Obv a joke from A_CE, Gump was an enjoyable romp nothing more or less.

[A_CitizenErased]

What???

Refer to my post above.

Was a joke, but I felt the biggest fuck up they ever made was 1994. I would have been four at the time. I obviously didn't realise it until I was much older and have seen the films what a joke it was. As the years went on The Academy have gotten so much worse.

[eamonhonda]

What???



He looks like a clown, doubt it will go through I only realised last night when I was reading something that some Irish judge has recently knocked that Eircom 3 strikes rule on the head as it is a breach of peoples privacy which I think is a good thing.

yeah i heard the realised this and quietly just said nothing, it was a bit ridiculous anyway

Just installed the ram I ordered last week in my Macbook, 8gb & an SSD the thing is absolutely flying

[Strewelpeter]

I know yiz are all just trying to goad me into letting off my Forrest Gump is Evil and the Gulf War could not have happened without it rant...well yiz can all just fuck off and if you are dumb enough to enjoy that fucking imbicilic treacle then that's your hard luck!

[Teddie]

lol no, Forrest Gump is a twee cheese board at best.

Where as Shawshank isn't? Shawshank is just as cheesey. For a best picture award I felt gump is more deserving, excellent acting, very good story which was really well told and the various settings and locations made it alot more impressive then then 2 hours in a prison. 3 Great films but for best picture I think Gump isn't a terrible selection, unless I'm wrong on what Best picture is supposed to entail.

Oh right, was a pretty tight year I think The Shawashank Redemption is fantastic but I haven't seen Pulp Fiction is a long time so that's a little fuzzy for me but I also really enjoyed Forest Gump a lot.

Yeah was a little mad, when they tried the same to UPC they said go fuck yourself fair dues to them, reading on the same site last night that only in the last few days EMI are trying to sue the state for not enforcing this law.

when we're on the subject of 1994 I think Leon is a masterpiece that often gets overlooked by the big 3

[Strewelpeter]

Bah! not much point in trying to explain it.
If you don't get what's wrong with that repulsive movie then it worked, Ignorance is indeed bliss and you are probably better off living in that little bubble

[Strewelpeter]

I put it in the Cousins the other night
Those blessed few who despise FG will love Down Terrace. Fantastic little film.

Pulp fiction is probably the best movie of the last twenty years, never really understood the shawshank love or similarly the Forrest gump hatred, both decent entertaining but hardly remarkable movies.

They haven't gone away you know. Part 798 in an eternal litany of Republican scumminesness

Derry has been awarded the UK City of Culture for next year and Comhaltas were all set to announce last weekend that the All Ireland would be held for the first time ever in the North to coincide with that.
Then last Wednesday some horrible creature called Dr Ann McLoskey appears on the radio whinging that it shouldn't be allowed and starts ranting about the 'UK' City of culture banner, yada yada, 800 years of cultural imperialism, yada yada, excuse me while I wipe the drool off my chin , how dare they call it LondonDerry bullshit. I nearly puked listening to the invidious cunt.
Then on Thursday (complete coincidence obviously ) two bombs go off in Derry and Comhaltas announce on Sunday announce that for security reasons the Fleadh won't go to Derry.

FFS!

[davepoke/her]

I only seen Pulp Fiction for the first time a few weeks ago. I've never been more engrossed in a film than I was watching that and it instantly jumped to my favourite movie ever.

Just had a bizarre phone call from Betfair. I reckon they've called me at least three times in the last few months to 'talk about how I am getting on with betfair', only once did they offer me a free bet of sorts. I probably should have just asked each time.

Just now some Betfair guy called and and spent nearly 10 minutes talking to me about football...

What what team do I support (YWNA)?
How do I think their season is going? (not great).
Tomorrow night's Carling Cup Semi Final - He informs me that Liverpool have lots of old heads who know how to close it out - Gerrard, Carragher (Will Carra even play? Hope not). He hopes Liverpool win () because City are just spending money to win, he supports Arsenal.
Who I think will win the league (City), who he hopes will win the league (anyone but City, 'even Spurs').

Asked me if I ever bet on Liverpool (sometimes), then went through all the odds on the match...
Perhaps I should have asked him if he fancied coming over to watch the match.

Anyhow, pretty dodgy policy from Betfair, you wouldn't want to be some degen who just needs a bit of encouragement.



TL;Dr, have stuck 5k on Liverpool ftw tomorrow night.

What's Magnolia?

[Lord Sir Banter]

What's Magnolia?

Magnolia is a neutral to warm white (as the petals in the picture of the plant), noted as being the 'standard' color of household paint, other than white. However, the color called "Magnolia" in UK paint is closer to peach rather than the rose-lavender white of the web color. It is used in property selling as a neutral, inoffensive color thought to maximize the saleability of a property. As such, it is available in bulk quantities at discounted rates and is often associated with new-build

Well its extremely unlikely to happen tbf. But Cricket Ireland have to be applauded for putting a strong plan in place to improve the game here. Good to see imo

[Opr]

I actually meant to ask one of the betting people here this question which came to mind again reading AJ's post. Now that soccer prices are almost always dictated by Betfair isn't the amount of loliverpool money which follows the team blindly distorting the price which would mean they are almost always a good lay ? Or is enough good money always in the market to correct this ?

A guy was driving down the M4 motorway in England with his blonde girlfriend and she piped up,

"I think those people in the car next to us are from Wales".

"Why do you think that ?" he said.

"Well, the kids are writing on the window and it says "stit ruoy su wohs".

Hans, a middle-aged German tourist on his first visit to Orlando, Florida, finds the red light district and enters a large brothel. The madam asks him to be seated and sends over a young lady to entertain him.
They sit and talk, frolic a little, giggle a bit, drink a bit, and she sits on his lap. He whispers in her ear and she gasps and runs away! Seeing this, the madam sends over a more experienced lady to entertain the gentleman.

They sit and talk, frolic a little, giggle a bit, drink a bit, and she sits on his lap. He whispers in her ear, and she too screams, "No!" and walks quickly away.

The madam is surprised that this ordinary looking man has asked for something so outrageous that her two girls will have nothing to do with him. She decides that only her most experienced lady, Lola, will do. Lola has never said no, and it's not likely anything would surprise her. So the madam sends her over to Han's. The sit and talk, frolic a little, giggle a bit, drink a bit, and she sits on his lap. He whispers in her ear and she screams, "NO WAY, BUDDY!" and smacks him as hard as she can and leaves.

Madam is by now absolutely intrigued, having seen nothing like this in all her years of operating a brothel. She hasn't done the bedroom work herself for a long time, but she's sure she has said yes to everything a man could possibly ask for. She just has to find out what this man wants that has made her girls so angry. Besides she sees a chance to teach her employees a lesson.

So she goes over to Han's and says that she's the best in the house and is available. She sits and talks with him. They frolic, giggle, drink and then she sits in his lap.

Han's leans forwards and whispers in her ear, "Can I pay in Euros?"

Fair dues to them as they probably could have said fck off. Really has to be a cut-off point somewhere like the 'weighed in' in horseracing or the podium in Formula One. If the winner of the 3.30 at Ascot last Saturday transpires to fail his drug test then they won't be paying out on the second in a months time.
