This line, “I'm dangling from the hip of the bloody Ghost of Sparta” and “From what I heard, the pantheon had it coming” made me laugh so hard.
Mimir's lines are absolute gold and the voice actor nailed his job.
My little brother is telling me this, but I don't really have much reason to believe him. I gave him my 360 about 6 months ago, and never heard about such things then, and I'm pretty skeptical now. I'm pretty security-conscious, though, so I want to at least get in the know. Can you guys give me the word?
I'm probably going to be a negative Nancy but I've wanted to do a thread line this for a few weeks now because recently the rumours and such we've been getting from the reliable "fellowship of fans" has really been from a Tolkien lore perspective both baffling and almost downright laughable (btw the work fellowship of fans does is amazing. Hes very underrated), the fact we have rumours of wizards appearing in middle earth via a meteor or one of galadriels brother as a twisted evil elf father figure to orcs is just beyond concerning it's actually laughable.
Of course this isn't to say this will all come to pass because a lot of these rumours might actually just be utter bollocks in fact recently I kinda hope a lot of these rumours fof has uncovered do turn out to be just rumour because I'll have a particularly hard time enjoying this series even more so than the awful hobbit films.
Does anyone else think we re going to witness a butchering of tolkiens work?
I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.
Do your worst!
I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂
It really does, I swear!
The point of this long arsed post is to give a heads up to older teenagers and college students who may be starting to experiment with illegal drugs, especially class A drugs and who may be naive to the way the police operate in the UK and to give some idea how to approach and handle being arrested. I'm sure others will have stuff to add and it probably won't be relevant to those in the know but some of this stuff was told to me by older and wiser heads and some I learned for myself.
Yesterday someone made a post saying their student friend had been caught and arrested for having half ounce of weed and half a gram of coke. OP was asking what their friend should do, what they should tell the police about where the drugs came from and if they should grass the dealer to save themselves from prosecution.
Apart from being flabbergasted at the stupidity of someone asking that, it proved to me how big a risk some dealers were taking by selling to older teenagers or students who didn't know or understand that if they chose to risk buying and using illegal drugs like Heroin, Coke or Crack, and they were stupid enough to get arrested, it was their own lookout, their own tough shit. Them getting arrested was in no way the dealers fault and they would be expected to accept any potential consequences like an adult.
People from all over the UK have been shot or stabbed and sometimes killed for grassing up their supplier. Generally speaking when you get involved in illegal drugs, even if you're a naive student or teenager the people you are dealing with especially those selling the class A drugs are not to be fucked with lightly.
From the very first moment someone is arrested and cautioned with their rights, they should not talk to the arresting officers about anything at all even if it seems harmless. Often the arresting officers after they have given the rights caution will seem very friendly, very chatty and all matey matey.
They may ask what football team you support, if you watched Coronation Street last night or what you thought of the strictly results on the weekend. It's very important to ignore all of this and any attempt by the police to engage you in conversation. The only thing they should ever be told at this point is name, address and date of birth.
If you are the sort of person who doesn't like the thought of being rude and ignoring someone who is talking to you there are two important things to remember.
The first is that these people who are no

Pilot on me!!
Heard they've been doing some shady business.
Posting about ourselves, posting everything.
Biggest news story of the week? "Ooh quick, I better post it to /r/rickygervais and talk about a little monkey fella. Must talk about a little monkey fella, it’s a /r/rickygervais post!"
"I must see pictures of little fellas with big heads playing the piano." Oh, and now there’s another baby who’s having a baby, maybe we should televise the birth. Get Ruby Wax to present it, maybe it will make Jimmy Carr’s 100 Cheekiest Freaks.
I’m not having a go at you, I’m just sick of these /r/rickygervais subscribers posting inane show references all the time. Why would you do that? And then these commenters, who choose the perfect moment to say "weird innit". They type that in before they’ve read the actual post, and then they come out and they submit their second Karl photo of the day - this one’s called "Head like a fucking orange?". Oh, he’s got a head like a fucking orange then.
And the commenters lap it up, and they upvote our posts, and that makes people think we’re important, and that makes us think we’re important. If they stopped commenting on Rockbusters posts, people wouldn’t take to the streets going "oooh, quick, I need to know how a Jamaican fella would pronounce Ed Sheeran". They wouldn’t care. They’d get on with something else. They’d get on with their lives.
You open a thread and you see a picture of a goggle-eyed freak, and the title is "Honestly, it could be your brother Steve", Of course it could be his brother! You’ve chosen that photo specifically because it looks like his brother! You’re literally the freak press.
And fuck you, the mods of this sub, as well. You can’t wash your hands of this. You can’t keep going "ooh it’s Cheeky Freak of the Week but it’s what the readers want". No! The Victorian Freakshow never went away. Now it’s called /r/rickygervais or /r/KarlPilkingtonFanClub, where in the new posts we wheel out the bewildered to be sniggered at by saucer-drinkers.
And fuck you for reading this at home. Shame on you. And shame on me. I’m the worst of all. ‘Cause I’m one of these people that goes "I listen to the XFM shows, it’s what I like." Yeah, it’s what I like cause listening to a real podcast is too hard.
I’d love to listen to a crime series podcast. Too hard, don’t wanna put the work in. Would love to be a fan of a politics podcasts. It’s too boring. So I go "ooh, it’s what I like", and I have s
