    I think I will stick to the Germanics. I imagine Afrikaans and then Dutch would be quite similar, but I have noticed that Norwegian has nearly the exact same composition as English and very similar root words.
  6. I think it was a free. That is why he had such a huge payrise

    So far I know the most French but that is mostly due to exposure, it is a very prevalent language. I can’t get a hold of Spanish even though I do know a large vocab due to having Mexican friends. I think it is because the Australian English language and accent is non-rhotic so I have a lot of trouble with the letter R. For instance ‘car’ becomes ‘kaaa’ not ‘kar’. There was this one time working as a barista, I said this name ‘Kaa lowse’ and the guy looking at me confused and then realised I had an accent that is why I said ‘Carlos’ weird

    Fucking around with language apps for shits and giggs and I have to say that Norwegian is fuck easy compared to any other language I have looked at(it is still hard). I can’t wrap my head around Spanish, not matter how hard I try because the I mix it up with the little French and Italian I know and I can’t get me noggin around the coniugation.

    You probably saw this but I hadn't till today @Viva la FCB
  11. I meant for a transfer cost if it weren't a free move. I just ballparked him around the 50mill mark because that seems to be the going rate these days. Probably more given he is an international for Germany and plays for a rich winning team.
  12. You also didn't state the cost. Would I have been wrong in assuming he would cost around that much money?
  13. The rules only apply to clubs that aren't in the Champions League.
  14. Jesus Christ mate, you just posted them, Sule and Kounde, surely that would end up around 100mill. Are you alright?
  15. Why keep Christensen and Azpilicueta when 100,000,000 can be spent?
  16. There is a 40’ difference between where I am and my hometown. so cold
  17. Breaker Morant 9/10 A bunch of Aussie soldier commit a war crime in South Africa and are court-marshalled by the British military in a stunning display of lack of self-awareness and hypocrisy of war (nobles and politicians declare a war on a nation and then punish soldiers for carrying out their atrocities for them). Nowadays they are given medals and their defence is paid by multi-million dollar corporations. Instead of taking responsibility as the aggressor Britain simply pushes the blame onto a few low-ranking officers as a political move to suggest the end of the conflict. Intriguing film, because they are never portrayed as innocent but they are portrayed as doing no less than everyone else during the conflict and are subsequently the few that are punished. Due process and a fair trial are undermined as the court never intended on pardoning them, having already decided their fate before the trial begins. Ultimately showing no more mercy and honesty than the war criminals they punish, making the whole charade an exercise in hypocrisy. Really resulting in the question, ‘what is a war crime?’ an arbitrary exercise in morality post the fact. Six dead POWs is an offence tried and punished but two nukes on civilians isn’t. Bizarre justice. Also this all happened once upona time Fantaric film
  18. 1917 -9/10 I’m a sucker for war movies and I cry like your mum watching a romcom, and I’m not joking, war movies extract tears from me like Saudis extract oil from the earth. Only a couple of things I disliked, some of the coincidences during the farm scene were a bit much, the trenches seemingly being separated in a strange way, (the German trench is in between two British trenches?) And lastly more of a historical nitpick, the British army kept ethnics in seperate battalions at the time, so except under extreme circumstances there wouldn’t be token Sikhs and Blacks out and about, though I guess it is implied one of the groups is ragtag because each character had a different accent. It has no effect on the quality if the film unless you are racist or a history freak haha
  19. @Toinhogot the twins a forklift cert yet?
  20. Five Australian journalists were murdered in 1975 by the Indonesian government (they really like executing Australians) and Roger West went to uncover the truth behind this massacre and was executed himself. David McBride did the exact same thing as Julian Assange, except he blew the whistle on Australian war crimes in Afghanistan, and the government and opposition offers none of the same ‘support’ (as if) they give to Assange and are trying to bleed McBride to death with a thousand short knifes. Whistle blowers are heroes more often than not, the balls it takes is astounding. It is like Australia couldn’t bear that the USA is trying to bury Assange and felt it had to do it one of their citizens. But conversely to McBride, Ben Roberts-Smith a war criminal is a ‘good boy and a patriot’ that gets his legal battle paid by Channel 7. Sorry I went into the deep end of the pool

    @Viva la FCB after the entire Blackhawks ordeal, it has come to light the USA hockey covered up a sexual assault case concerning a 17 year old Reid Boucher attacking a 12 year old girl at a billet house. Plea deal and no criminal record. Disgusting.
  22. There are journalists that are in jail right now for reporting war crimes and governmental corruption. 'He kick ball good' is also nice coverage I guess.
  23. Vanilla Sky - Yes, I would also have made a movie just to make out with circa 2000 Penelope Cruz, Tom Cruise is the thinking man's man. It's an interesting film, I hear the original Spanish language is better. I know what you did last summer - I wasn't expecting to like this movie but I did. A fun slasher flick in the vein of Scream, might be even better than Scream in some ways. A fun watch.
