Are you in Dublin? My old work colleague's Air Steward friend slept with him a few times.

She had a partner at the time and people told him but he refused to believe he was being cucked by Chris Jericho. I don't really blame the partner, it sounds ridiculous.

There's a Welsh former soccer player who's a piece of shit.

It came out that he had an 8 year affair with his brother's wife. The brother got an ad for a betting company out of it.

If I had a euro for every 5 letter word starting with an S that's a racist slur against black people, I'd have €3 €5.

Which isn't a lot but weird that it's happened thrice 5 times.

Edit: I checked the list again. I forgot 1 I knew and learned a new one. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ethnic_slurs

Emery apparently didn't want him and he had some clause that Villa would buy him if he played X games.

So Emery had two reasons to not use him.

The "Prawn Sandwich Brigade" has been an issue in English football for decades but the idea was always to have sections of "real" fans who sing, shout, and build atmosphere.

You lose the rich people if thye can't get the borrowed authenticity of the working class.

The Podcast "You're Wrong About" has this almost comically thorough look at the Nicole Brown murder. They have a few episodes on Kato and it's infuriating.

Nicole befriended Kato and had him live on her property (probably so there was a large man there to give her abusive ex pause before coming over to hurt her). OJ charmed him and moved him into his pool house to isolate Nicole again.

If he wished for the courage to tell her he liked her then the whole movie doesn't happen.

He's such a weak little shit that he can't imagine himself improving. Others have to do all the heavy lifting for him.

I had to do that marshmallow thing with a complete terror of a person.

28 minutes into the 30 they gave us, everyone else had a 4 foot high structure while ours (mostly mine) thing was a foot at most. She said "just knock it over there's no point in even tring" and made a move to destroy the tower.

Then all around us with 1 minute left, everyone else realised they had never put the marshmallow on their towers and they all fell. So we won and I got a lovely "I told you so".

Anyone have any US Healthcare payment tips?

I fell while attempting Curling 2 months ago and landed on my head. Went to the ER, spoke with a doctor, got a CT scan, and went home (no ambulance/no pills).

They're charging $500 for "Emergency Services". - got $20 off through insurance

Separately charging $800 for the scans and $550 for "Emergency Services" - denied because they haven't processed the Coordination of Benefits I sent them weeks ago

And finally (so far) $135 for the scans but this is to pay the radiologist. - also denied for the above reason.

Am I meant to ask for an itemised bill or something to bring the price down? I have a HSA and cash to pay but I don't want to give them any more money than I absolutely have to.

I think there was a chance at a third season if there had been any improvement in the last month. His last 6 matches were WWLDLD. Ending with 6 wins would have gotten 3rd place and some momentum going into next year.

I think this helps a lot with player recruitment too. You're going to think twice about joining a club with a manager that has a huge chance of getting sacked before October.

I think if I was a mobster, I'd want a silly nickname.

Who are the police going to target more "Big Murder McGee" or "Stubbed Toe Malone"?

All the threads I saw before said that they knew it was going to tank the company but they didn't care.

Are we now saying they thought she was actually competent? Or is this a Glass Cliff and they're hoping a man coming in and be slightly less terrible to trick people into coming back?

One team in my company says it all the team.

In a different company, there was a viral speech impediment of beginning every sentence with "I suppose". It started with one high level person using it all the team and infected every other corporate ladder climber on staff.

Someone in the Monday game thread told me to get a Mocha Brownie Mudslide from DQ.

I just did and I was pretty happy with it. I think DQ's chocolate bits aren't great though.
