A little fat Scottish lad. (Fall hard, love harder.)
Doesn't look like happening anytime soon.
Was it me screaming at them being a bunch of useless cunts?

I must stop doing that...

I wouldn't have installed the Forest app on my phone if I'd known it was going to bleep at me every fucking time Oliver Glasner blows off.

I guess it's not every team who can beat Spain.

Celtic actually contrived to be worse than last week. How is that possible?
Trying and failing to understand how this Celtic team has got this far into the league season with a 100% record...

Oh, and Hipsway.
I'm also wrong, cos I missed Marillion (with and without Fish) and, ironically, Fish, and Baby Queen and more I don't want to think about right now...
At a guess, the ten acts I've seen live the most...

Suede
Ultravox
Hue and Cry
Manic Street Preachers
The Ruts DC
Then Jerico
Gene
Artmagic
China Crisis
Gary Numan

Having removed John Foxx and Duran Duran for not quite making the cut...

It's only taken the 48 years to get around to this. You'd think the sods would rustle up a goal at least.

Apparently Ski Sunday was still running. I didn't know it was 1976.

Is also like to emphasize that the word Nottingham has a G in it. And two Ts.
We also got "for all intents and purposes" at least four times.
Is Ally McCoist the only man in telly still saying "at this moment in time" every ninety seconds or so?

I often get "Go Reds" type catcalls walking around London in a Forest top. Of course when I come to Glasgow I get an East Midlands voice complaining as I walk into my hotel, on the basis that he's a Notts County fan.

I don't actually think I've met one of those before...

Faintly amused that today's match at Ibrox featured players called things like McGeady, McCrorie and Devlin but they're not necessarily playing for the team one might think they are...

Actually, this one I can get on board with TBH.
Yes, and he fantasised about stringing piano wire at neck height to kill cyclists in his village.

Dying to point Jim Smith at this and retire to a safe distance.

The correct answer is "Systems of Romance, Vienna, Rage In Eden" and I will not be taking questions at this time.
I’ll take any three album run from R.E.M. between Fables and Automatic.

Six times, she sez. I think there are maybe four films I've seen six times, if you're lucky. None of them is Star Trek. I've not seen any Star Wars or Marvel film so much as one times. I don't think I know what 'Ghibli' means.

I wasn't made for these (six) times.
Film you’ve watched more than six times with a gif.

Hard mode: no Star Trek, Star Wars, Marvel, Disney, or Ghibli.

In autumn 1979, I saw City of Death. In summer 1980, I saw it again. A couple of weeks later - literally the day I didn't see The Leisure Hive as I was in an outdoor swimming pool in Ayrshire at the time - I randomly saw The Beast Must Die.

Twenty years on, I saw it again and clocked Duggan in it.

If I'm very honest, I barely know who Christopher Nolan is, and I'm at peace with that stance.
