  1. That Trivago ad. "I want x, y & z. Can you show me how?" No. f**k off, you annoying, entitled bitch.
  2. We'll have to fall apart, Morten-style, for him not to get a crack at the third tier. So long as we're competitive, I think he'll be fine. Allan Maitland got three or four seasons despite us looking like headless chickens at times. As far as Bazza's career goes, Ian Murray's practically a saint from getting Dumbarton into mid-table, so full-time clubs would probably start sniffing around if he managed something similar with us. Feeling quite optimistic that we'll give everyone a run for their money, I should add! I reckon he'll do well for us.
  3. Dear Christ. I feel your pain. Not finding the puns funny for once - feel like I've got PTSD from that monstrosity.
  4. It's been us and Cowden at the bottom since we both stayed up last season - I'd be amazed if anyone's thinking otherwise, due to the resource gap between us and the rest. Staying up this season would compete with either club's best achievements. So, I don't think it's worth panicking if our individual players don't quite match up to Livingston (for example), so long as they're working well as a unit. It's just going to be a fun season, I think. Nice to hear that Cowden have improved so much that they wouldn't want some of our best players, however. Looking forward to seeing how we handle playing against a team of such quality.
  5. Dunno mate, maybe life with the Cistercians isn't for you? Maybe try a different order.
  6. I have no idea who this person is. BTW, don't greenie my posts. They'll assume you're an alias and come looking for me. They're like wild animals on here
  7. The Bob De Niro and Juliette Lewis thing made me quite queasy, so Scorsese must have been doing something right.
  8. Jesus, spoilers. Loved that film - there's a nice vein of humour running through it. I thought the CG was pretty decent too. Apparently there's a lot of humour that non-Norwegians wouldn't get. I think Guillermo Del Toro is supposed to be doing an American remake, which I'd guess would be about as pants as the US Wicker Man.
  9. Not for the young 'uns, surely? Must only be about a mile. Plean's a different matter, although I sometimes used to walk back to Stirling from there after the last bus had left. The A9's not a great journey on foot in the dark!
  10. Someone mentioned Fallin earlier - I used to spend a bit of time there, and it seemed a decent enough place to live, especially as Stirling town centre is within walking distance. Bit miserable if you're an auld yin though, I'd have thought. Plean was a different matter - miserable hellhole with constant running neighbourhood battles and weans breaking everything, along with the worst chippy I've ever been in, where they seemed to have cooked everything the day before. I see they've built lots of new housing in the last decade, and it looked a bit nicer last time I passed through. I've lived in both Alloa and Sauchie, and both are nice quiet wee places to live, assuming you're happy to travel through to Stirling or Falkirk for entertainment. Tullibody's a different matter, or was when I spent more time there, ten or fifteen years ago. It's just housing, a pub, and a chippy. Oh, and the Tron Court shopping area, which was entirely derelict when last I saw it, barring three shops. And one of them was an empty hole that someone had parked a few arcade machines in (of the Super Sprint vintage). I'd like to think that Tron Court would be a bustling, vibrant shopping area by now, purely for the local community's sanity.
  11. I find those Kindle adverts terrifying. They seem to be selling the concept of reading rather than the Kindle itself, for the most part.
  12. I just saw this headline: Jeremy Kyle hopeful jailed over slogans. I initially read it as: Jeremy Kyle hopefully jailed over slogans. GAH! Edited for excessive underlining.
  13. Might need to watch the Child's Play films again, haven't seen them in forever. Jennifer Tilly
  14. Rollerball - EXTREEEEEME! Sports enthusiast Chris Klein (the Glee Club doofus from American Pie) enrols in a ultra-camp competitive rollerskating franchise and begins to realise that the organiser (hilariously Russian Jean Reno) is more concerned with profit than safety. Really surprised that this is twelve years old now; didn't miss much by not seeing it the first time around. This film is monumentally bad, and no doubt managed to offend everyone in the countries depicted. The sport itself is ludicrous and overly-complicated, which is impressive when considering there's practically nothing to it. The plot is ridiculous and lazy, and nothing comes across as being in any way believable or entertaining. There's also a long sequence shot in night vision, presumably for budgetary reasons, which features some bizarre comedy sound effects. There's also an odd obsession with scattering name musicians throughout the background of the film, some of whom aren't even heard to perform. Just awful in every way imaginable. On the other hand, Rebecca Romain's tits have never looked better, so...tough call! Hostel - American tourists in Europe are hooked up with a pussy paradise in Slovakia and discover that there's a price to pay for their fun. This is a much better film than you might imagine, and the 'torture porn' label isn't really applicable either; it's generally pretty restrained, especially compared to the grand guignol of the sequel. It's a nicely taut thriller that keeps you guessing for a while about exactly what's going on behind the scenes, and is pretty satisfying from beginning to end. Recommended, if you can stomach the brief occasions where the restraints slip. Also, masses of boobs, if you like that sort of thing
  15. Fucking hell. Easily forgotten, but that girl was quite impressive back in the day.
  16. Especially invigilators that do it all the way through university exams. This actually happened. Fucking raging.
  17. Non-Stop - Liam Neeson is a washed-up air marshall whose plane is hijacked by text message. Drama ensues. I really liked this. Taut thriller in a confined space with Liam kicking ass and taking names - what's not to like? Read some bad reviews, and I think they must have been smoking the pot. The wife claims that this was a better film than Taken, which is practically heresy, but it's certainly not far off. And I'm not just saying that because of my longtime Julianne Moore obsession
  18. People who park across two parking bays as well. An angel sheds a tear every time their cars are accidentally gouged.
  19. Very little, but almost everything is related to me on this site or elsewhere. I'd no idea my username was so unusual
  20. Quality work with the all-consuming retroactive spoiler!
  21. Meh, I took a shot. I'm sure plenty of folk would think of her when they read 'Cathy with the torn fanny'. Did '70s Cathy do a decent job? Always looking to pick up some cleaning tips
  22. Spoliers, FFS! I was SO going to watch that, too
  23. Nae mair Cathy Barry vids while your supposed to be watching the wean, sunshine.
