Is she just on the con now? Her politics are awful but she was never a Trumpist type.

SA could put their bench backs in the scrum and still melt the Welsh pack

Is World War 3 starting again then. Must be the 5th or 6th World War 3 in the past two decades, I'm starting to think a lot of people are just bored and want it to happen.

Anywho fudge both these governments, wish they could wipe eachother out without harming civilians, absoluite wit kant.

AND-y

Barclay is great, I also think Shane Williams is better than one would expect from a Welsh perspective. Roberts is pretty blah. Warburton is alright but harps on about his preferred topics/tactics too much.

AND-y

I can't think of one British commentator I like. The English rah rah nice but dim lot like Harrison I suppose, like excitable homoerotic puppies.

AND-y

When did Atalanta become any good? Have they been sugar daddied or are they a feel good story?

AND-y

@LandofTurk feel free to broaden discusson beyond that era, i've got through a few of them already!

AND-y

If Japan won't fudge they'l'l have to import in order to keep up current society? Better get some gov incentives to have kids going if they want to remain a borderline ethno state

Italy were the highlight of the tournament for me, well deserved.

AND-y

:lol: :lol: :lol: Sheffield United have conceded 206 shots in 2024 so far. Man United have conceded 225 shots. That team is a joke. It is terrible. Trash. Pathetic! It is understated how bad they are. Cancerous players as well like Rashford and Bruno. Open heart surgery. Thats the thing. Fergies te...

I expect all the musos here alreaedy know The Decemberists - Mariners Revenge Song https://youtu.be/iPAr7kL-mmg?si=-NTJ1PF26lxWJywc

Any other good storytelling songs?

So all in all I think someone as wealthy as J K Rowling will be just fine tweeting whatever the hell they like

AND-y

Rugby is mental in that it just stops for this mini game of victorian freak show strong man competition and I am all for it. I don't want that depowered

I agree with others that the time wasted sucks though.

AND-y

What does a reasonable person believe though? Are you saying that they have potentially draconian powers but there is no culture or capacity to use them or that they just don't have these powers? Genuinely don't know, no attempted gotchas. I mean ultimately this is a power grab and should be treated...

I love war and westerns of this era. Seen a bunch. You just have to get used to the depiction of 'indians' as primitive and dim. Its a downward spiral on cultivating racism. Here are a few westerns. I've started with the must-see classics then gone by actor rather than director. And I'm purposefull...

AND-y

Yeah if you're dumping fatties we really need to lose a couple players a team, 15 per side is surely too much with 30 fit and fast players

I think there is not a huge fuss about scrum times because players and refs like the long breather

AND-y

I think J K Rowling is mental but agree people should be very suspicious of this stuff.

AND-y

I don't know how anyone in this day and age could watch films depicting the systematic oppression of native Americans, or showing white men fighting over stolen land. Disgraceful. I recommended AND-y watch Soldier Blue. Made in 1970 it pulled no punches in that space. Oh no is it going to make me t...

It's obviously mythology, I don't think anyone is watching them as historical education

AND-y

You have to watch Tombstone. Don’t argue, just trust me. Then the Hateful Eight. Oh Tombstone is the town the stereotypical western dust hole is based on right? No, it was typical of the western frontier towns as trains saw the expansion of commerce and populace. It is better-known for being the sc...

Want to get into this genre, I guess it's around the 50s and 60s? I know next to little about them other than they were so often background noise when I was younger? What are some classics that everyone should see at least once? Yes, I realise I could google this easily, but we all need to try keep...

Yeah I think both of these individuals lost any integrity they might have had like a decade ago

Isn't Japan basically hanging on by a thread with its pop dems and work culture?

AND-y

I wonder if today is April 1st.. Oh, I didn't feel it was ridiculous enough for that. Targetting a mans wife as part of a joke is pretty bad form. If a boxer wins a fight who walks away with the winning cheque? his wife. It happens in a lot of sports and households but yeah you're an April fool but...

I'd have thought a stint in punditry ala Nige would be most lucrative and easier on body.

Ouch, poor ol Barnesy

AND-y

He was playing like an NFL player in the last 6N anyway, just sticking to his role, not looking for work or making opportunities.

AND-y

It’s an interesting dilemma, eh? Where does one choose to go when they come across an unexpected windfall? I’m married, so wouldn’t have a choice, but it’s nice to daydream…. tbh, both you and euge are worrying me. You're dragging yourself and nearest & dearest to a place of strange accents, strang...

But the whole thing with Kerouac was that he did his road trip out in the country on rural roads. If you’re trying to recreate a Kerouac experience in London or Manchester or on the M1, you’re doing it wrong. My brother in law used to bump into Lawrence Ferlingetti, who published a lot of the Beats...

AND-y

I dunno man, most of me is all for super eco towns (provided they work as intended) but isn't there a small part of everyone that just wants to go all Jack Kerouac every now and then?

AND-y

Yeah Wrexham town is a bit shit holey.

AND-y

Wait, Ospreys are downgrading to a club ground? Jesus, the state of the game here

AND-y

I live in the countryside and love going on long drives and road trips. I think neither of you have shown anything but paranoia toward a minor suggestion. The biggest danger is a waste of money.

AND-y

I do think Everton are doing quite well considering the players they have. To be out of the relegation zone despite the 10 point deduction is pretty good.

AND-y

I’m with Bimbo. Cheering for such a sacrifice for such a meagre returns is laughable. The cynic in me suspects that this has more to do with a local government that cares far more about cutting infrastructure spend than it does on the climate. I can’t help but wonder how far our societies may have ...

AND-y

Well people who like 5 guys and the owners of 5 guys for a start. But 5 Guys is in the same place and you can still go get it?? Do you think anything should be done to encourage town centre business over out of town retail park at all out of curiosity? Well thing is by financial penalty / time pena...

AND-y

Also, don't eat 5 Guys. It's overpriced and underwhelming in size and quality.
