^ :lol

slightly as in she's giving you mixed signals and you're not sure if she's totally down with it or just waiting for it to be over.

As in staring and thinking "girl, the things I would do to you" <lip bite>.


Dark Souls: you can summon (NPC) help during that fight btw. But you need to be in human form.

The knight I saved from the cell, I presume?

His face annoys me and reminds of a shit Bond film, leave off.

I quite like QoS.

Mental that James just leaves Gemma Arterton to get killed at that party, though. She's just antagonised a super-villain, and the secret agent who, in addition to being her date, spent the pre-party evening slamming her, has gone off somewhere.

Read this article about how 'hipsters' ruined the Bowery with gentrification. 'Hipster' is the most shapeless, generic epithet to mean "people who aren't like me and think they're cool and are fucking everything up". Hipsters don't have fucking money, man. If your problem is gentrification, then blame the gentry, who are trying to buy cred by following what actual, real 'hipsters' made cool a decade or more in advance.

Every time I see a thread about 'hipsters' on Gaf I shake my head in shame and embarrassment. And that thread asking why suddenly guys are shaving the sides of their heads? 'Hitler youth haircuts' became a thing literally 8+ years ago, and Gaf just now notices.

You'll stress yourself Morsel if you allow such nonsense to pique you. Fallacies are about in droves as social media now fuels it. Never has there been such a common voice to such irritating conclusions based on irrational....

You get the point I'm sure.

I'm over it already.

That was not meant as a slight, nor to suggest you get hung over things as I do enjoy your occasional rants and anecdotes. I'm merely suggesting that it is very difficult to reason with the unreasonable.

In fact, if it weren't for the comfort of this thread I would have been banned already.

Gaf is also one of the more sensible places you can have a discussion. I shudder at the thought of some of the other places I've had the misfortune of stumbling across.

Viktor Fischer is an odd one. If his attitude is spot on I can see him doing very well in the future. Unfortunately however, the number one question hanging over his head this season is about attitude.

It'd be far too romantic for Liverpool to win the league this year. We're no small fries in the grand scheme of things, and a small club supporter would probably vomit at the idea that Liverpool are an underdog team, but it's been a long time since a team with a relatively small wage bill won the league. It'd be Dortmund-esque.

I think the 6 point gap is too much.

We really needed Spurs to beat Chelsea yesterday.

Odd puts it best, Brendan will put his faith in him if he shows good attitude and work ethic, which your link says he still has.

He's actually a good candidate for a Liverpool bid, fits our profile of young, under performing or underplayed footballers. £15m is a bit steep mind.

I think your right Walshy, we needed Chelsea to drop points yesterday or last weekend. It's a tall order for us to keep in the title race, the amount of places you can see Chelsea dropping points is decreasing fast, Arsenal please!

English papers claim Robin Van Persie is so eager to leave Manchester United for Juventus that he&#8217;ll pass up a £10m bonus.

The Dutchman had been very close to joining the Bianconeri in the summer of 2012, but opted for Old Trafford instead and by several accounts is regretting that decision.

It is possible he&#8217;ll accept a pay cut on his current £250,000 per week wages in order to help the move go through.

Kock-a-door-run over here.

Bloke on my footy team (the wrong side of his 20's) got injured playing it the other week like a fucking goober.

I messed up on the points gap, it's 7 at the moment, could potentially be 4 if we win our game in hand vs. Sunderland.

I do think we will need to win every game from here to the end of the season to stand a chance. I can't see Chelsea and City dropping too many points.

I don't think Arsenal have a chance against Chelsea. It depends if Ramsey is back and Giroud is on form.

Knock-a-door-run here too.

I feel sick today. Could have been preparing for a Sheffield Derby at this time (which also would have made me feel sick) and instead I'm recounting our inability to beat Charlton, as the Blades get ready to probably do so and have another day out at Wembley. Ugh.

Fellaini quotes:

"I enjoy playing with Michael. I know he’ll sit back if I go to the edge of the box to try to score.

"Everyone is happy today. The team played well and that is good for confidence. We have to keep going like this in the next game."

While it's no surprise to anyone who watched them yesterday, it's interesting to hear it from Fellaini's mouth in terms of his role within the team. Doesn't look like he's been brought in to be a pure DM.

Looking at his average positions/heatmaps from yesterday he was very much drifting towards the righthand side, potentially to cover Mata's defensive failings? Either way, it was a solid performance and hopefully he can start adding some goals.
