    [Technology] Celebrity Jungle

    Presumably to post on this thread you must have read some of the previous posts and have watched some Celebrity Jungle in order to disparage it. Why didn't you spend this time reading Solzhenitsyn? And how on earth do you feel that you can belittle people watching this sort of programme when you...

    [NSC] Is this Groundhog Day?

    Is this the least amusing thread in NSC history?

    [Albion] Sander Berge

    And the conversation after the tweet above says that he wants to go to Spain, even if it means less money than the Premier League.

    [Football] Pickford england's no. 1 - really?

    No, he could have taken it. Nothing in the laws to stop him.

    [Albion] Early leavers

    Really? Do you have anything to back that up?

    [Albion] The penalty

    No. It's not. But treading on someone's foot is classed as a careless challenge or possibly a trip. It's not just contact, it's contact that comes under one of the definitions of foul play. In the same way, grabbing hold of someone's shirt is not necessarily a foul. It is only a foul if you...

    [Albion] Andy Madley today’s ref ..what think you?

    I did too. If you take your blue and white specs off he had a good game. Played good advantages; didn't blow up for every little thing; and played on several times when Everton players were writhing on the floor as if they'd been shot from the stands.

    [Football] Keane in Trouble?

    As he was going down the tunnel after the match, Michael Keane had a go at the 4th Official and then squirted liquid from his bottle into the 4th's face. Be interesting to see if it is in the ref's report...

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Everton *** Official Match Thread ***

    Pardew in the press box. Booooooooo!

    [Drinking] Fridat Night Drinking Thread ! ( no one else is apparently?)

    Reyneke Organic Cab Merlot from South Africa. £10.99 from Waitrose: more than I'd usually spend for Fridat boozing but well worth it. I had the Chenin Blanc from the same people a couple of weeks ago which was possibly even better (particularly as it was on offer at £8.99...)

    [Technology] Sophie McKinna

    It's not about her specifically but all the other people who struggle with feelings of inadequacy and self-hatred because they are or consider themselves to be fat or ugly. If you knew someone who dreads going out because they struggle with their weight and get men shouting insults (always from...

    [Politics] The BBC - (Rant about Impartiality)

    You may not be making it up but you are certainly mistaken. It would have said that the story is too old, not you...

    [Politics] The BBC - (Rant about Impartiality)

    No, because as pointed out already, it isn't true.

    [News] Bacon Back On The Menu

    It is bad for you but not significantly so at an individual level.

    [Music] 12 inch singles that blew your tiny mind

    I was going to post this. I first heard it playing in HMV on Oxford St. Didn't know who or what it was but absolutely blew me away.

    [Football] Right then. After that demonstration... VAR? Yes or No?

    But what is the difference between a marginal call and a clear and obvious mistake. You are just moving the line of argument. Again, you are just moving the line of argument - is there a millimetre of daylight between the attackers back heel and the defenders shin? Or if a millimetre isn't...
