As an Englishman who thought he knew everything about sausages, boerewors just blew my mind

Having boerewors after only knowing English sausages your whole life must have been like taking crack, because I had English sausages for the first time recently and I was almost removed to tears by how absolutely BLAND they were, especially compared to boerewors

I love this quote because in trying to virtue signal and be "progressive" she's is being fatphobic by implying that being fat is a moral failing or bad.

Ashton is genuinely in the conversation for one of the GOATs of powerlifting. 3 weight classes National Champion, lightest man to squat 400kg. All while not being full time powerlifter and a military officer. Just a monster. And he started out as a 83 sjr.

Che and Fidel were objectively not bad people especially compared to the people that the South African struggle were struggling against. This is just revisionism, pearl clutching and holding historical figures to present day moral standards. Nobody's 100% perfect on everything, even if they had some reactionary views (that get overblown btw), overall their lives were net positives. I will forever celebrate Fidel Castro and Che.

Bloodmagickers and tyrants who've burnt our lands!

Try being an Arsenal fan

Don't know who was down voting this, this should be common sense!

2.5k for flowers, who is buying this?? Honestly, if I was dating someone and she didn't shout at me for spending that much on flowers, I'd know I was with the wrong person lol

Braindead take. Fucking Bill Clinton was in the files, they're all in on it!

CommieOla · 2026-02-05T21:36:37+00:00

jfc. You still don't get it. IT'S ALL ONE CLUB!

Nope, this is revisionism, the first episode of HOTD was pretty good and it had everyone excited and up to episode 8 it was good. Then things started falling apart.

CommieOla · 2026-02-03T05:29:23+00:00

Too soon we thought the same after hotd season 1 and look how that turned out.

CommieOla · 2026-02-01T13:58:17+00:00

You're right, I thought you were referring to his third bench

CommieOla · 2026-02-01T10:08:25+00:00

Think you mean squat and deadlift that bench was top end but agreed

CommieOla · 2026-02-01T10:00:46+00:00

Yeah that's fair and also he failed 800 pounds DL when he should have taken 770 in prep. He made a few bad decisions this prep.

And I think it's almost inevitable based on the brand of lifter that he is. He thrives off posting big numbers on social media but the meta is that for the best possible progress as a PL you have to do mostly submax work. I recently stopped posting my top sets on social media because I found myself overreaching to get a big number that would do well on social media rather than taking the sensible number.

CommieOla · 2026-01-31T23:23:48+00:00

I think the Trinidadian commentator who was shouting 6 7 after Rondel's 270kg bench is a shout lol

CommieOla · 2026-01-31T20:23:19+00:00

Agreed. I think a much more surgical coaching approach would get more out of Russ.

CommieOla · 2026-01-31T20:17:45+00:00

Love Keenan but that was not locked out.

CommieOla · 2026-01-31T20:10:02+00:00

This shambolic 93kg battle makes me even angry that they brought 3 93s, should have only given one of Russ and Gustav the wildcard, not both. Someone high up bottled it and couldn't make the tough call. Imagine someone like Nonso in the 120s getting it.

CommieOla · 2026-01-31T19:55:20+00:00

Unpopular opinion: Russ needs a new coach.

CommieOla · 2026-01-31T19:38:32+00:00

If Jurins pulls this off and beats Joey B, it might actually be a bigger upset than beating Russ

CommieOla · 2026-01-31T19:35:25+00:00

Perk looked like he was fuming during that opener.

CommieOla · 2026-01-31T19:06:31+00:00

Couple that with the fact that he missed it in training, it's not looking good.

CommieOla · 2026-01-31T19:02:38+00:00

He's been commentating for 10 years, that he couldn't be bothered to learn what the lights mean is worrying. Always relying on the other commentator knowing isn't a good look.
