Reply to Buffy The Vampire Slayer 1992 is freaking weird by zak55

Loved that movie as a kid. I don't remember it being quite as bad as you say. I wonder if you're a bit younger and maybe just not used to seeing movies from the 80's and early-mod 90's. Perhaps a kid growing up in the late 90's - early 2000's may not be accustomed to that schlock we used to watch before tons of CGI.

Reply to comment by JasonDavidWongPargin in TIL Jonny Greenwood pretended to play keyboards for months when he joined Radiohead. He was told "I can’t quite hear what you’re doing, but I think you’re adding a really interesting texture" by btb331

I mean, if you read the article, the guy spells it out pretty clearly so there's not a lot of room for confusion.. hard to tell in text, but he seemed like he was being honest. The story being true is funny and crazy to believe lol

Reply to TIL : In World War II, the youngest serviceman in the US military was Calvin Graham — age 12. Graham lied about his age when he enlisted in the US Navy. His real age was not discovered after he was wounded. by PyrowithJared

>His real age was not discovered after he was wounded.

His real age also was not discovered after he signed up. Or after his first day in the Navy. Or his second.. Oh see, the list of moments where his real age was not discovered is probably a long list..
