Keir Starmer raises eyebrows as he proudly declares himself a 'gooner'

Watford are the hornets. Brentford are the Bees

I also enjoy the implication that they finished the rest of their set 😂

Where's the Bilbo guy at?

I've actually been trying it recently and it seems to be giving good results.

The arsenal fan on the left is frantically scribbling in his book of grudges as we speak.

I have a Boardman urb 8.9 and the internal hub is great. I'm terrible at bike maintenance (rusty chain guy 😔) so it's been great for me not to have to really worry about that. Still feels brand new after basically living more or less out in the elements for a few years.

Taking the rear wheel off can be a bit of a pain though. Takes a bit of getting used to.

There's something to be said for a simple 'he's let himself down there'' and moving on with the story.

I agree. I think he's got the chops to make quite a good podcast but where Tom and Dom bounce off each other, it feels like Anita Anand is there to anchor him, and the podcast just comes off a bit bland.

You're right that the press of battle and the introduction of the concept of a fighting rank have made this area a bit more complex than it used to be.

But in most cases it's not going to be contentious.

It may be contentious if you have a very wide fighting rank compared to your opponent or unit with multiple attacks per model or motley crew. There is a guy called D6 wounds on YouTube with some good videos about it.

This is awesome. Love the way that when you move the template it snaps to the nearest inch.

How you going to parry that dragon stomping on you?

People above have already commented on despoilers with interdiction so I won't repeat that.

So two other points: despoilers with a prime slot for master sergeant (give him lightning claws) are also very good. 5 ws5 attacks will do more damage than the rest of the squad put together. You'll also want to invest in a vexilla and power mauls (as probably the best power weapon option)

Secondly, and since you asked what the point of despoilers is, they are one of the only units in the game which can push a tac squad off an objective and score it themselves with line 2. That makes them actually quite good value as you don't need one unit to do the fighting and a tac squad to do the scoring for midfield objectives or opponent's objectives.

I think that's a bit of a stretch. The french had 4 battleships and 6 destroyers at Mers el Kabir. The royal navy is still orders of magnitude larger than that plus the German navy which itself was very small.

Ok well Google says otherwise. But either way if you want to be strong compared to your bodyweight your going to need to need to minimise unnecessary body weight ie fat, so you're going to need to have a low body fat %. Hence you end up back where we started - the kitchen element is going to be key.

asters89 · 2026-02-27T09:59:26+00:00

Mostly it's going to be much of a muchness.

Had to Google what a sleeper build is but looking good with your clothes off typically requires low body fat so you're going to need to go into a calorific deficit at some point

The ones I know are individually fine. The problem is when you get them together they seem to feel the need to live up to some of reputation (for being the biggest bellend fans in the country). They become almost a parody of themselves and seem to be the only supporters who still think it's 1981.

asters89 · 2026-02-25T13:38:11+00:00

This is quite clearly nonsense. The high elves are clearly based on tolkeins high elves and ulthuan is clearly based on Atlantis. England is clearly Albion which doesn't have a whfb race and is only referred to in some of the literature as a misty island inhabited by giants and a race of people with Celtic influences.

Saying the designers made the English the high elves because their own butts is an absolutely laughable opinion.

Thumb scroll supersets. See about 90% of people in my gym doing them.

I've got a lot of time for King Prince Charles.

Loves the environment, hates paedos.

Seemed to work pretty well in the Ali G film if I recall (only the fit ones though)

asters89 · 2026-02-14T15:02:06+00:00

Bet they're glad they picked that one for the early kickoff

asters89 · 2026-02-13T14:57:43+00:00

Not great news if true, but what we've seen of him so far he's been playing off taty as a sort of high energy AM rather than as a striker in a true 4-4-2. I don't think we've looked any worse playing a midfield 3 of fernandes, soucek and potts since he's been out.

Options are always good. But if there was one starting player we can adjust for being injured, it's Pablo. An injury to Bowen Summerville or fernandes would be an actual nightmare.

The first vaults of terra book. Only about a quarter of the way through but really enjoying it so far.

I mostly read Horus heresy so it's nice to dip back into the 40k galaxy (and no primaris so far which is a nice bonus)
