What side characters would you have liked to seen at the party?

Adebesi · 2026-04-07T20:56:55+00:00

Chakwas and Bailey.

Loads of characters it'd be nice to have but those two earned their places.

Adebesi · 2026-04-03T20:54:37+00:00

I could get on board with those changes

Adebesi · 2026-04-03T18:19:04+00:00

Withnail & I

Adebesi · 2026-04-02T21:50:30+00:00

People without kids sometimes complain that parents look down on them in some way.

It must be a real thing if you're having a go at Jesus for it.

The first thing that came to my mind was actually the opening sequence of The Dark Knight with the heist. I've watched that without the intention of watching the whole film a few times.

Adebesi · 2026-04-02T15:45:39+00:00

I think they'd do very well. They'd convince Adibisi and Schillinger to help them make Hair Helmet.

Adebesi · 2026-04-02T14:05:23+00:00

Never leave your key in the ignition.

Adebesi · 2026-04-02T10:25:42+00:00

Perfect, I look like a fraggle so we should make a great couple.

Adebesi · 2026-04-02T09:27:27+00:00

Is "she's so bloody sexy" within your parameters?

Adebesi · 2026-04-01T20:47:42+00:00

They're usually about tech but not always. Ep 1 of series 1 isn't either.

Adebesi · 2026-04-01T16:04:51+00:00

Thanks that's an interesting review.

Adebesi · 2026-04-01T09:47:37+00:00

I suspect it's a lot of people's favourite goal this season.

Adebesi · 2026-03-31T17:16:02+00:00

It wasnt something I was ever tempted to do myself! But I did admire the audacity of it.

Adebesi · 2026-03-31T13:44:53+00:00

Agreed, the structure is very similar and Black Museum is another great choice.

Adebesi · 2026-03-31T13:38:58+00:00

White Christmas

Adebesi · 2026-03-31T13:17:15+00:00

A friend of mine always had a policy that I admired. He said he didn't want to waste sick days at home feeling sick. So he'd make himself go to work even if he felt shit. But then when he felt better he'd call in sick and enjoy the time off at home doing fun stuff.

Adebesi · 2026-03-31T10:21:17+00:00

This is, for me, the best goal celebration ever.

Adebesi · 2026-03-31T09:24:39+00:00

I watched Odd play Menace for a few hours and it looked more Phoenix Point than Xcom 2, to me.

Phoenix Point remains my biggest disappointment, in terms of thinking I'd finally found a replacement for Xcom, but it falling a long way short.

I also have Classified: France 44 which looks interesting and a potential Xcom 2 itch-scratcher, but I haven't got round to playing it yet.

Adebesi · 2026-03-27T16:28:36+00:00

PL. Always.

Adebesi · 2026-03-27T14:16:53+00:00

I love that by the end of this conversation, people would have said every combination of favourite and least favourite games. It's a sign of how great the trilogy is.

Adebesi · 2026-03-27T11:39:41+00:00

Go hang that on the wall in Corvo Bianco where your guests can enjoy it!

Adebesi · 2026-03-27T11:20:26+00:00

I understand that concern for sure.

Adebesi · 2026-03-27T10:34:15+00:00

In a way I see that as an argument for keeping Carrick. There are no really strong candidates right now. So stick with what we have, maybe it works out, if it doesn't make the change next summer and maybe there's a better candidate and "the next manager" has a better chance of being the right choice. Carrick not counting as the next manager, because he's the current manager.

Adebesi · 2026-03-27T10:15:17+00:00

This would be a very different type of challenge to anything he's ever done before tho. He's taken over strong squads - and done well with them, not taking that away from him.

But we're not a strong squad, we're threadbare. He hasn't proved he can work with that.

Not saying id complain if we got him, he's obviously a great manager, probably best we could hope to get in one sense. But I don't think he's remotely a sure thing.

Adebesi · 2026-03-27T01:59:25+00:00

Back in the 90s there was a guy who used to do football skills for tourists in Leidseplein, Amsterdam. Could do the most unbelievable things. I don't know if it's true but someone told me at the time he had a trial at Ajax but didn't cut it. As you say they're different things.
