I return!
@mage – I am all about slow progress! 500pts. Pick heavy…must have been digging a trench.
1. It meant anything, not just TV. I looked at that list and I didn’t spot one thing that is funny. The Punisher is terrible. It is too much. Why all the superhero stuff at the moment? I saw the ‘animation’ on Black Panther and thought I had gone back in time! We watched the new Godzilla movie and if you take out all the crap with the people then it is an awesome film.
Superheroes do not work on the screen. Comics only unless you are the original Batman TV series. Watchmen was fun.
Anime? Another thing I lost interest in. Panty & Stocking is great, but that is as far as i’ll go. Attack on Titan was pretty good. I do like the ‘look’, but just can’t keep up.
I did see that Star Wars trailer. That is another thing that they just seem to be writing anything for. Sometimes known as the ‘curse of TNG’. Original Trek and B5.
However, at Jamie’s insistence we did start watching ‘Breaking Bad’. Halfway through series 4 and loving it. I was surprised how much I did enjoy it.
If we are just talking about TV then we always have ‘Still Game’ or ‘Peep Show’ on in the background, but I also like ‘Alan Partridge’, ‘Respectable’ (which is awesome) and ’15 Stories High’. I have the final episode of ‘Chernobyl’ to watch too. Very heavy, but they have made a fantastic job of it! If you haven’t seen it then get downloading.
As for modern Trek…I would rather have another mastectomy. 200pts.
Anyway, where do you get the time to paint all your stuff AND watch all this rubbish? 100pts.
There is some ‘strange’ things on YouTube. Even by some of my tastes there are some dark pockets of humanity out there. However, there are a few I “subscribe” to. A couple of former JW and Scientologists that are interesting and I love YT stuff about the LDS and Joseph Smith. I learn so much! There are also some very learned Rabbis I like to watch. However, my Hebrew is not as good as it was.
There is an awesome ‘trans’ lady that I like to listen to. ‘Rose of Dawn’ is the name of the channel and she is very vocal in her understanding of all that stuff. Facinating. No kidding.
My favourite is of course: Bases/Miles Johnston and his UFO/Supersoldiers/abductees. A very dangerous man in the way he exploits those with obvious mental illness.
2. I knew you would be a Magpie. All Wacoshop fiends are…I was. Since I stopped trying to play everything (but get around to playing nothing) I do more ‘window shopping’ then just snaffling everything I see. I do have to stop myself!
Being back here doesn’t help either…tempting bastards. No doubt sent by Satan.
Speaking of Satan, we went to where I used to play as a boy, for a wander with the Puggos and I was showing Eve and Jamie where they used to have the Black Masses and it still gives me the fear. The land is part of the ancestoral home of the Boweslyon family.
You need to start playing Infinity and stop wasting your time with lesser games. 500pts. An Infinity army cost £100 and you don’t need to to buy any books to go with your minis. I wish the new starter set would hurry up and get here. Shiney!
Then again, when I was playing 40Gay I started a Black Templar army just because they released that Chaplain in ‘bone’ adorned armour and a power fist. Did I go to far? No…it was shining at me.
3. How come you stapped training? I remember what a girl you were when you started and we started talking about it. 1000pts. However, you quickly changed my ‘opinion’. You really took to it! Try another style/system…remember you still owe me a fight sometime. I know what you are thinking, “…old bastard has had a few strokes!” However, remember that I do a tiny bit of Wing Chun and that was invented by a one-armed Nun.
I always hated running. So boring. A bit of cross-country or a TAB with 40lbs was fun. Saying that I need to be out to try and strengthen my left leg/arm. Maybe i’ll restart training with you?
Warhammer World is pretty good. When I lived in Sheffield I just used to get the train to Nottingham if I wasn’t working on a saturday. It only takes 40 minutes and was £9 return. The buses in Nottingham blow. If you ever head that way then you must stop by for afternoon tea. I insist.
