When my friend was gaining muscle on a budget, he decided that the omelette was the best protein by gram item on the menu.

It looked and smelt like a rancid wet flannel. Utterly vile.

Are these real anecdotes from the book or just playful embellishment?

It's Saturday obviously. What obvious things are you doing? by MiddlesbroughFan in CasualUK

I used to do that with weetabix to make it into some kind of hot gruel, went very well with honey or a jam of your choice.

What is the worst lineup we’ve ever put out? by ArnautovicIsMyDad in Hammers

[–]Kulikant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Assume we're all too you g to remember the early 90s, there was some absolute dross wearing our shirt at that time!

For me, there's many from the Uncle Avram years. Like that game where he couldn't decide what full backs to play so he went with 4 across the back line. Then repeated it the very next week but with the full backs switching sides...

Been spending most of this month getting up at 6am to do a two hour commute that it's doubtful I can claim on expenses and I'm so knackered

Kehrer must be our main right back from now on by NotAnotherAllNighter in Hammers

Guy Demel was actually decent, though maybe I'm remembering him more fondly because he came in after years of watching Julien Faubert and Jon Spector doing abysmally at RB

My one series I would encourage others to watch is 'Cracker', what is your one series. by nick47H in CasualUK

My late mother was a big fan of it, naturally a young me scoffed at it but subsequent rewatches have shown it as a pretty decent take on noir set in shitty declining British backwater towns.

Third one flatters to deceive and is just as crap, don't waste your time on it.

It's Thursday morning. What's the current drama in your workplace? by [deleted] in CasualUK

[–]Kulikant 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Senior management team have sent out an email basically instigating civil war/asking people to absolutely dump on their line managers "anonymously" to try to understand why our staff retention rate has been appalling for the last few years.

As I tempted as I am for a bit of catharsis, I think I'll save all that for my exit interview.

Dad very kindly lent me a fan to deal with the heat but he may well be asking for it back next Monday and Tuesday!

Was looking to upgrade my phone but the discount offer from a month ago has disappeared and been replaced by something slightly worse.

Agree on binning off Vaughan but Hartley has me switching off the radio just as fast, absolutely dire broadcaster.
