It’s widely used in Fife and possibly north of that. Don’t think it’s common in Glasgow or Edinburgh though.
It gives us the saying, “It’s a braw, bricht, moonlicht, nicht” :-)
EDIT: Apparently it’s from the French, brave, but the Swedish similarity is noted too :-)
Re Skitbra, does that mean that “bra” is “good”?
I ask because in parts of Scotland there’s the word “braw”, which has the same meaning. Wonder if there’s a connection there.
Extremely jealous - I’d love a pair of 1210s!
Exactly - I’m all for subverting expectations, but not to the extent that what you’ve made barely coheres to that which came before.
I like Rian Johnson films in general, Brick is a favourite of mine and Knifes Out is great, and so on. But this was just… horrible…
Nah, just the movies, going back to when I was about 6 or 7 years old. Love the OT, hate the prequels, loved TFA and RoS, hated TLJ, really enjoyed Rogue One and haven’t seen Solo or any of the Disney TV series. Never had any interest in the books or animations.
Only non movie media (not including some little action figure toys, long since lost, and a few video games) was this The Story of Star Wars vinyl record, which is basically just the audio from Ep IV with narrator filling in the gaps! 😁
Last Jedi shit the bed and painted them into a corner,
Definitely agree with that. There was so much course correction needed after that mess.
I enjoyed RoS a lot though - for me it did everything a Star Wars movie needed to do, great visuals, exciting battles, good and evil, ordinary people coming together to fight a fascist enemy.
Ok, lots of it was very silly plotwise, but just as an experience I was left feeling pumped up, whereas TLJ left me feeling like I was done with Star Wars, it was just so awkward.
I wasn’t a fan of the middle one tbh, but the other two, definitely 😁
Rise of Skywalker. I loved it :-)
EDIT - I should say, I didn’t properly read the thread title, and I wouldn’t put RoS in my “top list”. I just gave it as an example of a movie that’s generally disliked but that I enjoyed.
I like the movie where the person go into the computer
Have I got an MST3K for you then… Overdrawn at the Memory Bank
I love BR2049. In fact I think I liked it more than the original, and that’s saying something.
Yep. I mean a few years of going deep in the playoffs probably takes its toll, but still, it was ridiculous.
What really got me this year though was what seemed like an unbelievable amount of errors and stupid (and costly) penalties. I’ve not looked at the numbers to see if this is more than just my impression, but I feel like they shot themselves in the foot so many times, much more than the average.
Fingers crossed for a rested and healed team, and a good draft!
Nope. Been a thoroughly dispiriting season for the Niners, and I have absolutely no wish to watch the Chiefs win yet again.
And that was before Trump, the End Racism thing and so on.
I recently chatted with someone at a party who said “no, all American beers are bad” including microbrewery beers.
That person has not tried “all” American beers. So their view can be safely disregarded IMO.
Magnet.
