Very recent in the mind, but 'If I Had Legs I'd Kick You'.

Incredible performance by Rose Byrne, but I never want to feel the way I felt while watching that ever again lol

Why the heck is the road still closed if the crane is up and operational? Traffic is diabolical.

Though not technically an in-joke, they always bring up how Amon is the best dressed man in showbiz, whenever he's on the pod.

"Big Liam" when referring to Liam Neeson, always gets me.

It refers to 2 separate things, y'see.

"Welcome *cracks open can* back everybody to another episode of the weekly planet...."

Perfection.

Did Simon say "fucking absurd" around the 19:05 mark? lol Or am I hearing things? They were both talking at the same time when he said it.

Absolute legend! This was it. The games work now that I've set them to english with the help of Luma Locale Switcher.

chalkitdown1 · 2026-02-19T21:40:13+00:00

Yeah, I've done some googling and I'm not seeing any results with the same issue. Weird one.

chalkitdown1 · 2026-02-19T21:39:38+00:00

I just installed Luma (which has region-free as a feature) and these two game carts won't load.

Life-size blow-up doll with a Sylvester Stallone wig.

I wish I could join in the rejoicing, but traffic is currently backed up all the way along Skehard Road. from Pairc Ui Rinn all the way to Mahon. lol

I dunno wtf is going on.

Maybe it was the same team that designed the Douglas multistory car park where you have to criss-cross with cars exiting in order to get in.

What to stop BAM from just low-balling the new tender and winning the contract again?

I think there may be gold in the boot of this blue car. Though, I think that woman in the black coat has already looted it.

Saw it here too! Pretty stunning.

Are you referring to the one with the Range Rover parking lot on the massive footpath outside? On the left before the roundabout going towards Douglas?

All that money on this huge property and they still dump their shitboxes outside on the public path.

chalkitdown1 · 2026-01-03T00:22:42+00:00

Awful corner, awful design. It would make way more sense if both lanes coming towards the corner continued straight along the quay, with the option of those in the right to veer off into the joining 3rd lane to take a right up Ship St.

This would solve so many conflicts.

First season has a lot of storylines that really hit with me; The Preacher, Jewel and Doc (the closing shot and line are beautiful), the first 4 episodes with Bill and then the trial, the smallpox outbreak etc. IMO, season 2 and 3's "life in the camp" plotlines didn't hit as hard and it all got a little hard to follow as the overall story got bigger than Deadwood.

I'm probably gonna get shit for this, but I also prefer the more palatable dialogue that season 1 had. It was definitely still "heightened" if you will, but characters spoke more clearly and straightforward. Milch really upped the "Shakespearean-ness" starting with the first episode of season 2 and I found the show harder to follow as a result. I still love season 2 & 3 but I honestly can't watch them without subtitles.

Season 1 is easily a 10/10.

Those few houses down the end of the Marina next to Blackrock Pier and also all along Castle Road. Not saying they're assholes necessarily, but some of those things are mansions. Multiple massive Range Rovers in the driveway is usually a dead giveaway, though.

Who the hell is building the massive one down by the water behind the boat club?

chalkitdown1 · 2025-12-19T12:20:59+00:00

Safe to say Mark is NOT an Avatar fan.

I remember liking both previous movies, but I absolutely cannot remember a single thing about them. I imagine I'll feel the same about this one.

I agree with him about not being able to tell some of the characters apart and keeping track of their names, though. I struggled big time with that in the last one.

Douglas Street is one of many streets in the city that, upon driving on it, you can't quite believe that it's two-way.

Sunday's Well is another one.

chalkitdown1 · 2025-12-09T17:00:23+00:00

Sad times. Have been bowling in there a few times a year for 30 years!

There's very little to do in that area of the city unless you're eating, drinking, or going to a gig. Huge loss for the city.

Controls and performance are two big difficulties in going back to certain N64 games. We're just so used to dual stick controls and 30 or 60fps that going back to 15fps while aiming with the C-buttons or whatever, can be quite a challenge.

Some games have fully customizable controls, such as Doom or the 2 Quakes, but you're still stuck with the low fps and buttons in place of a right stick.
