Superb concern trolling. Absolutely first rate. I mean, I never try to teach my child *any* moral lessons because it would emotionally devastating if he knew that meant I thought he was a potential thief/murderer/rapist/conservative.

Scottish people are still also British people, even if some (not most, as it turns out) of them would prefer not to be.

I still can't quite get my head around what Nightengale even thinks he's saying here.

Because there's no such thing as "the gay lifestyle". There's just the "being gay".

As a rugby league fan, I can safely say that you guys do not have a monopoly on crushing brain injury.

Well, arguably the good guys are the normal fans who want to get drunk and walk to the stadium without being stabbed and then beaten up by the police. These people may not want their own team's hooligans to 'defend' them in this way, either.

Massive cliche and apologies in advance for condescension - but, really, having children changes these things. Or at least it should. If I was on my own in the car I sort of like to think I'd do something like what this couple did. With my son in the back I'd hate myself if my first thought wasn't his safety.

I don't know if you're a parent, but I cannot imagine I could have any response other than (1) is my kid ok? (2) no, really, is he ok? (3) maybe check my kid's ok again. (4) anything else.

Sorry, did I just read a comment which included "Philadelphia born and raised" which *didn't* become the Fresh Prince song? I only read it because I wanted to know when you got into one little fight.

You have to imagine Poindexter in the middle there rotated 180 degrees and with a keg underneath him.

In other words, George Orwell wasn't quite right. If you want a vision of the future, it is in fact Roger Goodell doing the ice bucket challenge - forever.

Don't know about you, but I'm really fucking pleased that where I come from people very rarely got shot dead for Being a Child Playing Guns. Because, like, I did that all the time.

Nope, that's still the market. Crazy billionaires are still demand - and you only need one. It's like saying "there is no market for insanely expensive missile defence systems" because the US government is the only buyer.

It would only be "perfectly" analogous if Jordan had been paid more by the Birmingham Barons than the Bulls. As that is not the case, I believe the phrase you are looking for is "superficially, but in fact trivially" analogous.

Yeah brother: shoot the internet. Preach it.

"A fifth former player, Chris Boyd, was originally charged with helping to cover up the crime, but was put on probation after agreeing to testify against his former teammates."

My favourite of these is when West Ham fans booed Tom Ince in the 2010s because of the acrimonious way in which his father, Paul Ince, left the club in the early 1990s. It's a game of long memories.

Ok, last one on this because it's getting to a stage of over-thinking which is frankly ludicrous.

There's a difference between "happened some time ago" and "didn't happen", though, isn't there? Hungary played in a World Cup final, and probably should have won.

I believe that in court the guy who got attacked claimed that what he sprinted down a dozen or so rows to shout at Cantona - who had just been sent of - was: "Off! Off! It's an early bath for you, Cantona!" Please note: this is not what he shouted at Cantona.
