But your flag decal won't get you
Into Heaven any more.
They're already overcrowded
From your dirty little war.
Now Jesus don't like killin'
No matter what the reason's for,
And your flag decal won't get you
Into Heaven any more.

If you can have Dragonite dancing to Enya, then you should be able to have Farfetch’d smacking his leek to Bowie’s hand-to-the-ground mime in Fashion.

Chanced upon this thread of people shaming their dramatic pets. Much amusement, more so due to the fact that so many people mistook the bun in the OP for a cat. Full disclosure…I thought it was a guinea pig…

Backs up my long held disdain for calling Liverpool and Manchester β€œthe North”. They are barely even the midlands…

As a Dundee United fan, I had just assumed that Mark Birighitti was back playing televised matches.

Whoever is designing Bowie’s album covers seems to be running out of ideas.

The Broomway is pretty notorious already. The photos in the reply show just how dumb this was.

Aberdeen finally sees sunshine for first time since 21 January The last reported sunshine had been on 21 January - the longest sunless period since records began in 1957.

People think I make it up about the weather in Aberdeen. Perpetual cloud cover and granite buildings. You’re never sure where the ground stops and the sky starts: permaglaucoma. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

We are, indeed, a multi-university. Teaching in the multiverse. And as the climax to Thor: The Dark World was filmed where that photo in the link below is from, I am MCU canon.

But we all know that the true β€œpost a banner that is not in English” is Adriano Celentano, if not for the choreography as much as the song.

Fluid beef? β€œCow pools” was right there, although admittedly that would imply a certain lack of sophistication.
