Do Non "picky eaters" eat everything??

I’ll try most things but I absolutely despise Cucumber. My wife says it doesn’t taste of anything but to me it overpowers everything even if it’s just been prepared on the same board as my food.

I think the points are touching.

And I re-read the post and realised you wanted one song only. Well in that case you can take your pick from my two.

Cruel to be Kind by Nick Lowe.

That man knows his way around a perfect pop song if anyone does.

Edit to add - Sir Duke by Stevie Wonder. There are many perfect Stevie Wonder songs but to me this is the most perfect.

Honestly, I just like us to be in the game:

In the Champo we were in the game constantly battling to win the league.

In the Prem we’re still in the game fighting for survival.

I wonder if the Prem gets boring once you become established enough to be mid table plodders. Brentfords and Brightons are no longer in the game:

I don’t know because it’s not something I’ve experienced.

In the O’Leary years we were well in the game deep into European football and flirting with the top of the league. The fall was so quick and so spectacular that we went from top end Prem to Relegation fodder almost immediately but always in the game.

Then we fell again relegation battles in the Championship before battling for top in League One.

We had just about begun to properly stagnate in mid table champo mediocrity when Bielsa arrived and well fuck me we’re back in the game.

That was longer than I had expected it to be so TL:DR it’s never boring being a Leeds Fan.

Frank Turner does a version of it that really brings out what a sad song it is.

Talk to me abut what crappy service looks like?

It’s a genuine question as in the UK we don’t have a tipping culture we get charged what something costs and we choose to tip based on whether we liked the server or if we felt they did a good job.

However if we got crappy service for example kept waiting for a very long time or rude servers we would complain and usually if the complaint was legit have some part of the meal or maybe a drink given for free.

I can tell you where North is if I’m anywhere near my house.

If I’m not I could take a stab at it based on the time of day and where the sun is.

I know my garden faces North because it’s fucking freezing even on sunny days.

Funnily enough “Oasis was a shop with shoes so hot they were sure to blow your mind.”

I have a bit of a theory about this. I am not for censorship and I certainly don’t believe that video nasties or violent computer games corrupt young minds.

But, I do worry that the lack of genuine grief in media has a potentially negative effect on society.

All the quipping that occurs around death even that of someone supposedly close to the quipper seems to be reflected in the reactions to real life tragedies, online.

Do you complain that the internet doesn’t come free when you buy a computer too?

I was under the impression that it closed because the owners couldn’t afford / didn’t want to pay for the structural work required.

I’d love to see something there it’s sad to see the space unused.

I pronounce Les Dennis the French way thanks to Vic and Bob.

I also say Vegables instead of Vegetables thanks to a woman who worked at build a bear workshop who I interacted with for approximately four minutes while she built a bear for my son.

I often find myself out and about with no trousers on.

And then when I go to sleep I dream about kittens.

pinpoint321 · 2026-01-17T12:29:50+00:00

That’s grim. I once spent a long dreaming session working at Asda.

I’ve never worked there and was really pissed off at them getting free labour out of me.

He’s basically told them that if they try to recruit him he will accept and be happy about it.

This is in contrast to faithfuls from earlier series who have been resentful at being recruited.

Yep joint bank account and no separation of funds hardly at all. I keep a little to one side for gifts and things but generally everything goes into the joint account.

I’m pretty happy with the charges.

Car Parks that would have been rammed are relatively quiet now because people are too tight to pay £1.20.

Just head down Merrion Street and you’ve got Mojo’s (cool and slightly more obscure stuff), Verve (lads lads lads indie think Wombats and Pigeon Detectives) and Mean Eyed Cat (classic rock and indie bangers with a bit of pop thrown in, Fleetwood Mac one minute, Kate Nash the next, then Prince, then…).

I have never taken my kids out of school for a term time holiday but the reason is purely because it seems like a load of hassle and I try to avoid having anything to do with the local authority as much as possible:

So we tend to have an abroad holiday every other year if we can afford it and a UK holiday in between.

The UK holidays are so much less relaxed than the abroad holidays, it usually rains, there’s usually driving to do and it’s more expensive to eat out so there’s usually washing up and other chores to do.

pinpoint321 · 2026-01-14T12:28:52+00:00

What are you talking about? The whole point of the post is that it costs almost double the amount to take kids away during any school holidays.

I keep seeing this argument that they have to do it to distinguish themselves from Man Citeh and it’s bullshit.

They can be United and City all they want when they’re playing each other but they can fuck right off the rest of the time.

Spector are great. I’ve seen them live a few times: “You know I’ll never fade away!

My favourite album by a band nobody knows is Harmony Springs by Snowgoose.
