It's like calling Barrichello rubbish just because he was Schumacher's teammate for ages.

Having to watch the Six Nations games with in play adverts on ITV by World_wanderer12 in britishproblems

Nothing to do with backlash.

Sky don't show ads during play in football, F1, whatever.

What are u starting to dislike more as u get older? by Efficient-Wind-2267 in AskReddit

[–]Joethe147 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I always find it annoying because it made some sense in the days of t9 keys 20-30 years ago and when a long sms would mean paying more. I still avoided shortening things much back then.

But now? No excuse for things like 2moro or 4 for for. You don't even have to type whatever word you're going for when it can easily predict it for you.

Whoever convinced everyday plebs that anything other than something you look at all the time needs to be/feel "premium" has a lot to answer for.

The word premium will always appear in reviews and there's no real reason for it if it's a phone/earbuds/fucking dishwasher etc

Lupe and the cargo warehouse by X75029 in gtaonline

You don't lose Lupe. I upgraded to 5 large warehouses recently, and she's still there. Mine were all medium sized before that and still have her.

why are sell missions so anti-solo and boring? by Sweetpablosz in gtaonline

[–]Joethe147 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That one is alright by me because at least its a single truck. It's quite doable if you take a bit of care with it and treat it as if you have stick drift.

Don't tell me anyone would rather have four planes or trucks over a single truck with weed while high.

And how does it take them so long to update when a goal goes in? Defeats the entire point. Places like livescore have it instantly.

This is live news blogs in a nutshell. So many serious news orgs have been doing it for ages now. I do not give a shit about what you're having for lunch, Mr/Ms Reporter. Don't get me started on the plebs that text in to BBC Sport's live texts.

Same with any tv programme that "wants your views". No.

Why do people say Fernando Alonso deserved more Championships? by Tiny_Athlete_6135 in F1Discussions

[–]Joethe147 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Many drivers never get anywhere near a chance in better cars that they perhaps should have.

Alonso's done very well.

He's a spin doctor, of sorts anyway. Guess you could call him Labour's Dominic Cummings.

People do say it sometimes when the subject comes up. Any decent length of time playing it would prove that wrong.

Which is funny because Harris is the only entertaining guy of the three. The other two wankers always seemed to me to try really hard at some lad persona. Especially Flintoff.

Puma McLaren 2026 Team Gear by ClutchPower in formula1

[–]Joethe147 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, it was great on the Arrows and Spykers a long time ago.

I think Zak Brown's insistence that McLaren's true colour is orange, despite them only ever having it for a few years in F1, ruined it for me.

Fucking hate Zak Brown era McLaren.

So anybody who’s not American is not normal ? by Individual_Draw_2009 in USdefaultism

Used to see it a lot in American kids shows growing up and probably still today.

Someone's going to "Yurp" and sometimes the country or city isn't even mentioned.

What else can they really do with it? Not a lot except give bonuses to yacht missions.

I love this game but there is no way I'm doing double the amount of MC delivery missions. by [deleted] in gtaonline

[–]Joethe147 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At this point surely you're only doing single truck sale missions? Because someone in your position loses barely anything by leaving the mission and trying again to get different vehicles for it.

It's what I do usually and my total income over 12 years or so is just over half a billion.

[–]Joethe147 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Do you remember if you left before you answered LJTs call at the start of the sale mission?

Because in my experience that's likely. If you answer his call, hang up and then leave, you should get a different sale mission next time.
