  1. Black Mass. Depp is mental in it, worth it just to see him in deranged role which isn't a drunk pirate. Steve Jobs. Thought it was really well done and more about the sort of people who change the way the world looks. Youth. Fell asleep, I was knackered but it was a bit too slow and sleepy. Enjoyed Mark Kozeleck's appearance and the opening version of You Got The Love, need to re-watch. Sisters. Fucking shite.
  2. Do you want me to fly to Newcastle to sort it out for you?
  3. I think i shared the download to that in this thread a few years ago? Worth checking.
  4. "Death of a Salesman". Critical flop, everyone could see straight through it.
  5. Not sure myself, could be Dre i suppose. Hip-hop beefs are not really my thing, as you can tell despite Alex's persistence.
  6. I prefer my cricket news from this thread, its much more convenient if sometimes a bit lengthy.
  7. Dave's going to look a right ponce from London when he turns up in Manchester mincing about with a chihuahua in his man-bag.
  8. I was aware of the new Kanye album! I was just asking / wondering whether the 'rapper with the ghost writer' from King Kunta was a reference to work Kendrick did for Kanye. Who could be said to be a 'king'. I'm not convinced he would reference Drake - especially not given the subject matter of King Kunta which seems to be the most common interpretation of the line.

    My knickers just dropped.
  10. The worst k hole I was ever in was after a 3 day bender at a festival, on the Monday morning we we're still going in some random tent in a campsite about 2 km from where we staying. Took a wee bit too much and ended up with head zipped outside the tent, with the zip around my neck and body inside. It was pouring with rain and blowing a gale but I needed some fresh air so thats what I decided I needed to do for half an hour. Apparently I was talking coherently (from what they could make out) but I was tripping out and lost myself for a while completely convinced that sticking my head into a force 8 gale at 6 in the morning was the best thing for me. The second part of the story about us getting home is also a classic tale of youthful idiocy.
  11. I did a thesis on the internal market in the NHS, I don't have the answer as to whether it has worked or not but the work that I picked up on was through a series of occasional papers by the London School of Economics by a left leaning prof. He used the Markets vs Hierarchies work of Oliver Williamson to say that the cost of running the market in the NHS would be higher than the benefits. 5 years later that prof was working for Blair and masterminding his 3rd way Socialism. 15 years later Williamson won the Nobel prize for the Hierarchies work. Take of that what you will, don't know of any formal work that has tested the hypothesis that the market in the NHS is more efficient.

    Pretty sure an un-chopped one would make the eyes water too.

    Think of it like the difference between fingering your own arse and having someone else's finger up there.
  14. We watch a lot of Peppa Pig because the kids love it, what's your excuse?

    Hold a wooden matchstick in your teeth whilst chopping. Seriously, it works.
  17. My mate had MS so it looked totally legit from the bizzies perspective.
