The Fish

We're celebrating the fact that having a meal together at least shows this isn't an acrimonious negotiation and suggests progress is being made. Caulkin's tweets support that.

Not going to be a high number of nice people at that level of business. You have to at least be a bit of a cunt.

Not really, but closer; http://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2017/12/07/full-rounds-premier-league-games-shown-live-tv-first-time/

I think you underestimate his years of experience and total indifference to how he looks.

So say you're sat at 70mph in the middle lane, someone doing 72 now has to overtake you, then anyone and everyone doing 80 in the fast lane has to sit behind the overtaker for a mile because of you. Forgetting that if more people drove properly there'd be less congestion, less fuel usage, fewer areas of variable speed limits, fewer crashes, and so on. But you don't care because it's about what's easiest for you. That's a very Tory way of thinking.

and a job and a girlfriend, did I not mention it?

So you don't care it causes congestion, that it's contrary to the highway code and that people think it's a dick move? Do you.. do you want my BMW?

If there's nothing in front of you, nothing to your left and the car behind can't overtake, you're causing congestion. Few things more annoying than someone in the middle lane for no reason.

The point, surely, is to strike a balance between some kind of historical accuracy without exhibiting some of the bigotry/misogyny/small mindedness we're trying to leave behind? e.g. Godless depicts homosexual relationships, interracial romance, eloquence, and mutual respect between races and genders. Hardly accurate, but entertaining nonetheless. If COD WWII was more accurate there'd be homophobia, racism and misogyny aots, things that young gamers would surely reflect in the real world. Not blatantly, obvs, but it would influence them.

Hasn't that process begun? The fit and proper thingy?

There's little to stop the new owners giving Benitez cash to spend on players now, is there?

I want one purely for Mario Kart 8

Not sure it really matters like. I mean, if you wanted an accurate WWII game you'd spend much of the game dug in, holding a position, while waiting for orders, or resupply. You'd be sent to your death during ill-conceived battles by chinless idiots. You'd have one or two types of weapon and you wouldn't have a clue how to drive a tank, or whatever.

Boasting? You don't know the half of it

He's had to hang up the Comedy Cape, the Bravado Balaclava, and the Football Fez.

Should be plain(er) sailing for us, no chain, flexible move-date, etc.

You're thinking about this wrong mate, all the things that are happening are good things and things that I want to happen. It's just that I don't handle change very well, unfortunately circumstances dictate that things happen within this timeframe.

I won't be travelling that much to be honest, it just so happened that the project I'm working on needed me to go to Bath and Edinburgh. She'll be going from Manchester to Nottingham or up to Sunderland, but only 2 days a week max and even then it'll be journeys she'll do in a day. It's not like she'll need to be away for weeks on end. Also, the company I now work for is moving offices and will have a doggy-daycare company on site.

Nah, they're very good for anxiety and depression and stuff. Or did you mean don't buy a dog because that gif shows a dog wearing a hat (never make a dog wear clothes, it's lame and stupid), drinking coffee (pretty sure that's poisonous for dogs), and the house is on fire?

Edgy? I don't handle change very well, I like routines and gradual, manageable progress. Just bought a car, getting married soon, put offers in for a couple of houses, only been at this job for 3 1/2months, part of this new job involved travelling, which isn't something I've done a lot of... we'll be trying for kids in 2018, buying a dog, moving house again, she'll likely be changing the role of her job which might mean a lot of travel... I need the opposite of this gif;

Jesus christ. Eight years of soreballs? Remember a lad at school crumpled after a heavy challenge (or maybe a ball to the nads), anyway it turns out he suffered a testicular torsion. Needed surgery to put it back the right way, but that was asap.

MURCA I actually apologised to that video, because I have no change to spare.

What's the point of making announcements about wanting to sell? I could understand if it wasn't during the season, to get attention when there's no football on.

Sounds like a kick in the balls mate, hope it goes well and your nurse is more Animaniacs than Cuckoo's Nest.
