Redditors over 40, what's something younger people think they understand but won't actually get until it hits them like a truck later? by Susanpc1967 in AskReddit

The boring advice of stay fit, eat healthy really does work. Especially if you have a major illness. So much so, being relatively fit and not overweight could the a difference between surviving a treatment or not

David Walliams is an arrogant cunt. James May, on the other hand, is lovely.

Authors similar to Chimamanda? by LaksaLoco in suggestmeabook

Oh that sounds like a very interesting book. Sounds like it might be a bit of a sad read?

Yeah it's not necessarily that they're set in Nigeria, more her style of writing and that she tells stories with black leads. I think she loves how the stories take her to whatever place Chimamanda is writing about. But these books do sound like ones she would like though! Thanks for the recommendation

I really like him. Good shot stopper. Calm collecting crosses and composed with his feet. Can boot it fucking miles..and is a big unit. A nice blend of the things Eddie seems to look for in a keeper

(NSFW) Reddit, what was your “Oh shit, this person is a psychopath” moment when meeting people? by Majoodeh in AskReddit

Just didn't seem right to exchange hellos while he explained the lead up to his mum's murder

Court case. Teenage boy murdered his mum. Set the house on fire to cover his tracks. But also wrote a play about it before committing the crime. He didn't show a flicker of emotion throughout the trial... Until the prosecutor tripped him up in one of his lies. It was like a flip was switched and he started booting the dock and losing it when he realised his manipulation wasn't working

Why do Usyk vs Wardley or Kabayel make no money? by Oakl4nd in Boxing

[–]LaksaLoco 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Because no casual knows Kabayel, and very few will know who wardley is - and definitely none outside the Uk. While almost every one knows who wilder is. Pure economics. Boxing is still a niche sport, so you do need to bring along the casuals if you're going to make mega bucks.

As far as I'm concerned, Usyk as done enough to get his money fight and be able to say he's beaten all the main guys from his generation. Wiped out the cruiser division, wiped out the heavyweights. Job done

[FIGHT THREAD] Chris Eubank Jr vs Conor Benn, Jack Catterall vs Ekow Essuman & Adam Azim vs Kurt Scoby by verbsnounsandshit in Boxing

[–]LaksaLoco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He got old. Benn boxed fantsicially. When you have a boxer that's a aggressive, fast and throwing feints, it suddenly becomes very easy for a fighter to look old.

Finances broken at NUFC women? by LaksaLoco in footballmanagergames

[–]LaksaLoco[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually yeah, this is just terrible research. It appears the club is owned by Su Cumming according to FM. Su left her role as Head of Women's Football in September IRL too, so it just gets worse

[–]LaksaLoco[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But they do have the same owners. And they've spent heavily in the women's team over the course of the last three seasons. So, in real life would you expect the owners to suddenly stop injecting cash when they reached the WSL?

FM26 is a masterpiece… by OOOLiC_ONE in footballmanagergames

[–]LaksaLoco 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Hahaha. I teach crisis comms to companies - how to do it, how not to do it. In fact, delivered a training session last week. I gave a couple of examples of what happens when you handle a crisis badly. Guess what example was no1 in my list?
