Pah

VisionQuest, very Doctor Who-y and very good. Maybe the best thing Marvel or Doctor Who have done on TV for ages. (Give or take two or three episodes or the last DW series).

Johnny English Returns For Tax Purposes.

Add “for tax purposes” to a move title. Bean: the ultimate disaster movie: for tax purposes.

Never a penalty.

No. All poems should be read aloud. I’ll go further. They should come with accompanying videos. Different actors should read them - this should be as acceptable as a music cover version.

At times, with a counsellor, therapist or perhaps girlfriend I end up describing myself as inhabiting an emotional liminal space. I blame Joel Morris and Will Maclean entirely for this .

I have been driven to madness by the unified political consensus that "workers should train themselves. Capital should not have to train its labor" This really dominated post 2008 when jobs didn't exist but the political economy blamed out of work workers. Its a capitalist brain worm!

OK, hear me out. A Lord of the Rings remake, but with these two taking the One Ring to Mordor

I didn’t hear Sportsound tonight but can only imagine there was a 40 minute discussion on the precarious position of the Motherwell manager.

Name a non-LOTR character who could resist the one ring.

Actually, number one should be: The killing floor? fon’t be put off by the name, Timmy, it’s not so much as a floor, more of a sluice…

If someone was aggressive and unpleasant to people they didn’t know / never met, but also really nice to their close friends, I’m not sure the second thing makes the first thing OK. It’s a bit of a low fucking bar, to be honest. It’s hardly worth celebrating. “Was nice to eight selected people.”

I have a joke about Scylla and Charybdis but you couldn’t pronounce it.

This Hallowe'en: The Muppet Tam O'Shanter. Kermit the Frog *IS* Tam O'Shanter. Fozzie Bear *IS* Souter Johnnie. Miss Piggy *IS* Cutty Sark. Andy Serkis *IS* The voice of Meg. Only in theaters.

“The famine is over! The curse be damned!! Hit the nuclear button! Mayo have won the All-Ireland!!” An all-time great sports commentary moment from Stephen Grealis and Martin McHugh on Mayo’s Midwest Radio. #gaa

I still think this is basically the best analysis of American foreign policy/military leadership's attitude.

Heard somewhere recently that the London underground is so hot because of residual energy, and if they just shut it for 6 months it would be nearly freezing. Why didn’t they do this during lockdown, was it needed for essential workers?

Two Finns go on holiday. They arrive and go out drinking, carry on all day in silence. Then the next day the same, not a word spoken. Finally on the third day one turns to the other and says "it's alright here isn't it?" His friend looks at him and says "Are we here to talk or are we here to drink?"

The best description of Chis Evan’s I have ever heard. Get Phil to play him when they make the Jon Ronson biography.

You’ve shaken your last Alabama.

This is a bit more like it. Had the let off, let’s see Ferguson send it to McKenna, knock down to Shankland or McLean. Goal made in Aberdeen.

Alright Scotland. Time to turn up, world stage, biggest team in the world, let’s show them what we can do. Live every moment of it.

Anyone seen analysis on strips with those little collars - see Uruguay - and how the teams perform. Got a feeling they might be the kiss of doom.

Loose to Brazil, by less than three goals and odds on we are through. This World Cup is weird.

This could be a typical Steve Clark game. Drab, poor football, Eamon Brophy pops up scores with the only shot on target. 1-1. We’re through.

Name a TV show you’re positive no on remembers but you

This tweet lives rent free in my head

Okay. Scotland will go in to the final game needing something from Brazil. We’ll be convinced we can do it - talk for France, Spain and Denmark games. Brazil will be on 4 points with a positive goal difference, and effectively qualified. … Then we’ll go and beat them.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Creeping Scottish existentialist dread that this is not enough. We need to score again, because Morocco and Brazil will pop in a few past us.

That pink strip seems to have been a banger of a seller for Scotland. Love it.

"I have held high office: the highest in the land. I know doctors, dentists, and architects. I speak from a position of moral and political authority here, (Rachel) Reeves."

But they will be shackled to CR7 with all that creativity expected to plant a ball on his head/toe while he meanders around the edge of the box. It will make them slow and easy to play against.

Right, calling it now. There will be a winner before extra time.

Tonights episode: No Going Back.

Pick a Bond villain from the photos you already have on your phone.

That’s an absolute scunner.

Good to see Magnus doing well, even if Facebooks AI doesn’t seem to agree.

Hearts would have taken a draw at half time, but that is still a scunner.
