Heggemony

Doing well to stifle the stiffy there.

I was mashed mate. Wachowski was.....The Matrix trilogy?

Had a fucking blast in 1st year at Trent doing a Gross Out Comedy module. 3 hours a week looking at sub-textual analysis of wanking, erections, shitting etc. The tutor was a fresh faced Kiwi who we soon discovered enjoyed various leisurely exploits associated with university times. In short she enjoyed a good drink and a smoke. Used clips from Me Myself and Irene and There's Something about Mary for our end of module presentation which basically consisted of the funniest bits and some droll textbook bollocks about the subversive. Got a 2:1 for basically getting wasted watching funny Wachowski brothers films and laughing my tits off. Unfortunately the Kiwi tutor despite a filthy smile and naughty nature was an absolute mutt. My mate never was able to forget the night she called his bluff with the Frank and Beans routine.

England has been a thorn in the side to many a club team over the years not least Liverpool. Barnes ruptured Achilles just before Euro 92, Redknapp, Sturridge, Lallana and probably loads more besides. Can't stand the frenzy the press whip up and all the sensationalism. I want our lads to do well but I'd honestly be just as happy if Egypt or Brazil succeeded. I'm not pro or anti England, just meh. The squad is a bit meh. Oh, and Harry Kane is Timmy from South Park.

Ninja like aren't they?

On the odd occasion I go shopping to the supermarket with my wife, she sometimes sends me off to get bits as she can feel the mild irritation I have when she procrastinates over something or other. I'm gone a minute or two and then it's like she's playing hide and seek or has gone into stealth mode. Had enough yesterday and decided just to go and read some magazines and got an earful for not coming to find her.

No. 19 would be the sweeter of the two as it's the monkey on our back in the same way as '26 years and nothing to show for it' was our chant to the Mancs all those years back. As 2005 showed a CL win didn't yield a period of sustained dominance, although we did have some great teams in the period. If we did bag no. 19 and Jurgen sticks around I'd fancy our chances of being at the top table for a good few years to come. I reckon we have 3 seasons left before he goes of his own accord.

Shall we be friends, buddy?

Thanks for the tips. Not had chance to do anything yet but cunting it in the bastard is the preferred option, if it causes me any more than 30 minutes of grief.

Surely the most astute bit of defensive business since Torben Piechnik?

JLloyd Samuel dead in a car crash aged only 37. Only really remember the name, not whether he was any good or not.

Nail on head Vlad. Sorry if anyone didn't find it funny or even worthy of the rant thread. I posted it because it was a genuine occurrence and I know of a good few people near where I live who always say if there's been a crash involving a lorry on the M25 that it's 'probably a Polish driver.' I had a wry smile to myself as I overtook them admittedly pissed off that they were driving like tits. Plenty of them about all nationalities. Anyway I suppose what I've learned from this is that if you have to explain a joke at this length it was probably never funny in the first place..... There is no sarcasm or irony in the .... on this occasion.

I thought the ..... was self-explanatory, I was seeing if anyone would bite.

Lorry drivers pissing in the wind taking three of four lanes of the M25 uphill. Two were Polish, which of course rattled my chain a little more....

So true. Been like this for a few years now and desperate to break the vicious circle.

Used to do 15 miles daily from Waterloo to Old Hall Street. Moved to London 10 years ago and my bike hasn't been used more than twice. Did an 8 mile round trip today through some countryside and it was a hard slog especially the undulating hills but felt good once finished. Had a beer and a cigarette when I got home.

Ha ha. If I had hair and a tache and wore a high-viz I would! Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

For the 2nd year in a row the season isn't petering out into irrelevance. Win today and their tails should be up for Kiev. Then we are in the lap of the footballing Gods. Lose and confidence will be shot and the doubts will resurface. Still confident we'll win today by a respectable margin. Gutted I've got to work this afternoon and miss the game. Hi I'm Ed Winchester.

I had what can only be described as a mini nervous breakdown last September, due to home and work pressures, too much boozing and not enough clean living and exercise. There's a lot more detail I could add but I contemplated suicide on a few occasions, but the fear of the damage I'd leave behind brought me back from the precipice thankfully. My GP couldn't prescribe anti-depressants quick enough but I just disconnected from the world for a few weeks, had some rest and sort of rebooted myself. I'm now living every day to it's fullest whenever I can. Whenever I get down or anything I just remember those around me who depend on me and how much better life can be if you do things with a good heart and don't take yourself or your job too seriously. A work life balance is a hard thing to achieve but for people without a family or community network around them the inside of your mind can be a dark and disturbing place. Hi I'm Ed Winchester.

Spot on. It was the complete antithesis to something Michael Bay or his ilk would come up with. Almost no flag-waving of any kind either. I like Del Toro but I don't get the love-in at all. Hi I'm Ed Winchester.

Sadly you're right mate. Hi I'm Ed Winchester.

Probably watch it at home as don't know too many Reds round my way. If we win though driving up to Liverpool to watch the parade. Any Hertfordshire or N London based Reds fancy a lift give me a PM. If the wife and kids don't want to come too. They're Arsenal so I'm hoping they don't. Hi I'm Ed Winchester.

Cunt didn't even have the decency to wipe his knob on the bedside doily. Hi I'm Ed Winchester.

Tried all this and still same problem. I dislike Microsoft intensely.

Oh shit FF on the GF.
