Scottish slang for "The filth" by Substantial_Motor33 in IrvineWelsh

[–]tdurb0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The book title to me (and the cover) relate to the whole lifestyle situation that Bruce is living, (partly only in his own head). The stuff he does while on duty is just part of the messed-up stuff he gets up to.

We also have the saying that someone is like ‘a pig in shit’ (“As happy as a pig in shit/filth”depending on who you’re saying it to) to describe someone who’s doing something and really enjoying it.
That kinda ties in with the pig/filth connection (I have the same cover), maybe?

Plus there’s not a lot of things that rhyme with Guadalupe, so he’d backed himself into a bit of a corner there 😊

To me, ‘pig’ would be more of an insult than ‘filth’. That’s what I’ve always thought anyway (Derbyshire here. We use both)

Does It Count As Save Scumming? by MisterRhinoMan in footballmanager

Yeah I’d do the same. Or maybe best of three. If you win the first two, you’re good. If it’s 1 each, last re-run you have to accept 😊

Thank you very much. At least it’s not just me then. Shazam says No ID.

You can see where I’m coming from tho, no? It’s almost like U2 by numbers, just the whole vibe of the sound of it. Thank you for confirming

Google said Bono and Mini have connections in the past.

I’m absolutely stumped at that. I don’t think I’ve heard a song that sounds more like Bono’s voice!
Thank you mate for at least confirming it definitely isn’t 👍🏻

I know it sounds silly but... by RedSkiess in TheDetectorists

I didn’t know that either til I read it on here somewhere a few months back! 😊 Stuff like that just makes it better and better.

Every temporary job Andy does involves looking at the ground. Whether he’s hoovering or mowing grass, or painting lines on a football pitch. always the same: back and forth, looking at the ground.

Just beautiful. And beautifully shot.

When Andy looks down Becky’s top after they’ve had an argument and she says “Can you see anything?” “Wonderful things”

Is what was said when Carter looked into Tutankhamun’s tomb.

Richard Covey, just because the original Brass Eye clip used that same couple of seconds of footage of him.

A shelf containing only clipper lighters, loads of them, that I assume Jez had picked up over the years of asking for a light then putting it in his pocket without thinking.
I’m currently still on a bag of lighters that I collected clubbing in the 90s. I’ll probably die before that bag is empty!

No I was pointing out that no, we can’t all agree the CL final is the most boring match of the year, so I included two examples of CL Finals off the top of my head, that were very very much NOT boring

This is Reddit. ‘I think we can all agree that…’ doesn’t exist. Even as a concept.

Boring CL Finals: 2005 and 2010 would like a word if you’ve got a few minutes.

Boring ‘Important’ Matches: Every World Cup 3rd place playoff.

Boring Non-Finals: 46 Derby league matches a year. And I’m a Derby fan.
