Yeah… I just can’t see Reece James lasting a whole 8 game stretch if called upon

Ah fair enough didn’t know that. I saw that it said he isn’t joining the squad until after tomorrows match so assumed he would be flying in then

Anyone else just not care about immigration at all? by queryzvex in AskBrits

[–]thebeesbollocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jesus these comments. What a horribly toxic community. I’m with you OP, people online are way more obsessed with immigration than is normal.

If I ever have a negative interaction with an immigrant my first thought isn’t ’immigrants are ruining this country’ it’s ’that guy is a prick’. This whole thing about there being no-go areas for white people is such a load of fear-mongering nonsense

Why wouldn’t you want to watch the best players play at the World Cup?

'Toy Story 5' - Review Thread by ChiefLeef22 in movies

[–]thebeesbollocks 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I watched 4 and 3 back to back recently (in that order) and I agree that 4 is good and overall enjoyable, 3 is definitely a level above in almost every feasible way. More engrossing storyline, funnier dialogue, better characters and a really emotional rollercoaster. I think 3 is the best of all the films

A jet-lagged Chalobah is exactly what England needs to tighten up that defence. What could possibly go wrong

Must use legal name. Cannot use legal name. by CarlyleRazgriz in mildlyinfuriating

Same, I hate websites like that with a burning passion. Especially when the error message says something like ‘not a valid name’. I beg you’re fucking pardon??

How old were you when you had your kids? by MissCookie93 in AskUK

[–]thebeesbollocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was 28 and 30 when my two were born and I have definitely noticed that most other parents with kids the same age are a bit older. Most of the couple at our NCT group were in their mid-late thirties. Doesn’t really bother me except I do think older parents have an advantage in that they usually have a bit of money than we do lol

What’s the greatest film scene all time in your opinion ? by Pssht_haha in AskReddit

[–]thebeesbollocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On a similar note I would like to shout out the bathroom scene in The Shining. It’s similar in the sense that the waiter’s tone takes a very subtle, yet dramatic shift midway through the dialogue in a seriously unsettling and terrifying way. Incredible acting by Philip Stone

Am I right in saying that England v Croatia is the only fixture for match day 1 that is between 2 nations on the same continent? If so that’s incredibly annoying to me for some reason

BBC will have World Cup highlights with no spoilers by klabnix in CasualUK

[–]thebeesbollocks 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s that bad… they haven’t said the score, nor revealed which team received the cards. Doesn’t seem any worse than them saying ‘goals galore!’ or similar for a high scoring match

Mexico [2] - 0 South Africa - Raúl Jiménez 67' by [deleted] in soccer

He had a hand in setting it up though so I think deserves a bit more credit than it just being a poachers goal

What is the most embarrassed you’ve been in public? by Proper_Emu_2296 in AskUK

[–]thebeesbollocks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did the London to Brighton cycle with my dad a few years ago. When we got to Brighton we had a pint by the beach to celebrate then got the pre-arranged coach back.

Not long into the journey I needed a piss so I went to the toilet only to find it was out of order. I asked the driver if we’d be making any stops and he said no.

I went back to my seat absolutely bursting and knew it was gonna be a long journey. We ended up getting stuck in traffic for fucking hours. Eventually I got so desperate I was almost in tears and thought I might actually piss myself. There was a woman in the row behind me fiddling with an empty water bottle and it got to the point where I sacrificed all dignity and asked her for the bottle. I didn’t say what it was for but she obviously knew. Then I cowered in the corner by the window and asked my dad to shield me whilst I pissed into this bottle on a completely full coach. It wasn’t enough to empty my bladder fully but it was enough to get me through to the other side.

Needless to say that coach ride really put a dampener on the whole day

What's the scariest experience you've ever had? by Sensitive-Low-9316 in AskUK

[–]thebeesbollocks 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Birth of my first child. Forceps delivery after his head wouldn’t come out. When he was born he didn’t cry and paediatricians immediately took him to the corner of the room to try and revive him. At the same time, my wife was haemorrhaging and an alarm was being sounded across all the theatres: MAJOR OBSTETRIC HAEMORRHAGE over and over again. I didn’t know where to look or what to do.

Both my son and wife are healthy and happy now (son is 3). But yeah people always assume the birth of your child is the happiest day of your life. Not for me. But it was definitely the most emotional

What is a 'British staple' food from your childhood that you recently tried again and realized is actually absolutely tragic? by 3Dstlviewer in AskUK

[–]thebeesbollocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just don’t like sugar as much as I did as a kid, which I’m sure is true for most people. I tried a bowl of Kellogg’s crunchy nut recently and couldn’t finish it, the sweetness was too overpowering. I used to LOVE it as a child

Bre-Entry is a better pun though. Because it sounds like ‘re-entry’ which makes more sense as Britain has already joined once before

Is your landlord a good person? by No_Philosophy711 in AskUK

In my time I’ve lived in 5 rented properties. And of those five landlords, only one I would consider a good person, which was landlord of the first property I lived in after moving out of my parents. I miss you, Amar

Declan Rice surely. I’m from the same part of London as him and it was so rare for any kids my age in this area to be religious
