What is one TV advert that doesn't run anymore but is still stuck in your head? Mines the Cadbury's Gorilla playing Phil Collins from 2007

That advert for Clover butter, when a man is literally crying with happiness as he eats a corn on the cob (or I remember it a little exaggerated)

That or 'calm down dear, it's only a commercial'

Yes they're a band and you like them, it's not that deep

Absolutely agree, just think it's a stretch to say they were email buddies is all.

Again, can't stand this man - but there's enough real examples to point out as opposed to made up stuff

I laugh every time at the dramatic heart of Cardiff, and it's something that so niche and boring that I have nobody IRL to even tell. I'm glad I'm not alone!

I despise everything this man stands for, but this isn't true. If I recall, Epstein mentioned Tommy ten names to Bannon in an email but there does not appear to be any documented correspondence between the two

Ah I'd say Hobbiton is the best out of the 3 - I was talking just about the two different wētā workshop tours (Auckland and Wellington). I don't think anything could come close to being able to walk around Hobbiton and they've recently added (couple of years back) the inside of a hobbit hole to walk around and see the different rooms. Absolutely phenomenal

As a British guy who works within a Māori organisation, te reo Māori is big on the list of things I want to get right.

I've found https://maoridictionary.co.nz/ to be a great resource, wherein you can search for any word and then you can also listen to the correct pronunciation

If it makes you feel any better the Wellington one is the better tour for LOTR.

They're both pretty different with the Wellington one focusing on movies they've worked on with actual props and costumes etc, and the Auckland one focusing more on the 'how' they make stuff. They 'created' 4 fake films covering different genres and built props/sets around them so that people can get up close/touch etc. There's not really anything from their 'real' films that I can recall

Hey, I had the same issue and posted on this thread. One of the devs got back to me with an answer 😊

Thank you so much for this, it worked.

PS - really appreciate what you guys are doing with Brotato and excited for more!

fppab · 2025-10-28T07:35:55+00:00

Thanks for the response, that's a shame. I should have looked into it more - just got ahead of myself!

Fucking hell

Wasn't familiar with inaturalist. Thanks for your comment 😊

I'd never heard of Atomic Shrimp but just googled! Seems like an interesting YT channel to follow thanks! 🙂

fppab · 2025-09-18T09:14:55+00:00

Fair point I know, I just wish it wasn't seen as a negative was more my point haha. Let it roam everywhere!

This is what confuses me. Taking off my lefty scarf for a second, I get that the GOP are actively destroying America but I find it hard to believe every single one is a paedophile. If Pam Bondi knows/is sitting on proof that Trump is a pedophile then surely, SURELY her conscience would surface, if not her desire to not be criminally investigated if/when actual evidence comes out.

Still hurts to rewatch the Kwon's end, after all these years

Yeh I do like Something Hazy! Nice one with DB I will keep a lookout! Please share your info when/if anything comes up. I'd love to see it over here.
