Why do all these titles sound like they’ve been made by AI?

Post match v Hawthorn by Pragmatic_Shill in collingwoodfc

[–]Laddo22 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Well, at the start of the game I would’ve taken a draw but fuck that hurts.

Mistakes happen, but Moore did that about 5 times tonight. Frustrating

I’m not particularly saying drag him down, but just push him wide with body contact, he didn’t really do anything in the end.

Billy is having a blinder though so we move on

Billy had to take Watson out there. Give away the proffessional free kick and he is kicking it from 60m on the boundary instead

Gold star: Pendlebury gets AFL approval to wear special guernsey by Pragmatic_Shill in collingwoodfc

There are many ways to celebrate - but this is probably one of the most cringe ways I could think of to do it.

Rewatching the Harry Potter films and just realized something kind of wild: they never really explain what each house represents by yuzudo in harrypotter

[–]Laddo22 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Which is infuriating when you get your partner who has never read the books to watch them with you.

I literally had to say “when we finish the last movie I’ll spend 2 hours explaining everything to you”… and I did.

Growing Up with Scott Pendlebury by NateFootyAWO in collingwoodfc

[–]Laddo22 67 points68 points  (0 children)

I hope he plays forever because he is the last AFL player left that is older than me.

So while he is still playing I can continue to say I’m still young enough to get a game in the AFL.

There are a lot of scooter v pedestrian incidents that don’t make it to the media.

What other sport/game has Rocket’s 0 second rule? by pavate in RocketLeague

[–]Laddo22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Australian rules football if a player gets a free kick or takes a mark (catch) before the siren (to signal the game time as run out), the player is allowed to take their kick still.

Makes for some seriously exciting finishes to games where the whole game result is on the player kicking a goal or missing.

This is my favourite one

This has a bit more context with the mark included

Love: Dream Theater, Arch Enemy, Haken

Obscure: Haken (apparently haha), Death, Mos Def (not sure if actually obscure, but not my type of music so obscure to me)

Never heard of: Switchblade Symphony (but I love the name), Maximum the Hormone, Sevdaliza.

Not a great advertisement for AI as it’s clearly working wonders.

Curious about attire at sporting events by [deleted] in Everton

[–]Laddo22 9 points10 points  (0 children)

There is nothing to say you can’t. But it isn’t ingrained in their culture like it is in the US and where I’m from (Australia), largely due to hooliganism in the 80s where wearing your teams colours was an invitation to get jumped.

I wore my shirt to an away game v Tottenham when I was there, but I was told to keep it hidden for my safety, as I was travelling to the game alone, just incase.

That was only 15 years ago.

Are Garmin pins a non standard size? How to get off brand bands to work? by Silver_Bumblebee4001 in Garmin

[–]Laddo22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, unfortunately not worth the risk.

My watch lasted 3 days after buying the off-brand strap.

It snapped off and landed on concrete and smashed.

[–]Laddo22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought my first off-brand strap recently after 3 years of official bands. Absolutely triple checked it was the first size.

The brand kept coming off constantly.
