January Was A Tough Year But We Made It

Hi, so, just a question, hadn't the OG bench already been replaced before? The one in the tv show is different than the one that has been replaced now. The bench handles are different…

The “OG” one

The one in the show (s1)

Idk maybe I’m wrong, could you explain if I am?

Hiya! :)

Short answer: for the filming they put more benches there and changed the layout :) it's unlikely that the bench we see in the shot remained in the same place.

Long answer:

In 2017 when they were filming Good Omens there, there were only two benches in that place

But for showing that this is the place where many opposite agents meet they needed more benches, for example here we see five.

So they must have added benches for the filming.

Furthermore the layout of the park benches changed over the years (it has been more than 7 years since filmiing S1! :D ❤), until 2021 there was the layout with two separate benches

Somewhere around 2019 when the show came out the park put the benches together:

and here I suppose people picked one of them as the The Bench.

In 2022 they added two more benches next to them:

This layout remains until now.

So as the OG bench was picked the bench that was in the place, but yes it is not the one that the butts of Michael and David touched, because of the filming changes to the park benches :).

The word you are looking for is “selfish.” Not narcissist, not sociopath, selfish.

Mage titles like "Lord of Lightning" or "Child of Darkness" are no different from army nicknames: They're usually based on inside jokes. You didn't realize this until you got one.

I had somehow found Will Wood’s phone number spray-painted onto an underpass, decided to text him, and I ended up blackmailing him into making more music. I dunno what that says about me, but it sure does scream.

probably the best advice I've ever got was from my grandpa when I moved from my town and started a university, he told me to leave the house everytime when I start to feel down, just to go to the park, a supermarket, a bookstore, to even drive in a bus or tram, just be around other people because staying at home all the time kills you; and you know he was right

From the people who brought you Squid Facts, Horseshoe Crab is Calling

I don't know about you, but I need a little joy right now. Earlier this month, I was walking down the street in my neighborhood and I came upon this:

I was like "Wow. Ok. Yes I AM picking that up." I couldn't resist! What an enticing strategy!

I had to try it myself.

After kicking the idea around with a few friends, I landed on "Horseshoe Crab is calling", and we updated to the modern iOS. Maybe i should have kept the green and red, I'm not sure.

Who the hell wouldn't be intrigued by this?!

I think part of why I can’t get into any Tolkien stuff outside of Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit is because I immediately lose interest once the gay little hobbits stop being center-stage. “The main hero is CeleFinElfidor the Bold, an immortal warrior who slew three thousand balrogs with a song” makes me go to sleep. but “his name was Blorbo Boffin and his neighbors said he was a queer creature who liked to eat strawberries” is Intriguing. Instantly you’re invested. You immediately see the vision

thing is - and hear me out - if s3 does by any minute chance incorporate any suggestion of a sex scene, it is imperative for me that they commit to the bit. i need crowley to nearly topple over trying to get out of his jeans, i need aziraphale to complain that they cant do anything downstairs because that would be scandalous, and i need them to trip over going up the stairs because they keep getting distracted. i need one of them to accidentally get an elbow to the face, i need them to have a long forgotten book digging into one of their backs, and aziraphale is horrified when crowley launches it across the room, and i need there to be hard cut to whickber street having a huge power surge, lines sparking, all the power going out, and every car alarm in a 2-mile radius start screaming, i don't need it to be explicit or overly romantic but i do need it to be fucking funny
