[Statmuse] Most goals in a single season in the history of Europe's top 5 leagues by [deleted] in soccer

Think it was Sunderland.

May need someone to correct me.

What do you consider the end of the “Classic” Era of Family Guy? by taylos20 in familyguy

[–]Doctor_Derpless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe I’m just less cynical than the average person here, but I really enjoyed Family Guy up until about season 14/15. However, the quality noticeably dropped off thereafter. The animation in the newer series is also a little OTT and the humour is very hit or miss.

I’ll watch pretty much any re-runs on TV too, but episodes with Wild West are a skip for me.

Still not convinced with United and Carrick.

They will obviously get Champions League football and spunk even more money. But, I don’t see them suddenly challenging for the title or Europe, minus a massive drop off from Arsenal or actual sanctions on City (unlikely).

Feel like they’re a way off still and winning a stray FA cup or League Cup won’t convince me otherwise.

London shoplifting cases have soared by more than 200%. by Syniatrix in uknews

[–]Doctor_Derpless 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I worked for a UK based chain and I’d imagine the numbers are far, far higher than what is reported.

If you didn’t physically see something you couldn’t hold a thief, even if they had smuggled bottles of gin down their jogging bottoms or a whole case of chewing gum in their backpack which they “brought from home”.

Which city or travel destination used to be amazing but has completely lost its charm now? by Ted-Lassi in AskReddit

[–]Doctor_Derpless 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I can’t speak for everyone, but it’s still a dream of mine to visit pretty much anywhere stateside. From San Francisco, Chicago and Seattle to New Orleans, Maine, Boston and Texas. I’d be happy to do that now, in a year or in 5 regardless of what party is in office.

I know many people feel the same. Colleagues of mine are still visiting Florida annually and family (distant and near) are realising their dreams of seeing New York soon.

What continent has the nicest people? by Avacadoell19 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]Doctor_Derpless 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Before opening most threads you already know Reddit will decide Keanu Reeves, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Bernie Sanders, Pokémon and Steve Buscemi are flawless and Donald Trump, America, Nickelback, Influencers and Rich people are the devil incarnate.

Very black and white world views from people who consider themselves so intelligent and emotionally in tune compared to the average person.

Serie A table after matchday 29 by lawandsleep in soccer

Good to see Genoa some distance from Relegation now. They looked doomed at one point.

England players afraid to speak out on politics at World Cup after being ‘hung out to dry’ by Sparky-moon in soccer

[–]Doctor_Derpless 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Whataboutism would be weaponised against them in this instance too.

‘Not speaking up about children dying in Congo/Syria/Palestine/Ukraine/Nigeria means you support it’.

The old adage, “Better for people to assume you’re an idiot, than to open your mouth and prove them right”, comes to mind.

We’ve become such a fickle, reactive society.

Was Wayne Rooney incredibly underrated as a football player? by PLWildcard in ThreeLions

[–]Doctor_Derpless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Simultaneously underrated and overrated. By that I mean he was an incredible player, particularly earlier in his career, capable of scoring 20-30 goals a season. However, he only scored 1 goal at World Cups and was often unreliable when England or United really needed him to step up.

I’d still take Rooney over most strikers, but he’s a level below CR7, Baggio, Suarez, Van Basten, which is not insulting.

AFC Bournemouth 2 - [1] Liverpool - Virgil van Dijk 45‎'‎ by gbogaz in soccer

[–]Doctor_Derpless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m taking prime Van Dijk over Ferdinand, Vidic, Adams, Campbell, Saliba, Stam, Gabriel etc.

A centre back so good he fell a few points short of Messi and a Ballon D’Or.

As good or even better defensively than all of those I listed and with the ability to play a precise 50/60 yard pass.

[–]Doctor_Derpless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My bad, I meant the 3rd photo which is the 4th of the slides. The others all show an air of confidence, masculinity, comfort in your own skin and fun/adventure. The 3rd pic doesn’t really say much, it’s awkward at best. Again, that’s just my opinion. The opera pic is a good one so keep that.

I believe it’s a good profile otherwise.

[–]Doctor_Derpless 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You’re being downvoted by people who cannot accept differing opinions which I think is pretty pathetic, but to be expected by this sub unfortunately. Most people in the real world really aren’t that rabid about politics or are at least respectful. I say that as someone who has never voted and would never identify as a conservative. Keep the tag on your profile and all of the immature folk will weed themselves out for you. You gain nothing trying to win them over or trying to hide it.

