chomp my root

Has anybody established Dr. Who's credentials, he gets more coverage than that Dr. Christian who just comes across as a smug p***k. At least he seems a real Doctor and probably quite willing to look at my leaky tadger.

No, I asked her to think about it, what continent do Everton play in and another couple of hints didn't help. To be fair, I was going to watch it on my laptop but she put it on the TV so I shouldn't grumble.

Just been asked why Everton are playing an American team (Atalanta if you're on catch up).

Its not what it was admittedly but it gives the other lot something to get all agitated about.

Give Deadwood a go, Ian McShane steals the show and it revitalised his career.

Oh they're real alright, I've got a mate who's absolutely romping.

I'm intrigued now, was it worse than Deadwood ?

How did it go ? We need to know ! Nice one.

Tru dat bro, tru dat.

Try going for the wrong one and she'll soon develop strong views.

Shit, I didn't know it was a test, I'd have swotted up a bit.

Never mind the corners, that the 'flat earth' society has members from the 'globe' is enough.

Really enjoyed it until towards the end, I've still to watch the second half of the last season. I really need to though, just for 'closure'. Its one of those that I will watch pretty much back to back again though. That's a great way to watch a series/box set.

Not sure that's the case but I really can't be arsed to trawl the internet to back the point but my wife who works in cancer research reckons there's something there, good enough for me. I can't claim the same level of wisdom on the sugar/ADHD but I see a difference in a friends kid now that he's had his sugar intake reduced. People believe what they want to believe and justify it, we can all take our pick on our various logics, Gods will being a prime example.

There is research to suggest that artificial sweeteners are linked to an increase in cancer and that the increase in diagnosis of ADHD is linked to the rise in kids eating more sweets/'full fat' drinks, I don't know if they fall under the conspiracy umbrella, unless I've maybe got the bug, best don the tin foil, just in case.

....and so it begins......

Considering how much we all really really don't like nazis (amongst others), we've given them a fair bit of um, debate. In fact we need another 'noble' cause for some on here to get their teeth into. Have we done fox hunting yet ?????

While not an uber fan I like Pratchett's world and world view. Its a bit more 'gentle' than the whole flat earth pish.

It really is as simple as I could bore with visual horizons and radio waves but much easier to go with Father Ted.

Not likely to happen now, I keep a very well stocked drinks (lets call it a) cabinet but back in the day if I didn't have lager or wine in the house I'd mump and moan and not drink. I've never been a spirits fan although there would always be the odd half bottles that mates had left and I had a bottle of mead that I couldn't shift for love or money. While I'd hardly call myself a purist, I know what I don't like, easier to keep well stocked. Pubwise, I've been known to slum it and drink Fosters/Carlsberg, I'm a bad man.

Course its flat. horizons are a trick by 'da man' to make us think its round.

Nah, his 'playing' with Rick and Daryl suggest a bit of a God complex, that and the Harem. I originally put it down to cheap to make TV and the almost incestuous way that some TV goes, its all about the main characters and the rest is window dressing. To be honest, I reckon this is the case. The Negan character just doesn't work for me this far into a disaster and I can't shake it. Its a bit weird discussing the flaws in a programme about the zombie apocalypse but I could forgive all the earlier flaws (both in the decisions the characters made and the annoying characters etc) but Negan was the one that tipped me over the edge and got me raging about the stuff I'd forgiven, stuff like the way that they've tried to make all the 'tribes' different recently, the 'swamp wifies', the 'garbage folk', feckin Ezekiel's skateboard armoured bunch. It just seems to be trying too hard in some respects, I know quite a few who have just stopped watching it, I'm maybe too brand loyal with my TV watching, last night was the best of the season so far though.

Its been a steady decline since the introduction of Negan for me. He's the wrong baddy this far into the zombie apocalypse, those that will have survived this long wouldn't be cowed so easily, at least not all of them. Maybe just after it started folk might be desperate enough to let a nutjob despot take charge but as things got established he would get the heave. I can't help but think its the wrong actor too, just not physically intimidating enough. Now while I've given this wayyy to much thought, I can't shake it. At least episode 5 tries to explain Negan a bit, best of the season so far but I'm more 'hanging in there' than loving it now. Pity, I used to love it even though its not a genre I would go for.

I know what you mean, I've not drank it for close on 30 years, used to drink it so my pals knew how tough I was because it was fecking vile.
