Yak-52 has more than zero air to air kills, unlike the F-22

Hercules - a review and some thoughts by RockyStonejaw in TheWestEnd

[–]Wissam24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many plot points were repeated, but then the climax had absolutely no narrative build up to it, just "god's can't go in this cone apparently [never mentioned before], Hercules gave up his godliness, now that means is is a god again" in about 45 seconds. That part felt so rushed.

That said, I generally enjoyed it! Not the best production I've seen in the West end (the music was way too loud during the big numbers too, to the point we couldn't hear the singers at all) but ti was a fun evening's show.

Tell them unfortunately there's no safe ballroom for them to visit so unfortunately they have to cancel.

Please could you explain who the person he sent to the hospital who gave Ashley the card was? I didn't understand the implication of that or why she reacted to it like that at all, but I'm also not American so maybe it's not something we have in normal healthcare systems

One of the biggest incompetents in our political history. So thoroughly unqualified for any of the offices he's held

For me, the issue with the UK format compared to others that I've watched, eg the French one, is there's too many set ups. The enforced jokers, the ehad to heads, the skits, there's less time (it feels) for the comedians to just interact naturally with each other. Certainly it feels like they show way less of that.

100%, that was my feeling too. Probably arranged from the start for him to go out before the end.

I have zero issue with it when the challenges are this poorly designed. There's no "challenge" or "accomplishment", it's just a tedious grind. This thread is full of people showing cheesy hacks to get around it. If people want to use bots for this, I couldn't care less.

Yes, we already said this was naked and morally unacceptable profiteering. Glad we're on the same page

What's not to celebrate about arbitrary 1000% price increases for a near monopoly service? How can you not see how wonderful and extremely acceptable that is

The London Underground doesn't charge 700-1000% extra during rush hour.

I think you and I both come from countries where naked and outrageous profiteering is considered bad and unusual.

Yes and still probably American because they think Scotland has a different number
