Cooking them slowly on a low heat is the key imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamthebam Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 I'm quite impressed that my phone's predictive text has the phrase "hadawayandshite" already programmed in without me having to add it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theroadlesstravelled Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 Just thinking about Game of Thrones and how Hodor's name came from him hawding the door. That was fucking terrible story writing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 Someone said it's funny how everyone talked about Game of Thrones all the time then they did such a terrible job of ending it that suddenly nobody did. Quite a good observation I thought.Now that some time has passed, I think I would now assess it that the ending totally soured the whole thing and pretty much consigned what could have been the best television of all time to the bin. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really impressive how they managed to make such a colossal arsefuck of it that the entire world seems to have made an unspoken agreement to collectively wipe it from our memories. Star Wars had a similar attempt at it with The Rise Of Skywalker, but managed to at least have some redeeming features. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're looking for a truly colossally shit ending to something that everyone raved about, try Lost. Although the shit "ending" could probably include about the last four series, to be fair. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still have never finished Lost. I think I started S6 and binned it. I've never really went back to find out what the ending was. I stopped caring. I initially had my doubts about Watchmen when I saw that it was Damon Lindelof that was running it, but thankfully my fears were misplaced. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's taken a lot of flak for Lost and rightly so, but he's clearly learned from his mistakes via Lost. The Leftovers, is my favourite show and if you enjoyed Watchmen, then I can't recommend the three seasons of GOLD enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottmcleanscontacts Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 Have you ever done the exercise where you take your age, and subtract it from your date of birth? Then you think of all the monumental world events that took place in that period of time before you were born. For me, that would everything from 1905 to 1962. Ancient history, right? Then you consider that a child born today, will look at everything that's happened while you've been alive in exactly the same way. The Cold War, man walking on the moon, the introduction of the Internet, 9/11 and the resulting wars, Britain's time in the EU...all ancient history.Interesting. Would be 44-82. Just a few things happened in that time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been hoping that somebody would admit to being older than I am (come on, Jacksgranda) but mine would cover 1896 - 1958. Queen Victoria was still on the throne, FFS! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derry Alli Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 Was in Stobbie getting the haircut (v decent, btw) so nipped into Lidl and the bakery was just putting out the goodies.
