The wife and kids are away so I’m using my time wisely and productively - by watching Dundalk v Drogheda. #cmondatown

I only notice it within the same game when 60fps is an option. But if there is only 30fps I don’t see a problem.

But then I did always love playing Virtua Racing at about 18fps on the 32X.

I was already clinging on to a similar stat just for the vaguest glimmer of hope, just because the third try they conceded was earlier than the one we did.

The fourth try just allowed me to exhale, as I cling on to my conditioned need to not be the absolute worst in any random sporting scenario.

Suddenly kicking from halfway isn't so much of a challenge

Oh no no no. Don’t do that. I wouldn’t wish that upon anyone. Even one of your kind. Or a Pompey fan.

I *refuse* to accept sense infect discussion of a derby. That’s not what the internet is meant for.

Colin. Regardless of whether or not we agree, you can’t say that kind of thing out loud. Referees can’t be allowed to sit comfortably.

Scienza gets it and we love him for it, especially in a squad not known for battling. I thought the ref was inconsistent - not to anyone’s benefit - but it felt like a lottery as to which way he was going to go on seemingly straightforward decisions.

It comes down to how you define dominate. Possession, territory or chances? They threw the ball into our box a lot but there weren’t many save that had to made.

Terrible goal to concede. Should’ve seen the game out, but Leo’s goal and celebration were fantastic. We weren’t great but we were good enough to have won. #SaintsFC

It’s coming up 20 years since I completed Half Life 2 Ep 2. I now have no idea what happened - but I can remember it was a cliff hanger and am still annoyed there’s no resolution.

I’ve spent this morning morbidly watching the MTV channels close down and the final songs played were:
MTV Music - Video Killed the Radio Star (Buggles)
Club MTV - Don’t Stop the Music (Rihanna)
MTV 90s - Goodbye (Spice Girls)
MTV 80s - Together in Electric Dreams (Oakey and Moroder)

Back to the Future - What was happening in Southampton during the dates in the films? TODAY is Back to the Future Day - the very date that Marty McFly travels to the distant future of in the hit film trilogy - but what was going on in…

Although I'm at work I can see Back to the Future 3 is on TV - which reminds me of one of my favourite things I've ever written, back when I was at the Echo:

I’m watching with a mate from Cork and fully intend to exude nothing but nonchalance while screaming inside.

I've finally discovered how to bond hydrogen and oxygen in a chain: HO-HO-HO.
It's a Christmas molecule.

Under Tonda the xG must swing dramatically from first half to second.

There is no way you can guess how the thread that ends in this instant classic begins.

You’re right - but surely best to have this brutally exposed now with best part of two years to try and address rather than have results mask problems that could be exposed in more consequential circumstances.

I’m happy to take an 11 point loss to the world champions in those circumstances. Weirdest match I’ve seen in years. #iresa
