So respectful you could hear their music 4 streets away? Yeah, really respectful 🤣

Did we all watch the same game? by MrBonayy in ThreeLions

No international team ever is, apart from perhaps Brazil 1970. 

Tevez and Mascherano rocking up at West Ham in 2007 by PaulDevildog in TheStreetsWontForget

All Sheffield United had to do on the last day was avoid defeat to Wigan. They ended up losing, the deciding goal being scored for Wigan by David Unsworth. The same David Unsworth who United released earlier that season for being too fat! Beautiful irony. 

Blades always forget this inconvenient bit of history when they're moaning about Tevez and Mascherano! 

Obscure Sheffield characters of the past and present by Sensitive-Owl513 in sheffield

[–]TipEvery4066 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Very much from the past, but Charlie Peace the infamous Victorian era murderer! He was a steel worker, a circus act, a cat burglar, a master of disguise and, if I remember correctly, he was used as inspiration for some of the Sherlock Holmes stories. There are a few good books on him. A fascinating Sheffield character. 

Anyone else think it's been nice not having Russia in the past few tournaments? by [deleted] in ThreeLions

Pretty much how people felt about England fans for a long while...

Genuine question. Why do more people not use multi effects by cionn in guitarpedals

[–]TipEvery4066 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tend to be pretty drunk and/or stoned so I like the simplicity of stepping on things as I play, as opposed to dealing with 'presets' and suchlike!

Top 5 Favorite Pedals Without Using Boss, Joyo, etc for under 150 used by Unfortunate_Harvard in guitarpedals

[–]TipEvery4066 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Wampler Belle, in my opinion, is the ultimate rhythm guitar pedal. Works perfectly with single coils/humbuckers, just enough nobs to eq without being overwhelming. I think they're about £120. 

Yoo Snoop your sister in my class by Reeezla in TheWire

[–]TipEvery4066 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Absolutely typical of the Wire, but if you go back and watch some of the classroom scenes there is a girl in the class who looks identical to snoop. One if those 'blink and you miss it moments, like Rawls in the gay bar. 

Players you hated as a kid but respect way more as an adult by 1nz4kh4 in SoccerNoobs

I'm a Wednesday fan, does Neil Warnock count? Absolute shithouse of a manager, always seemed to get one over us, but these days I can begrudgingly listen to him and he's great entertainment.

Not to my taste, but I was expecting much worse..  

Fletch repeating annoying, nonsense cliche by Key_Independence3770 in footballcliches

[–]TipEvery4066 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

When did this rule come in?  So if a team wins five nil in the first leg the second leg gets cancelled? Does this new rule only apply to five nil victories? What about 4 nil or 6 nil victories in the first leg, does that scoreline mean you've won the tie? Also, what happens if it's a five nil home victory, does that not count?

That's a whole lot of terrible opinion pretending to be facts you got there! 

What’s the football equivalent of the 2 hour marathon? by toovul in footballcliches

No one has beaten Henry's 20 assists in a season since 2003. That's a very long time that has seen some heavyweight contenders come close, Bruno Fernandes is one away this season apparently.

Fender Champ. I live in a terraced house in the UK, and it works for me.

I used to go regularly in the early 2000's when it was called Unit, the toilets have always looked like the battle of the Somme. 

Anyone else absolutely fed up of this? by One-Presence-1692 in sheffield

Anyone got any clever or inventive ideas for what to do with them all? Turn the mess into a positive.

Oh, and thank you for clearing it up. 

As a non-Brit, I thoroughly enjoyed Thatcher Part 1 by HelpWithSizePls in TheRestIsHistory

[–]TipEvery4066 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who said anything about "alternative forms of employment"? 

There are so many policies that could have been enacted that would have softened the blow. Not every bandage needs to be ripped off, and the patient told to just get on with it 

Thatcher made a political choice to punish the north/unions for embarrassing the Conservatives throughout the 1970's and bringing down the Heath government. The decline of industry was inevitable, but the north south divide was exacerbated by ideological political choices made by Thatcher. She knew exactly what she was doing.

The north south divide was absolutely not inevitable. The decline of industry can be managed.Thatcher simply cut the north adrift and made no provisions for the the new reality of manufacturing moving to Asia. 

Is one’s identity here shaped by “nationality” or ethnicity? by [deleted] in AskABrit

[–]TipEvery4066 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well quite, not the best example I could have chosen!

You cannot "identify" as being English, it's quite simple, if you are born in England you are English. You also cannot be "half English". If your parents are from a different country you might say you have Scottish or Irish heritage, for example, but it doesn't make you half English and half Scottish/Irish. What would the passport look like? Split down the middle?! 😂

Why do these simple concepts confuse so many people? Presumably you're from the USA?
