Tell me when it’s Brexit :wink:

Is that a real ale?

Absolutely nothing wrong with it - it’s eminently quaffable. Just in most pubs you wouldn’t jump for joy if it were the only flavourful keg beer available - but I did in this one.

I went through a phase of eating too much avocado and now it makes me feel a bit sick.

Creme eggs. Had a one+ a day habit for a while.

They’re still fine, obviously, but not that fussed.

Chocolate nesquik

People moaning about hangovers need to realise that they go away again once you become a proper alcoholic.

Serious answer: fags. Other serious answer: “Modern Family”. Watched it a lot for a bit and really enjoyed it, now never ever watch it at all, even though Tivo still keeps recording it.

Trying to get through Modern Family, I really liked it for the first few seasons but there is Just Too Much of it

Right? And it’s still ‘good’ despite it so fair play to them for that but it’s just so overwhelming. If they made less episodes it would be better quality as well I think.

I was drinking Crusha like it was squash for a brief period. The thought of it makes me feel slightly ill now.

I think it’s a problem with US TV in general, when they get something that sticks they squeeze every last drop out of it

Yeah it’s the two extremes here and there. Here they leave us wanting more but sometimes 2-3 seasons of 10 episodes feels so unsatisfactory, be there as soon as there is a hint of popularity they commission like 10 seasons with 15-24 episodes a season. Madness.

Yep, made a ‘classic’ pint of chocolate nesquik as I used to circa 2001 the other day and felt horrid after drinking only half of it.

Sisters of Mercy.

Overdid worcester sauce crisps when I was about 13 and had to take a couple of years out but I’ve been back in the saddle for a while now.

Gigs

Oh God, yeah. And Zoopla.

For me…

  • Trying everywhere on those ‘best burger ever!’ lists
  • Buying trainers
  • Gigs. I think if you go to too many you actually realise they can be crap a lot of the time

I think the aim for US comedies is to hit 100 episodes. Once that’s achieved the show can enter syndication (endless repeats with so many episodes in a cycle that nobody really notices), at which point it becomes a cash cow regardless of quality or popularity.

Obvious, I know, but
