Highland Capital Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 1 hour ago, ICTChris said: I watched that Hotel Cecil thing that was mentioned on here a few weeeks ago. Some of those web sleuths are complete arseholes. One of them got his mate to go to the grave and film himself touching the headstone, what an utter danger. I watched that the other week and the first two episodes were quite good but then I quickly got irritated by it. One guy disputed that she'd gotten in the tank voluntarily saying words to the effect of getting into the tank at gun point wouldn't be voluntary. No-one was suggesting that ever happened - it was a scenario he'd completely invented with no evidence. Also a whole load of stuff about coincidences like some Korean film which really had nothing to do with it other than a similar storyline. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine is that there are too many dogs. Was out playing football and in the hour we were there we saw no fewer than 35 dogs. Some people have multiple dogs. You can see the environmental impact with bits of chewed tennis balls littering the pitches. I love a dog, but there are,quite frankly, too many. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 I tried Haagen-Dazs ice-cream when it first got popular here back in the Nineties and thought it was rank. Everyone seemed to think it was the tits at the time. Has it improved since? Do people still buy it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Humans cause a little more environmental damage than dogs. Too many humans, not enough dogs imo. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's alright but is it worth the jump in price from other brands? Nope. However, I'm a huge fan of Ben and Jerry's Ice creams. Cookie Dough is quality. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not very in-keeping with the thread, though, so I'll posit that their Cookie Dough tastes like hate and suffering. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA Baracus Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 Ben and Jerry's is pish. Hate all the extra nonsense they chuck in to it. Just give me nice ice cream. Strawberry Cheesecake preferably. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiegoDiego Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 Keeping a medium sized dog causes anal CO2 emissions analogous to driving about in a 4x4.FTFY, but there are a fair few more variables to the equation than that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much farting do cats do? Are they the equivalent of a Fiat 500?

It's not the dog and cat farts so much as all the cow and sheep farts in their food. You reminded me of this now: What's invisible and smells of carrots?

But does it chuck all its litter in the sea? Or does it bury all its rubbish in landfill? They don't take planes that much either to go on holiday. And how much CO2 does an individual cow produce for us lot to eat? Dogs are fine. Humans can get in the bin. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That entire documentary was a total waste of time and the worst thing I’ve ever seen on Netflix. I’m not entirely sure the people releasing it had a clue what they were doing, surely the reveal that the water tank was in fact discovered as open should have meant the entire documentary shouldn’t have been made in the first place? There was no mystery whatsoever just a total freak show of online detectives that no one with any sense could ever take seriously. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were parts that were interesting - the stuff about the history of the hotel and the older guy talking about life on Skid Row for example. The more it went on though it just became infuriating. There was a moment where one of these online sleuths said that he didn't agree with the coroner...which was based on absolutely nothing. It was a good example of people who've decided what kind of ending they want in advance and then making the evidence fit that ending. Also, that weird guy who described the girl as being like his sister and getting someone to visit the grave needs sectioned. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe some of it was okay but it could have all fit into a one hour episode on a series specifically dedicated to online sleuth weirdos from America. There are lots of people like that from U.K. on twitter who spend their every waking moment discussing the Madeleine McCann case but the Americans seems to he so much weirder with it all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a poster on here who had hundreds of posts almost solely in the Madeleine McCann thread. They also only seem to reappear on this site when the story is back in the news. Being interested in it as a news story is understandable but there seems to be people who've become absolutely obsessed with it. Again almost all of them are those who've already decided what the outcome they want is and then make all the evidence fit that outcome.

Shandon Par Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 The Ramirez/Night Stalker doc on Netflix is a decent social history doc on LA. The murdery stuff is almost incidental to all the great hair, music and mad clothes. More of a recommendation that an unpopular opinion, sorry. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
