    Michael Kelly. I was pondering this the other day when I saw him in a minor role in The Sopranos as an FBI agent. He's basically a handsome man, but there is an undefinable quality about him that means he'll only ever play officious creeps or politicians with a secret. 

    His CJ from Snyder's Dawn of the Dead is in my top ten favourite movie characters of all time. One of the best, most impeccably worked face turns in movie history. 

    When I first saw this in the pictures, I hated him at first and was utterly devvo by the end. Bravo. 

     

  2. Cupace20231117173302461.png.b7c3da450c325bab5e92fb0f28807b61.pngPoxy - and I'd say well deserved - the whole lot of it has been since Moyesey left, but I'm actually glad this happened, as these 24 hours have seemed to actually work in galvanising the fans again and everyone I've spoken to or seen online - besides the usual bitter blues - seems to be taking this as a positive and being confident enough (as confident as you can ever be as an Everton fan) to shove it up everyone's bollockses/bollocks'/bollockii(?).

    Actually fuming at the week I've had - ball wise - between Bohs losing the FAI Cup Final on Sunday and now this, since Sunday evening has felt like most evenings in the year 2000 when my ex force fed me David Grays' absolutely bastard septic White Ladder album.

     I'm over with me wee lass next Sunday, and I reckon Goodison under the lights is going to be toxically spectacular. 

    I do feel sorry for the wee one though. She's staunch blue, has Everton (and some Bohs tbf) scuttered all over her bedroom, but never stood a chance with me as her old man. I bring her to most Bohs games home and away over here in Ireland, and Bohs are absolutely dirt, and also as many Everton games as we can get in, but to be fair, she's been with me through thick and thin - including last seaons' last day against Bournemouth - through all this, so I just hope for her, the club can make her proud to be blue, as I used to be. 

     

     

  3. Indeed'n it was, Rashers. Actually closer to 55 quid. Two tickets, nachos, popcorn and two drinks. 

    And for the first five minutes I genuinely, truly thought I was watching some sort of pre-movie short or something, because the special effects were Albert Pyun Dollman level. 

    The absolute state of last night. 

  4. I've been trying to watch Jake the Snake's "Pick Your Poison" documentary for ages now (the DVD is gooesed) and couldn't find it anywhere online, so I said on Saturday that I'd pay the €13.00 for the Network and the bastard thing isn't even on it.
    Raging.

    Fucking hell @Scott Malbranque. Father of the year, but I can't bring myself to upvote that post. 

    Don't blame you in the slightest, Torso. I could barely bring myself to even post it, but I needed to tell a place where I wouldn't be judged for that sort of squanderd'n carry on during a 'cost of living crisis'.

    Legit feels like a shiteing fever dream and I bet my daughter and her mates make me wear the free tshirt and lanyard. 

    Style is a cracking tune to be fair. I always find myself furrowing and pouting like Gosling in Drive, turning my head and waking in slightly faster than slow motion when I hear it. 

     

  6. Cleaned out my Credit Union savings this morning so I could bring my daughter and her mates to this.
    I'm still not sure of what's happened here, but @Keith Houchen would be proud, and that's what's taking a potentially very jagged edge off this purchase.

    Taylor Swift. Dublin 2024.
    Absolute state of the price. But sure, we get a lanyard, t-shirt and other goodies.

  7. Never again. I can't do another season of it. Literally broke down in tears when the final whistle went.
    A little snippet of the atmosphere there, with me and the wee lass taking in her first game. Such a bastard first game to bring that beautiful soul to, as well.


    Special mention to our resident Saint - the handsome, wonderful, amazingly beautiful  @Frankie Crisp for checking in on me and making sure I was okay through all this. You're an absolute once off.

    I'm going to get sick.

     

  8. Apologies, Rashers. I’ve been swamped up me plums in it and only getting around to replying now.
    Right, even reading back on what I’d wrote there gave me the Hank Evans’. What an awful little, insufferable cunt he is.
    So, a brief update on this lad:
    ***Any question mark you see at the end of a sentence, is verbatim, because everything out of the insufferable little shitepipe’s mouth is stamped with a question mark inflection.


    So his missus is about 6 weeks out from having their first sprog, and you’d swear this cunt was the first cunt to ever father a bin lid.
    He was on the blower to a customer, and this was the conversation:
    “Rachel…umm…my partner? My partner is with child, so we’re expecting at the tail end of June?”
    With child. With bastard child!

    “I’ll have to temper my gym work while we – and number 3 – adapt to our new situation?”
    It was then, that if ever I was going to throw piping hot black coffee into anyone’s face – that was that moment.

    Ah hold on Rashers, there’s far too much…I’m recording a voicey on this so yiz can try and grasp what my poor head is dealing with.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Truth is, I'm not a bad person, I really aren't - and I'm hope in the name of what the good Universe gives us, I'm not a bad person - but this lad turns me into the absolute worst version of myself.

     

    Sorry, but GDPR is null and void. He literally picks his hooter and mills the contents.

     

    This car is also too small for him, his partner and their child:

    @Scott Malbranque gave me a recipe on here years ago for an anti-inflammatory tea that had turmeric in it. It sounded fucking rank, but he absolutely swore by it and I fancy giving it a go now my body is giving up on me. Are you still about??

    Right boss, when you wake up with an empty stomach, grab a mug, then into the mug cast in a tsp of Turmeric***, a tsp of Cayenne Pepper***, a tsp of Ginger***, a dash of Apple Cider Vinegar (with the Mother/ick floaty bits), and about a gram of Cissus Quadrangularis.
    Boil the kettle. Pour the boiling water into that mix (the boiling water removes clumping), give it a stir, give it five minutes, give yourself a wee pep talk and then neck it down once it's cool enough. It's the angriest thing that will ever hit the inside of your mouth, but it's the only thing keeping me off painkillers for my lack of cruciate ligament on my left peg, and still being able to lift and train heavy. Also snaps you clean out of that lack of motivation you have to even exist, when you first wake up.
    Can't recommend it enough.


    ***Not that cheap gik in the glass in Lidl or Aldi. Grab yourself a big bag of organic on iHerb or something)

    Also, just a warning; This concoction can cause absolute ructions at home. The missus flips the lid regularly at me because I leave turmeric stains on the counters and we just recently bought a new gaff, so I've been banished to the shed with a kettle and wee cabinet for my powders, and that's the only place in our compound that I'm allowed whip this up.
    Also, second warning; Wash your chin and surrounding area immediately after it. The skidmarks are legit, like. Even if you feel you've not spilled or dribbled a single screed of it onto you, chances are the steam will somehow embed itself onto somewhere around the chin half of your face.

     

  10. Genuinely - hand to soul - next to figuring out how to handily get hard Weetabix off a bowl, reading that is the proudest I've felt since the birth of my daughter.

    Knock at the Cabin (cinema)

    I was never going to enjoy this because I hate Shyamalan but even by his standards this is just fucking rotten. Not much actually happens and the ending is just there. We all love Big Dave, of course, and he's excellent in this but this is one of his rare duds outside of Marvel. Did you like this one @Scott Malbranque?

     

    Shyamalan can ask my bollocks - over and over, on rinse and repeat - after that Glass and the absolute state of it, D-Mal.

    Herself wants to give Knock at the Cabin a whirl, but I'm not having a bar of it, and especially after your review.
