choice incomprehensible posts from britisher threads

Great life story but terrible actor

who is this american version of david blaine? 'Bizarro'? The guy who supposedly walked on the Thames? My mothers boyfriend made a point to call from Australia to let me know this fool levitated next to a bus and put his finger through a quarter. When he pulled his finger away THE COIN WAS COMPLETELY INTACT. My mom is mad impressed by the guy too. How do you get to your 60's and still believe this stuff is for real???

okay i have no idea what the fuck 'campari g&t' is talking about on this thread: Have You Ever Been Arrested?

some kind of scary drug deal gone bad situation but fuck if i can understand his posts

it's about salad

Poor guy though. I agree w/ you wins that he is rattled by a traumatic experience. I hope its just that and that he will be able to calm down eventually.

lesson: never take legal drugs

Seriously.

I dunno, campari and g&t sounds legal and refreshing

the patterns aren't that hard to discern

*pours out a sainsburys taste the difference harissa dressing garnished with extra mature cheddar, lime juice and mark and spencers classic beef jerky*

i missed an ebay auction due to being momentarily bewildered by reading cg&t's idiotic tale, still fuming tbh

where is gareth when we need him? i wouldn't even know if he posted anymore.

Missed the link and thought you guys were talking about the cheddar sandwich thread.

fish fingers kinda universal. in France they are known as Le Petite Doigts de la Poisson.

Polystyrene

It's basically the guy who reads and enthusiastically comments on DiS/Eurogamer/Guardian/Cookd and Bombd evey day depending on what he's into right
dunno what the specialist football equivalent is but he is probably quite vigorously snippy about how underappreciated Michael Carrick is by the dull-witted common fan?

okay, now my computer has a virus thanks obama

I'm not too confident at the moment.

And Jones is in as wicketkeeper to strengthen the batting. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/cricket/england/6140748.stm
But perhaps this means they might play Monty?

Lets hope Tres finds his form quickly and him and Strauss get some good century partnerships so the pressure isn't on Cook/Pietersen/Bell.
If they indeed choose all three. They might choose Jones and Giles so the batting is stronger if they decide to go with an extra bowler incase Fred isn't up to bowling as much as he normally would.

I don't think Mahmood is up to it. We're gonna miss Simon Jones.
Lets hope Harmison and Hoggard find their form too when it matters.

This was posted above and is absolutely fucking hilarious. I guess he hopes a bunch of people find their form.

I wonder if they actually played Monty.

RIP Simon Jones.

Now Bill, I ain't gonna play dirty with NFL. RIP Simon Jones otm though, and iirc they played Monty when it was too late and he got clobbered

Hahahahahaha touché. To be honest I'd love to know what that post meant!

I love all sports no matter where from. If I lived in England jamaca or India I'm sure I'd be a cricket junkie.

All sports? I used to think I was like that, but I've soured on a few. That post is mostly names btw, all the technical stuff is implicit - unlike in baseball, every player has a fixed number of innings (two) and everyone, including the bowlers (pitchers), must bat - so balancing a side of 11 players becomes of paramount importance

it helps to know that Pfunkboy is the most relentlessly pessimistic follower of the England cricket team ;)

To balance things up a little, I find the titles of a lot of American threads on ILX incomprehensible, that's without actually reading the threads, esp. anything to do with American sport.

where would we be without balance? toppled over, that's where.

Toppled off our pins on to our arses, that's where!

Me old cock sparrow china guv'nor!

underappreciated post

Captures the "no, you made that up!" feeling I get every time I hear a new british town name

that's because you are the american equivalent of autumn almanac

should turn it into a 'humorous' 'wu tang names' style shirt and sell it on etsy

you're reminding me of the revulsion I felt a decade ago perusing a Time Out headline of "Straight Out of Brompton".
