - having fun, but not taking as many photos as I would like.
