  1. Not quite sure what your point is here but i really want to know how they've classified tomatoes, amongst other things.
  2. He can't go capping our players for being good when he's got the OF to rim
  3. OOOOOOJJJJJJJJJJJOOOOOOOOOOOOO! he can score Assist for Deano- up you, haterz
  4. A well punctuated and grammatically sound paragraph will cause me a moment of mild pleasure. That or a deft and imaginative insult.
  5. The Town (2010) Written, directed by and Starring Ben Affleck. The first 20 minutes was shit enough for me to turn it off, and i watched all of Godzilla v Kong.
  6. I've not read any Ballard. Might check it out.
  7. High-rise (2016) Tom Hiddleston in a a dystopian 1970s tower block. Something sinister seems to be going on. Or he might be going nuts. Or maybe both. Good looking film with lots of good bits, memorable scenes but not a lot of memorable dialogue. There's an obvious metaphor which is way overcooked. Starts off really well but the middle part is a complete muddle. Starts making sense for the end but the damage was done. Had the components to be much better, 5/10.
  8. Kent has changed since you were a kid. It's a lorry park now.
  9. This had me puzzled for a minute wondering how you're supposed to get out. I see now.
  10. From an embra rag: Aberdeen manager Stephen Glass admits his transfer plans could change quickly if Andy Considine and Ryan Hedges are ruled out for long spells. "We were always looking to strengthen anyway," said Glass Sounds like we maybe weren’t after the cb and attacker we obviously needed? And the least surprising news of the year award goes to........ Mikey Devlin is still some way off a comeback after suffering a setback in his recovery from an ankle injury.
  11. Free Fire (2016) Very silly (not sure how intentional) heistish movie. Like Reservoir Dogs meets Die Hard but no where nearbas good as that sounds. Thin idea and unsurprising plot, but well executed. Not an ounce of fat on it. The characters are quite caricaturish but the quality of the acting and the pace makes them work. The South African lad out of District 9 is great again. The Seventies styling looks great, feels authentic and makes it feel abit like a Seventies film, which is a good thing. Overall very entertaining but just too silly. 6/10.
  12. The Picts, a history, by Tim Clarkson. This is supposed to be a narrative history overview of 600 years of the Picts. The author never really commits to the narrative form though, so it ends up as more of a chronological overview of the sources with some evaluation of their reliability. I was quite glad he did that- it wasn't a hugely gripping story but i feel like i got a lot of information. It's not an exhaustive and detailed survey though, still readable if a bit on the dry side. Because of the sources, it's very focused on royalty and battles. There's little about who the Picts were and how they lived. Maybe we just don't know and need to do more digging. There's also a good bit covered about other early mediaeval people in what's now Scotland and nearby, but only to the extent they interacted with the Picts. I would recommend this if you want to know stuff but not if you want entertainment.
  13. I thought your post was the polar opposite of ignorant.
  14. Agree with the sentiment but can't agree that all incels must have or have had a mental illness. Clearly they're not in a great place but there's a whole spectrum of behavioural issues and unhealthy ways of thinking that wouldn't count as mental illness. At least some mental health issues probably for the majority but not necessarily mental illness.
  15. Do you need a serious disability or would a minor astigmatism qualify? My mate's minor astigmatism.
  16. I'd never heard of twin primes before but have now looked them up. One more thing to worry about.
  17. Debt Urgently needing a shite Odd numbers, especially primes. Trying to get somewhere on time with the wife.
  18. I didn't change what you said. I like that some guys on horseback with a couple of 4x4s and some victorian rifles could have overcome in a month a guerilla force that the US military machine took years to overcome. It's almost like you don't appreciate the nature and distribution of power in the country. I've said that America was justified in going to war, just that i think they were over keen for the wrong reasons. If you think that's an edgy position then you are very sheltered.
