Only you lot could make domestic abuse so funny :ade:

 

[Thelonious]

"Ellie Harrison keeps puppies in the basement while she's frigging off" I'm still giggling at that

:avblol: :baelol:

Not sure what White was on regarding how to say "Moutinho":

You hear in the first ten seconds both Moutinho himself and the interviewer say his name. "-inho", like "-iño" in Spanish, is the sign of a diminutive, and for all intents and purposes, they're pronounced the same, so "Moutinho" should rhyme with "el niño".

What White seems to be recreating is the English pronunciation of the "-ão" ending, which is for big things, like Felipão ("Big Phil")…

[Thelonious]

[pedant] he was told that was the pronounciation [/pedant]

 

[spooky]

[pedant] I have nothing to say but look at me, I'm being as big a prick as you guys [/pedant]

 

[Éperons]

Right. I'm just saying he was told wrong news. Did those fellows also tell him the name of the stadium is being changed?

 

[spooky]

IF TY EVER EATS ANYTHING ON THE POD AGAIN, HE'S SACKED.

 

[Thelonious]

IF TY EVER EATS ANYTHING ON THE POD AGAIN, HE'S SACKED.

DAFUQ? I didn't eat anything this week.

 

[spooky]

Towards the end mate. Unacceptable. Spoke to Flav and he disagrees, he wants you off the pod today.

 

[Thelonious]

you must be high

 

[spooky]

High on excel formulas and project delays.

RE: Fullback discussion - I think Rafael has been one of Man United's best players this season, and he's under 25.

 

[ollieXcore]

I thought my question about being a Gooner "ruining it" would just produce a flat "yes", move on - nice to hear it produced an animated discussion!

 

[maria]

Great one, listening while driving can be dangerous when Al speaks...

 

[RockTrumpet]

I wear white boots

 

[Éperons]

I wear white boots

I do, too. These are they:

I bought them because they are HELLA SPURSY.

 

[RockTrumpet]

They're totes Spursy, Éperons

Like the rest of their defence, he's been poor

Edit: from a defensive POV. He's decent going forward.
