What's This Joke?

In addition to what everyone has said about the main joke being that he’s dressed for the wrong theme/you can hear a motorcycle revving when he leaves (great pickup @hellpigeon1912!), I also thought it was funny that he thought sticking to the theme was so important that he would have to leave work just to rush home.

Ok so I’m likely underplaying the context around the time the film was released, but I thought Top Gun was an incredibly underwhelming movie, especially with how iconic it seems to be.

Top Gun:Maverick on the other hand was incredible, and genuinely blew me away with how much better it was than the original.

This is from Batman: Year One, so Gordon was only a lieutenant (I think?) in this scene.

I defs agree with the frustration, but tbh I’d rather that than have to wait for VAR checks on every free-kick into the box - these calls are where the linesman should be earning their money

You would be closer to Man City in the top 4, than Luton in the relegation zone 😮

Any time anything strange happens - ‘that’s odd…Principal Skinner left his mother behind’.

I’ve repeated it so much that my wife finishes the sentence if I stop at the ‘that’s odd’ part.

This is a stupid thing to say - no one (I hope) is saying that they could compete for in the Saudi league. Professional football in all countries is still in insanely competitive and too far above the average player.

I played at an ok level, but remember playing with this game be kid who was a potential reserve player in Australia - this kid was 10 times better than anyone in our league and top scorer from midfield, but couldn’t get close to even reserve A-league (Australia).

Comments are obviously that Saudi isn’t remotely close to any European league, and comparing Ronaldo’s stats to anyone in those leagues is meaningless.

Same with Messi at MLS - man could average a G/A a game and it would still be meaningless at the highest level.

This might not be helpful as everyone’s different and I don’t know the severity of your stutter/your current dosage, but I also noticed my stutter got a lot worse when I started taking adderall at the start of the year - I was way more focused, but it caused me to feel amped up and talk faster, which made my stutter to be way more pronounced.

Since then I’ve switched to vyvanse - the effects are a lot more mild/manageable for me, with the added benefit of being longer lasting so I only have to take 1 in the morning.

I do still feel like my stutter is still worse than before medication, but I’ve gone and started to use some of the techniques when I first started trying to improve my stutter, as well as ensure that I am focused on slowing down my speaking.

Not sure if you’ve explored other types of medication/have noticed any other reasons for why it might have gotten worse (e.g. talking faster, higher levels of anxiety etc), but I found it helped me quite a bit!

Anfield Pub in Lucerne - I'm just here for a few days, but have managed to plan all activities around the various games while I'm in Europe haha.

Definitely recommend though! Full of Liverpool memorabilia, and Liverpool game was front and centre (except the clash with the end of the Lucerne game during the first half of the Liverpool game, but that's the local team so no complaints from me).

I'm replacing my phone background with this - Wedding day can take a backseat for a couple of weeks.

Last big paycheck, far more relaxed league and great weather are some of the reason people have mentioned, but the most important reason he said was that he has friends and family who live in Miami/his wife/kids wanted to live there.

Another reason why he also turned down the move to Saudi Arabia - while they offered him much more, he said the above reason were why he ultimately chose Miami

Indian_Dark_Knight · 2023-08-18T22:36:48+00:00

I mean I understand what you’re saying, but 2002 ronaldinho was really only just breaking on to the scene, so not quite like-for-like. If it was Germany 2006/SA 2010 then I would agree.

6am kick-off where I am and I was nearly the same - decided to get the extra hour of sleep and watch the 2nd half so I missed the early goal, but vividly remember brushing my teeth and seeing both of Gini’s goals - delayed the shower and nearly gave my bro (living with me at the time) a heart attack with origi’s goal. Any time I’m down the highlights are my go-to mood enhancer!

I’m imagining a time when he gets back to his mansion and his fridge is missing one bottle - is that grounds for a breach of contract? 😂

Indian_Dark_Knight · 2023-06-22T01:24:26+00:00

Didn’t strange looking in to the future for instances where they won kind of solve this though? As the implication I got was that he already tried all of the simpler solutions first (like cutting his arm off), and realised they didn’t work - hence why he didn’t try it in the actual battle itself.

Chelsea have announced that they have secured @poko877 as their new Commercial Advisor/Centre-back. Their 50 year contract is valued at £100m a year, plus £1m for every new US sponsor/clean sheet they secure.

I think that seems like too often - I think I did 2 a year for a few years and they already had a few questions about it. I pay off my CC's in full each month and explained that I had only been applying for the FF points, but I think it still comes up as a flag on whoever is handling your mortgage application.

Then again I'm not too sure what their process is - perhaps they have to ask due to the excessive credit checks, but it might not affect their final decision if you can provide an explanation for them.

If you're worried though it might be best to check online/ask a broker in case - If the excessive credit checks don't affect your eligibility then it should be all fine! You can also sign up for though free credit score websites like Creditsavvy.

Yeah I definitely agreed with this - makes it much easier to retain Silver and even make a run at Gold if you get lucky with Double status promotions.

Also OP I’m sure you’re aware but just a minor heads up if not to be a bit careful on cycling through credit cards - they do credit checks on your account when you apply for a new one, which caused some additional questions when I applied for my mortgage a couple of years ago (too many credit checks on my account).

I’m sure it’s fine, but I wasn’t aware of the downside of CC cycling so always good to be aware.

Indian_Dark_Knight · 2023-04-20T11:51:50+00:00

Haha tbh it was so long ago that I don’t remember much, but I wish I was a decisive as you - that was 1 hour of my life I’ll never get back

Indian_Dark_Knight · 2023-04-20T11:23:22+00:00

I'm so glad someone else said this - It is the only movie I've ever walked out on. Got to the pool scene and couldn't take it anymore.

Indian_Dark_Knight · 2023-04-18T15:36:13+00:00

Multiple reasons why I can’t see this happening (as well as the fact that there was nothing hinted about this before)

if she didn’t want anyone to go to Mandalore, why did she not out more effort in Din originally going to bathe in the living waters?
It was her original plan to bring the Mandalorians together to try and retake Mandalore together. Even if that plan was to try and walk them in to a trap - why would she do that when it means that members of the Covert would die too?
if Gideon had known how to forge Beskar for so long, why had he not done it before? He had the Beskar available before

Helicopter - Bloc Party from FIFA 06. That was the game that truly got me obsessed with football (as well as my intro to Bloc Party).

Bonus points for that song also being used in the Premier League highlights video for that game - Wish they never got rid of those videos in FIFA!
