  1. Alarm clocks. They go off at the start of a song, or just as the DJ is announcing the time.
  2. But soon-a come-a day, gonna be a big-a star Den I make-a T.V. shows and-a movies Get-a myself a new car but still I be myself I don't want-a to change a t'ing Still a-dance and a-sing I think-a about-a mama, she used to say
  3. @sophia having a wobble in the minimum alcohol pricing thread. Accusations of misogyny....
  4. The wife has been watching Good Girls on Netflix. You can see the pitch to the network. "Imagine Breaking Bad...with moms" ...except it is utter shite. Lots of Christina Hendricks though, which more than makes up for the fact it is awful.
  5. Cannot wait for the Biden v Trump debate. Two sundowners not even sure why they are there. Trump thinking Biden is Obama. Biden thinking he is JFK.
  6. It's getting the blame alright. You can see the early 2020 dip in the graph at the top. I don't believe deaths actually dropped, just that hospitals stopped admitting people and also attributed deaths to the virus.
  7. My ding-a-ling, my ding-a-ling, I want you to play with my ding-a-ling! My ding-a-ling, my ding-a-ling, I want you to play with my ding-a-ling! Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful!
  8. Have a look at my post from March 21st 2023. It goes into a detailed breakdown of the lancet article. Anyway, as a reminder here is the graphs from that article. Show me the big drop from 2018 please.
  9. Kid A was such a crushing disappointment when it came out. Utter pish.
  10. If we get independence, this is my choice. No republic, thanks.
  11. Read the actual research, not the BBC one-line summary. Since MUP came in, alcohol related deaths have increased in Scotland. Ignorjng the inflation costs etc, the policy has failed on its own terms. The hardcore alcoholics will miss food, stop heating and so on to keep drinking. Overall consumption (ie social drinking) is down a bit. So...where does the headljne "13% fewer deaths" line come from? Simple. Since MUP, deaths due to alcohol in North East England rise also, and at a slightly faster rate than in Scotland. That's it. It was all extrapolated from that one comparison.
  12. In various Star Treks. President of the Federation in Star Trek VI.
  13. So now I'm praying for the end of time To hurry up and arrive 'Cause if I gotta spend another minute with you I don't think that I can really survive I'll never break my promise or forget my vow But God only knows what I can do right now
  14. The big issue though was that she was there. At the start of his question, Starmer welcomed her to the house.. Sunak knew she was there...and still said it. Whatever your views on trans people, making a cheap dig in front of a woman whose kid was murdered, and her being trans was the main factor, was utterly despicable.
  15. the main problem is that she cannot drive to Aldi for me.
