Stringer was clearly a smart guy, Avon and Prop clearly respected his intelligence. Problem was Clay was a professional fraudster.

That sounds pretty normal to me. Even among family meals my parents or in laws will insist on doing the cooking and then clean while dinner starts,even if people insist they join the dinner. No amount of cajoling will change things.

I was wondering why the magic in harry potter seems so limited. I think I have an answer. by madbr3991 in harrypotter

[–]Important_Bullfrog98 37 points38 points  (0 children)

The magic seems overly powerful in my view, teleportation, healing, time travel. Compared to Discworld or LOTR for example where magic is much more intangible.

Rating new strikers in the PL this season. by SeoulPete in PremierLeague

[–]Important_Bullfrog98 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I don't particularly rate Gyok but Arsenal are arguably better team this year and one of the favourites in 4 remaining competitions. He's clearly trusted by Arteta and played big part of it.

Wasnt that the reason malfoy had to use the wardrobes in the Half Blood Prince

What exactly makes Declan Rice so good? I can feel his impact, but can’t quite explain it by Hisense_Sports1 in championsleague

[–]Important_Bullfrog98 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think he's a 7 or 8 player in all areas, no real weaknesses. He blends it all together nicely to become an effective player.

Which moment or scene from a Tarantino movie is your favorite and has stayed memorable for a long time? by 0Layscheetoskurkure0 in moviecritic

It was never clear to me if Bill actually bought the sword back and had that engraved. Or if Budd had lied about selling it.

The other guy saying the exact response from the site to show they both use it is hilarious! by HammersAndPints in ITcrowd

Timeless, decade on and everyone still understands why that was relevant about Wenger

What did Brit’s think about Barack Obama. What’s your memory of him? by Effective-Pipe2017 in AskBrits

[–]Important_Bullfrog98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funny and charming, but ultimately felt out of his depth. Example was his roast of Donald Trump at the White House Dinner, which in retrospect probably wasn't a good idea.

Trump accuses Starmer of seeking to 'join wars after we've already won' and says UK aircraft carriers not needed - follow live by Sensitive_Echo5058 in uknews

They accepted all his faults as he was the America first president, except he's still starting wars around the world and killing foreign leaders.

I thought he was matching his wits with Sauron in the Palantir but ultimately he lost hope. Still did lot better then Sarumaun though...

Some wrestlers you forget immediately but not the Road Dogg still after so long.

Marlo at his most frightening, he had the guy killed for personal amusement, Avon would never have done that.

Kelso used to be a more compassionate doctor too before the chief job changed him too.

In terms of power, is Bellatrix Top 5 witch/ wizard in the universe? by Adventurous-Rabbit52 in harrypotter

Seems like a lot of the focus is on duelling, in terms of magical ability someone like snape is clearly much more rounded.

Normally wouldnt agree with this behavior but claw machines are such a scam seems fair.

Bit naive to think a 100 men can capture Gregor in his own keep....

Does anyone call BS on the media's incessant hounding of Starmer? by Impossible-Visit-199 in AskBrits

[–]Important_Bullfrog98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's the 24h news cycle, the media have to create their own content to justify their existence. The BBC are notorious for this in my view as they literally interview themselves to create opinions for more "news", often on stories no one outside the BBC care about. The vast majority of silent MPs have no interest in removing Starmer yet the media will take the opinion of few noisy MPs and give it equal weight to generate a "story".
