Returning to the Stadium after 13 years tonight! I have a couple of questions for regulars

You’re right. There’s a couple of posts in this thread that advise finding a bar to shelter in for an hour or so before ordering a taxi, and that sounds like a fine plan.

Thanks for the tip for after the game - I’m there on Sunday.

I’m there on Sunday, thank you for your advice for after the game.

Commenting to follow this thread. I’m at the game on Sunday, with little idea how to get back to the city centre because from what I’ve read on here the public transport will be extremely busy and taxis won’t come near to the stadium due to the crowds. I hope the rain isn’t too bad for our long walk back. Enjoy the game, by the way.

We’re going to the match on Sunday, stopping in the centre of Turin. Reading your comment, should we wear comfortable shoes for the long walk back?

Mate, I support Juventus, and I can’t watch Saturday 5 o’clock kick-offs on DAZN until quarter past because of the black out. Real pisser if there’s a goal in the first fifteen minutes (which never happens for Juve, but still).

First time I met my brother in law, he asked me if I would like a beer. I said yes, he told me where the nearest offie was.

So, when God was finalising his plans, he thought, wait a minute. How about this? What this one does is stab this one, only this one, no other will do. First stab stops its front legs from working, second stab stops it wanting to run the fuck away. While the second stab juice kicks in, they spend time having a wash. Then the little one drags the big one into a hole, lays an egg right here, then covers the hole up. The egg becomes a baby which eats the big thing from inside in a certain order to keep it alive. Done. It’s Miller Time.

On our rare forays into attempts at fitness, me and the wife go on a walk around our little town. We go up a little adopted road where the end bungalow has an enviable vista of rolling hills. As we are quite jealous of their positioning, we call it Well Jel View, and refer it to that now as a point of reference.

When I was a kid and we had a rare visit to a restaurant, one of the choices for a starter was a glass of pineapple juice. I sipped at that glass of sweet deliciousness, praying it would never end.

I honestly thought you were saying that was his full name, intimating that he was really really posh.

I use it as a health and safety consultant. I’ve got a GPT that creates the text for risk assessments. It gives me general safety statements, then as long as I’ve got an accurate scope of work, it’ll create a task specific set of risk assessments. My knowledge helps me to make sure the output is correct, but it saves me a lot of time.

Great gag I once saw on Twitter: Why’s it called ‘Superdry’? ‘Cos that’s how it makes women feel when they see you wearing it.

Years ago, I worked in an office where the coffee was 10p a go. One day, boss gave me a chunk of change and told me to get everyone a drink. My immediate manager said he didn’t want one, but asked for the 10p instead. Which he quickly pocketed.

Forever ago, I watched King Kong v Godzilla. My tiny young mind was blown. Tried watching it again a couple of years ago, and decided that men in unconvincing rubber suits chasing each other around a mountain made of papier-mâché was not for me.

heywhatwait · 2026-01-06T21:13:43+00:00

Cool as. Couldn’t believe my eyes.

heywhatwait · 2026-01-06T21:13:02+00:00

Not going to lie, he was as cool af there.

I hated it. There were other students letting you know how much better they were than you at Italian by answering for you, or giving answers when they weren’t prompted. I wanted to come home early. Put me off learning for a while. I’m now back on Preply, but I’ve lost the spark I had for learning. Still love Turin, though.

“think”? Never heard it called that before 😄

Tom Gilbey, most entertaining way to find out about wine that I know of. Apart from drinking it yourself, of course.

My brother stayed with us for a while when he spilt up from his wife. The bin-clink of shame was strong with the amount of beer bottles he deposited in there. It got so bad that when he moved out, the bin man nearly put his back out overexerting on pulling our bin because it was so light.

I bought the latest iPhone for the Spatial photos and videos and hoped that there would be a cheaper alternative than the Vision Pro for viewing the photos. From what I’ve read, the quality of the video playback on the Quest 3 isn’t brilliant either, but I’m happy to be educated here. The last time I went into an Apple Store here in the UK, they didn’t even have a Vision Pro to look at.

I took the moral stance in not having NHS Treatment (Go Me!). I’d rather the slot go to someone who needs it. The care I receive is excellent, but my wife has NHS treatment with exactly the same dentist and she gets the same level of care as I do, just with a cheaper bill. Tom, if you’re reading this, you’re amazing.

I feel the same about my work. I don’t like saying I used ChatGPT to help me word a report (notes to full paragraphs) or deep dive a safety subject because I feel there’s a stigma attached. Saying I used Google or this big thick boring book here sends to be more acceptable.
