If I ran a marathon (highly unlikely) I wouldn't be in a fit state to drive home. Even walking up Fleshmarket Close from the station gives me the fear. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't do it myself but I can understand adults getting enjoyment from playing video games. What I can't get my head round is people watching adults playing video games. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottsdad Posted May 29, 2023 Share Posted May 29, 2023 Sitting on the bog, snapping off a yard of spine and the house phone goes. Obviously I can't answer. They leave no message. Then the mobile phone goes - presumably the same people. I can't answer that as I'm not a deviant who takes his phone into the bog. Eventually I get out and find out that the council have phoned me. I call the number back and it's an automated message saying they tried to get through to me but couldn't. Nothing else. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must admit I was a bit unsighted on the whole twitch thing but started getting into it after watching Limmy clips and then unrelated to that the tv show - Players (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Players_(2022_TV_series)#:~:text=Players is an American mockumentary,16%2C 2022%2C on Paramount%2B.). And beyond a retro Gameboy that I dust off every fee few months, I don't play any games or own a console : ) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of them probably did the 5km walk with their kids but will still wear the same free t-shirt to pretend they ran the real thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anne Marie (sorry if misspelled, I'm not that aware of her) was doing the usual promo interview on Forth1 the other day, she was doing the usual patronising gush about how much she loves Scotland and our accents. Well done to the dj who had the balls to immediately ask "How come you have no Scottish dates on the tour, then?" Much bluster from AM about "Oh don't I? I didn't realise. I don't arrange the small details actually" etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
