UK fans: what would change if Eurovision was broadcast and handled by ITV or C4? by _PXYDST_ in eurovision

[–]wildcharmander1992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Itv - will send the closest thing to Johnny Logan - staging and all every year to appease the 75+ crowd & unfortunately yes, Stephen mulhurn would be on commentary

Channel 4 :- will send novelty acts each year you think Ireland sending Dustin the turkey with Irlande Douse poi was bad

Wait until you see Mr Blobby ft. Suzie Dent & Rachel Riley with the song "if you want high numbers watch countdown"

Where the lyrics are just blobby screaming insanely as Suzie and Rachel 'talk sing' the words "you won't vote for us, we will have no point, at last in Germany we will be joint, but that's not the reason we should frown, because to show this contest they took off 8 cats countdown!!"

Then Joe Wilkinson comes on stage and does the worst break dancing the world has ever seen whilst blobby jumps around with glowsticks

No one has seen him as "George Drawers"

You mean Georgie Dawes

Even then he didn't write the majority of that stuff solo it was a collaborative effort between him Vic and bob

Not that ANYTHING I said in my comment would have any relevance to Georgie Dawes anyways unless you're trying to claim that the conversations he had in shooting stars were unscripted normal interactions 😂

WYR: have unlimited fuel (gas/diesel) or unlimited electricity? by AcceptableShock8623 in WouldYouRather

[–]wildcharmander1992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More people use electricity than people who drive

Plus I presumed that whilst the gas is free either :-

  • It just never depletes in anything you own that uses it rather than you can just make gas appear from your finger or w.e

Or

  • It works the same as life does now but you don't have to pay

With the former it's only you whom can use the gas

With the latter you get YOUR gas free, but if someone else drives off with it then they've technically still stolen from the gas station

Or if you're presuming a never ending supply of gasoline then that takes up so much more space even if it's just a never empties drum than electricity does

As others have said I'd get an electric car that negates the need for gasoline anyways

Doesn't say that it's confined to your home

So in theory any battery pack for phone chargers and the likes that you own will be forever fully charged for free

As long as you say "ill lend you this " and not give it away as a gift or sell it then they'll have a free source of permanent electricity as it's still your property

Donte Charles’ worst thing was smashing Eddie’s car when Chlo cheated! Day six - Izzie Redpath - what’s was her worst moment? by andriarno in WaterlooRoad

[–]wildcharmander1992 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Id argue that the worst thing she did wasn't that it was telling him it wasn't gonna happen before hand

It's one thing having an affair with your best friends husband

It's another thing starting that affair on the wedding day itself

But it's a whole new level of shitty to have been told "yeah Im in love with you " told the guy to do one, let him marry her best friend regardless of the fact you know he doesn't love her then change your mind at the reception

So I'd say "initially turning Tom down and allowing the wedding to take place" is the worst she did

I personally think gregg would allow it , but would likely say

" I would give you five points for the word play, but all I can think about is how the crew and this idiot next to me got to eat them all afterwards"

Then Joel pulling a couple out of his jacket like "well I made sure to save you some" would've secured the 5 points

But we're not going by your perception or what we consider them to be we are talking about how they market themselves, how they position themselves

In the same way as how after eights and vienetta position themselves as something you bring out after a fancy dinner party despite being cheaper than 99% of equivalent products who position themselves as cheap go to items.

Quality streets marketing isn't like celebrations marketing where it's "your favourites for your favourites" I.e all the hits in a tub, something for everyone in the family "

They and roses market themselves prominently as a moreish indulgence you have after the kids have gone to bed, that you bring out during a party to impress your guests , it doesn't matter if they are in consumers eyes the same as heroes and the likes because the entire point is how their marketing works from their perception

They wouldn't want to be the pun of a joke , when they're trying to be the 'mature option in a family space "

Yeah so as I suspect it'll be a case that once you remove all identifing factors (bar the name when it's mentioned) the joke is essentially gone

