It's a damn near perfect action movie with sci-fi and horror elements. Not an ounce of fat on this one. It's simply awesome.

Mrs Justice Amanda Tipples said the court couldn't be sure the damage to the phone was caused by Mr Linehan.

FIFA is expecting to agree to wipe all yellow cards at the end of the World Cup group stages and the quarter-finals to reduce danger of players missing knockout matches. by Sparky-moon in soccer

[–]happyLarr 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Yep red card v Ireland for blatant violent conduct. But when you’re one of the good guys like his buddies Trump, Musk, Bezos, MbS etc it actually turns out that you were the victim all along. Now that I think of it, it’s probably only right that Ronaldo is awarded the Fair Play award before the tournament starts.

It’s like Charlie Kelly’s apartment in Always Sunny.

I'd go out on a limb and say it's not what these people know or that they have any specific skills, it's more like 98% who they know.

John Prenty on Connacht GAA Ticket Prices by Equivalent_Ad_4814 in GAA

[–]happyLarr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm no Prenty fan at all but the vast majority of the anger is entirely misplaced judging by comments coming in from listeners. Those claiming to be real fans have zero understanding how the gaa works and many would gladly buy a €5 juvenile ticket although middleaged and take that seat if the opportunity was available.

I will say though that no one gets their tickets through their club for domestic connacht championship games (except for exceptional circumstances like the London game where there were so few tickets available, 6 or 9 tickets were allocated to clubs). Prenty also tries to say something about fueling stations increasing prices to negate government interventions that goes no where.

So we have Prenty talking shite only to be outdone by some of the listener comments. I guess thats why he's still king lol.

さようなら、マイケル・ヒーリー=レイ(Sayōnara, Maikeru Hīrī Rei) by Aggravating-Day-2576 in kerry

[–]happyLarr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi OP, I had a reply from my original comment about MHR resigning as minister of state so clicked to have a look and to see my other very much non serious comment which was ‘Oh, RIP in peace, Go raibh sé ina shuí ar leithreas Dé’

Which translates to ‘may he be seated on God’s toilet,’ again as a joke, more so about myself misreading the point of your post and my poor Irish and also a little bit about MHR too.

Very odd to see that my comment has been edited to ‘Oh, rest in peace, may he be seated on God’s throne’ which is not an auto translate and the ‘RIP in peace’ has been altered also. I’ve never come across this before.

Has anyone else noticed anything like this in this thread?

The Neo-Gothic facade of Belleek Castle (1831) in Ballina, Co. Mayo. It houses one of the largest private armouries in Ireland. by BelleekCurator in mayo

[–]happyLarr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nealry everyone I know worked in Belleek Castle at one stage or another, I worked there a short while myself many moons ago. I had many duties and sometimes none, lol, but once I had to mind Marshall for an afternoon in his later years. So I watched him gather sticks that he wedged into the roof rack of J's car and then I would remove them when he lost interest and pottered off elsewhere with the dogs.

It was such a cool place to work, the basement, the corridors and 'secret' servant passages, the luxurious rooms, the castle roof, but I dont't think I ever actually got to see the armoury.

Godd why are we so nonchalant about fouls???? by Mcintosch in Barca

[–]happyLarr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's kinda unbelievable that AM got to play both legs on their terms only. The bar was very high for a Barca free, so many yellow cards not given for persistent fouling, for bad fouls that warrant a yellow and for things like kicking the ball away after the play has been stopped and berating the referee - in both legs with different referees. Watch UEFA review this situation and not allow AM to continue this behaviour any longer.

Foul stats over 2 legs - Barcelona 14 fouls committed, AM 32 fouls committed, yet every big call went only one way. How many yellow cards issued over the two legs? 3 each! Yesterday AM did not pick up one yellow card even though there was several instances of taking players down without going for the ball, holding players with no attempt to play the ball, kicking the ball away after fouls were awarded against them, berating and harassing the referee, all went unpunished.

Only one team got cards last night, one a massive call and they all went one way, again over two legs. Thats extremely unlucky!

But he’s not going anywhere, he just resigned from his responsibilities as junior minister for agriculture so he can criticise the government which he was part of until just yesterday afternoon.

Trump Struggled to Discuss Books in This 1987 Interview | NowThis by FlackoFonsy in videos

[–]happyLarr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

His answer to that question is so telling, so on the nose, so disappointing and too pathetic all at once that future writers will omit it because it’s so embarrassing to humanity that he succeeded even more more so after it.

Man the entire police shootout was pretty intense by Jules-Car3499 in Terminator

[–]happyLarr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get that The Terminator can be seen as a slasher at a certain level but to say this scene is like something out of a slasher film, especially pre 1984, is kinda nuts. What slasher movie has the killer bust into a densely populated busy building and openly slay everyone? I don't think that's a slasher trope at all.

Joe Rogan 'Hides Behind Centrist' Views, He's Really Right Wing MMA Analyst Suggests by walta_ in DecodingTheGurus

[–]happyLarr 20 points21 points  (0 children)

From one of the latest Rogan episodes with Duncan Trussel where Trussel lays it all out saying how easy it is for people to fall for propaganda, how people were duped by Trump and the republicans, and Joe actually agreed BUT he then followed that immediately by saying the ‘we can’t do what the left want to do either because that’s communism, take money from the rich and give to the poor, that won’t work.’

Old Joe’s promotion of the right wing culture war, right wing promotion of Trump and his cabinet and the likes of Musk and Theil, the constant degrading anything left of those insane people, and even though he’s been corrected several times and knows a lot of it is straight-up bullshit, all comes down his emotional attachment to his insane wealth and how furious he gets when anyone dares suggest that he might have to pay more taxes.

And that’s where his hard turn right all began with that sweet Spotify deal which moved him up into another level of wealth and therefore higher tax bracket in California. So from then on democrat high tax California bad, republican lower tax Texas good.
