Re: Trump: Impeach is the new Orange

Now this is potentially interesting. With regards to Greenland, he just said "You can say yes and we'll be very grateful, or you can say no and we'll remember." Is that the first sign of him backing down? As in he won't actually do anything but sulk? He also said that they'd definitely not use forc...

Re: Trump: Impeach is the new Orange

Anyone listened to any of this Davos speech? He is such an imbecile it honestly beggars belief. I just watched him say "Greenland is vast and uninhabited, there's rare earth, well there's no such thing as rare earth, just rare processing, but there's so much vast amounts of rare earth, rare earth un...

Re: My Band (New Music!)

I totally forgot to share this when it came out. But our second single off the upcoming EP came out in November! https://open.spotify.com/track/6Dmgh8x4D2pJ7OkA32Ic9W?si=50134b9d8eb74a0c It's done remarkably well despite us not spending any money promoting it. We peaked at almost 2500 monthly listen...

An "iconic symbol of the town" :lol:

Just about sums up Ilkeston to be fair, a space devoid of anything of note.

Honestly I hope he has a stroke and cops it.

Re: The Room 102 thread - for things you love or just having a bloody good praise!

I rewatched Octopussy over the weekend because I wanted to see if it stood up as one of my top five Bond's. The answer is yes. I cannot dislike a Bond movie that has scenes like these in: https://www.bondsuits.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/octopussy-crocodile-sub.jpg https://www.bondsuits.com/wp-co...

Re: Trump: Impeach is the new Orange

Even if Democrats take over, the damage is generational. Good, to be honest. A more federalised Europe that looks after itself and with closer economic ties is a good thing in my book. Europe is more consumer friendly than America in general, the more the area can be seen as a stable power the more...

Absolutely ridiculous. The quality of teaching in this country really is in crisis.

Re: The Room 101 thread - for things you hate or just having a bloody good moan

Banning things. Always strikes me as the absolute laziest and most reductive way to try and solve a problem which more often than not doesn't fix anything anyway and only leads to more problems being created. This whole furore among the political classes about children's access to the internet that ...

Re: General Gaming News

That is so hilariously unnecessary when it's meant to just be an article about what happened around his involvement in Godus.

Gives off big 'journalist who wishes he was a fiction writer' vibes on top of being rather rude.

Re: Trump: Impeach is the new Orange

I'm not sure about it reducing the impact of them so much as that when the internet is being flooded with AI-made child pornography images it would be very easy for those pictured in Epstein photos to turn around and simply claim that any further leaked images are obviously fake.

Re: Trump: Impeach is the new Orange

He's going to do it isn't he. He kept going on about Venezuela in the same way. His brain isn't complex enough for subtle gestures, he keeps talking about the US taking Greenland one way or another because that's exactly what he's going to try and do. This year is going to be a rough one. Venezuela ...

You guys want a really contentious opinion? It didn't make my top 5 but I still rate Quantum of Solace in my top 10.

Sorry, not sorry.

:lol: Don't worry Pete you haven't upset me. It's not exactly making my short-list for greatest movies of all time. In answer to your question, Chris, I think I'd have to rewatch a lot of the earlier ones to say for certain how I feel they hold up now, but Die Another Day is still definitely down ne...
