Entertainment > Movie Genres Favorite movie lines

19 of 40

There are so many fantastic lines in movies this could potentially be a really difficult question to answer; but the question isn't, "What's the greatest movie line ever?" It's just what are my favourites, and there are two which immediately spring to mind. 1) "The Truth About Cats And Dogs" is not an especially memorable or... More..

Arts & Humanities > Writing Tips Uses of the word "there"

1 of 2

In philosophical terms "there" is like a place-holder for whatever it is you want to talk about. Statements like, "Go over there!" or, "Have you seen that there?" illustrate its most straightforward uses. In these examples it's a place or localised area, an object, or perhaps an event.

Sudoku is a number puzzle based more on logic than numbers. First appearing in a New York puzzle magazine in the late 1970's, it became popularised in Japan from the mid 1980's; possibly due in part to the symbol-based language making more conventional Western puzzles eg 'Crosswords' difficult to implement. The Japanese publ... More..

People love America because it's a nation that instills great patriotism in it's people. Few (if any) other countries have an 'Oath of Allegiance' available for citizens to take, which is one example of the grand sense of country and flag many American citizens subscribe to.

A skilled artist can create finer pictures with fewer strokes. Trying to write an engaging story inside a tight word count is both the goal and the challenge of flash fiction.

Video games aren't designed to be funny, they're designed to be entertaining... But with humour being one of the best ways to be entertained, and the breadth of the gaming experience ever-expanding it's only natural that humour should play it's own part. Where should you look to find it? I remember in my youth buying a game ... More..

Relationships & Family > Humor & Laughter Best comebacks for insults

11 of 14

The difficulty with this topic is that the best comeback for any insult is something that you temper to it individually, that makes the would-be ridiculer the one who ends up looking stupid and getting laughed at.
