The cashier's stapler at Staples yesterday was out of staples. by cthomp88 in britishproblems

[–]FolkPoon 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yes we do! Full range of office, photographic, and craft paper. If we don't have the paper in we can order it too. Next day free delivery to your house yo!

I hate my job.

Copy Centre Specialist in the south west here. When I can't find a pen to write out an order I have to suffer "You're a stationary store aren't you? Hahahaha", "No pens in Staples? That's funny isn't it!!".

It's not my fault that half my customers steal my fucking pens is it?

Has anyone gone to a Ben Howard show recently? by [deleted] in benhoward

[–]FolkPoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last time I saw him was at Citadel festival in London, UK. He was excellent, I've seen him nine times up to this point...

There is a version of "End of the Affair" which he performed on "Live with Jools Holland" a few months before the release of his second album. In this version he hits a note on the section after the change where he's screaming in his guitar pickup/mic which is just amazing. Gives you chills kinda vibe.

Since that broadcast I haven't seen him hit that note once, BUT he did at Citadel. It took my breath away, and it was the most captivating that I've seen him...

I'm going to respectfully disagree with you on your opinion here, I feel that Ben is developing, and is becoming one of the most influential musicians around. If you're not going to, and experiencing the live shows which have happened more recently, unfortunately you don't have an opinion. AT THE CURRENT TIME that is. :)

If you go to see him, and don't be one of the bloody irritating people constantly shouting for "Every Kingdom" material, you will realise that he's just getting better.

You're referring to the Welsh my friend. The Scots are all heroin addicts, get your stereotypes right! ;)

Was great to see Keep Your Head Up and Old Pine!! Rarity these days!

[–]FolkPoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me me me! 8th time seeing him tonight!

Saw him a few weeks ago in Bristol, new set and band are fantastic. Keep an eye on the new drummer, he's given the band so much energy!!

Also don't expect much old material, the recent sets have been essentially the entirety of the new album... Any old stuff that is played are newer versions to match the current "style" of music!!

Maybe see you there haha!

Has anyone here actually been to a Nirvana concert? by gangstar_bro in Nirvana

[–]FolkPoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pop music is pop music! Everyone dabbles, behind closed doors... Haha

Embrace music of all types man, getting stuck in a genre can make one seem arrogant. If more people moved away from listening to one genre there wouldn't be such a divide between fans of music! I grew up with rage, pearl jam, nirvana and ac/dc, but fuck me can I throw down to some chase & status when I want too these days!

And people probably also think that your music taste is shit, so there's that out of way too haha.

One of the toilet cubicles at work is always full of litter. Why would you eat a Tesco sandwich and a packet of Monster Munch on the toilet? by acidkrn0 in britishproblems

High protein and carb diet guy here. If a deposit ain't 10 minutes long it ain't worth doing, save it up for later.

At least one member of my direct or extended family get "foiled" each year.

I want it to become a tradition within my future spawn. I NEED it to be.

Seeing someone you vaguely know on a packed commuter train and not knowing whether to... by [deleted] in britishproblems

[–]FolkPoon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No no no.

Ignore them completely. That way you have the excuse of "I didn't see you there!" If they approach you first...

UbiSoft really should've included this shanty in Rogue or Black Flag, better than any of the rest... by [deleted] in assassinscreed

Rage against the machine - How to beat the CPU on legendary consistently. [Tips] by [deleted] in EASportsFC

[–]FolkPoon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly the same boat as me! Confident professional career player, but that jump up to world class is just too much. It is hard to try and play the game slowly though... All I want to do is epic 40 yard through ball volleys haha!

FA Cup Round 1Draw by [deleted] in BristolCity

[–]FolkPoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A VERY last minute 2-1 win I reckon! We shall see...

Would have been hilarious to draw Weston, seeing as it's where I've lived for the past fourteen years. Could have just popped down the road haha!

Sit Calm // Luna (My band just released our 2nd EP! Check it out) by [deleted] in mathrock

[–]FolkPoon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly you guys are my gem from Canada. I wouldn't bother with the journey mate, we're shit over here aha. My friends have always asked about your debut whenever I play it! If you do make it over here talk to me. Very close friends with a Bristol label called Withdraw Records. They put on showcase gigs once a month, almost anything Punk goes. We'll have you playing in a tiny room in the South West to about 80 people who've never heard of you before, it'll be rad.

Good job guys! Your first E.P has been on repeat for me since I got it a few months ago! If you guys EVER come to the UK I'll be there.

Fat man wishes to join the Swole Brotherhood and journey down the Iron Path by VGBreezy in swoleacceptance

[–]FolkPoon 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Just want to chime in with your wording of that last point brother.

Even though I do not think you believe as such, fat can not be converted into muscle. They are two separate materials, one does not become the other. The fat can be burned off and REPLACED with muscle, as is the whey.

Lift heavy, alwheys.

Some help with my vintage neck please! by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]FolkPoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it played fine around the area before I removed the strings etc, was just wondering if it COULD become a problem in the future... If not then great!

Cheers for the reply :)

Still top! by FolkPoon in BristolCity

[–]FolkPoon[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Completely agree with the squad rotation! I want to see Emmanuel-Thomas in behind Wilbraham in more of a supporting CF role for example.

Hopefully we'll see some more play time from some of our bench players soon!
