I'm on the way home from seeing Def Leppard. I thought I would have a good time but it was soooooooooo good! And I even had 5 pints on a week night. Pour some sugar on me, I'm done.

This is making me chuckle. Watch the whole thing, it's worth it.

You definitely should call him that and never ever explain where it's come from.

Happy New Year peoples.

If 2018 was crap or meh (yup), then I hope 2019 is kinder to you.

If 2018 was good, then may 2019 be even better.

[Slow Ben]

Happy new year you magnificent bastards!

[TheRetiredBridgeburner]

Happy new year to you all

Had some lovely news to start the new year: Dad has another post-op check, and they've agreed to take him off the beta blockers and blood thinners a few months early because his recovery is going so well. So pleased!

Ahhhhh snap-uh-pap-ah-papple van winkle!

I just have the biggest grin on my face (flippin' ear to ear). Man City beat them slack jawed droolers from Liverpool.

Where you at Macky? Better be in the pub drinking away the shame.

Yes. Drinking away the shame of narrowly losing what will be our toughest PL fixture of the season.
Veritably drowning my sorrows at being top of the league having played our closest competition twice already.

Bar Lovren and Mane I'd say Liverpool played pretty damn well. Ferandinho was the difference in the middle of the park an Lovren the difference at the back, he just goes to sleep so often!
Also Kompany lucky to have stayed on the field, and 11mm away from being 2-2, all told I'll take it, it was still a solid performance

Got a short story due out in an anthology in March.

Aw come on. You have to admit it stings (just a little?).

It was pretty much even stats across the board when they showed the after game analysis and so the match could have easily gone the other way (probably would have if home field was different).

[Macros]

Not really.
Liverpool are so good this year they're making United fans support city. Its glorious

[Mentalist]

Won our quarter-final in style, 3-0 despite only having 3 subs (granted, the other team only had 2)

Had a breakaway when I took the ball off a midfielder at half-line, but just as I was about to go one on one with the keeper, the defender whom I rushed past hooked both of my feet cleanly off the ground.

Did a proper wipeout on the turf; and now I'm missing all skin on top of my left knee, which sucks. But we won, so I'm still happy.

Being a football fan is skirting dangerously close to being a masochist. Why do we do it? Ten years ago my team was proudly surviving the UEFA cup group stage, having beaten Udinese and Spartak Moscow (sure, we received a massive drumming from HSV in the knockout phase, but hey ho); these days we find ourselves in the bottom half of the second division with no end to the pain in sight. Where did it all go so horribly wrong?

Well now, if you could consistently accurately answer that question there's a future for you in sports management.

Wow. The temps here today tickled to the low 60s (Fahrenheit). That's way unusual for Jan. 6. Maybe I should be posting this in the 'Messing with your groove' thread because it's another example of global climate change? Yes? No? Meh?
