  • Speaker: Knuckleball,

    The actual quote was "the ball picks up speed as it hits the air" and it was at the half, not full time</pedant>

    You left an 'n' out of pendant :)

  • Speaker: KICK IT! End of Act One,

    Yes, I think my colleague Mr Green might have some feelings on this matter.

    Ha!

  • Speaker: KICK IT! End of Act One,

    Does anyone else think the South African goalkeeper was a little hard done by? Yellow card, sure, penalty OK, but a red AND a penalty, for that? Really?

    The build-up for the URU-SAF game showed a highlight reel of Suarez. All of the footage showed him falling over and the faintest of touches and none of him scoring goals. So I wasn't shocked when I noticed that falling over seemed to be all that he did.

    Needless to say that when I saw his tumble upon contact with the goalie (in super slow motion and high definition) a stream of incredibly filthy and mostly four-letter words (it was hard to tell because they were strung together) flew from my mouth towards the television.

    Suarez, in my mind, embodies everything I hate about football. Diving, self-important arseholes and playing to screw over the other team.

  • Southerly: Bob's Top Five,

    Imma let you finish Bob, but Beyonce has the greatest video of ALL TIME!

    Is the donkey really a unicorn? I've watched it a few times and keep seeing the unicorn.

    I'm glad he likes OK Go! If any band deserves our admiration in their music video making, it's them.

  • Speaker: KICK IT! We won 1-1!,

    It'll be all about licenses and how much game footage they are allowed to show. Of the 64 games, only 11 are live and free to air.

  • Up Front: Can't We All Just Fucking Get Along?,

    I'm honestly not trying to wind you up, Craig, but I don't quite get the offence here. It's six years since an episode of The Simpsons had Marge describe SATC as"the show about four women acting like gay guys."

    At the risk of inflammation: like it or not, most jokes are about stereotypes, in order to confirm the punchline or to offer the counter as a surprise. But you all know this, simply because PAS ends up having this discussion many times a year.

    So let's rewrite the joke: SATC (an acronym with wonderful onomatopoeia for such a show) is a show about four women who act like...?

    Remember, no stereotypes allowed and it has to be at least Simpsons-level funny.

  • Field Theory: Settle a bet,

    is that really within ten years? Wow. "I don't don't want Fop! I'm a Dapper Dan man!"

  • Speaker: KICK IT! Vuvuzelas and Jambulanis,

    Really? Can you get to the rest of Miracle Pictures?

    Nope. The whole thing must just be rampant with pornography. Is it one of the "casting couch" places :)

    ...or be seen as a humourless penis-hater

    Yeah you're probably gonna need a sense of humour if you like penises. They're crazy.

  • Speaker: KICK IT! We won 1-1!,

    I'm picking Germany. We can nail England on penalties. Germany will be a tall order, but anything can happen on the day...

    Oh god, we're writing All Whites fan fic. No one tell Emma!
