  1. I watched Up a couple of weeks ago and towards the end when some of the dogs fall of a cliff (or out of their planes? Can't remember for sure which) they have the scream in there. It made me lol.
  2. BBC have a different list of pots The pots on Yahoo Sports are- Pot 1: South Africa, Brazil, Spain, the Netherlands, Italy, Germany, Argentina and England Pot 2: USA, Mexico, Honduras, Australia, Japan, Korea DPR, Korea Republic, and New Zealand Pot 3: Algeria, Cameroon, Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, Nigeria, Chile, Paraguay, and Uruguay Pot 4: Denmark, France, Greece, Portugal, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia and Switzerland Are the BBC pots different from the ones you and I have posted? EDIT: Wow, Argentina is a seeded team? Really?
  3. Jay Demerit on our backline would make me happy...
  4. Well, as long as... 1) CCC teams are so far below PL teams in terms of pace and just overall quality 2) We're stuck with TFC Ashley as the owner There isn't a whole lot we can really do about it. Obviously I haven't been watching as long as you lot, but probably the biggest difference I see between this year's squad and last year's is attitude. Seems like last season we were out of the game long before we'd actually lost- heads down and all that. I can't remember how many times I'd see our players half-heartedly go after a loose ball or start to let up while going after a ball only to be beaten to it by an opposing player. This year, it seems as though (at least in the matches I've seen) we play for the full 90. Truth is, this team isn't as talented quality-wise than last seasons, but a lot of the reason we went down was the team not playing. I saw a couple of our matches on replay and if you watch the team that tied Man United in the first game of 08-09 or tied Chelsea in the match last November then watch any of those games late in the season there you don't believe it's the same team. To a certain extent, it's not (no Shay, etc.), but the vast majority of the team just doesn't seem to give a fuck at all those last 5 or 10 games. We definitely could have stayed up last season had the XI wanted to be arsed to do it. Will we be a top 4 squad with this lineup assuming the current trend continues and we get promoted? Course not. But honestly though, warts and all, how much worse is this team than Bolton or Wigan or Blackburn or any of the other definitely NOT top 4 sides? FFS, Sunderland and Stoke are in the top half! Birmingham is 11 and Burnley 12th- is our side really much worse than those clubs?
  5. Some people seem REALLY scared that they are on the verge of turning gay so won't take risks like carrying stuff in a bag or using an umbrella to keep them dry Of course, keep in mind it rains just a little bit more over there than it does here. Generally speaking, I'm probably already wearing a jacket if it's raining, so I don't really get soaked except for my head/ hair, so carrying an umbrella, ella, ella, is a bit much. Additionally, it's the rare occasion I'm actually walking in the rain for an extended (read more than 5 minutes) period of time. My longest walk outside on an average day is from the parking lot to the plant which is probably 400 yards or so.
  6. Jackets are ok, but umbrellas are for pussies. The only thing acceptable for a man to do when it's raining is to hold a folder newspaper over their head, and that's only on the menu if it's like a hurricane. Running is also unacceptable. Bear Grylls, is that you? I once saw that dude squeeze water out of an elephant turd. I'm not even 10% the man Bear Grylls is.
  7. I was kinda half-way there throughout most of the picture, but the ending pushed it into - wow, that was good territory for sure. I watched Bruno last night. Holy. Shit. Predictably, the most offensive part of the movie wasn't even mentioned over by the media over here- it had nothing to do with gays. It had everything to do with people being interviewed for a photo shoot with kids.
  8. If you're asking whether it exists at all, it does. "Regular occurrence" is a different matter. "regular occurrence" exactly. The pornmakers of today would have us believe that it is infact proper etiquette to finish a shag these days with a facial enhancement. I trust this is not the case and the popular choice is still the cigarette or instant sleep. Well, like you said though, pornmakers would have us believe that if I'm out of cash when the pizza guy arrives, I should just fuck him instead (which is stupid because I'm probably hungry- hello! I ordered a pizza).
  9. I'm not surprised. It sounded like bullshit. I'll tell you what, I'll do what you do under similar circumstances then and assume it's a lie. Where have I said it is a bigger sport than the major ones in Australia? You said no one cares about football in Australia and my experience was quite different to that. Well some people will care obviously even in America some people care it's not a major sport in Australia, the same as it isn't and never will be in America, regardless how many under 9's play it. Never's a long time, man. Just in my lifetime it's gone from something you never saw outside of a late-show re-run of Victory to it's own network(s). Sure, it'll be a long time before it comes close to de-throning baseball, the other football, and basketball, but there's a hell of a lot of immigrants in this country with more arriving all the time, and they don't suddenly become fans of the other football. Put it this way- I live in the armpit of this country and I saw a guy wearing a Chivas jersey at Wal-Mart the other night. I've been out drinking and seen Champions League matches being shown. Even mocked a guy wearing an Arsenal jersey whilst out drinking one night. I'm not talking about in L.A., Chicago, or New York- I'm talking about little old, redneck Evansville, Indiana.
  10. I'd take it as a draw. We'd beat them like a drum.
  11. Dude, it's the 100 best films from the last decade. That being said, it's still a strange list. Bad Santa? I mean, I thought it was hilarious, but one of the top movies of the decade? Really?
