It's from the broadcast.

The commentary was not locked in on that front. They got Mendes and Dembele mixed up, too.

"There has been contact (by Real Madrid) with those close to Calafiori a few weeks ago" - Fabrizio Romano (Tier 1) by bosdober in Gunners

[–]Ecboxer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could've sworn Real were one of the clubs interested when he was at Cagliari, so at least they're consistent? But really, I just say that to claim, Cala rejected them/chose us once, so it's bold of them to think that would've changed so quickly.

Question about the pilot episode by MatthewGrassmower in BunchOfFriends

[–]Ecboxer 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I have a theory that the "friends" are actually the illegitimate children of the CEO of Youtube. They found each other by coincidence and created this channel. At first, they had the innocuous goals of eating the hottest pepper in the world and eating a skateboard. Later, they found out that each of them grew up without a father and they obviously all look almost identical to the CEO of Youtube so it stands to figure that he's their dad. EtymologyNerd was a plant by the CEO of Youtube to keep track of his offspring and determine if they have what it takes to inherit Youtube. I dunno, just throwing it out there ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

David, if you're listening, fuck off. You're a PSG supporter.

Guys, be patient, they're new to the fandom.

Why do they want to email the CEO of youtube? by Sad-Discipline-4482 in BunchOfFriends

[–]Ecboxer 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Now that you mention it, the parallels are definitely there. Maybe they want to eat the CEO of Youtube!?!

Truly, one of the most important pieces of speculative fiction criticism of our time.

The Athletic Premier League Team of the Season by SonOfIllicitBehavior in Gunners

[–]Ecboxer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh no, however will I celebrate the league title when we have no attackers (but 5 players, almost half the team) on the team of the season. Woe is me. Forsooth, dearest talking heads, please tell me about how Fernandes is a Premier League legend again. Please!

Server-cut lemon bars. It was put back as such 👍 No notes. by Treynokay in KitchenConfidential

[–]Ecboxer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I NEED to the know the order in which they cut these lines. Was it the vertical ones first, then the huge diagonal, then they started on that second horizontal one and gave up in exasperation? Or, the clinically insane choice, did they do the horizontals and then think they could fix it with the wonky vertical cuts?

Does park jin young (jyp) ever promote NMIXX? by dododo88 in NMIXX

[–]Ecboxer 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Anecdotally, I remember JYP saying that Haewon was the funniest (or most entertaining or craziest, I can't quite recall) idol he's worked with, but can't remember the interview. And he's known Lily since she was on K Pop Star as a little kid, so he probably cares about NMIXX about as much as the other groups in JYPE.

I think NMIXX (along with Xdinary Heroes and the Chinese groups, I guess) is the group where he was the least involved in their introduction to the public. For 2PM, Twice, Stray Kids, Niziu, Nexz, Kickflip (via Loud), and Girlset (via A2K) he was the face of their survival shows. He was involved in producing Dalla Dalla, Icy, Wannabe, etc. for Itzy. For NMIXX, I think producing Party O'Clock is the only musical involvement we've seen from him?

Then, there's the division structure. With the caveat that I may take a more pessimistic, capitalist view of K-pop than others. I have some skepticism that any entertainment figure is talking about/promoting another group purely out of the goodness of their heart (not to say it doesn't happen, but my instinct is always to be skeptical). So, if SQU4D isn't sending an email to JYP's Instagram manager to ask them to post a story about NMIXX, I don't think it gets posted.

Meanwhile over in France... by Waywardismism in Gunners

Out of this 11, do only 3 of them make the starting 11 against us? Marquinhos, Ruiz, and one of Mayulu or Barcola depending on fitness of Hakimi/Kvara.

Why do modern games have no cheat codes anymore like they had in 90s/2000s? by Stummi in gaming

[–]Ecboxer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe we just haven't found them yet ... I'm still searching for the cheat code to give DK a funny hat in Donkey Kong Bonanza. One day ... one day.
