No, I see now I should have put some dots between 'just' and 'you', ffs. Still looks better than the last 0ne though.

That's good.

Mild curry powder doesn't feel so mild when you rub your eyes within hours of adding it to a meal.

Also, sometimes handwashing doesn't help.

You've used the wrong plural. They look like peni and ball.

Balli.

Of course, Peni's been going it alone since October 2020.

Is this the new thread then?

Anyway, the term "litterbug" is a play on "jitterbug". Although it probably predates the rise of Wham!

[Dex Sawash]

Was thinking about litterbug the other day and how little power it carries as a term. I guess when just pitching everything on the ground started to become bad I was a small child I didn't want to get called that but i only had the odd candy wrapper to discard. Can't imagine it weighed heavily on any adult tossing all their McDonald's waste out the car window.

It was supposed to be, but my thread title may have killed it dead by being even worse than last year.

Momus is related to the guy from Del Amitri. Counts as obvious because they both have the same surname, and are bad at making music.

Momus is great. Shush!

I'll beat anyone at making a shit thread title. Unlucky.

Just realised (in my watching of every Simpsons from the start) that in "The Simpsons 138th Episode Spectacular" the reason Matt Groening is shown as elderly, bald, and with an eyepatch (and no beard) isn't because he looked like that, or because the staff hated him, but as a parody of Hollywood director John Ford.

Taylor Swift isn't a country act*.

* Though the video she received an award for that time Kanye went mental** was country, so perhaps that made me file her alongside the Dixie Chicks.***

** That same awards show was hosted by Russel Brand. What a night.

*** I've never actually seen the video, nor heard any Taylor Swifts. What about those Superbowls, though, hey? Come on, basketball, do a goal.

[Icehaven]

Taylor Swift isn't a country act*.

I thought that too until very recently, and wondered how a country act was getting so popular in the UK. Still never really heard anything by her except the odd snippet on the news or wherever but that was enough to realise it's poppy crap rather than country crap.

That's pretty much the same thought process I had. It's understandable in America because they like Garth Brooks and Chrizzo wank like the Jonas Brothers or whatever, but I heard about a British family shelling out £5k a pop on tickets for Swift and I was like, hold on.

I'm calling bullshit. Better start another thread as the premise of this one is fucked.

 

_{Admittedly, one does look like a cock, though...}

[Shaxberd]

Taylor Swift did start out as a country act* to begin with, so it's understandable why you'd assume she still was if you don't follow pop music.

And some country acts are surprisingly popular in the UK, Brad Paisley can sell out arenas despite not being on TV or the radio.

United at the team that go at the top, grandad.

This led me to Wikipedia



A few 02iouvs things:

1 - it's premier league, not premiere
2 - it's been going on since 1992, and it only feels like it's been everywhere, interminably, all the time, forever.
3 - the circled bit is the period where I was, if not paying attention to football, then hanging around with people who were. I had the Panini book with a Magic Eye in it, if that's an anchor point. Seeing the other Manchester team take over from united has made my reality shift slightly, like whenever I have to remind myself that Lincoln was a Republican.
