  1. That might be the first time I've seen someone over the age of 14 seriously advocate ancap politics.
  2. Liverpool have signed an old man and the Scouse are revolting.
  3. I do enjoy a shite attempt at humanisation.
  4. Is Greenwood actually any good? Is he good enough to be worth... this?
  5. Instead of telling everyone how much you hate Rangers, have you considered suggesting an alternative? Using statistics to point out how redundant the choice was? "The keeper can't have been good in a 4-0" is reductive, meaningless nonsense.
  6. The Zuck would pull out Elon's hair plugs and choke him to death with them.
  7. 68 kilos those dogs weigh. Each. That's more than me.
  8. You know how people on the internet often type how they sound? I've just seen someone say "saink" instead of (presumably) "something" I'm almost impressed at being able to work out that's a word.
  9. I had no idea I was bisexual, even when I was spending 18 hours a day watching lesbian orgy porn.
  10. Incidentally, anyone sharing links to "x.com" is definitely federal.
  11. If it makes you feel any better I was sure you were at least in your fifties.

  13. Event Horizon (1997): Lawrence Fishburne leads a spaceship to the skies above Neptune to find a ship long thought lost. Sam Neill is on board and explains it travelled through a wormhole and came back, bringing hallucinations, gore and general unpleasantness. Lots of extremely stylish sets, a horrifying premise and Jason Isaacs are let down by studio meddling (it was rushed out because Titanic was delayed, I'm not sure where the audience crossover was), some weird characters and Morpheus playing the whole thing like a robot. If I saw this when I was 12 it would have scared the shit out of me, but I didn't. Still, it's the sort of sci-fi that should be made now. In the Loop (2009): The Thick of It featuring Tony Soprano. Some characters from the TV show return as is. The rest return as is but with different names. The problem with making a feature length version of The Thick of It is that there are long gaps between the sweary Scottish people, and these are filled with Americans who aren't funny. Mouse Hunt (1997): Two brothers discover their dad left them a house. The house has a mouse in it which evades all their attempts to kill it. Classic slapstick farce, and a nice throwback to my childhood where I no doubt wore out the tape. Dumb, not as funny as I remembered, but a welcome nostalgia trip. Ghostbusters (1984): And on the subject of tape. The biggest difference between watching this now, streaming in HD and on tape on whatever television I had 20 years ago is seeing how all the scenes from the end outside of the main set are paintings. Good paintings, mind. Mean Girls (2004): A homeschooled girl who is clearly a genius despite having the Janitor from Scrubs for a dad goes to school and hits literally every single American high school cliche imaginable. She makes two friends, one of whom is quite clearly a man in his thirties. Some laughs, a performance from Lindsay Lohan who seems very aware that it's a breakthrough for her, and finally some context for so many references I've seen over the years. Felt oddly shallow by the end, but not in a Plastic way. Casino Royale (2006): James Bond sells Smirnoff, Omega (not Rolex), Sony electronics, Ford and Aston Martin (owned by Ford) while playing a game of poker which as far as I can tell lasts about a week, and features handy running commentary for people who've never stayed up all night watching PokerStars on Channel 4 while hideously depressed and wondering just how hard it could be? I'm no Bond historian, and I've seen Daniel Craig's films much more than anyone else's, but I really can't connect this character to any of the others I've seen, and it definitely feels like a good thing. There are times where it suffers from the problem I had with the Mission: Impossibles - too many big setpieces which don't really seem connected to one another but it somehow comes together well enough.
  14. More than one reply in the comments saying he seems like a supportive dad picking you up when you're down. He also seems to have had a haircut since he left Celtic.
  15. Borzois are actually the best dogs. Probably. I don't know, it's not me in the video:
  16. I've actually started seeing people - individual and media references - referring to this website as "X" Absolute fucking gimps, to a man.
  17. With only three (Premiership) games to cover today it really laid bare just how contrived this programme is nowadays. First 30 minutes are about Rangers and their new signings. Then we hear from Michael. Then Tom English (a stupid person's idea of a smart person) and Michael Stewart (a smart person's idea of a stupid person) have their pretend misunderstanding about Hearts which morphs into an argument. I think the Ross County/Saint Johnstone game got a mention, I'm not sure if that was before it started or not. Then when it hits 3pm we go around the Championship games and they're introduced by their reporters. Then they're back to talking about Rangers and, ironically, how all of their new forwards look the same kind of player. I know why it's all about the Old Firm. I don't know how else everyone here listens to Sportsound, but I use the live page on the BBC website (itself actually impossible to find directly from the Football homepage at 2:10pm) which also tells you how many people are viewing the page at any one time. The numbers all throughout today's game were only in the thousands. The audience figures for this aren't large enough to warrant them covering anything but the most popular topics and, sadly, that's Celtic and Rangers. That's not how a publicly funded broadcaster should work, but presumably it's what they have to do with the budget they have.
  18. Liverpool's bid for Caicedo off apparently. I've seen this story before, at least in reverse: Rangers say they have rejected a mystery £9m bid for Nikica Jelavic - BBC Sport Oh, I hadn't even seen this bit. Good luck Hertz fans, this man is your manager associate coach
  19. I might start red dotting people when they post about content without posting the content itself.
