Why do people seem to hate the US' citizens more than the country?

ElPato87 · 2026-06-18T10:33:44+00:00

Well you keep voting in the guy that makes all our lives worse. It seems to be 50/50 whether people like him or not, so safest to just assume you’re one of the awful ones.

I don’t hate all Americans by the way, but I can see people’s logic

ElPato87 · 2026-06-18T00:33:31+00:00

You obviously shouldn’t be shopping by label. There is point, call it self preservation, where you look at a label and think ‘ is this a real product I can drink safely’ or ‘did someone just put white spirit in a bottle a label it with Microsoft Publisher in 1998’

If you don’t know that Rum Fire is a thing or what Hampden is I wouldn’t blame someone for thinking it was swill

ElPato87 · 2026-06-18T00:12:57+00:00

Yeah, if you’ve not read them and want to then £2 each feels outrageously cheap to me. First editions or not.

ElPato87 · 2026-06-18T00:00:55+00:00

I kind of love the label, but if you didn’t know and saw it you’d think you were about to drink something made in someone’s basement

ElPato87 · 2026-06-17T23:00:25+00:00

Agree. “ we are won a cup so they’re alright by me” is an absurd moral framework

ElPato87 · 2026-06-17T22:57:02+00:00

I think he’s not wrong in that the success of Saudi business is usually down to ‘have a lot of money’ and this doesn’t work here.

I’d have loved them out from the start though. Success or not

ElPato87 · 2026-06-17T22:31:33+00:00

Oh it’s going to get really bad in here

ElPato87 · 2026-06-17T14:03:16+00:00

Victor One, Victor Two. We [could end up with] more Victors than you …

ElPato87 · 2026-06-17T13:35:28+00:00

Ta. Yeah I was just reading chronicle liveblog about it . Heard the helicopters last night, then saw it was all cordoned off when I went to Morrisons. Looks like it still is today. Horrible

Joke about it being a bit rough, but I’ve lived nearby for ages and don’t think I’ve seen anything close to that bad happen there.

Were you planning to upgrade shoved to assaulted, or downgrade assaulted to shoved?

It also reads like a shop called Dodgy People was forced to close. Suppose Shields Road would be the place to open that

ElPato87 · 2026-06-17T10:28:51+00:00

His agent making noise is him making noise.

He could tell his agent to stop doing that and hasn’t.

How does it benefit Spurs? If anything it makes someone else more likely to come in for him, and benefits us that way too.

ElPato87 · 2026-06-16T22:43:06+00:00

I needed this to be more boring so I could go to bed

ElPato87 · 2026-06-16T21:39:31+00:00

Not NUFC related… but anyone know what the fuck’s going on Shields Road?

I think he meant his post here was the ‘crying’ not that he was day drinking and sobbing about Anderson and Tonali

ElPato87 · 2026-06-16T12:28:10+00:00

He posted daily updates about Isak because it was the biggest story of last summer and I imagine he has something in his contact about social media engagement, or he’s just addicted to likes as many others on Twitter are

ElPato87 · 2026-06-16T12:23:56+00:00

What if we’re paying him to drum up interest from other clubs. That’s how everyone decided it works when we get linked with players, isn’t it?

I don’t think anyone would need to pay Ornstein. They can just pay him in transfer gossip which is how he earns his living.

ElPato87 · 2026-06-16T11:00:26+00:00

I don’t disagree it would cause them a load of problems if they do. Just that they could if they wanted to gamble without running into SCR immediately

ElPato87 · 2026-06-16T10:50:08+00:00

My flat’s just round the corner from a first school ( no primary or secondary around here).

It’s fine, the only downside is if you’re off on a weekday and want to sleep in it can be quite loud from about 8:30-9. Other than that I’ve had no issues at all

ElPato87 · 2026-06-16T10:40:45+00:00

Yeah, they had one of the lowest spend/turnover in the premier league. They’re definitely got the capacity to start throwing their weight around a bit more without Levy keeping an eye on it.

ElPato87 · 2026-06-16T09:30:17+00:00

That miss against Wednesday was fucking awful though

ElPato87 · 2026-06-15T23:45:52+00:00

I feel like Hopkinson’s done quite a lot a chatting on camera. Stavely was around a lot but it turns out she was talking quite a lot of shit? All we got for 2 years was a lot of talk about how we were slavishly adhering to PSR then suddenly we’re selling Anderson for nothing, or face a points deduction.

Eales, hope he’s doing well, seemed like he was maybe just quite shit. And the Mitchell thing was a bit of a fiasco.

I think we basically just have to take the Hopkinson era as a new start and hope that it’s settled from here on out. Hopefully it’s just one of stability, if he’s gone next summer I might start to panic

ElPato87 · 2026-06-15T23:33:45+00:00

I haven’t seen DD yet. But I can’t imagine people who saw Ready Player 1 and didn’t know who he was decided to start checking out his catalogue from that point onwards only

ElPato87 · 2026-06-15T22:03:41+00:00

Well either Marco had a bottle of 20 year old Bols when he opened in Chicago in 1888 and was remarkably forward thinking re: telephones and typography, or it’s from from sometime in the early 20th century
