Renton

I went to the Manchester leg of the Rollercoaster tour, the Apollo I think. At the time I was a Rick like character (hard to believe, I know) doing ENTS at Liverpool University so saw dozens of bands, at least 3 a week. I do remember going to the post gig party for Blur and chatting briefly to Albarn who I thought was one handsome devil. Don't remember their music at all from then though. I can get away with some of Albarn's stuff today and actually really like the Good, the Bad, and the Queen. Merryland was a great album, captured Brexit Britain perfectly. They toured some tiny gigs around here but alas I couldn't get a ticket.

My point stands.

What the fuck is this shit? Sunak is a complete embarrassment.

That was like shitting yourself at a dinner party but for it to be okay because the host dramatically has a heart attack and face plants the trifle before dying. All most people and the press remember is the fight between Dyer and Bowyer later in the same match.

I have no recollection of this. That is taking shithousing to another level, beyond the wildest dreams of Murphy or a Lascelles. Also, what a player Cabaye was for us.

Hard to disagree on most of that. Britpop wasn't a musical movement. No way would I lump Suede as Britpop and they were supposed to be the founders of it. Pulp ditto, as he points out. Don't know how you could have a "Battle of the Bands" between Blur and Oasis when they are nothing like of each other and both shit, especially the latter imo. Why weren't the Stone Roses Brit Pop, why weren't Radiohead? Manics? It's a load of manufactured bollocks. That said, as you allude to, it doesn't stope the feeling the 90s had its own ziegiest and music was part of that, fondly remembered, the best days of my life, as is the case for most people (meaning their 20s). We also had Keegan and NUFC, the fall of Thatcher, genuine renewal in Newcastle, fall of Berlin wall (just before), optimism. Also that said, music journalists, like critics of films or food, sports writers, or anything else, fuck me off sometimes. Easy to snipe behind the pen but what the fuck have they actually done? Jo Wylie may have contributed zilch, but has this Neil Kurkani either?

c) Don't browse for butt plugs on a work computer.

Did this really happen? Reminds me of that Pornhub app, for those that haven't seen it (not NSFW).

FFS mate, doing your Mod job for you now. I reckon I should get your job.

Not when you get E. Coli close, no.

Who? Edit: Oops, I forgot, sorry troops, welcome back and feel free to contribute. 👍

You have to hand it to the persistence of these weird needy bastards. I strongly suspect not a single local person will turn up to this "inaugural tournament". .

Fucking hell man, stop it. That makes me feel more physically sick than a close up of runny shite.

Unelected PM with a foreign secretrary in the House of Lords!

"Chemtrails" btw. Where the hell is Parky when you need him. Here's a photo of the dastardly RAF in WW2 not going out to bomb Fritz, no, but even then spraying us with chemical for <insert reason here>.

Aye, thicker than whale spunk. Maybe if she saved money on her blue tick and actually worked instead of doing all this "research" and posting shit on the internet she could afford to look after her kids properly. Christ, imagine being married to her?

She has four kids. Her husband earns 75k a year (that's 53k after tax) but she sends 2 of the kids (fuck knows about the other 2) to a private school for 15k each a year. So she spends more than half her husband's salary on private schools? What about her mortgage? This is clearly unsustainable, whatever VAT LAbour are going to add. Spare me the fucking boo hoos and move house to somewhere with better state education if the local schools aren't good enough for you. The following paragraph where she bemoans her neighbours spending all their money on booze, takeaways and lottery tickets. Any residual empathy I might have had for her is gone. Fuck off you welly fannied Karen.

Not to mention was it just a few months ago they were fewming for not getting selected for the Euro bid?

This amuses me. Their seats hav turned pink again. Not sure the frat boy will be able to get away with the same grift again getting the fans to do it for a Kingsfood hotdog in a burger bun.

Fish life hack If you're using your enema syringe, make sure you give it a good wash out first. 👍

It's a genuine treatment option. I remember it from yonks ago when I wrote NHS guidelines on impacted ear wax. Can't remember the efficacy data off hand though! Here is the advice:

Considered ear candles?

Is this a DIY thing? I don't think I've ever had it done before but also think my hearing is pretty much fine.

We can rebuild him. We have the technology. Ahh fuck man.

Too late.
