Loved the quirkiness of Raising Arizona and the suspense of Millers Crossing and the humour of Lebowski...but no, it actually isn't the greatest film ever made is it. 

Er yes. That's why I said it was.

And for every Lebowski there are multiple "Fargos"

 

The Noel and Liam of celluloid. 

Fargo is brilliant too you human paraquat.

How many times have I sat down to read the football reports in the sports section of the paper to see an amazing headline that immediately draws my interest only to find out a few lines in its bloody women’s football !!!!    Bloody ridiculous !  

 

They should keep the reports TOTALLY separate ...  they should have a separate pull out and offer it to you at the newsagents in a similar way to the supermarket check out when they ask you if you want a plastic bag for an extra 5p ..   

 

And for those that want a greener planet ..   not even print it at all and save a few trees ...   :thumbup:

When a person is being "brutally honest" 99% of the time they're not actually thinking of the welfare of the person that they're speaking to and they shouldn't pretend that they do, instead they're thinking that the person involved is a waste of their time and addressing things in this way will cause the person to never come to them about any problems again and so their own lives are made easier. Pure self-gratification.

 

Tough love doesn't make people listen any more than any other kind of honesty, and it's no more effective either.

It works like a charm every time!

Depends on your definition of 'very good' in terms of a 17 million pound centre half. I love that he plays for us, but I agree that he's slightly overrated. 

One of the few players I’ve seen at Leicester that is rated higher by the general footballing community, than he is here. 

His England performances suggest he is far better in a back 3 than a 2 though.

Just because your daddy owned a piece of land that a mine sits on doesnt mean that you should have a billion pounds in the bank

Of course not! I will give some to my brothers.

 

 

But seriously, if there is a mine under the land that I, not WE, but I own, and it was worth 2 billions and 1 penny, I want the full 2 billion AND that 1 little, tiny, small amount that people call a "penny". (I know there are taxes, labour fees and all, but that's besides the point)

 

I will do what I want with said (hypothetical) money. I can choose to buy a yacht or give as charity.

 

Your fantasies about how could a socialist economy be great are just that, a fantasy. Neither capitalism or socialism are the perfect system because there is no such thing as " perfect economical system".
