  1. I just can't get past the Solution In Search Of A Problem definition. It's perfect. I don't suppose I'll ever be able to see this as just a way to monetize absolutely fucking anything, even things that don't exist, and if folk are cool with that and want to spunk money away on literally absolutely nothing then fair enough one day people will realise that it's literally absolutely nothing and some folk will be holding the bag I might try to convince somebody that I'm in a position to sell the rights to the number 10, see if I can get somebody to buy it. Or the colour puce, maybe.
  2. In fact, fuck it. It's just a woman repeating the points that some dude in a sweater is making, but the dude appears to be dead wrong and it's not clear why he should be considered an authority on the apparent equivalence of actual art and monkey JPGs I'm not trying be toxic like, but just because somebody says it's the same as paying big money for unique artwork don't make it so
  3. 'the actual drawing on the wall is not the artwork, the artwork is the certificate. Without the certificate the artwork has no value' I mean, this is just demonstrably not the case and the whole video seems predicated on the idea that because actual art can be really expensive, it's cool for NFTs to be as well I'm only halfway but I'm losing hope here
  4. The video loses sceptical viewers at the very outset by saying that we need to understand why we value art so highly to understand this subject. It's not true - art is valued because it's aesthetically appealing, and one of a kind, and you don't need to watch the rest of the video to have already established that NFTs are neither of the above. I'll watch it but the very first point it makes appears to be tangentially related at very best
  5. I cannot fucking wait for next season like

    This is very close to bang on, I reckon. The only bit I'd question is the made up mags laughing at them who are, in my experience, very real. They're just not at Wembley
  7. that's what we said man, that's what we said "Europa League is still ok" is a slippery slope
  8. Christ This is sort of thing that happens to us (or used to) I'm so pleased they're fucking shit now
  9. I still reckon Everton will go, like
  10. My mate is very involved in running Alnwick Town, he was telling me about this last week but I expected a couple of hundred behind each goal. Looks like it was bloody brilliant
  11. It's a positive that I'm disappointed tbh

    I'll wait to see what Grumpy says like
  14. Yeah, that Athletic piece is brilliant
  15. But our absolute cock end, at least. Remember having exactly that conversation with somebody in the Gallowgate c.2003
  16. It's really just absolutely fucking great seeing everybody engaged and interested again. It's been a long time and it's really all down to this lad and his staff. Fully accept that the small matter of the takeover is what made it possible of course, but from a football perspective, which is presumably what everybody on here feeds on, it's really all Eddie