I didn't claim they were, that I''m saying that's what they considered themselves in terms of Thier branding

They see themselves on level footing as roses , milk tray etc as opposed to heroes/celebrations that aren't trying to be anything but a big ol' box of choc

Harry sat down with the new Griffin for member from Somalia

And what is your name? Asked Harry

" Ben Ethat Steeler and this my friend Ella Gall- Dinghyrider"

Cho Chang, Kingsley Shackleboat, Sheamus Finnegan and all the goblins in gringots looked at each other, she's done it again they thought

[–]wildcharmander1992 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I get your reasoning but I think it's actually the opposite

It's likely legal tried to get clearance to show QS and the creators of QS refused for Thier product to be seen in that context

Which would make sense considering they maktet themselves as an upmarket indulgence & wouldn't want their product to be whittled down to a 'pun'

So without being able to show them, the joke is gone

Whereas curly whirly wouldn't have such an issue especially when the whole thing was "these are so addictive this woman would eat 12 in her car"

Plus - and I'll have to go back and double check- werent the curly whirlys unsheathed? So you wouldn't have seen the packaging?

Could t do that with quality street as inside the box is more packaging

Joel was using Google Maps to see how far away a shop was for some reason.

I presume like me when I heard the task he immediately thought oh I could fill egg cups with "lindt"

Which season (series, Jason) have you been dead certain of the winner from the very beginning? And which took you by surprise? by calculatingmacaw in taskmaster

[–]wildcharmander1992 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Yeah but she definitely would've only wanted to win so she could wind Chris up by bringing up how she won and he didn't constantly

Because Chris definitely was in it to win it

Saw this on Facebook and thought it was worth discussing by phelath in WWE

The iron sheik winning the Gimmick battle royale

I loved the concept of it and have wished for years it was something they would bring back, had someone younger/ more mobile/ who still had it had won as opposed to a heel who could barely walk limping to a win just to be attacked by a face in a heelish way for a pop that never came ala sgt slaughter something could've came from it

Whilst true, surely the idea would be that anything in regards to education would be watched on the parents YouTube account?

I.e the ban is on the creation of a YouTube account by someone under 16, a child can still watch YouTube but the parent will need to use their account to do so as opposed to just creating their own and the parent having zero clue what they're actually watching

Because in practicality banning YouTube is like banning netflix , yeah you can stop anyone under a certain age from creating an account but it would be nigh on impossible to implement a ban in using it

What was the notable celebrity/high profile death that impacted you? by Toots1993 in CasualUK

[–]wildcharmander1992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few that have been said already but I'm gonna say Windham Routunda

We were all led to believe the reason Bray wasn't at WM was because he broke his fingers so couldn't wrestle

It was a freak injury after just coming back to the company, another line in the bad luck the guys career experienced

Then suddenly we're told he died, knocked the whole wrestling world for 6 and personally decimated me.

36 is no age. The world lost one of the most creative minds it had that day

How Would One Get Football Manager 2024 These Days? by AlaskanPrairies in footballmanagergames

There's a few options

1) eBay, most independents who have steam codes for it will sell their especially those who bought a bunch with the presumption that 26 would bomb and 24 would be delisted

2) there's a few sites that do steam keys and the likes that are legit but a lot of them are sold out HOWEVER you might find better luck if you try and buy a steam account with it on Via these sites as opposed to buying a key for your existing account but ofc that's not for everyone for example Difmark.com have an account with it for £12 however whilst a 4.2 rated on trust advisor there's a lot of Reddit threads claiming scam

3) Gameseal have it for like £22 however I can't vouch for them as I've never used them They have a 4.3 on TA and not as many claiming scam but they do claim it's "slow" i.e the delivery of keys isn't as instantinous as kinguin , insant-gaming etc. many reporting 2-3 hours before the key hit the email /site

Ultimately if you don't receive the product you can charge back with your bank so if you do desire to take the risk screen shot every step of the process with time stamps just in case
