The Oscars are positively useless.

I'm not really sure who or what that is, but it sounds important, so congratulations!

I don't care if he got away with it. It's fucking idiotic.

I'm sick of Ramires. He's fucking useless.

I agree. It's a ghost town.

I'd post more, but there's rarely any discussion in here. It's mostly some bloke who posts that he's seen Taken 3 and thought it was dope.

Respect for this Bobber. Raised a wry smile from myself.

I'm hilarious.

Been told I'm close to the sack at work.

One of the grievances is an untidy cupboard. Another is a job that I didn't even do.

Just fucking sack me already.

To be fair, suffering such a serious knee injury can harm anyone's game.

In a way, his form and value kinda limited his transfer options- more so when you remove Real Madrid from the equation. Was always going to be difficult moving on from Atletico unless someone coughed up ridiculous money, enter Monaco.

Well, I'm sure he had the option to just not leave Atletico, then. Surely a better decision than going to Monaco.

He hasn't played CL football in what, 5 years? His career has sort of been a joke when you think about it.

Playing for Porto and Atletico Madrid is hardly a joke, especially considering his form for both clubs. His move to Monaco tarnished what could've been a very good career.

Pretty sure it could have been a similar situation had FFP been around when they won it

But it wasn't...

I need to watch it again. I spent so much of the film desperately trying to work out what was happening with the plot I perhaps didn't appreciate it as much as I should have. It's probably better to just let it wash over you and to enjoy it for what it is.

Some review I read made the point that Doc doesn't have a clue what's happening, he's also smoking pot consistently and as the film is told from his perspective, his confusion over what's happening should be felt by the audience as well.

I think it's a hard film to enjoy, tbh. It's a weird mix of olden timey slapstick comedy, and a total drug haze.
I mean, it probably is one of PTA's weakest films, but that still makes it better than most director's best.

Inherent Vice.

Had a blast. It's hilarious. I have no idea what the fuck happened. But it's hilarious.

Jet lag has completely fucked me this time around.

Think I've slept about 20 hours in total since getting into Brisbane on Thursday morning.

That's a little under 7 hours a night, you gigantic pussy.

Oh, jog on.

Fact. There is literally no way you, nor I, nor anyone else for that matter, can prove if there was intent by Costa. Unless you have some sort of expansive ability to tap into the thought process of Diego Costa during that exact moment, there is, and always will, remain doubt. He's being judged on what we all saw, which was him chasing down a ball, one he was clearly fixed on, and didn't once take his eyes from his objective (the ball) to locate Can's position before planting his foot. His "reputation" certainly was used to portray the incident in a much different light to what actually unfolded. If you didn't see the incident and purely read what was written, you'd have thought he lined Can up and furiously landed a curb stomp of some sort. As the old adjective goes; innocent until proven guilty. No one can without a shadow of a doubt say the incident occurred with 100% intent. Period. A position backed by a number of ex-players; including Henry, G. Neville and Scholes.

Skrtel was even lucky to be on the pitch himself with his clear elbow on Costa in the first leg. Costa cops a lot of treatment from defenders, more than what most strikers receive, and he's yet to literally snap. He'll push the boundaries and give what he gets back, but it's important to remember that he's not some thug. It might be hard to believe, but Ronaldo has more red cards than Costa.

But we both know all the above means little to you. And with that, I've got nothing further to add.

Edit: spelling

Come on. It was intentional. He's a sneaky fucker. Let's move on.
