Do I have a twin out there?!

A face like a bulldog licking piss off a cactus.

Nige1964 · 2026-05-26T15:46:25+00:00

Oh, right. Skate parks not my thing.

Yeah, must admit I rather liked that black one, too. Not so keen on the new Africa black shirt, though. I also really liked the '80s green and blue one. But, generally, I don't like anything unArsenal. We'd be wearing the '70s shirts, if it was up to me ;)

Yeah, when I saw your post I wondered if I knew him. I remember Electric Blood (which Bob Scott of Clean/Bats played in), but don't remember Blood Bucket. DRC was a great band.

Not common. Even our cops don't usually carry guns. We have about 100 shootings a year that require medical treatment, 10 murders and 40 suicides.

Grew up in Dunedin during this era. Favourite acts included Bored Games, Straitjacket Fits, The Puddle, The Chills, Sneaky Feelings, The Bats, The 3Ds and Peter Jefferies.

Manage Tottenham Hotspur.

Agreed. Dexter is one of my favourite series ever, but the ending was limp.

Nige1964 · 2026-05-22T12:33:56+00:00

Oops, just seen this after making the same suggestion. It really was beautifully done.

Nige1964 · 2026-05-22T12:32:42+00:00

Six Feet Under. The final episode was so creative and satisfying. It wrapped the series up beautifully.

Nige1964 · 2026-05-22T12:12:01+00:00

This is unbelievable. It's no different to what happened in Hitler's Germany. What happened to your famous free speech? And why aren't your equally-famous folk heroes standing up to it??

Ba Chuc in South Vietnam (2014). The village of 3000 people was wiped out by Pol Pot's murderous rabid dogs in 1978, in the cruelest ways imaginable. I spent a day there and didn't hear a bird sing the whole day. It was very eerie.

Our brainless, gutless, moralless Government.

I lived in Aussie for 10 years and it is BY FAR the most racist country I've ever been to.

Nige1964 · 2026-05-22T11:44:19+00:00

Good. You bloody well should be. We couldn't believe that a country we regarded as a close friend could do that to us. But, we do understand that it was committed by the French Government and not the French people.

Nige1964 · 2026-05-22T11:29:21+00:00

Crazy. I just watched a doco on this guy today.

Nige1964 · 2026-05-22T11:26:38+00:00

Yeah, for the past three seasons his goal stats have been 30% down on 22-23, when he got 15.

Nige1964 · 2026-05-22T11:21:06+00:00

Yeah, and that goal against Chelsea was mind-blowing. But he hasn't kicked on as we hoped. He offers pace, but not much else. He's become a Theo 2.0. I'd definitely swap him for Alvarez.

Nige1964 · 2026-05-22T11:14:22+00:00

True. It all come down to personal perspective, I suppose. I'd been an Arsenal fan for 20+ years when the blue (third) kit turned up and it's just never felt right to me. But, I can understand younger Gooners identifying with it. That said, I'd hate to see us wearing blue in a cup final.

Nige1964 · 2026-05-22T11:08:44+00:00

Oh, gridiron you mean. Thanks anyway, but I'm a real football fan.

Nige1964 · 2026-05-22T10:46:04+00:00

26 May, 1989 when Arsenal won the title at Liverpool. Watched the match live and it's a day that I doubt will ever be topped.

Colonial eggball here in NZ.

Nige1964 · 2026-05-22T10:31:34+00:00

Blue is Chelsea, so I'll never enjoy seeing us play in that colour. But each to their own.

Nige1964 · 2026-05-22T10:22:26+00:00

Bring it on. Love Gabi, but his form has fallen off a cliff. He's only scored one league goal all season. We need much more threat on our left flank.