  12. Somebody please tell me that's not real...
  13. My car broke down on me today. Funny story. So I'm on my way to work today and as I'm driving to the interstate highway (read as 70 mph speed limit) I take to get to work, I start getting this really heavy vibration from the front passenger side of the car. I get on the interstate for about the first 20 minutes of my commute, but before I'm to where I get off on highway 41 (lower speed, generally around 60 mph), the vibration is so bad it sounds like I'm driving a helicopter. I finally decide I'm probably doing some real damage, so I call my boss and turn around. I get to where I'm just off the interstate and driving towards the house and the shaking and vibrating is so bad, I finally just pull over and start walking. 45 minutes later, I'm back at the house calling the mechanic shop and a tow truck. Mechanic dude thinks it could be a broken axle or ball joint and tells me he'll give me a free estimate because the cougar is 10 years old and it probably isn't worth putting a new axle in or whatever. I get off the phone and drive Breea's car back to the cougar to meet up with the tow truck guy. So I meet up with the tow truck dude and he's all, "Ïs it driveable?" I'm all, "I don't know man, it was getting really rough there towards the end. I only live about 3 or 4 miles from here and didn't think I'd get it home if that tells you anything." He's like not wanting to chain it up the ramp so he tries to drive it. He drives it forward about three feet and we hear a loud noise and he says, "Yep, I think your ball joint just broke." We walk around the side of the car and the wheel is like all cocked to the side, not straight up and down like it should be. The tow truck guy says, "Yeah, see? Your ball joint just broke." I noticed something else though- there's a lug nut about 3 feet away from the wheel, which makes me say, "No dude, the wheel just came off." Two of the wheel studs were completely sheared off which made the remaining lug nuts strip out completely, which lead to the wheel coming off entirely. Know the punchline to this joke? It's been coming from a mile away... I just had new front tires put on about a month ago. Apparently the tire shop didn't put the wrench to the lug nuts after they were done. Had I not turned around and then finally pulled off the road when I did, that wheel would've come off while I was driving. I know you've heard stories of people getting oil changes and the shop forgets to put new oil in and shit like that, but for reals- next time you get your tires changed, make sure they tighten your shit back up. Losing a wheel at 70 mph wouldn't have been a fucking joke, man.
  14. I'm not surprised when people outside the States don't know who he is. He's just not that big a deal. He's decent, but I often wonder how the US passes up on some of the UK talent and hails this guy as some kind of god. PS Tommy Tiernan I just figured since he's basically on the level of Pryor or Steve Martin when it comes to recognition you guys would have heard of him over there.
  15. Its amazing how some things pass you by in life. Just watched the Religion one of this and thought it was great. Never heard of the guy but going to watch some more. Cheers for that. Never heard of George Carlin? Seriously? There's also this band, I think they're from Liverpool... The Bootles? The Battles? Hang on, it'll come to me...

  17. I'm sure Rock and Chappelle have been mentioned elsewhere in this thread, but I always thought Mitch Hedberg was hilarious (was really bummed out when he died). I've heard one of David Cross' (Tobias Funke, the analrapist from Arrested Development) albums and he had a hilarious routine about edible gold on the album I had. Came out around 2003 or 2004 probably- a lot of Iraq War/ Bush material. Additionally, I think I'm one of the few people who finds Artie Lange funny on Stern, but not as a stand-up. Same goes for Gilbert Gotfried- never really thought this stand-up was funny, but on Stern? Christ, the man's a genius.
  18. Rob W? Oh, wait... Did he ever tell you about the time he was debating the feudal system with a peasant and he hit him with his pitchfork? A howl! Huzzah!
  19. Pixies were a big Nirvana influence too as I recall. The whole quiet verses, loud ass chorus deal. The Melvins as well maybe? Seems like Kurt cited them in some interviews... EDIT: Lols on the Melvins...
  20. Just had a root around the internet and found some wholly disturbing/depressing images of Calvin when he's grown up. Never mind. What to watch? Anyone watching True Blood at the moment? It's shite like. True Blood is cool, man. Whatchutalkinabout?
  21. You know what's old but still hilarious? Tourette's Guy
  22. I just watched the first two episodes of AMC's remake/ redux of The Prisoner. I never saw the originals, but am aware they're very much a cult classic and highly regarded. That being said, this new version was very, very well done. Ian McKellen is scary as 2 and Jim Caviezel (sp?) is good as 6. Check it out if you get a chance.
  23. I'd be down for up to $100 if you're taking money from other countries via PayPal.
  24. http://sports.yahoo.com/sow/news;_ylt=An_Z...p&type=lgns “This is in no way indicative of my character or the soccer player I am,” Lambert said in her apology. “I am sorry to my coaches and teammates for any and all damages I have brought upon them. I am especially sorry to BYU and the BYU women’s soccer players that were personally affected by my actions.” Yeah right. How'd you like to be the HR rep that ends up on the wrong side of a vacation denial letter with this broad in a few years.
  25. And we love you too, C. In a manly, totally un-hom way of course. But WHAT THE FUCK does your name mean ??? It's my old Quake handle. Cid is my nickname from high school, MCDP was our team or clan or whatever you want to call it.
