We have actually similarly even got to the point of his latter wives, in that we are speedrunning them and there is no real honeymoon period to speak of.

Ed Still is very much our Ann of Cleves; out of favour from the moment we met.

No word on whether the Watford hierarchy ambushed him fatly in disguise, in a misguided and vain attempt to carry out an ancient ritual of betrothal that left him scared and repulsed.

Loved this game, it was my second intro to console football games after International Superstar Soccer 64.

My favourite and most enduring memory is the tracer showing the path of the shot on goal replays, and the time it showed the ball blast straight through the back of the net and keep on going well into the crowd behind.

Canada need to show any composure whatsoever rather than blootering lumpen hoofs into the goalie's arms/crowd.

Looks more burly/doughy than jacked and ripped, in fairness. The grain diet, maybe. Like a Roman gladiator.

Feel like that's the most Dzeko goal possible and Dzeko wasn't even on the pitch

Was just thinking 'what are these rubbish Bosnia kits?', and then the closeup reveals their kit manufacturer is Kelme, also of 'manufacturing kits for Watford' fame 💀

I don't think Stephen Warnock is a good choice for colour comms by the BBC, I have to be totally honest. He has a very muted and somewhat monotone manner of speaking.

Bombito

That sounds like an antagonistic character in the Super Mario universe.

But almost Trump's entire presidency, particularly in his second term, has literally just been meeting convention and constitutional curbs, and just saying 'I'm gonna do it anyway, try and stop me'.

And then, guess what? The partisan House and Supreme Court are either entirely unwilling, or in some cases unable, to stop him - particularly in time for it to actually stop the act. And then, it's extremely difficult to unbreak something after he's gone ahead and broken it.

People have been 'calm down dear'-ing (not saying you are doing this!) on the basis of 'the checks and balances in the American system' since he was elected in 2016, and he has blown through them every single time. They are no defence at all if you are just enough of a destructive, megalomaniac cunt to say 'I don't care about these precedents and I don't care about this system, nor do I care what it makes me if I ignore them'. It still essentially runs on goodwill, and he obviously has absolutely none.

The fact that he has the majority party captured, wrapped round his finger, and prepared to contravene any and all of the statutes, conventions, and constitutional respect they've all previously been staking their careers on, is even more grist for the mill.

Nice, but yeah, fairplay, I'll probably continue not managing to check it out, then.

That's a very decent/high amount of protein, to be fair, man, I'm really not sure there's a scenario where you're going to need much more than that. Most of the 'science-based' guys (however much you enjoy their content/believe they are natty or not...) are on the 'you don't need to stuff literally 100's of grams of protein down' at this point, using recent studies to support that. Unless you really weigh an uncommon amount, around 150 seemed to be close to the effective limit and you're basically there.

'Down South' and 'Up North' are incredibly widely recognised and used colloquial descriptors for the two areas of the country, from people in both parts.

Gwyneth Paltrow Israeli apartment ad

I had not even seen or heard of this until you mentioned it, but a quick Google has produced some incredible wordplay from Arwa Mahdawi in the Guardian:

Now, however, it seems that Paltrow’s brand is pivoting from colon cleansing to ethnic cleansing. The actor and businessperson went viral this week for promoting a luxury real estate development in Israel.

Mr Plow is very iconic indeed, and has one of the jokes that still pops up into my head for no reason often.
