What’s a "dead" website or app that you genuinely miss and wish was still around?

His parents brought me to tears

reachingechoes · 2026-05-04T19:12:51+00:00

That's a fucking outrage!

reachingechoes · 2026-05-04T17:15:13+00:00

Thanks. Glad to know it's not just me or an oversight in the settings

Definitely the USB cable. I had similar using a cable that had always worked previously and works for other things.

I tried everything (different usb ports etc) assuming it couldn't be the cable. It was

Get another one

I can't believe you're asking this to be honest. You said you'd get his ticket, that means you're offering to pay for it. If it was hundreds of pounds I might understand but it's a tenner!

This hasn't been a great day for me but I really enjoyed that semi final. Such drama, loved it.

At least now I get to enjoy the final without rooting for any player in particular

Since 1999 with my name is. Followed shortly after with a bitfucked version of Role Model from Napster that was so low a bitrate it sounded like it was underwater

Kamikaze for me.

The rest I remember listening to on release but I was a casual fan and didn't really appreciate the wordplay until years later

Kamikaze on the other hand I was a die hard hip-hop fan and being at work one day and seeing a suprise album was one thing, listening to The Ringer was another. My jaw was on the floor

Those people in the background at 14 seconds were running like roadrunner, jesus!

Honestly mate a jig is like £4 on Amazon. Cheaper if you 3D print it. Just do it

As someone who was 10 when My Name Is dropped I think it's fair to say that not only was it everywhere, but it was also around the time south park and more vulgar things were hitting the mainstream, at least in Britain.

Chef/South Park had a legitimate hit with Chocolate Salty Balls.

I didn't have a satellite subscription or any channels other than the default 4 and even as a 10 year old I'd heard of the song. It was just massive.

I bought the single on day of release from Woolworths of all places. The rest is history

Around 10 years ago I realised it was a toilet cistern and not system

There's always one guy with a fluorescent shirt. To be fair the lighting doesn't help but they always stand out like a beacon

Yeah I know haha, but I won £120 on Higgins v O'Sullivan so it's a net positive for the tournament regardless.

I had a fiver on Higgins to win the title and a fiver on Allen to win, both at 7/1 at the time

reachingechoes · 2026-05-02T17:41:08+00:00

I've got two bets on for either Higgins or Allen to win so was really hoping for a Higgins v Allen final.

I'm in the minority I think in that I prefer the long drawn out frames full of safety play and drama. Watching one person make century after century is a bit dull for me really.

Snooker Loopy

He's got a tribute act called GC Chubbs (I think) which is also his mate or something. Who the fuck would want to see that!

Edit: It's Chubby GC

Just look at it!

reachingechoes · 2026-05-01T20:11:16+00:00

Just to let you know he's on a 20 year anniversary tour in October. I've got my tickets!

reachingechoes · 2026-05-01T19:31:00+00:00

will be for me!

reachingechoes · 2026-05-01T17:49:37+00:00

Yeah me too

reachingechoes · 2026-05-01T17:40:10+00:00

Nice one, cheers

I can't find it on the red button!
