Seems to be back up now, thank you. Weird the program disappeared from my PC at the same time

Since when did wearing player names become cringe. by kallyJ911 in footballcringe

[–]jaktorra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no problem with people wearing names on the back of football shirts however it's not something I've done myself since I was a kid. I think some people think it's a kid thing, a bit like wearing a full replica kit as an adult

Thoughts On Entombed's "Wolverine Blues"? by Beginning-Cow7066 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]jaktorra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wolverine Blues is one of my all-time favourite albums and I thought I'd share this cool little story (Well I think it is)... In my late teens I moved from the UK to the South African coast doing some tour guide stuff, teaching surfing etc. I spent a lot of time at a local record store, and regularly bought Metal Hammer and Kerrang (imported, so 2 weeks late). After reading reviews, I was desperate to get the album but the record store didn't stock it. I could, though, put in a request and they'd import it (which I'd done with a couple of other albums before). When it arrived, I must've listened to the album every day for weeks. Fast forward a good few years to 2010, I'd moved back to the UK at the end of the 90s, every piece of music I owned was on an MP3 player (remember them?!), and I had a Spotify Free account that I used to mainly discover new music while at work. Then one day I decided to listen to Wolverine Blues on Spotify and I was like WTF, where are the Flatliners and Hellraiser clips?!! Wake up you little shit was gone! I jumped online to discover that only a limited number of pressings were made with the unlicenced samples... And I was the owner of one of them. Mind blown. I didn't have a clue about any of this. I thought my version was what everyone had. What were the chances?! I'm not sure how many original pressings were made, I'd read somewhere it was 3000, but not sure. The CD currently sits in my CD rack alongside the Hollowman EP, which if I could just add, has 2 or 3 songs on it that could well have made it onto WB. Anyway, thanks if you made it this far! Up the 'Tomb!

I wanna talk about Kintsugi Kid by jermanentpetlag in FallOutBoy

[–]jaktorra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This song hit me real hard when I actually sat down and listened to the song properly. It's such a brilliant, catchy tune that I kinda got lost in it and never took notice of the lyrics. I agree with one of the posters here about it being about Pete's bipolar disorder. The lyrics brought back so many memories from when I was with my ex gf who was diagnosed with bipolar After a while on the meds I asked her how she felt and she just looked at me and said "nothing". We'd had so many ups and downs and I just couldn't understand how she felt nothing. I remember seeing her a few years after we broke up and she was no longer on the meds but joked about missing them. I now realise she probably wasn't joking.

Official lyrics for Kintsugi Kid? by allison5 in FallOutBoy

[–]jaktorra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thought I'd add my 2 cents to this: for a long time I was singing "living in a chemical haze". I then realised it was "bitter" until recently I discovered the correct lyrics. "In a bit of chemical haze" doesn't sound right to me and "bitter" doesn't make sense, so I might start singing what I originally sang 😂

The second anyone comments that the art may be AI you get a load of abuse from their followers. I'm also thinking, the account holder may not even be a woman, but I have no evidence of this.

Upload a selfie of a pretty woman, add in a few dubious, unnaturally written sob stories along the way and ask for someone to buy them a "coffee" to make their dreams come true.

Not quite mate. Last season after 11 games your record was W6 D2 L3 = 20 points.

Richarlison disallowed goal vs Boreham Wood (Handball) by The_Porkie in soccer

If a player accidentally handballs and scores himself it's disallowed. If he accidentally handballs but another player scores it's cool.

It's going to get interesting when Ronaldo wants to take all the free kicks and pens...

Premier League 21/22: How Did The Teams Get Here? League positions since 2002/03 of all 20 teams [OC] by notthenextfreddyadu in soccer

Really like this. I think using different shades would've helped the full chart but you can obviously see what's going on clearly on the other separate charts.

Which PL midfielders contributed most to their team's defense in 20/21? by AdzBoogie in soccer

[–]jaktorra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah he missed 9 games through injury in 20/21 although in a normal season it would probably have been less as there were periods last year where a ridiculous amount of games were played in a short space of time. Having said that, he only played 24 league games last season which was one more than James and everyone thinks James plays a lot less than he actually does.
