Wash your mouth out with radioactive waste you dirty Philistine.
Shandy is fine on a hot summer day if you have to drive. Pleasant, even.
That drink is the greatest assault on the Irish nation since bloody Sunday.

It tastes like blood because you’re going to get punched in your potty mouth for ordering it.

- Comment on What are the best examples of a director going "all out" to get the best out of their actors? 2 weeks ago:
Cameron did this with the squad of soldiers in Aliens. They all trained together with military folks for a few weeks before filming started so that they would move like a well trained unit / hold weapons correctly etc.
If I remember correctly the lady who played Vasquez said it was a very bonding experience.
- Comment on Movie lines people laughed at in theaters despite not actually being intended to be funny? 2 weeks ago:
Not sure if this counts as it’s not strictly a line but it’s a family favourite story.
During Interview with the Vampire during a very tense scene, Tom Cruise walks out holding three severed heads by the hair. Well my sister started laughing hard, causing me and then the rest of the cinema to follow suit shortly after.
- Comment on ‘Huge disappointment’ as UK delays bottle deposit plan and excludes glass 3 weeks ago:
I’m exactly the same. This has recently come in in Ireland and it is annoying the piss out of me. It’s a tax with no upside as my recycling hasn’t increased in any way.

Massive props to you for helping the guy out like that. Kindness like that can really turn around someone’s life.

The people closest to them shelter them and beat around the bush not to hurt their feelings
It’s a massive parenting failure to do this to your kids.
My kids have occasionally needed a shower and not been aware. That happens as they go through puberty and learn.
“You need a shower before you head out”. Done. No fuss. It’s not offensive if you don’t tiptoe around it. Mildly uncomfortable the first time but that’s it.
They then learn that it’s not socially acceptable to stink and that they need to pay attention to themselves.

Oooh! 4K Dredd! I wasn’t expecting that.
- Comment on What is your most watched movie, and how many times did you watch it? 5 weeks ago:
I actually completely forgave them (nearly). For the most part I thought they looked great.
Totally agree about the lack of CGI helping with not dating it.
My friend got me this t-shirt for my last birthday which I’m sure you’ll enjoy…
- Comment on What is your most watched movie, and how many times did you watch it? 5 weeks ago:
CarbonatedPastaSauce…we are kindred spirits across the ether. I’d say I’m close to 100 watches overall too.
If you haven’t seen the 4K version yet, treat yo’self. The extra detail in the guns, uniforms, clothes, models etc. absolutely blew my mind. You can really see Cameron’s attention to detail.
- Comment on What is your most watched movie, and how many times did you watch it? 5 weeks ago:
Unquestionably Aliens. As a kid I recorded it to VHS from the TV and watched and watched and watched it.
I deliberately didn’t watch it for around the last 10 years waiting on the 4K version to come out. Totally worth it.

No. They’re the same. I think the second one has become more popular. You should probably just use that. No cap.

- Comment on UCL bans lecturer from China course to protect its “commercial interests” 2 months ago:
Interesting watch, cheers. I find it mental that a student getting uppity about a challenging question has resulted in all of this.
Streisand effect in full display.

I woke up, read your comment and have the flippin’ song bouncing around in my head since.

Gen X?
- Comment on What could be wrong with me? 4 months ago:
This sounds like my wife when her B12 gets low. She needs regular injections.
It honestly could be any number of things. You should go and see a doctor.

We went from first powered flight to landing on the moon in just 66 years. Bananas!

Customers in the Republic of Ireland, Channel Islands, and Isle of Man won’t see ads in their experience at this time.
Well, I got the same email and I’m in RoI. I just agreed to cancel with my wife so ¯\(ツ)/¯

I’d love to hear from just one other human who thought the lyric was
“I went to the danger zone”
Anyone?!?

It surely is fascinating. I like the nuance tbh, especially the subject owning copyright part.

That’s really clear. I appreciate you taking the time to fill me in so thank you!

Wow. So what happens there if you take a picture in a crowded area?
