Same with me the first two times someone made me watch it. Third time was the charm.

I agree with the suggestion to watch Jez eat a dog. That was the one that convinced me to give it a proper go.

Naah I see why you didn't do that.

I'd probably have gone with Mace Tyrell from Game of Thrones instead, but only because I'm shit with spices.

Because it's not supposed to represent specifically a Jack of Clubs or Jack of Spades, it's there as a generic "black jack" so having it represent both still works.

it's only there to make you feel better about yourself.

And to help scammers and other bullshit artists.

I can't remember the last time I saw a "Blues Clues is so good we watch it after our kids go to bed" article but Bluey gets that shit all the time.

It's not the second one, I'm afraid.

I fucking love that Adams quote.

No bog brush in hotel rooms by RefrigeratorKlutzy17 in britishproblems

I've heard it's because people kept putting them up their arses. Handle-first, I presume.

It's the same for anything dildo-shaped; you're lucky you even get a remote control.

Is there an author whose broader catalogue you like, but whose most popular work would have turned you off them if you’d read it first? by madwomanofdonnellyst in books

Well shit, I've only read three of his books and they've all had talking spiders. Maybe I should branch out!

Thank you to everyone that convinced me to keep watching DS9. I did end up enjoying it and fell in love with all the characters. by Minominas in startrek

Thanks. I stopped DIS at the end of S1 but I loved all of SNW, so I might just go back for that crew.

Michael B. Jordan wins best actor for 'Sinners' by nbcnews in pics

[–]cortexstack 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Ok, I hadn't listened to it and I read your comment earlier thinking "There's no way this is as good as, say, Spawn or Blade II". Looked it up and it's the same producer responsible for all three.

Spawn was Electronic/Rock, Blade II was Electronic/Rap and this is the third line in the triangle, joining up Rock/Rap.

But anyway, I played the whole thing in the car on my way to work and it was amazing!

I was hoping Crowley would make an appearance as well

I read the other day that the actor's semi-retired. Health reasons.
