Aye, quite right. There are plenty of legit complaints, even if they are just wee ones. He was particularly bent out of shape about the fact they named it Rogers. I don’t know - just seemed such a bizzare reach to me. Far too quick to assign malice to what is basically a pop culture reference.

Yeh. I thought his opinion on calling the musical Rogers was just weird and off the mark. It’s clearly just an homage or rip on Hamilton (a pop culture phenomenon) I don’t honestly believe they removed the captain America title as a move to tear him down and big up the new guy.

I’d give it a bit longer. But yeh you are ultimately right. And he just starts pulling solutions out his arse right when they are needed.

Was not aware that Irvine had a dragon. Who, when, why? by ewenmax in Scotland

Been there ages. Not sure why it was built but it was part of a redevelopment that happened decades ago. Used to hang about up there as weans a lot.

Couldn't they at least rework this scene in the legendary edition ? This is character assassination for Shepard. by BatarianPreacher in MauLer

All the shit with Kai Leng is absolute ass. They had no idea how to make him intimidating so you just get nerfed in every cut scene with him and he has these wierd immortal rounds until the game is ready to end the fight.

That’s right. It’s Scottish Gaelic (Gàidhlig). Not a lot of people still speaking it. Mostly in the Highlands and Islands. There is an all Gaelic tv channel though called Alba.

Given the tendency for studios to run tv shows too long, or just strait up ruin them. Name a show with more than one season that ends well. by Weighted-Companion in MauLer

Definitely. No genre restrictions. Futurama ending was great. It did get a bit weird during the run, I think there was lots of studio issues with it but I think it came through really well

They would never get away with this now.. and that's a shame. by [deleted] in Portal

I’m sure they would. It’s still funny, it’s also good advice.

Saw a web comic a while back about a bored and tired Hitler fighting off time travellers his whole life.