Steel Panther rule! 10000pts. The first band I took the boy to see. Thing about Steel Panther, or Spinal Tap, is that when they are taking the piss they are better that 95% of real rock bands.
Airbourne – very good too! 100pts. As are Electric Six. When I explained the end og the ‘Gay Bar’ video to Derek he almost puked. Me thinks the lady doth protest too much…
What kind of tank? Are you joking?
As for the “black things”…they are Infinity chocolate Traktor Muls. They carry stuff and are Remote missile launchers and minesweepers. Very nasty. They are waiting for a few coats of Russian Uniform green.
Nice bikers! 200pts. I hope those barrels are getting drilled out?
@ceppie – I know what you mean. 500pts. Since we went for a wander this morning I have been ordered to “take it easy or else!”
1. I sometimes find myself watching recruits going through basic training documentaries. I watched a series where they followed RM’s Commandos from induction to their first posting. When they did their final tests and got their green berets I was in tears.
That is also a thing that gets me…all the waffle from dicks.
I have a similar problem with American crime documentaries. Why the vile soundtracks? It is hard to follow the information when it sounds like I am at a rave. They also recap everything every ten minutes.
I have been watching a thing called ‘My 600lb Life’. They are all just low IQ trailer trash. I cannot tear myself away from the stupidity.
2. Oh, I really believe you! 500pts. Do you do standup?
I also read a lovely email from your game store!
My Magpie moments tend to be because I have some pocket money left.
3. You go for it! I’ll slip you a 20 if you need some books…just let me know. I would be tempted into doing something similar, but I think it would be too much for me. I would hate to get all fired-up and then have drop-out or take time off.
2112 – rules. 200pts. The double album had the story to go with it. Have you read it?
I slopped some darker paint on for depth later, but the HDR (or something) is on and it is just the camera and my ancient desk lamp.
@oriskany – we will see you on the other side of the storm! Stay safe and warm.
@limburger – hot enough to burn a man’s conscience! 100pts.
Is that show not based on something from Black Mirror? I watched an episode of that new Start Trek series. No thanks. The same with that ‘Another Life’ on Netflix. I think they are money laundering scams.
Those YT channels are just like arguing what is better Mohammed Ali or Brake Fluid! 100pts. As fake as the Waterhouse painting I have in the hall.
What is the GoT woman getting a waft of?
I did enjoy watching a YT channel where the guy makes the most amazing paper airplanes. I like to live on the edge.
2. You never just buy a mini because it is cool? Really? Not even once?
Of the 16000pts of Chaos that I accumulated I doubt anything was built form the box. Even the Marines.
@tuffyears – Tasty. 500pts. However, they are not Thousand Sons anymore are they?
@horati0nosebl0wer – moneyshot! Well, as long as we don’t have any ‘friendly fire’ we will be fine! 1000pts.
The Void was bloody terrible. I have seen a few movies during my 52 years and that film sounded like a doorbell. Dung. I have only seen 2 movies that were Lovecraft related that weren’t horrific – Reanimator and The Beyond.
Perfume was pretty good. 100pts. Taxi Driver = totally over-rated. The movie is like watching paint dry. I did like where he took that lady for their first date.
I would take a guess that you are a younger person. ‘Dark’ movies are never really scary or unnerving (‘Martyrs’ for the story) as they are just movies. You really don’t want to be exposed to that sort of stuff. Not good for the soul. I have seen that ‘Midsommar’, but it is just another ‘The Wicker Man’. Now there is a dark film!
The most vile movie I ever saw was called ‘Salo’ and is supposed to be base on the book by the MdS. It is supposed to be ‘art’ and all that crap, but it is just filthy and if you can watch more than half of this then there is something wrong with you and I suggest you visit your doctor.
My capsule advice: watch nice things!
2. Really? You don’t just go “yoink” in the style of Snake? Now I do have worries about you. 500pts.
3. Grooming? Once I am upright I am ready to go. False teeth rule. 100pts.
