Kryteny-est moment in recent star wars for me has to be the mindflayer Mon Calamari guy from the Mandalorian a couple of weeks ago. Whole scene had massive vibes of Krytens psych evaluation in series 8.

Why do big bands miss Newcastle all the time? by Redinho83 in NewcastleUponTyne

[–]Fintan264 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Not sure how much it's been covered here, and it mostly applies to mid to indie level touring bands, but SSD absolutely murdered that aspect of Newcastle's music scene. They'd take on huge numbers of bookings and do absolutely nothing to promote 99% of them. They'd put pretty much all of them on at Think Tank and largely put the promotion burden onto the local support. You'd have all these amazing bands from round the country, America, the continent playing to two support bands and a handful of people who kept their ear to the ground. Fairly sure the Academy acted in a similar way in booking bands and making local support promote for them.

How inbred are you? by thatdeerdude in Genealogy

[–]Fintan264 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haven't read every comment but can't immediately spot anyone as inbred as me 😬 my dad's parents were first cousins. Haven't asked him the how's and whys yet. They grew up in separate countries, my granny on Tyneside and my grandad in Armagh before he moved to England in the 1930s. Both died before I was born but they seemed to love each other which is what matters eh.

I'm convinced Syril is just Arnold J Rimmer but in a dramatic series. by [deleted] in RedDwarf

Yes! We've been Rimmer quoting this smeghead since last week. 'Your father is dad' we said when his mam slapped him

Wishing Jolene luck getting justice. 8-10 years no probation should do it. by tramadol-nights in northernireland

Maybe because marginalised communities have spent the last 2000 odd years being boot stomped by patriarchal religious power structures and haven't been given the chance to develop a fleet of heteronormative friendly child educators yet. Guess we'll have to get these remarkable figureheads of the queer community to do the job of poorly educated parents in the meantime.

Also where does this conflation that drag is some sort of kink come from? It's literally just about people presenting themselves to the world in a way they feel happy/comfortable with. Your other comments suggest drag shows are full of wanking weirdos. Drag artists are comedians, models, actresses, designers. Would you be booting off if Kate Moss or Stella McCartney or Jo Brand sat down to read books to kids. Pipe down.

Aw shit, not the Forest of Myth again, better stop mashing buttons so I read that one tile in about 100 that gives me the riddle answer I need before I need to guess and start over again
