Are we still playing this game? Couple of TV shows


He Thick Of It
Mike Tyson tries his hand at politics, but spends his time being upset at the insults being volleyed at him by a sweary Peter Capaldi.


As Tim Goes By
Starring Judi Dench and Geoffrey Palmer, a mild comedy about an elderly couple who spend all day in their London apartment drinking tea, chatting, and eating the occasional custard tart.

Every few hours they are visited by the Demtel salesman, Tim Shaw, much to their annoyance, but he never stays for long anyway.

Goo Times
2014 Elimination Final at Adelaide Oval.

I'm out.
 
Yep other political parties around the world with Liberal in their name are of the leftie persuasion.

Edit: actually most are left but not all. Odd.

The Australian Liberal Party misrepresents itself in its name.

It was perhaps arguably a liberal party under the likes of Menzies, Gorton and Fraser but since then it has unquestionably been a classic tory party.
Absolutely. In writing, though, you'd still never use the word 'liberal' to describe something conservative, even in Oz. Gotta be capital L.

$15 to spend on a five that will beat the 16-17 Warriors.

I'm going:
LeBron (7), Giannis (3), Porzingis (2), Beal (2), Simmons (1)

Jae Crowder could come in for Simmons but I want playmaking at every position.
 
The Good, The Bad & The Ugl - a legal drama where the good and the bad battle over control of the UGL company.

Sorry, that was crap.

The Good, The Ba & The Ugly - A biopic on the sometimes turbulent career of Demba Ba

Talking about the NBA... I'm a Utah Jazz fan, and I'm pretty happy they have just acquired Boris Diaw from the Spurs. Supposedly a move to open up space for Gasol who is moving to San Antonio.

Jazz have added some much needed experience to their roster: George Hill, Joe Johnson and now Diaw.
 
Tree Kings -
Just after the end of the Battle of Endor, four Imperial soldiers decide to steal a cache of Emperor Palpatine's hidden gold. Led by cynical Sergeant Major Archie Gates, three of the men are rescued by rebels, but Sergeant Troy Barlow is captured and tortured by Sith intelligence. The Rebels beg for the trio to help fight against the impending arrival of the Emperor's Royal Guard. The men agree to fight in return for help rescuing Troy.
 
Weird how us and yanks define Liberal in the political sense, worlds apart. My uncle has trouble with his international friends, they be like "how do you not have marriage equality? You have a Liberal government?!"

Yeah we do, that's the problem.


There was quite a culture clash when the Yanks arrived in Woomera in the 1970s - misunderstandings over terminology such as 'rubber' and 'thongs' caused mirth, and wasn't 'Fawcett' the blonde with the big hair in Charlie's Angels? Apparently to the Yanks it's a tap.

I used to work in a store that sold everything from material, wool and cotton (fabric, yarn and thread) to blood & bone and television sets. One day an African American lady bought a TV or stereo, or something in a large box (carton) and asked me if I would take it out to her "core"? I knew what she meant, but I got a very quizzical look when I asked her if she would like it in the boot...

I saw some USAF letterhead one day and at the top above a bald eagle were the words "Sentinels of the High Frontier". Despite being a nuclear target, Woomera and indeed the whole Western world, was in safe hands.
 
A Ugs Life - Follow the harrowing tale of life as one of those hideous ugg boots that citizens of the proletariat wear. Experience the meaning of "YOLO" through jaw dropping drug fuelled orgies, endless hashtags and alcoholism from a perspective never explored before.

Does anyone give a shit about the olympics anymore? it feels like a build-up to an SANFL GF

mmmm, nup. Couldn't name an Olympian outside of Meares, except if I think really hard I could possibly remember the names of those two flogette hurdlers who keep having public spats with each other.
