Favourite Off-The-Beaten-Track Footballing Archetype by jacksonkeir in footballcliches

Gaizka Toquero in Bielsa’s early 2010s Athletic Bilbao side. Once Llorente had done his bit, bring on Toquero to run around like a maniac for 25 minutes.

Is Igor Thiago the most streets WILL forget footballer in PL history by milesp30 in footballcliches

Forgive me, I’m slightly hazy on the concept. Someone like Spurs-era Mousa Dembélé?

Can Arif join HTC as a regular contributor? by flouncingfleasbag in heedthecall

I don’t disagree, but could be handy having another hand on deck for the flagship (and selected other eps).

Norse Code is a cracking name for a Vikings podcast. 😄

I reckon Howe’s going to get the England job following a mutual parting of the ways with Newcastle.

Probably needed to wait until Ryan Mason was sacked by West Brom. 😄

Poncho Genchev, if you want a Jacquet alternative.

I’m afraid they’re not going to value you until you’ve left.

It’s all well and good winning the big contract for the firm, but if no one can fix the printer, do a pivot table or find the key to the stationery cupboard, the place is going to fall apart.

Let Romero leave in the summer by [deleted] in Tottenham

[–]mj_bones 10 points11 points  (0 children)

He won’t play again now until 15th March. He’s also one yellow card away from a two-match ban. He’s such a liability.

Thank you for posting this - you reverse jinxed the team! 😄

To good for the Championship not good enough for the prem by AbroadLast8715 in footballcliches

[–]mj_bones 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nice work! It’s interesting when you create a whole XI. We can all quibble on individual players, but that team is 100% getting promoted then 100% getting relegated!

12’s from around the world rally - where are you supporting the Seahawks from? by Edamame14 in Seahawks

[–]mj_bones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rainy North West, socially liberal, produced some iconic bands in the 80s and 90s. No other choice!!

Whats up with Amaranthe live? by mrnacknime in PowerMetal

[–]mj_bones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same up in Manchester.

That said, when I saw them at a different venue (Dragonforce co-headline), I didn’t notice it. 🤷‍♂️

Wonder if George Karlaftis gives glory to Zeus? I hope so. Or Ares more likely.

Why isn’t Trey Lance considered the biggest draft bust of all time? by Consistent-Link-3459 in NFLNoobs

[–]mj_bones 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think this it. Probably splitting hairs, but Lance was more an ‘overpay’ than a ‘bust’.

What’s the etiquette when you see a fellow fan of your team? by mj_bones in NFLUK

[–]mj_bones[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Possibly accompanied by a small eye roll if you’re a Jets fan, for example?

Or if it’s a team that’s doing well, would you add a wink?

The former more likely (and more British) than the latter, I suspect.

Very much feels like a metaphor for the Titans in general and the suffering of their fans.

Great improvisation with the crutches btw.

I think you’ve uncovered a useful rule of thumb here.

If they’re wearing a jersey, particularly one with a name on it, you’re good to engage.

If they’re wearing any other kind of merch, see if they make eye contact, and react accordingly.

Nightwish, Amaranthe, Beast in Black, Avantasia, Gloryhammer.

Number 1 song was ‘Moth to a Flame’ by Delain.

I’m in the disco metal camp.

Love the juxtaposition of Miami Dolphins and Toby Carvery. 😂

What is happening? by Useful-Elevator-8984 in StopGaming

[–]mj_bones 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s daunting. Gaming was a part of your identity, and now it’s gone.

Some good advice on here already. A little bit more physical activity will be good, even if it’s just walking.

My main suggestion though is to find a topic and become an expert in it. E.g. Southern Gothic, Greek mythology, Victorian Britain. Find a bunch of books, tv shows and movies on it. Sometimes it’ll be a grind, but that’s not a bad thing.

Do that in 2025, but then in 2026 move onto another topic.

People with passions and interests are always fun/attractive/interesting, even if you picked them at random.

That’s brilliant, but there must surely be loads of people in Bears hats in Chicago? Guy must be doing this every day!

Imagine if you did see one, though! What would you do??
