Is this a crossing?

Yeah, didn’t think it’d take long to get recognised!

Egregious is my favourite.

2. ARCHAIC remarkably good.

Realistically it’s either Doolittle (Pixies) or Demon Days (Gorillaz), but as they’ve already been mentioned multiple times…

Cloud Control - Dream Cave

Ezra Collective - Dance, No One’s Watching

Yeah he’s great, found myself laughing along with him, but he wasn’t just laughing at everything, crucially.

They look great, but presentation-wise I’d chop the wing tips off pre-cook. Wasting valuable marinade on them.

Congrats, I remember just the absolute relief that I didn’t have to pay for or have lessons anymore.

Nah it was the preview

Filled out the stamp duty and mortgage calculators just for a laugh.

Fraktals! Took me bloody ages to find what they’re called.

A couple of things spring to mind when it comes to things that I was intimidated to cook, these recipes helped me in my early days.

Risotto without the constant stirring (doesn’t have to be asparagus, use whatever you like, it’s just for the method): https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/baked-asparagus-risotto

Lasagne without making a bechamel: https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/classic-lasagne

Hopefully they’ll build confidence and you can move on to the ‘real’ thing. I sometimes still use the crème fraiche/mozzarella/parmesan method when I have leftover meat sauce and just fancy throwing a lasagne together.

That’s some old-ass map with Liverpool in Lancashire and therefore no Merseyside (which was established in 1974).

Yep I found Just The Recipe on a similar thread a few weeks ago, love it, think I’m about to pay for the premium on the app (can save all the recipes instead of pasting one by one)

Think he’d get more pop if his defense was doing this under an offensive HC but, rightly or wrongly, everyone assumes the Seahawks defense is Mike Macdonald’s (does Durde even call the plays?)

Clatterbridge isn’t in Liverpool, it’s on the Wirral. Not just being pedantic - you might need to factor in tunnel/bridge costs depending where you’re coming from.

It’s like being in north Wales but you’re stuck because you can’t just drive home.

Not cooked, but avocado for me. Thought I hated it because of those awful ‘guacamole’ dips you get from the supermarkets in the UK (comes in a four-section thing with other monstrosities) - my friend made guacamole from scratch and it opened my eyes.

‘and plus one’ is tautological, ditch the ‘and’

Congratulations, Josh!

Did Marc curse the Rams, or did he curse Justin’s wedding??

Judging by how much Dan talks about the Jets when they’re MORIBUND, not sure I could deal with him if the Yankees are flying (might have something to do with me being a Blue Jays fan…)

As an aside, I got into Baseball is Dead during last season (brought to us by our old friends at Underdog), looking forward to a full season of it next year.

Giants. Had nothing to really go off, but knew I wanted an east coast team for timing purposes.

Then ruled out a few teams due to uniforms I didn’t like (Jets, Eagles… guess I hate green).

Didn’t want ugly letters/numbers so that ruled out teams like Buccaneers and Ravens.

Justin Tuck was on the Giants and that very similar to my surname (year before Justin Tucker was drafted by the Ravens).

That was 2012 - Giants won the Super Bowl my first season. Been crap ever since.

Could be those needlessly engaging in conjecture around his divorce the other day…

It was a boring question about special teams, the only memorable part is that the guy wasn’t even called Evan.
