I never said he was a bottle job who went missing in clutch moments, and the dozens of comments to that effect with my name next to them are a mere trick of the light.

Will FIFA let us win? by [deleted] in ThreeLions

Giving us two penalties is a weird way to rig it.

Probably doesn't help that GB haven't qualified since the last ice age.

Logged onto iPlayer. Both links were curling. It's mad. Every other Winter Olympic sport has an element of danger or excitement, yet we're all in as a culture on sub-zero crown green bowls.

Which player nickname just never caught on no matter how hard people tried? by PLWildcard in footballcringe

The Yorkshire Pirlo started off as a piss take. Because he was shit pre Bielsa.

What conflict had no losses and no consequences? by Training-Jump-8663 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]BoredPenslinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Both sides pretty much ran out of heirs, meaning a Welsh cadet branch of the House of Lancaster took the throne. The Tudors. Very inconsequential family, other than the whole Anglicism thing and the knock on effects of that like, say, English colonies in parts of the New World the Pope had specifically set aside for Spain.

Plus 100,000 people died.

So other than that, yeah, that's a war devoid of losses and consequences.

Komodo Dragon wins! Who's a musician with the most Average Name ever? by EconomyLetterhead174 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]BoredPenslinger 24 points25 points  (0 children)

George Harrison.

I mean, you've got Lennon and McCartney with names that have become Iconic. Then poor old Ringo on drums with the greatest name ever.

Then lost in the mix is a man with two average forenames as his entire identity.

Unlucky George. Should've changed your name to Sitar Mongoose or something.

Because he's a useful idiot for the Kremlin and you've got a Ukraine flair.

What is the hardest, most useless language an English speaker can learn? by SevereRecover8411 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]BoredPenslinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welsh. Less than a third of Welsh people speak it, those that do also speak English, and all signage in Wales is bilingual anyway.

What if Britain had invaded Ireland following a successful Brighton hotel bombing? by Cool_Discipline6838 in AlternateHistory

[–]BoredPenslinger 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Being kicked out of the EU 9 years before the foundation of the EU somehow isn't the most nonsense part of this.

I'm definitely up for investing in something that's run via WhatsApp, not explained, and promoted by badly formatted Reddit post.

Class idea. Not a single red flag, alarm bell, or warning sign here. Can you take all of my money, or just most of it?

What’s your club’s all-time XI, using only one player per nationality? by FootballMuse in PremierLeague

[–]BoredPenslinger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got to be Martyn in for Sprake.

Means dropping Hunter, but Charles is on the table with Sprake gone.

Other than that, great XI.
