As a massive fan of the first Die Hard film, let me be the first to say that this looks fucking godawful.

PJ Harvey - Vocals, rhythm guitar
J Mascis - Lead guitar
Kim Gordon - Bass
Drums - Clive Deamer

No clue how this would work, but it'd be fun.

Alternatively, I might switch out Mascis with Peter Buck, and Kim Gordon with Colin Greenwood. Might make a more coherent band.

Any of you cool cats want to give me some essential hip-hop albums? All I really have is 36 Chambers and I like that.

Merci.

Slick Rick - The Great Adventures of Slick Rick

(Also, not an ESSENTIAL album, but you should really listen to Killer Mike - R.A.P. Music)

Yeah, if it's on I do those sort of things.

It's just the way the game works, you're not some sort of superior gamer just because you score REAL goals, it's a really sad attitude to have.

This.

I don't necessarily seek those chances, but if they're on, of course I'm gonna take them.

I do like your choices though. Miles Davies and Gil Scott Heron. Though if you had to pick an album from Gil and Brian Jackson, I'd pick 1980. Great pop funk record.

Hey Sam, since you love Joe Rogan, you should listen to his interview on Marc Maron's podcast WTF.

I guess if you're a fan of network shows this could be a bad time for TV, but the current line-up of premium cable shows is fucking awesome.

Breaking Bad, Boardwalk Empire, Game of Thrones, Mad Men, Homeland etc.

Louie might be the best show on TV right now.

Also, I'm not necessarily a huge fan of the show, but a lot of people really like Sons of Anarchy.

Tbh, I only listed that as I couldn't think of any more.

I like Ashton Kutcher as an actor, so I started watching it when he joined (I did watch the first 8 season, they were alright). I wouldn't be fussed if it ended though.

I think the main reason I don't like Community is because the characters aren't really believable. You can't imagine them being real people, whereas you can in Two And a Half Men. Thinking about it, that's my main reason for not liking certain shows, characters not being believable.

1) you're the only person I've ever encountered who said he liked Ashton Kutcher as an actor.

2) I disagree about the believability thing. At least in the first season of Community.

Revolver is probably one of the worst films ever made.

So what? Chelsea were the better side but we were never being dominated.

dom·i·nant

1. Exercising the most influence or control.
2. Most prominent, as in position; ascendant.

That's not to say you were completely dominated, but Chelsea were the better side. Hence they were dominant.

Clearly? Not at all. It's been even so far.

Was 60% possession in favour of Chelsea at the time, but sure.

I was a die hard PES guy all throughout the PS2 era. I simply thought the games were better, and more entertaining than Fifa could ever hope to be.

But I can't for the life of me get into this current gen of PES games... and I do think Fifa is "head and shoulders" above it now.
