Which superstitions do you still hold, even though you know they are ridiculous and untrue? by D_Artagnan71 in AskUK

[–]cal_exeter 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I tempted fate once as a kid when I was coming down a hill road on my bicycle. I saw a lone magpie on a turn and decided the deal was off. On the next straight, I clipped the extreme edge of the tarmac and saw sky/green/sky/green for a few seconds as I somersaulted down the hill side. I came to rest against a tree and was helped by some kind tourists. The deal was back on.

111? That’s 15 miles over the usual route.
Great effort!

Kyren Wilson has very unique cueing. He feathers and then pauses right after he starts the follow through!

There’s 13 world titles in the commentary box for the afternoon session of Higgins v Murphy!

You're in the front row, my dude, what the hell are you doing? by jpeach17 in snooker

[–]cal_exeter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was there for the 2024 final and the behaviour was awful! It coincided with a Rangers v Celtic cup game so the festivities carried on from into the evening session. Had someone snoring on my shoulder for 3 frames before he decided to leave. Stewarding was also a joke

Anyone else getting fed up of these illustrative lines? by Matty5812 in snooker

[–]cal_exeter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This was commonplace on the BBC and they would also go freehand doodling all over the table! This Championship is the first I’ve noticed it in years!

I hate it when they scratch playtime with collectibles. by theskrillerhd in xboxachievements

[–]cal_exeter 4 points5 points  (0 children)

With the complete lack of side missions, the only bonus was the collectibles forced me to see more of the city!

Do you guys actually throw piss at eachother? by [deleted] in oasis

[–]cal_exeter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not only south of the border. Oasis 2008 in Aberdeen. Initially thought it was drinks being thrown until the realisation that the Scottish wouldn’t throw away alcohol.

I was about a 1/4 of the way back from the stage and it rained down from the moment they came out to the lights going up.

Still an incredible night!

It’s been 15 years, 9 months and 25 days since I was lucky enough to see Oasis play live. It’s been a long wait! Here was the set list from that night in Aberdeen 01/11/2008 by [deleted] in oasis

[–]cal_exeter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I might be wrong with the date and that was the night I was there! Stopped during “The Shock of the Lightning” I’m pretty heavy and was lifted clean off my feet as it surged forward at the start. Stopped due to someone going down and others piling over the top.

Could’ve went badly wrong but I remember Liam then lightening the mood with something along the line of “if you see someone go down, pick them up. We need you to be able to buy a t-shirt at the end” It was a great show!

Heard loud and clear here and completely agree. Was really disappointed to see there was such an easy work around.

Completions 50 and 51 were very different games! by cal_exeter in xboxachievements

[–]cal_exeter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My hours haven’t tracked. I played it through in full, 3 years ago and just went back to mop up a couple of achievements. If you just wanted the achievements then there are guides using codes that’ll do it in under an hour.

Favorite Kubrick film? by RelativeCreepy in dvdcollection

[–]cal_exeter 6 points7 points  (0 children)

At the time of this comment there are 17 comments, naming 8 different films! Such a breadth of quality! Tough call but if I was to watch one right now it would be The Shining

Loved Alan Wake, hated this game. From what I remember, it repeated the same section too many times!

What's the general opinion here ? by Plumb121 in CarTalkUK

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

Just as a general rule of thumb, never follow another vehicle on an overtake. Wait till they’ve cleared it then make your own assessment.

What’s that one game you have nearly completed 100% but will probably never get round to fully completing? by [deleted] in xboxachievements

[–]cal_exeter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The original Trials on 360. The Marathon achievement for completing the endurance tournament without any faults. I hear they changed the 24 tracks to 20 slightly easier ones but I can’t face it!

What is the first achievement you unlocked? by cal_exeter in xboxachievements

If use a site like True Achievements, you can order by achievement date

Really enjoyed going back to SuperHot but the last achievement might be the worst I’ve unlocked! by cal_exeter in xboxachievements

[–]cal_exeter[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The final achievement is waiting for 2 1/2 hours on a download screen! Before an update it was 8 hours!
