It's got Monica Bellucci in it. The rest is in the title. Clive Owens and Paul Giamatti are also in there if Monica isn't convincing enough.

Anime and Manga - It's time for you to finish what you've started and watch JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders
Yeah, it's soooo bad at times, but then Dark Schneider casts "Ozzy Iommi Geezer" or something and I can't stop chuckling 😂

Watching "Bastard!!", and I can't decide if I hate it or dislike it, but the references are great fun 😂

What You've Done Today - Keep Dreaming...
You are generally right, I was just venting a little there, that kid kind of likes me because I also have long hair. He's still scared ****less of me when I speak though, but atleast he doesn't cry anymore 😅 His little sister is a bit more brave though, she hugged me the last time she met me, much to the astonishment of her parents and me. We've got a 20 year old program at work to track, assign and register arrivals/departures that is only able to run through Internet Explorer. This week has been fun and not at all chaotic for traffic managers. They developed a "cloud based variant" that barely works so they had to type everything up in emails and send to the central office and have them deal with it instead.

@ShadySands Congratulations! Me and my friends spoke about this the last time we were in the sauna, one of them works as a preschool teacher and the other has kids, and has just enrolled his oldest in one. His oldest kid is very feminine, long hair, he loves his dresses and dolls. There hadn't been a single issue at the preschool until one of the parents flipped their **** as they found out a boy was looking so much like one of the girls, and at that moment they started tormenting him. Once an adult said it was wrong. Things calmed down though after the parent was given the threat of having to take their kid to another place, and was given a little speech to memorize and say infront of the kids.

We've got a storm warning here, I was real sneaky though, one of the trucks 'sploded a gasket at work so it'll be out of commission 'til monday so I took half of today and tomorrow off 😏- Music: Sharing and Listening - The music is not in the notes, but in the silence between
I miss the Tarja era aswell, her style really stood out, and she was good at it. Shes also my favourite because she is one of the reasons that I listen to metal, I doubt I'd have liked it if I hadn't heard Nightwish in the beginning. I really like the music they've done with Floor aswell, her blend of singing styles is really great to my ears. I doubt you'd get much disagreement with them treating their singers badly, but mein got im himmel, Anette over Floor? That's worse than ketchup on pancakes 😄 Atleast the drama around Tarja leaving did give us "The Poet and the Pendulum", which is a great piece.- Random/Interesting/Weird

Images look pretty close to some of the pizza we can get here, it looks good 🤤 Well, there probably wasn't pork in the beginning, but things evolve. You don't see many of our muslim immigrants eating kebab pizza for that reason.- Food Thread - Obsidian Gormand's Edition
Not my favourite, but don't dis' it 'til you try it I used to chow down pineapple+banana pizza all the time, but without curry- Food Thread - Obsidian Gormand's Edition
Only if you're muslim, and considering the price of pork compared to other meats here the explanation is an easy one. I've yet to see a pizzeria that doesn't offer atleast one with bacon. Cool, found this article as one of the sources on wikipedia; https://www.sonomamag.com/swedish-pizza-is-bananas-now-you-can-try-it-in-petaluma/ Someone that's trying to convert Californians to Swedish pizza 😄- Music: Sharing and Listening - The music is not in the notes, but in the silence between
Haha, yeah, I remember checking it out when I heard he was to replace Jukka Nevalainen in Nightwish and thinking "man, he's going to be bored" seeing some of his stuff from Wintersun and Rotten Sound 😂- Food Thread - Obsidian Gormand's Edition
They're pretty dope, usually the kebab is pork, but I prefer beef if it's available.- Food Thread - Obsidian Gormand's Edition
Good point, it was supposed to be about the crepes actually. But it's funny either way 😄 In truth though I used a sweet chili sauce for the crepes since I used heavily spiced minced meat as filling, the pizzas were kebab-pizza and as such "kebab sauce", spicy variant, was used - as is tradition. 😄- Music: Sharing and Listening - The music is not in the notes, but in the silence between

Celebrated with crepes after eating pizza all week. ... Was delicious with some ketchup 😛- What You've Done Today - Keep Dreaming...
Same here, afterall it's the contact point with the road, the cheapest way to avoid expensive repairs or a new vehicle is to have the best tyres you can get. I had to order my summer tyres when I bought them, because noone had the same demands as me when I wanted new tyres, everyone here seems to just buy the cheapest and most comfortable they can get and rely on driving aids more than anything else.- What You've Done Today - Keep Dreaming...
I watched it, I put all my weight on handling on ice since I live on the countryside. We don't have winter maintenance on the road here since it's off the beaten path, one of the neighbours (When the ****wit gets off his fat arse) is supposed to plow the road when we have snowfall, that's it, so we get alot of compacted snow that turns to ice. And I don't have any electronic aids in my car, so if I can get decent grip on snow I'll be fine, but having as much grip as possible on the ice is a must for me or I'll just spin the rear wheels, and then you slowly but surely glide the rear end into the ditch, again 😄 I also buy Nokian tyres because, well, they're Finnish. I'd rather my money go there than overseas. If there was a Swedish tyre maker I'd probably weigh towards those.- What You've Done Today - Keep Dreaming...
Unfortunately, yes. Well, if the temperature allows it. Oh, and if they "saw it coming" -.- Edit; I say unfortunately, because I don't like handing in my car to pay for repairing rust, and recently they changed the salt compound to something that absolutely frigging destroys brakepads. I've had to change pads every year the last couple of years because they've smelted, and it's not from overuse since I'm very adept at planning my driving and engine braking to minimize using them. Because I'm fun like that. 😅- What You've Done Today - Keep Dreaming...
I typically use studded winter tyres, but I discarded the old set because they were worn out and needed replacing, but then I got put on sick leave and the money one gets from being on sick leave is pretty terrible, and it doesn't help that my workplace ****ed up something/has a ****ed up system, so because I had to wait for a few days to meet the doctor my workplace started paying out my normal salary without me ending my sickleave or being, you know, at work, ended up in me owing my employer ~1000$... So I had to mount the old friction(less) winter tyres. Aaaanyway, I only buy Nokian studded tyres, they know their stuff. They absolutely suck at the most common winter road type here though, bare ground, but more than make up for it when one hits the black ice. - What You've Done Today - Keep Dreaming...
