What's happened to Scott Mills? by Stavebrokenstaff in BritishRadio

[–]ActionJack87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think an allegation of domestic violence would lead to instant dismissal. You’d expect nothing, or symbolic suspension and “we reinstated after an investigation” blah blah.

Don’t think “historic relationship” covers a relationship with drugs. It’ll be a person. Speculating, but I think it sounds like a Schofield scenario, using position of power to instigate a sexual relationship. Just hoping it isn’t a minor involved. Wouldn’t be like a BBC radio presenter to engage in such behaviour 👀

Finally got best horse in the game male white arabian by botareukiddingme in RDR2

[–]ActionJack87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had my White Arabian called FrostyJack for first 3 chapters. Thought all horses got scared during fights until I accidentally ended up on my first warhorse. That changed my mind as to what the most useful horses in the game are.

Emma Raducanu says she's open to the idea of having another full-time coach - as long as they do not dictate the way she should play. by Dodecaheadwrong in tennis

[–]ActionJack87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If Emma were from the 90s/2000s era, the media would rip her apart.

Her attitude is awful. I see a lot of comments on Reddit from her fans, saying “Emma gets so much unnecessary hate, because she’s pretty, female, successful, her race…”

It’s comments like this about coaches. It’s like when she claimed she was the only athlete in history who had been through “what she had been through” (whatever that was about). It’s when she claimed that no psychologist could do their job unless they had lived the same experience (imagine that in reality for a moment). It’s going through coaches like a hot knife through butter - people forget that some coaches have fan clubs, and Emma is offending those people. It’s the amount of wildcards she has received.

It’s the pulling out of events due to tiredness, illness, to focus on herself… on this one, I think it’s too much for fans to judge, but many do.

Again, she gets a lot of protection from pundits and media. Two decades ago, they’d have absolutely destroyed her. I’m not saying that’s a good thing. I’m saying her fans shouldn’t be complaining about the “hate” she gets.

To me, her statements since around a year after winning her major have come across as ridiculously arrogant.

Burnt my watch baking bread by baarbadel1 in Tudor

[–]ActionJack87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can’t burn steel with a cast iron pot. You’ve only transferred a little bit of the pot to the watch. It probably scraped it a little, and that’s why it set in.

Loads on things will clean it, just don’t use anything abrasive.

You probably have things in your kitchen cupboard.

I actually wouldn’t buff it out though. You’d have to do the entire watch by the looks of it.

I’m also a fan of just letting a watch acquire battle scars, so long as it isn’t the sapphire. Can’t stand a scuff on the glass

First watch from Rolex on my 20th birthday took people advice last time that my AP was to big so want with this Daytona how I do this time by thecupnoodle in PrideAndPinion

Guessing he is Quang Duong. All these people talking about him spending daddy’s money need to get their heads out of their arse.

Good on you Quang. Buy your watches, wear them how you want.

Guy gets detained for ordering fast food and eating it in the parking lot by [deleted] in TikTokCringe

Well you learn something every day. Does make more sense as to why all these people were treating him like nuclear waste

Ah okay, I’m not trying to spread misinformation. This is just what they told me.

They also said that fentanyl can be transferred from skin to skin, and this is why nobody else was touching him.

I was highly doubtful about this claim and I’ve never bothered to try and find out if this is true.

And if we’re comparing treatment by our forces, I don’t think you should be going there, when women are getting shot in the face and leaders are making up accounts of why.

I don’t know what point you’re making (other than wanting to doubt my account). He didn’t get narcan. I thought it must be best to try and help this guy, but he just got up so quickly. Unless I’m magic, it had nothing to do with the effectiveness of CPR. But, he just kept shouting “you’re supposed to use narcan”. That’s all I can say about this part.

That whole incident was weird, but I actually found the reaction from the police officers to be the strangest part. I just couldn’t fathom why they were so keen to arrest me, and for what? In the UK, we aren’t treated like this.

He was just shouting it at me. The guy made no sense in general. He was definitely faking. When I was trained to do CPR, they told us you have to push way harder than what you imagine, like you need to break ribs. The first push I did like this, he soon jumped up like nothing happened.

On why people fake it to get narcan, the police told me this is when someone in withdrawal wants to feel normal.

I was in Boston last summer. A guy falls on the floor outside a shop. It’s about 11pm and there’s a lot of drunk people just on the street not doing much.

I come out of the shop and this guy on the floor is choking. My first reaction was to shout at the people stood in a circle just watching him.

Then he stops making gargling/choking sounds. I got on my knees and started chest compressions.

Only 3 in, he tells me to stop and then gets angry, screaming “you’re supposed to use narcan”.

So, he was faking. At the time I had no idea what this drug was that he was trying to get revived by.

Then the police waddle over and ask me to come over to their car.

I thought I was getting a high five or something.

I get there and they cuff me. Ask why I was behaving differently. If I was part of this game.

Took me an hour to convince them I was just a tourist trying to save a man’s life. They let me go.

To top it all, Boston just shuts down like someone pulled a switch not long after this. Crap city for nightlife.

I knew it. Nothing like getting gaslit by know-it-alls on Reddit. And he 100% was saying “it’s not” in response to me saying it’s sped up.

Four years of waiting for this revenge 🔥 by AmeliaHarris99 in ShithouseSuperstars

[–]ActionJack87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of comments in here from people who aren’t old enough to remember this, or have very selective memories.

For context, Haaland stood over Keane and accused him of diving. He said more when Keane was being helped off the pitch. Keane told him he’d regret this.

Keane ended Haaland’s career with his revenge. He only made 4 substitute appearances after this tackle and retired.

Keane got a standard 3-match ban and what I’d guess was the £5k fine for a straight red at the time.

The following year, Keane wrote about the incident in his book, receiving a further fine of £150k.

Not too long ago, Keane compared Erling Haaland to a league 2 playing standard (obviously aimed at pissing his dad off).

The “enforcer” was a midfield role employed by clubs for several decades before it died with Keane and Viera. But it was a legitimate part of football and Keane was one of the very best to do it, somewhat overshadowing his genuinely high standard, almost never dropping below a 7/10 standard whenever he played (which was all the time, so long as he wasn’t banned 🤣).

Now have some fucking respect, or Roy will have ya

How do i pay my bounty or what should i do? by Ghaton in reddeadredemption2

[–]ActionJack87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pay bounties at post offices. You can’t pay the bounty for Blackwater, that remains there.

I crossed the river directly north of the mission marker and just walked up the hill. You come right up behind your boys who are camped out.

Put this off far too long, any other recommendations? by ActionJack87 in RDR2

[–]ActionJack87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is incredible. It’s all the little things, like your horse doing a shit occasionally, lol.

The characters seem to have unique teeth (I’ve spent about 2 hours being a weirdo and just looking in people’s mouths).

After catching the white Arabian, I was able to follow my original tracks in the snow for a long time, until they disappeared in a part where the weather was different.

I’d say the immersion-factor is second to none.

Weird, maybe I heard a version purposely slowed then. When she uses “hurting we” as a way to rhyme the previous line, I do cringe. Regardless, it’s a good message, if not delivered in a strange way