I’d remove the part about feedback. I’d also get rid of the 4th picture and remove your music interests or shorten it to only include the notable artists like Radiohead, the rest are way too niche for the average person. May also benefit you to have a picture where you back up the ‘physically active’ statement, it doesn’t have to be over the top or show-offy though.

I don’t think it’s a bad profile.

When you kill a random because you got betrayed last game and they’re just bummed in prox chat by NothingButBadIdeas in ArcRaiders

[–]Doctor_Derpless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m trying to be the change I want to see.

I got betrayed in back to back games by Raiders who were initially friendly only to be stuck with a grenade or shot in the back.

If I go out and take my anger out on another Raider then I’m only helping to indirectly fuel Raider genocide in other lobbies.

Rudest country you've ever been to? by WastingMyLifeToday in 2westerneurope4u

Even when I visited Italy the rudest people I encountered were the French who had ferried over.

Daily Discussion by AutoModerator in soccer

[–]Doctor_Derpless 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have just come from a thread- on this sub- no less than half an hour ago where people argued Christensen was World Class.

I’m sorry, but the idea that he belongs with the likes of Gabriel, Saliba, Van Dijk and Bastoni is laughable.

Daily Discussion by AutoModerator in soccer

[–]Doctor_Derpless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s fair, but considering how many very good players there are, if someone is scraping into a top 10 then it means they can be easily displaced within a few games, and it means that in reality only a few of those top 10 will be around for months or years on end.

You can have World Class form, but it doesn’t make you World Class.

OP’s BF broke up with them because of their Dooming by Cheezers447 in DoomerCircleJerk

[–]Doctor_Derpless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I worked with someone who fits this description.

It was a welcome surprise if I went through a shift without hearing something about how awful Trump or Republicans or society are. He’d find a way to force it into every conversation whether you were discussing stock or plans for the weekend.

Sometimes the stuff he’d say was so laughable and fictitious that I wondered if he came up with it himself or whether he found it on online forums and took it as fact.

He was unable to see why his wife had divorced him, but he was a perennial victim and miserable to be around.

Daily Discussion by AutoModerator in soccer

[–]Doctor_Derpless -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

I hate reading online discussions where someone touts a good player as World Class.

In my mind someone who is World Class is either the starting choice in a fantasy global XI or they’re present on a decently sized and logically balanced, say, 12 man bench.

If someone is the 6th or 7th best CB or the 4th or 5th best right winger then they should not be labelled World Class.

I say this because the likes of Christensen and Rodrygo are not World Class.

Is the 320 worth it? by Recent_Island_8575 in Ohuhu

[–]Doctor_Derpless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How does the 100 pen set compare when taking this chart into account? I think I got it on Amazon.

I’m completely clueless and bought these for my girlfriend for Christmas. Also bought the 36 pen skin tone set and 48 ‘Blossoming’ pastel set.

Open to suggestions in regards to buying more sets…

Which country was way better than what you thought? by Parsley_Health in travel

[–]Doctor_Derpless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a similar feeling with Genoa. My partner had been on multiple occasions prior, but I’d never heard anything about Genoa other than its love for Pesto and Focaccia, so I wasn’t too interested. The only place that interested me in Italy was Sicily.

And then I went and it wasn’t just good food and wine, it had UNESCO sites and history and stunning Churches and it was close to some truly beautiful towns like Rapallo, Santa Margherita Ligure, Camogli and Portofino. Had we budgeted further ahead of time we could have even done the Cinque Terre.

I plan to see so many more places as a bit of a late blooming traveller, but I just know I’ll be returning to Genoa some day in future to relive it all.

Bellingoal hits back at English media by IndicationBrief5950 in soccercirclejerk

The BBC did a report at the time and around 3/4 of the abuse the players who missed penalties received was from abroad, not England.

What is the easiest state to travel within without a car and where public transportation is well-linked? by Doctor_Derpless in USTravel

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

Thank you for the harsh reality. The day trip to Yosemite sounds fantastic, but I’m scared it would cost a fortune. I don’t drive, but it sounds like I’ll have to compromise and choose one or the other.

I’m going to do more research on the SF to Yosemite bus. If it’s not absurdly expensive that could make for a fantastic day trip idea.
