My name isn’t actually Marvin at all

OLDE FOOTY CLIP THREAD 🧵

Filbert Street, 1976 - Lou Macari, a good bloke and ex-Celtic player puts Man United into the lead over Leicester City in this FA Cup tie. At the end you’ll notice United keeper Alex Stepney wearing a baseball hat, not uncommon on sunny days back then
I hope the Chinese people know that while I’m pretty useless and probably have the equivalent of a 5th grade Chinese education, I’m a real sweetie and would very much like to pet a panda

PRO TIP:

You can sing the phrase “Everybody’s Surfin’ - Surfin’ USA” to the melody from the theme of TV’s Hawaii 5-0 (the old one)

The Coen remake of True Grit was better than the 1969 original for exactly two key reasons, imo:

The framing was closer to the book and better incorporated its humor

The performance by the girl who played Mattie was exceptionally good and she’s the star of the film imo

My mother was chatting with a lady in her building and the lady said of RFK Jr “regardless of politics, you have to admit he’s very kind” and my mom (screaming internally) told her “kind is not a word I’d use for him” and basically had to subtly warn her to drop the topic immediately or else
The RFK number seems like a massive failure of the media to explain what RFK is doing to our public health system and how catastrophic it will be
Net favorability of how Americans view
Trump: -18
Hegseth: -15
Vance: -14
Rubio: -10
RFK Jr: -4

As someone of Catholic Irish lineage who likes reading and learned my family’s history here and back in Ireland, I have a decidedly less complimentary view of the English and Scots-Irish “heritage” of this country and it’s absolutely NOT MY heritage … most Americans are NOT English or Ulster Scot

Alternate universe Alice In Chains song about vaccinations

“Yeeeaaaaahhh here comes the booster”
One-eyed drunkard gunfighter who also promotes vaccine health … Booster Cogburn

Speaking of Peckinpah, one of my favorite Python bits - I know half these guys aged into buffoons but this was revolutionary shit putting this on tv sets in 1971; it’s almost impossible for people born post-internet to fully appreciate and it’s still wonderfully silly 55 years later

It’s kind of touching now to think that when Sam Peckinpah directed The Wild Bunch (1970), he thought that the vivid depictions of gun violence would disgust viewers into a point of moral clarity about it and was troubled when a good portion of them instead emerged eager for more

Dancing is completely different
Radically so

Gloves are mandatory in conservative settings
Instead of penises, one silly looking oversized finger on either hand.

Everyone has vulvas

You finger yourself if you want to make a baby. Nobody knows how it works but somehow you get pregnant if you do it enough.

People still look the same otherwise

Everybody produces breast milk

In that dumb song “Shooting Star” (Bad Company) Paul Rodgers says “now he’s in a rock n roll outfit” which is a hilarious word to describe a band… Outfit. Like the mob. Peter Cetera, of the Chicago outfit. George Thorogood of the Delaware outfit.

Ridiculous

Seeing that clip of the school kid punching the chud, I’m reminded of one of many peculiar diatribes in the Bill James Historical BB Abstract where he relates an anecdote about Early Wynn telling a Black player “I don’t drink with N—“ and getting punched and James asserts the puncher was worse
