I think this theory makes a lot of sense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't agree with what you said 5 years ago on twitter so I'm going to ruin your life now. This doesn't read right, surely there's a British word for those boomer types? and Tory voting ******* doesn't work in more polite settings.

Rds1983 Posted January 10, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted January 10, 2020 Christian Benteke... Should be nothing but happy memories but I think I've lost an hour of my life today reading 30 pages of back and forth in the transfer thread and now don't want to go anywhere near it again anytime soon. For the love of God please don't reply to this and restart the conversation in here I just want to vent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leemond2008 Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 No one is talking about the fact that it is 4 years today since David Bowie died. I'm not one to claim ownership over an artist but the way that everyone was a David Bowie fan 4 years ago was sickening, they posted shit on their instagram and their twitter shit saying how gutted they were because he wrote a song that they knew once upon a time. I've not mourned a celebrity like I did Bowie, it **** gutted me, I grew up with his music, there were albums I didn't like when I was younger that I couldn't do without today, the man was an absolute genius. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted January 12, 2020 Moderator Share Posted January 12, 2020 I'm kind of ambivalent about Bowie. I like bits from a lot of the early albums but as soon as you get to Scary Monsters, you can forget it He absorbed a lot of other peoples ideas and he did in turn out some good stuff on the back of that but he never really gave the credit where it was due, he was happy to be viewed as this great inovator which he really wasn't. So Bowie to me did some good stuff and did some absolute shite. He deserves his place in the history of Rock N Roll but not quite at the level he was elevated to 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 I am of a similar mind. He has a good greatest hits that could maybe be a single CD. I really like 3 of his songs and think around 10 others are pretty good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always found his persona very creepy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xela Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 - Driving. Took me about 25 mins to get across from one side of Sutton to the other yesterday. Roadworks, temporary traffic lights, every word removed in front turning right, people doing 23 in a 40 zone and other such annoyances. Its a stressful thing driving nowadays, especially around the West Midlands. - When I was out I saw a load of teenage lads on mountain bikes riding in the road, doing wheelies and stopping traffic. I'm not a nasty bloke but I hope a lorry mows them down and maims and disfigures them all. Little rocket polishers. - The size of modern cars nowadays. They are all huge SUV types. Driven by chunts who can't drive properly. - The Representative for Wellingborough in the Merc on the M6 yesterday constantly switching lanes without indicating. I hope you crash and lose a limb and an eyeball. Yeah, all motor related today i'm afraid. I'm glad I don't have to drive every day! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
