just to clarify, I said I found teh premiership dull, not football. However, I agree with Kyle. The slow play, the complaining/diving players are as dull as any scrum reset.

If you love her, don't encourage it!
She can do what she likes, and really i'd be hard pressed to stop her dancing.
couldn't walk in them, but dammit, I was sexy when I wore them. Yeah, right.
You know what, you would've been. They* did a study a few years ago and found that men prefer the shape of women's legs when they are wearing high heels (the test subjects couldn't see the feet just the legs).
*The same "they" who do all those kinds of studies.
I'v got a tattoo on the the sole of one foot. getting it on there didn't feel to good, so I'm not doing it again.
Yee-ouch!!!
I've tried fire walking. Anyone else done that?
We were supposed to at the end of our physics course at uni, but we weren't allowed to because it was deemed "unsafe"

And that takes us to four! Four glorious PA writers* with tattoos. That I know of...
You counting me? If so, who's the fourth?
By the way collarbones and the elbow (outside and inside) super-frickin-painful! But my tattooist reliably says feet are the most painful (oh and she's a she).
But speaking of pain and shoes my partner went out one night in her new high heels. She danced and danced and came home with shoes full of blood and crushed nerves. And she would totally do it again.
By the way she did a post about how high your heels should be based on your height

I just don't get the need for mountains of shoes...you can only wear one pair at a time!
How many pairs of pants do you own? :)
Now Hadyn, that can't be true
My owning heaps of shoes or me not wanting to do things if barefoot?
It's totally true. I can't even vacuum the house unless I put on shoes first. :)

Best comment on that page:
Naked surf fishing! I can't wait to get my tackle out....

I counted once, and I have over fifty pairs of shoes. Do I get pelted with old jandals for even venturing into this thread?
I have a vast array of sneakers at home and I love shoes. For some reason if I'm barefoot I can't get anything done. I'll just lie about on the couch.
Perhaps it's my Tauranga/Mount Maunganui upbringing too: if you're barefoot, relax.

With John Banks if I recall, quite the scandal.

Word. What's with that... faux-bra-esque but slightly too high man-boob-framing graphic on the shirt?
It's Canterbury's Wallabra (tm) in action again.
Richard Irvine has a great breakdown of the new unis

Rugby has become one of the most mind-numbingly boring ways to pass 80 minutes
And a football match is (at least) 10mins longer
(a game watched by literally billions more people than rugby)
You're dead on there, the stats are impressive.
The 2006 FIFA World Cup Germany had a total cumulative television audience of 26.29 billion (24.2 billion in-home and 2.1 billion out-of-home viewers). This is on a par with the 1998 event, which like 2006 was also staged in Europe, but a little below the 26.4 billion in-home viewers noted for the 2002 FIFA World Cup in Korea and Japan. Unsurprisingly, the most-watched match was the final Italy v France with a global cumulative audience of 715.1 million viewers.
The Rugby World Cup final only got 15.8million viewers and a cumulative total of 4 billion.
But fair enough, that's the Football World Cup. I really enjoy that. I just don't like the club level football (like the Premiership). I can't see how the two codes are so different. The diving, complaining to the ref, crap you get in football is just as annoying as any number of collapsed scrums.
Each to their own Hadyn...I'd have to say you don't know what the fuck you're on about
Nice. I think you should wait for cricket season, then you can get really angry at me

If I may Paul, LOL!
Unlike other sports where jerseys are made out of nylon or mesh, Rugby jerseys are like thick sweatshirts with collars! In fact there is no other jersey on earth that can move so seamlessly from the playing field to the farmers market
It's nice to know other whities like it too. Though the demise of the rugby jersey (as an actual jersey) is a pity.
I love this comment by the way (on Stuff White People Like):
This is the stupidest website I’ve ever seen. It’s not funny… It’s just dumb.
Come to Detroit for your book signing. I want to fight you.
