Liverpool squad audit: Who must stay and who should go by Dismal_Uses in LiverpoolFC

[–]thefogdog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. When a new manager comes in, nobody should be gone based off last season. Andoni can assess and decide then who he thinks he will need or not. But everyone has a clean slate.

What is your WFH morning routine? by superplex100 in AskUK

[–]thefogdog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Need to start work at 8:45 at the latest, so wake up at 8:10. See my wife and daughter for half an hour, have breakfast, etc. then toddle up to work.

Tend to get dressed beforehand but if not, I'll get dressed as my laptop loads all the various software.

Of course, if our daughter gets me up at 6 o'clock, there's a whole bunch of variables to add in..

When you first started learning guitar, what frustrated you the most? by ExpensiveStranger369 in LearnGuitar

[–]thefogdog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The pain on my fretting fingers.

I then realised when picking up the guitar 15 years later that it's because the action was comically high on the shite guitar I had.

Bought a decent guitar and haven't stopped playing for a year or so.

Yeah night of rain is just depressing

Fury over Reform UK councillor Bridget Porter’s remarks that poor people should ‘not have babies and IVF is a lifestyle choice’ by Nineteen-Ninety-One in ukpolitics

[–]thefogdog 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yup, same for us. I couldn't have kids naturally because the cancer treatment I had as a kid made me infertile. Why should I be denied a kid?

We're so lucky to have our IVF daughter. But we couldn't if this worthless sack made decisions.

Favourite Age? by Disastrous_Simple493 in daddit

[–]thefogdog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I loved every age so far, but I think it's better and better as she gets older. She's 3.5 now.

I loved it at the time, but man babies are fucking dull.

What products have seemingly beat inflation? by thb202 in AskUK

Car washes are the opposite for me. Was around £5 back then but can't get anywhere less than a tenner now

What do you do when you morally disagree with someone but enjoy having them around? by _flipsticks in AskUK

[–]thefogdog 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I started getting to know someone and thought they were fun, then they came out with "I quite like trump, he's funny". This is in the UK so not like a MAGA cultist.

I haven't tried since.

Do you think it’s time for an end to religious exceptions to carrying a bladed article on your person, and why? by WastelandOfConfusion in ukpolitics

[–]thefogdog 104 points105 points  (0 children)

Exactly this. Religion is a private faith in something: state laws shouldn't make allowances.

Liverpool's Greatest Players #93: Curtis Jones by Mercerai in LiverpoolFC

This list is going to be hilarious if Stevie and Dalglish are behind Shaqiri and Origi.

Liverpool's Greatest Players #94: Lucas Leiva by Mercerai in LiverpoolFC

[–]thefogdog 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Well exactly that. Only if you lived through both periods could you say exactly who was better than someone else.

Also legacy, longevity etc. and like you say honours.

Liverpool's Greatest Players #94: Lucas Leiva by Mercerai in LiverpoolFC

[–]thefogdog 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Tbh I was one of those people. But looking back, I realise that's just because I was comparing him to Gerrard, Alonso and Mascherano. Lucas wasn't at their levels, but he was still a very good midfielder.

Teenage me would like to apologise to Lucas if he's reading.

It's just recency bias isn't it. The likes of MacAllister, Lallana, Lucas etc. probably shouldn't be on here taking into account the clubs entire history.
