  1. Deadpool FC have looked like cannon fodder, then they go one nil up with a cannon from Cannon.
  2. See, like big Ange, spurred you into action! Finger. On. The. Pulse! Btw forgot B our former academy player, Ben Tozer, is captain for Deadpool FC.
  3. You'd be fine still in rural/regional, white-hood wearing 'stralia, so about 15% of the population but it's amazing how much has changed since then with regard to the thoughts on our colonial history. It's totally understandable seeing the first nations people have been so badly treated for 200 odd years but truth is there needs to be a middle ground but there never is with our stupid species.
  4. It was invasion day here yesterday, so probably best next time you and the future ex-wife are in town, you don't point that out to people!
  5. You didn't see where I said I've resigned myself to not retiring until 70? Only the lucky win lotteries, we support NUFC!
  6. National lottery thing called powerball, just jackpotted to $200 000 000 Australian pesos. Stupidly if I won it, I'd employ people and end up working harder, but it would be my productions and no fucking frankengrabs.
  7. You are definitely going to need the bold underlined option driving the Chinese MG POS.
  8. When I will the 200m next week, you can either have 100k or a job, if you want?
  9. Interestingly I don't think AI could do it successfully - the nuance of inflection and each particular person's delivery, ie how they speak, would be lost on AI. I've seen many a producer hand off what they think is an acceptable frankengrab only for the editor to tell them to fuck off because no one speaks like that. Now the number of dyslexic producers using ChatGPT to rewrite their crap VO scripts is another matter.
  10. Worst fucking advice ever. Choose smack Rents, choose life!
  11. Further to this, when do all the all men of TT think they are going to be able/afford to retire? I've resigned myself to it not happening before 70 if I live that long/can continue to find employment.
  12. Don't know the show you "guys" are talking about but Meenzer makes an interesting point about the difference between English productions and other English speaking countries reality TV shows. When editing shows for broadcasters in Australia or the US of A, we, editors, are forced to make what the industry calls Frankengrabs, so taking pieces from various interviews/scenes, to create the story/drama that the production wants. Next time you watch Married at first sight or some such shite, there are multiple clues to a frankengrab, it will sound slightly robotic, the inflection between words will sound wrong or there will be a lack of natural rhythmn in the sentence - sometimes you get lucky but generally you can hear them. Visually the clues are you will see the person for only a small part of the whole time they are speaking, usually at the start, then they will cut away to reactions from others in the scene, a non-sync wide like the back of that person's head or even exteriors of where the scene is. It's manufacturing something from what is often already an extreme situation the protagonist is placed in. If you are making the same show for an English broadcaster they don't allow frankengrabs - which is the way it should be.
  13. Let's be honest Paul Simonon is what makes TG,TB,TU, Albarn is just along for the ride.
  14. Never saw Oasis and only saw Blur when they were first support on the JMC Rollercoaster tour at the Brixton Academy. Who would thunk the first band for Jesus and Mary Chain, Dinosaur Jr and My Bloody Valentine, turned out to be as successful as they were? Mind you in 92, they'd only released Leisure and were considered shoegaze.
  15. Not like Scotty to listen to anything not on commercial radio/TOTP
  16. Nope Do I look like Monkey Fist ffs? I think I was about 12 when I bought it and cream can get to fuck as well, so it's not that shite. As others have said, putting Screamadelica is just courting controversy.
  17. Likewise, even though I wasn't tagged, only one and I doubt it's the one people think.
  18. You lot forget, he was still Eddie's first choice when everyone was fit.
  19. Scotty, just get them to give you a bionic ear to go with the jumper pack they put in your chest, you'll be right. Maybe see if they can give you a two for one and get that strap on implant as well. Hope it all turns out to be nothing and things right themselves. Remember if you listen to the Jesus and Mary Chain, you won't notice the tinnitus.
  20. Been watching at bit of the Asian Cup and the Saudis look terrible. And their manager is? Manchini! On this performance, that's one less for Eddie to worry about. Klinsmann is head coach of Korean Republic as well.
