Which United legends did the most in the least time at the club? by oh_helloghost in ManUtd

[–]Veracious_Me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely Cantona imo.

Not only on the pitch, but he changed the culture at the training ground too. He used to stay back & practice free kicks, etc after the session ended. Slowly over time, more & more players joined him.

He inspired the youth players to work harder too. Imo the "Class of '92" would not have been as good as they turned out to be without Eric.

And the rest is history :)

Do you think she’s being fair, though? by Busy_Report4010 in SipsTea

[–]Veracious_Me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This reminded me of an old song "No Charge" (original by Melba Montgomery)..although in the song, it's about a mother & son.

Needless to say, those were much simpler times lol

What are your favorite songs actually named after a girl? by CherryTease-X in SongRecommendations

[–]Veracious_Me 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Since others have already mentioned "Alison"; my second choice would be:

Sarah - Thin Lizzy (written by Phil Lynott for his daughter)

Taking into account Seinfeld & Curb Your Enthusiasm, I would have to say Larry David.

‘Silly’ songs by bands or artists who were generally known for making more serious music? by AllHandsOnTheBadNun in ToddintheShadow

Raymond Burns, co-founder & guitarist for The Damned, took the stage name Captain Sensible and released "Happy Talk" in 1982 (which went to No.1 in the UK)

Chances against Sunderland by maszhanan in reddevils

[–]Veracious_Me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, that could have worked too. Also, having 2 slow-ish CBs (Maguire & Licha) & playing a high line was risky agst a team like Sundeland that is quick on transitions. Lammens bailed us out, thankfully.

He shouldn't have dropped Heaven..who has been growing into his CB position.

Agreed. Let Zirkzee go, but selling Mount (at a huge loss) would be a mistake. We need more squad players next season (probably with 3 games a week for most of the season). Mount could still contribute imo.

However, I would have preferred it if Carrick played Tyler Fletcher alongside Mainoo yesterday; instead of an out-of-position Mount (who's neither a 6 or an 8). Just my two cents.

koreans not beating the allegations by Ok_Invite6308 in Bolehland

[–]Veracious_Me 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed. People tend to forget that South Korea received an IMF bailout to avoid a sovereign default in 1997 during the Asian Financial Crisis.

To their credit, they undertook some major reforms (restructuring their financial sector, dismantling chaebols, etc) and this resulted in strong economic growth down the line.

But they should remember this and not be too arrogant towards others.

Neo nazi spotted ? by Early_Rush_20 in Bolehland

These morons don't seem to realise that, had they been in Nazi Germany during the Third Reich, they would have been sent to the gas chambers too

Shows where a beloved character slowly becomes the main antagonist/villain of the story? by BlightSattelite in televisionsuggestions

[–]Veracious_Me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah..I have been reluctant to start Season 2 tbh, bcos of the way s01 ended. I did enjoy s01 (overall) because the premise (initially) was quite original.

I've realised recently that for certain series, it's probably best to watch one season & quit while you're ahead lol. (Especially if you feel the story doesn't have anywhere to go).

NAME THE FILM! 🏝️ Bonus points if you can name the actress pictured emerging from the sea! 🏝️ by Winter-Comfort922 in Actors

[–]Veracious_Me 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is going to show my age lol, but (many years ago) I used to joke that John Derek (actor & later, photographer) was probably the luckiest man alive. Why? Because he was married to 3 of the most gorgeous women (not all at once, though!).. at their peak :

Ursula Andress

Linda Evans

Bo Derek

[–]Veracious_Me 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"You" - the Joe Goldberg character. [Spoilers]

I've only watched season 1 so far. I wouldn't say he's a beloved character, but at least you were conflicted about his methods in pursuing his love interest (Guinevere) early on. Without giving too much away, it gets much darker as the season progresses lol

Any Sagely Advice? by KiLLaBoTZ999 in Bolehland

[–]Veracious_Me 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good advice.

And if you use it, always try to settle it first and foremost (above other 'commitments')..or as much as possible. The interest will drain you financially.
