      Safe to say they have divided opinions, which I suppose is the point.

              I was talking to a young one in here yesterday and she was telling me about something we need to do for an upcoming project, as in she needs to do it but needs my help.

              I joked 'What do you mean "we" pale face?'

              I was met with a WTF face.

              'It's a quote, do you not know it?'

              'WTF?'

              'From the Lone Ranger!'

              'Who?'

              'Tonto says it to the Lone Ranger'

              'Tont what?'

              I then explain in depth about the programme and the joke, etc so she Google's it and then replies, 'You do know I was only born in 1996 don't you?'

                Also, LOL at the Tayto v's King debate.

                  I've seen young adults eating crisp sandwiches at parties.
                  Gone full 'Glinner' since June 2022.

                      I tried eating crispy feathers last night. They were tasty at the time but they left me a little down in the dumps.

                            Yep, if we were in Schengen drivers licence would probably work, but we're not. It works to the UK (but not with Ryanair) because of the common travel area.

                              Before and after the county final the other day there was lots of chat about it being 31 years ago since they'd won, that team was mostly lads who I'd grown up with and had been playing together under the same trainer since under 10's.
                              That evening I was telling my father about it and he was talking about the previous winning team that his uncles played on in 1931 when he was a baby but he would have known most of the team growing up, indeed I remember a few of them myself as old men. Pictures were dragged out and then I went online to see if there was a video of the match on you tube to show him. Instead I found a snippet of coverage of the '91 game and it was mind blowing to see all those I now know as oul lads, as young as the team of kids that lined out on Sunday. It's hard to explain the feeling, something quite disconcerting like culture shock to be looking at three groups all locked in time at the same cliched football pictures across ninety years.

                              It's just occurred to me that I knew more of the '31 team personally than I do lads on the current team!

                                    On a related, but entirely different note,reading about Dean Stockwell (RIP) earlier today, I saw a picture of him presumably from his 20's when he looked to me almost unrecognisable compared to 'peak' Dean Stockwell, which to me is Quantum Leap. Aging and the passage of time is a very different thing when looking backwards with pictures/videos than just talking about it.

                                        genuinely is a lovely country with great people, especially if you get them started about rugby. It’s still quite a new country, they apparently sacked the entire police force in the recent past and made them reapply and satisfaction levels went from low single digits to high 90s. I spent a week there and found people to be very nice, but like any country I’m sure you could find trouble if you wanted it.

                                          Mates dad used to work for both. They shared a distribution centre but never a factory.

                                          Then he said that he’s not sure what the story is now ffs

                                          Anyway they are 100% not the same crisps

                                                          It's actually just about exactly as good as it ever was which is about 10% as good as people make it out to be. It is the exact same scenario all the time they have now just removed the pretence that there is any real plot or drama and have let it become just an improv comedy show set in 5* hotels.

                                                              Someone else I know watched it at home and wasn't that impressed. Some films are meant to be watched on the big screen with big sounds I reckon. I went for IMAX and I think it benefited from that.

                                                                It's not even that funny anymore.
                                                                I'm enjoying it although the most recent episode wasn't the greatest i thought. It's difficult to pinpoint why i like it though as all the characters are pretty dislikable, it can't really be like how any huge multi-billion media org is ran (or maybe) and storyline is pretty outrageous at times.

                                                                Brian Cox adds so much to it though.

The youngest thought it was hilarious, middle one found it boring and eldest was horrified and said it was the most racist thing she'd ever seen (episode where the Major uses the N word). I did make the mistake of trying to give the cultural context of the times, which only made it worse.

Despite losing 12kg since the start of the year, my fasting glucose levels have continued to creep up (now 6.3 mmol/l) and well into the pre-diabetic area. There really isn't much scope for reducing sugar intake a lot further, though I suppose I'll try cutting the carbs further and getting a lot more exercise. Just so annoying when I'm feeling much better than I have in years.

                                                                                      That evening I was telling my father about it and he was talking about the previous winning team that his uncles played on in 1931 when he was a baby but he would have known most of the team growing up, indeed I remember a few of them myself as old men. Pictures were dragged out and then I went online to see if there was a video of the match on you tube to show him. Instead I found a snippet of coverage of the '91 game and it was mind blowing to see all those I now know as oul lads, as young as the team of kids that lined out on Sunday. It's hard to explain the feeling, something quite disconcerting like culture shock to be looking at three groups all locked in time at the same cliched football pictures across ninety years.

                                                                                      It's just occurred to me that I knew more of the '31 team personally than I do lads on the current team!

It is the exact same scenario all the time they have now just removed the pretence that there is any real plot or drama and have let it become just an improv comedy show set in 5* hotels.

                                                                                                                prez who oversaw one of the greatest increases in fossil fuel extraction in us history lecturing the plebs about how they must do more after flying in on private jet from one of his multiple mansions.
                                                                                                                remember his utterly narcissistic and covid rule flouting 60th birthday party recently also.
                                                                                                                Yet the Irish media still go weak at the knees about him as he’s a dem and patronised us a few times

                                                                                                                GW bush had the decency to slink off the stage and take up painting, Clinton at least pretended he was trying to help out when he broke cover
                                                                                                                struggling to think of an ex pres who sold out so blatantly after leaving office (Netflix deals etc)
