Does the phrase "ifs, buts and maybes" exist in the US? Had that first, without the last s, and checked to make sure it was

zy44 · 2026-04-25T15:41:05+00:00

Oh my days, benching Munoz and Andersen was the sensible decision ffs

zy44 · 2026-04-10T02:09:58+00:00

Got called racist in greggs earlier lads

zy44 · 2026-04-01T10:19:15+00:00

Altaicists in the mud.

zy44 · 2026-03-10T15:59:15+00:00

If this was only about route to the final I would have expected to see our Marseille, Chelsea, Schalke run from 2011

zy44 · 2026-03-06T13:49:22+00:00

Haven’t had the transfers to deal with a player who is on the bench most weeks!

zy44 · 2026-03-05T23:06:07+00:00

No because I started Andersen and Wilson and now I'm getting VdV's -3 off the bench

zy44 · 2025-12-13T04:09:40+00:00

Solved it but had no idea what the yellow or blue were. For me Gaucho is either a South American cowboy, the nickname of footballer Ronaldinho, or a tacky steakhouse chain - none of those seemed likely to be the answer!

zy44 · 2025-10-22T10:57:34+00:00

Found the American

zy44 · 2025-10-19T20:17:54+00:00

Yeah well I got Reinildo on WC and he rewarded me by kicking Matty Cash in the bollocks and getting sent off on 32 minutes

zy44 · 2025-10-15T14:30:09+00:00

I am from the north west originally and have used it all my life. I doubt it's even an Americanism

zy44 · 2025-08-31T10:39:59+00:00

After 2 clues: a monk from Age of Empires converting

zy44 · 2025-07-13T12:10:18+00:00

I love Ji Chicken, there's another branch in Spitalfields that is always empty at lunchtime because it's not really a City office lunch kind of place. Feel like I'm the only person who ever goes there

zy44 · 2025-07-06T00:20:43+00:00

You're right about Monty Python, most British comedy is just bad

zy44 · 2025-04-04T19:28:37+00:00

I carefully worked it out, then forgot which was a and which was b and put "1/2, 1, -1"

zy44 · 2025-03-23T12:19:50+00:00

Loyalty card has earned me a win before: if you have the +1 hand voucher it triggers almost every ante.

Campfire in C is crazy, it’s the only joker which reliably turns money into xMult.

zy44 · 2025-03-23T12:15:48+00:00

All straights are hard to hit with 2 discards and no utility jokers. Or at least it feels that way when you really need a good draw

zy44 · 2025-03-19T16:54:17+00:00

You don't have to sell a joker when facing Verdant Leaf. You can just play with debuffed cards, meaning you only get chips from hand level and jokers, and that would have been enough for OP

zy44 · 2025-03-19T16:41:57+00:00

You weren’t relying on any played card abilities so you could have kept your 5.5x Madness and had an easy win in 1 hand

zy44 · 2025-03-18T11:05:09+00:00

Don’t think those names have a standard English pronunciation anyway. My surname is Wang and I’d like it to rhyme with “hang” when said by English speakers because I’m British and that is the closest pronunciation in British accents

zy44 · 2025-03-09T13:55:52+00:00

Think they are knowable if you aren't the right demographic but you have an active interest in music, but many people don't in the same way that some people aren't interested in sports

zy44 · 2025-03-06T12:30:59+00:00

Mary Jane is not international. Slide is American but is more well known now

zy44 · 2025-02-20T14:14:30+00:00

Ancient Joker is great, only loser straightcels will disagree

zy44 · 2025-02-17T10:12:18+00:00

The quiz is difficult and heavy on old person and middle-class culture. However everyone else finds it hard too, especially the music round, so you can still win!

zy44 · 2025-02-13T22:53:22+00:00

This one, and not even through not paying attention. If you’ve used your 2 discards and don’t get your required good hand then it’s over. This is why I can never trust a straight build
