So you are an unionist poppy shagger shagger then?
I missed the second 'shagger' the first time round. I'm losing my touch, clearly spending too much time around Protestants/Brits [delete according to what will outrage the usual suspects the most].

I don't know. Is it contagious?

Not sure. This might be in the same ballpark as thinking it’s ok to label others a fatso, if your wife’s behind “does look big in this” (which I’m sure it doesn’t).
A wise and just response.

They could, but I’d be checking how habitable your friend’s garden shed is first.
If they don't have an outbuilding to sleep in, I’d suggest you recommend they stick to less contentious pet names.
I'm not proposing calling HER a unionist poppy shagger. She knows I think that. I'm asking whether I can use the insult on others without being labelled sectarian because I have a unionist poppy shagger wife.

Did that ever get an airing in the ground?

Can you call someone a unionist poppy shagger if you're married to a unionist poppy shagger? Asking for a friend?

I've managed to get my son interested in board games. We've had some epic games of Pandemic, X-Wing and Memoir 44. The little git has the luck of the devil. If he needs four crits/tanks, he'll roll four crits/tanks. Unfortunately I can't get my wife hooked. She has always enjoyed any games we've played with her - I got Wingspan with her specifically in mind - but she would rather be doing something else with her time.

Dave touched on it recently and it got a full airing in this podcast: what defines the Klopp era is the home form. My record in games I've been at under Klopp is P35 W28 D7 L0 F100 A27. That doesn't tell the whole story though. Only once did Liverpool take the lead and fail to win, and that was the 5-5 draw with Arsenal in the League Cup that was won on penalties. Most incredibly though, they've gone behind 13 times in those games. 13! The consensus yesterday was that the Man City-Arsenal game was dogshit viewing, Mr Freedom-For-Catalonia-Slavery-For-Abu-Dhabi and his (footballing) protege stinking the place out with their forensic view of the game. Chris seemed a little awkward about saying it has been a privilege to get to see so many games with Klopp as the manager. I'm quite unabashed about it. It's been such a thrill, and when things go to shit (relatively speaking) in the next few years, I'm determined that I'll view this period as a case of 'tis better to have loved and lost' than marinating in misery.

I'll add that if he does prefer Bayern then he's not the man for us anyway because he'd be taking the easy option and that would tell me he's not the man I thought he was. This job is perfect for someone with the ambition and balls to want to take it on. If Xabi doesn't take it this summer, he should never be offered it again.
It looks like he is the man you thought he was. Unfortunately. that's worked against Liverpool.

It would get cancelled for being boring. Especially the start. It takes 9 chapters around 6 hours of audiobook just to get to Brie. It's 2:45 mins of audiobook from the moment Frodo wakes in Rivendell to the party leaving.
Early on we get a POV from a fox. The way the book evolved in the writing is fascinating in itself.

My brother put it very well: if he chooses Liverpool, he's Klopp. If he chooses Bayern, he's Guardiola.

I managed to feel a real pang of sorrow when I saw her on the front page of my father-in-law's Express this morning as it brought back memories of another time when she had to put on a show for the cameras when she was in no fit state for it. She gave birth to her first child a few weeks after my wife had our son - both called George, something that pleases my royalist wife no end as she can good-humouredly claim that they were copying us; simple pleasures - and the performance she had to put on for 'her public' was grotesque. She looked like death warmed up, and the thought that anyone might have put my wife through such an ordeal in her condition at the time made my blood boil. But this is the Faustian pact the British monarchy has made with the British press, and I compare the latter to Mephistopheles in the strongest way possible. They, to quote Stanley Baldwin, exercise "power without responsibility - the prerogative of the harlot throughout the ages". It's easy to imagine she and her family agonising over how much to put into the public domain about her condition, agonies that are not going to help her recovery from that condition. Well, I hate to break this to you, Kate, but you were never going to get it right, because they are pure fucking evil.

Don't be worrying too much comrade.
The worst that can happen is that they reintroduce internment without trial, a Diplock court just for you and then straight to the Tower.
On the plus side, the whip round on here should get you a great statue and a decent plot in Milltown Cemetery.
So close...

You know, I really enjoyed the enthusiasm of that article and know you're absolutely right to be so enthusiastic. We're just a brilliant attacking team.
But I look at the score again and think, from the vantage point of my 40s, that the game reflects the shitness of football.
Is it not a peculiar kind of arrogance that makes us feel good about tanking Slovenian and Russian teams? Without a single local player in the team?
Don't get me wrong. Fantastic to watch. And yet I miss the days where a draw in Greece was a serious, hard-earned achievement. Or a Scottish or Belgian team might win a European competition.
An evergreen post on the subject of whaling on teams whose resources are a fraction of the resources available to the likes of Liverpool.

My mrs asks me unnecessary questions which then require further unnecessary answers.
If there's, say, a newsreader on telly and nobody else and I say "his hair is terrible".
"Who's hair?"
"His hair. The bloke on the telly. The only bloke on the telly."
If me and the Mrs were in the first ten minutes of independence day and we walked out the house and I said "what the fuck is that!?" She'd say "what the fuck is what?'
"That 11 mile wide alien spaceship".
When watching things on the telly she will ask me questions that have no answer. Last night we were watching Dune in preperation for seeing the second part in the cinema tonight and she asks me how the spice works. Well, it gets into the blood stream and interacts with the dark matter that connects all the atoms in the universe...I don't know, it's bloody magic! On the other hand, we have watched both seasons so far of The Wheel of Time and she hasn't asked a single question. What would I know about it, I've only read all fourteen fucking books.

Remembrance of the disaster was the theme at church yesterday so my son asked what happened. I explained, then he asked what happened to the police officers who presided over it. The look on his face when I said "nothing" was heartbreaking. Even now, innocence is being lost. RIP.
