echinopsis posted:people tell me in the uk they don't cook to order which may make a difference coz we depends on the chippy, depends on the time of day. a good one will cook to order but when they're busy might have a few bits of fish pre-cooked, but they don't sit around for more than a few minutes. the main difference is whether or not they use frozen fish, because that poo poo just doesn't work. also the hipster idiots who insist on making bad beer batter and pissing about with the chips. they got that poo poo right a hundred years before you were born, stop thinking you can improve it. (also for some reason a lot of chippies have godawful pissweak vinegar, if it isn't clearing your nasal passages at 20 paces it's not fit for human consumption)

vodkat posted:London and pubs down south :'( even in london a chippy charging more than a tenner for takeaway is likely to be a hipster place loving with things. the decent chippies near my home and work (on the edge of canary wharf and the city respectively) are like 7-8 quid for cod and chips, the one near work does a non-friday lunchtime deal of £6 for cod, chips and a can of drink.

duTrieux. posted:this is one of the reasons that i think prop-based effects result in better design than pure CG in movies i've thought this about modern car and (especially) motorbike design, the rise of cad/cam (and the natural swing of fashion between curves and sharp angles) means a lot of modern designs look like utter poo poo because it never exists in full (or even small) scale until it's way too late to change my go-to example of this is the ktm super duke (but all of ktm's bikes suffer from this to a greater or lesser extent) not a single continuous line anywhere on the fucker. this isn't just a "dagnabbit in my days there were songs you could sing along to" thing, i like the pointy "transformer mid-transition" look of modern naked bikes, but this is a jangled mess for no other reason than the designer wanted to do as much designing as he possibly could. (for comparison, the older model did a similar thing but with a much better flow: compare the way the lines of the tail continue through the seat and tank to the total lack of flow in the newer one) also it leads to poo poo like on my current bike - the design is mostly okay (but looks awkward as gently caress from some angles, another problem with a lot of modern bikes), except for literally no reason there's an engine mount right here: that is cut at a 45 degree angle. no reason at all why it can't be flush, but i know some designer somewhere hugged himself at his brilliance in putting that little touch on so quotidian a bit of metalwork. it's only purpose is to dig into the side of your leg. while i'm ranting about kids these days and their crazy trousers, this piece of poo poo just around the corner from me is bad (and has just "won" the carbuncle award for worst new building in london) but there are ten nearby almost as bad: loving thing looks like the textures haven't finished loading yet. just because you can do a thing, doesn't mean you should do it

anthonypants posted:they made a building with greebles needless to say it looks even worse in real life, and just wander round in street view - that whole area is like the result of some sort of "who can do the stupidest loving thing in concrete and glass" competition. i swear it's because canary wharf, just up the road, is deliberately very conservative in the building designs they let on their turf and architects get rejected by them and go "too ugly for hoity toity canary loving wharf eh? let's see how much you like having to look out your precious symmetrical windows at THIS poo poo" mind you at least, unlike the last winner, none of the buildings round here is an actual loving death ray: that melts cars parked nearby on the three sunny days a year we get in london: talking of lovely design - this isn't even the first building BY THIS ARCHITECT to do this:

Graff posted:civilisation was pretty dope if you want something not science you should probably watch civilisation and the ascent of man together, the latter was specifically designed as a reply to the former. then be prepared to find 95% of things called "documentaries" made in the last two decades incredibly grating. i'm so annoyed by modern documentaries. they cracked the format years ago and your media studies degree isn't going to improve it. find a person who knows and loves their subject and let them talk about it, with whatever footage you need to back up what they're saying. works for everything from david attenbrough to that guy who does the lock-picking videos on youtube. bbc4 is amazing for this - i willingly watched a whole history of royal clothing because the presenter was just talking about the subject and telling me, the viewer, the things she felt were important and interesting. that's all you need. if your documentary has a presenter or a talking head who knows less about the subject than a random punter off the street (or at least is pretending to) you've hosed up. if your presenter spends more time talking about how they feel about the subject rather than what the subject actually is, you've hosed up. most of all if the first paragraph of your script includes the words "i'm on a journey" just delete everything and never make a documentary ever again.

epipen posted:the only benefit a documentary gets from a famous narrator, tbh, is being made fun of. yeah there's a few honourable exceptions to that (the world at war, for example - i don't believe lawrence olivier was particularly an expert on ww2) but you've got to really be solid on every other detail to make it not-poo poo.

a couple of my friends worked down there one summer in the 90s, apparently downers - from draw (almost no weed in britain in the 90s) to heroin - were cheaper and more plentiful than even in the lovely bit of london we lived in also they sold a bunch of lovely cheap speed they'd bought down with them to a minor 80s tv star as coke, and spent a week hiding from him i still regret not going with them

Graff posted:what is it with seaside towns and smack this was literally on the camp, they pretty much didn't leave the premises the whole time they were there (not least because they were working 14-16 hours a day 7 days a week) generally though i can't think of a more horrifying place to be doing an upper (let alone a hallucinogen) than a british seaside town. the very last thing you'd want in, say, hastings, is any kind of heightened perception.
