    [Movies] Talk about the last movie you saw 2: Electric Threadaloo

    Alien: Romulus. Or should that be Alien: Callbacks? There was I don't know how many scenes where I felt the movie was jostling my arm & going "you remember this from previous movies right? Look at it, look at how we're referencing it". You know what, I do remember this from the earlier...

    Okay, the Bat-logo is ridiculous, but can we also ask what the hell is going on with his cape?

    [Brazelton] Sven-Goran Eriksson

    The first non-native manager of the England men's national team, in his day he was one of the finest managers in world football. I'm sure @bhamv3 has fond memories of that match against Germany in Munich. I'm not going to end with the usual "Fuck Cancer" quote, but instead one from his recent...

    If you bought the game within the last 2 weeks & have less than 2 hours playtime it should be fine. I haven't seen anything about how many games you can refund within a set amount of time - this seems like the type of thing Valve would prefer to leave vague to prevent someone gaming the system...

    The Random Crap Thread 2: It Hits the Fan.

    I don't think I've ever laughed at the "funniest joke of the Fringe", this or any other year. OTOH I've seen sets by comedians who have won this award live & they've usually been hilarious. The problem with just reading a one-liner on its own devoid of context is you don't know how the...

    Is income inequality unjust, and if so, where is the injustice?

    So less than $700 fine per child. Your article doesn't say how long this had been going on for but - particularly for the unpaid 10-year-olds - the fine could well be less than the money saved by hiring minors instead of adults.

    [Movies] Talk about the last movie you saw 2: Electric Threadaloo

    Not a movie, but a play. The Mousetrap. Agatha Christie showing why she is the GOAT when it comes to whodunnits. No I didn't work out who the killer was. I won't say I didn't suspect them at one point, but only because I suspected everyone at some point (except the character who dies at the...

    Minor victory thread

    A question I recall asking as a kid. I was reading a Marvel comic set in the then future which featured "Arno Stark, the Iron Man of Zozo" & it took me an embarrassingly long time to realise that due to the bad print quality on this British reprint of an American comic it was actually the Iron...

    The Dutch Olympic Committee have selected a convicted rapist to compete at the forthcoming Paris Olympics. Not just a convicted rapist either - convicted of the rape of a 12 year old girl! The IOC in a fairly typical example of utter cowardice have refused to get involved claiming that the...
