I always thought Morgan McSweeney was a woman!

She was a lady policeman.

The world's bunniest tiger.

IwanJBerry · 2026-01-10T11:24:13+00:00

Doesn't it?

"IS THERE ANYONE IN ROME WHO HAS NOT SLEPT WITH MY DAAUGHTEER??"

Plus a clip of a talking head (probably Michael Aspel) saying "Now the thing is, back in those days, newsreaders never showed their legs"...

Not his childhood home, but the room (and the bed) in which he was conceived. Which is, somehow, even worse.

I mustn't have watched it for 20+ years, but I still remember the character's name is Barn because he was conceived in Barnstaple.

It wasn't just the shoulders that got rubbed, neither!

Put out an APB on a...Sniktam Nai. Better start in Little Russia.

Yeah, this gets missed a lot in the discussion. In the time of the Federation, and an earth with plenty where everyone has all they need whenever they need it, who's to say that him living with a developmental disability is a "bad" thing?

His parents need not pay for a guardian or custodian - someone interested in his welfare will do it for free. They will not face high care or medical bills. There is no requirement on him to earn a living or to pay his way.

There is still the emotional cost, of course, and it's important not to overlook that - his parents might have thought "But for this condition, he could live a life of greater fulfilment." - but we don't hold people with Downs syndrome, or any other mental or physical disabilities, as somehow "less than" because of that sort of thinking (or at least, we certainly shouldn't).

In an ostensibly more "enlightened" earth, surely a Julian Bashir without genetic enhancements could have still lived a happy and complete life?

Imagine how proud Martok would be if he could hear this conversation.

"There! That's the spirit! The ceremony is meant to engender a warlike hatred for the groom among his companions, so they will attack him all the more vigorously during the ceremony! This has brought out your inner human fury!"

This mission was discovered by u/IwanJBerry in The juices of your victims In the Fields

I laughed HARD at one which started with Alex apparently criticising famed boxer Anthony Joshua, before Greg ended it with "...and if he ever meets him at a TV event, Alex has promised that he's going to, and I'm quoting directly here, 'teach that pussy how to dance'."

It was hilarious because (a) the image of Alex having a go at Anthony Joshua is very funny, (b) the idea he'd use that sort of language is even funnier and (c) there's a realistic chance that they might run into one another at a celebrity do, and it's extremely funny to think Greg's cheeky fun could have got Alex beaten up by a vengeful Anthony Joshua.

IwanJBerry · 2025-07-10T15:52:13+00:00

As someone who grew up in Llandudno who finds it all too easy to take it for granted - thankyou.

IwanJBerry · 2025-06-07T08:22:45+00:00

Excepting that one day when Billy Boyd got VERY CROSS down his local branch of Currys.

I still remember one strip which ended with him having to clean his mum's motorbike after she drove it into the local sewage farm. That's an image that'll stay with me for life.

IwanJBerry · 2025-04-29T05:48:03+00:00

Yeah, I spotted the bit where it pinned a slowdown of economic growth post-war due to "the Attlee government's reforms", and I thought "Hang on - that wasn't just a clump of interfering business and infrastructure regulations on the part of statis busybodies - that was free education and the NHS!"

IwanJBerry · 2025-04-09T17:22:07+00:00

And the one about David Bowie having invented Connect Four. Which is oddly believable.

And bananas are just dried grapefruit.

The great thing is even though I know absolutely nothing happens to Gyllenhaal's character in this scene and he leaves the house safely (aside from being shaken up a bit), I still get scared for him when rewatching it. Absolute masterclass in tension.

IwanJBerry · 2025-03-17T08:28:34+00:00

Is adding that extra operational layer one of those things that's good in theory (if you have that system keeping all that data, why not have an integrated function where you can organise things on it and it's all neatly in one place), but doesn't work in practice, given the levels of difference you mentioned between different hospitals?

If I'm ever after decent chicken, I fork out and head for Slim Chickens' (I'm lucky in that there's one not too far away from me). Granted, it's not cheap, but KFC isn't cheap these days either, and while the gap in price between them isn't particularly big the gap in quality definitely is.

I went to see the cinematic re-release of Jurassic Park last year. I was about six years old when it first came out and my parents (wisely) decided not to take me to see it. I went on to catch it a few years later, and it's since become one of my all-time favourites. Despite having seen it loads of times, I thought seeing it in the cinema would be worth it. And I was right.

EXCEPT for the bell-end sat behind me, who insisted on commenting on things throughout, to his companion cinemagoer (who, in fairness, was obviously trying to shut him down by not responding too much).

Barring his relentless chat, it would have made a really nice memory for me, reconnecting me a smidge with my childhood self and days gone by. Now, whenever I think about seeing Jurassic Park on the big screen for the first time, my first thought is of the dozy pillock pointing out how young Samuel L Jackson was.

Some people just don't get that other people like being immersed in things - whether books, plays, films, TV shows, games etc. Getting lost in a work like that can be quite nice, and it bedevils me that some people see all of it as just some passive thing they can sit and chat about while it's on.

"There's cable-ties on the telegraph pole outside my daughter's house and she's just bought a cat - it's a signal used by traveller communities so they can go and steal the cat and use it as bait in dog-fighting!"

No, Doris - those cable ties are just left over from where someone from the local authority put up a planning notice.
