Lemonade

Who would you cite as your favourite ever band from right here in The Granite City? There's been some beauties over the years. Psycho-A-Go-Go, My Decaying Leg, Edgar Prais, Black Atom, Gloria Flaw, Stacatto Set, The Rocketeers, Karloff, Hot Mangu, 7 Stone Under, Deadloss Muthafucking Superstar..... But who's your favourite?

Which part of it is bizarre?

Escape To Victory as well, fuck they were excellent.

Point of Origin, I wasn't keen on them when they were skate punk but once they found their niche they were absolutely excellent. Really catchy songs, gorgeous harmonies, smart lyrics. Bob Knight is a bit of a Marmite character but there aren't many better songwriters in Aberdeen. Radio Song is still an absolute beaut.

YouTube - Pork and Beans I wasn't sure about the new tune to begin with but it's starting to really grow on me. I'm stupidly, giddily excited about the Red Album. Criminally underrated band Weezer, I absolutely fucking love them. I absolutely have to go and see them if they hit British shores this summer.

I have a pair of camo shorts which I love and I've never been in a metal band. Camo shorts are for everybody man.

Gardai rush to scene after suspicious 'ball bearing device' found on Luas tracks - turns out it was a sex toy "When the device was examined under torch light it was determined that it was in fact a Rampant Rabbit dildo."

A combination of mob mentality and online anonymity, plus the fact that most Rangers fans are pricks to begin with. It's mental how much they just close ranks whenever anyone dares call out their fans on their shitty behaviour. Hiding behind nonsense like this "Anti Rangers agenda" that everyone who blames them for anything immediately gets accused of having (including Dave). It doesn't even occur to them that's its possible that one small group of their fans might just have been acting like drunk dickheads that one day. Just "nope, didn't happen". They really are the worst fans in existence.

Spotted - Chris Officer going into the Co-op on Holburn Street at about 9.45 this morning.

I couldn't get in to Better Call Saul at all. I got about halfway through series 2 and lost patience waiting for something to happen. It was very slow I thought.

The abuse poor Dave is getting on his twitter over it is pretty disgusting tbh.

The OP really lit the fuse then just fucking vanished into thin air didn't he/she.

Glad to hear you're doing well

It's your responsibility to check this. I'm not looking up 300 people on Wikipedia. -Date of birth and date of death must be verifiable. -Named individuals, not just "Pope Wotsisface" or "the oldest person in the world". All times and dates will relate to local time at place of death Teams to be submitted to me via PM on here, or you can email or Facebook message me if you so desire. CLOSING DATE - JANUARY 21ST.

Ha ha 70s sitcom actor Peter Blake died last month. I'm presuming that's not who you meant?

Wrestlers and Barry Chuckle. This has not been a classic Deadpool year. But we go on, and we have a new leader! ----- LEON "VADER" WHITE HAS DIED. Age 63 - 8 points With a Unique pick, plus Joker Bonus for Flights, that's 22 points! ----- MATT CAPOTELLI HAS DIED. Age 38 - 10 points With a Unique pick for Bigsby that's 13 points. ----- JOE JACKSON HAS DIED. Age 89 - 6 points With a Unique pick for Flights that's 9 points. ----- PETER BLAKE HAS DIED. Age 69 - 8 points With a Unique Pick bonus for @James Broonbreed that's 11 points. (I can't find a cause of death for this guy, if it turns out to be Unnatural Bonuses I'll go back and amend points). ----- New Leaderboard

This reminds me, I also had questions. Why did you have to get a circumcision at 11? Why did you "have" to have a wank?

Joe Lewis. England's Number 1. It was a very even match I thought. We couldn't really break through but we had plenty chances and had them on the back foot a few times. If Shinnie's long ranger had gone in to make it 2-1 I don't think they would have got back into it.

Just when I thought nobody could top "Ruptured urethra" along came this.

Worst I've ever done was catch it in my zip. That was bad enough. Jimmy Lucifer famously ruptured a testicle while on stage with Deadloss Superstar, and I believe the band Bloodnut took their name from his injury.

"Ruptured Urethra" is going to haunt me.

I'm nae allowed to take photos in my office and I could get fired for it but here's one of my last job in Aberdeen from 7 years ago.

I'd like a Facebook-esque laugh face reaction for this. Seriously though that sounds truly terrible. All these stories are putting mine to shame. Shut up hamstring massage is painful alright?

That sounds fucking awful.
