  1. Just don't come on this thread then, man. Seriously. You stopping that is far easier to manage than asking everyone else to hou bek.
  2. Y not both? ????????‍♂️
  3. Exactly. But then you could have said that at any point in the series and been spot on. Sansa is a survivor, and Jon knows nothing
  4. So? Just don't come on this thread then. "we" didn't agree anything, either. You just asked for no spoilers, and assumed we'd all go along with it. I also only watched it after work yesterday. But did I come on this thread, or 9gag (where there IS an agreement that any spoiler will be downvoted to hell purely by numbers) Stretch, not having a good at you. I just find it a bit perplexing that despite any spoiler, you rail at us for discussing it. On a thread dedicated to series. And the biggest series of all, at that.
  5. Sorry dude, but in this case you're coming to a thread where you know the majority of conversation will be around the biggest series currently on TV. It's now been out for 36 hours and If you don't want spoilers, don't come to the thread. Same reason I won't go to the MotoGP thread the day of or after a race, unless I've already seen it. Plus. There's only been one "spoiler" that I've seen, and that was the Jamie and Brienne one, which was still vague as hell.

  7. Had watched half before it started buffering horribly. Wanna watch it cos Leana Heady.
  8. Especially when it's as cultish as Sonic, Warcraft, Diablo, Doom etc
  9. Thanks! Was hoping it was something like that.
  10. No, need to get used to them properly still Initial experience: bloody stiff, turn (react to input) much much faster than my Alu wheels, lighter, easier to accelerate. I should have bought them sooner, in other words. I wasn't expecting as much of a difference as what I felt.
  11. Seconded. Just need someone to pass the motion
  12. Wait. The assguys haven't failed me yet, and if it looked like I was blaming them then that's definitely not the case. I want to run them in winter to see their grip then. In the dry, they've been nothing but stellar. I was actually going to light ride today as a test cos the shoulder and pec muscles had largely recovered. But this morning put paid to that. It's bloody painful now with even moderate breathing
  13. I tried. Even have deathgrips to give me that extra advantage. I swear the bike tjooned me "Dom naaaierpoes" as it rolled by me on the floor
  14. No, not at all. The blame was mine entirely, anf even though I was still getting used to them and the carbon rims, I was the one that stuffed up. No tyre would have been able to save that. All down to me. Was just saying that at some point, grip doesn't matter cos you're asking it to do something it just simply can't. In my case, that was trying to do something stupid, on a bike that was reacting far faster than what I was used to, thanks to THOSE rims. Resulted in a sideways and downward facing front wheel and a washout that was super fast.
  15. I sneezed really really hard this morning and felt and heard something pop. Back in, or out, I'm not sure yet but since then it's been agony as much as the initial 2 days. Shoulder is better, but oh my goodness this was painful.
  16. Yep. And heavier than a Mary in supergravity. But she grips. Until I give her an unsaveable situation, where I literally had the front tyre sideways and resulted in my latest injury. Slightly better transition than Mary, which is saying a lot. Outright grip? Don't much know yet but will try to find out this winter. To live up to the Mary though will take a Herculean effort. Re rolling resistance. Up front I don't give a fark. At the rear I care about that, which is why I've chamfered the mid knobs of the Mary I've now relegated to back tyre duty cos it was time to move it there.
  17. Mary > DHF in my opinion. Pity, cos if you were 650 I'd sell you the spare Asseguy I have in the van.
  18. Netflix is VERY dangerous in that regard. Start new series. Woops, it's suddenly 2am and juuust one more. Sun comes up what feels like 10 minutes later.
  19. about R 90. Will confirm on my commission statement now Max commission I receive for a med aid client is 108.99 p/m incl VAT, which means what the broker house actually gets is R 94.77 p/m once VAT has been stripped out.
  20. for med aid, it's paltry. Between 50 & 90 or so per month per membership. We make most of our money from life policies (which is a % of the premiums, calculated over a certain amount of years and paid up front in a lump sum) and investments (% of assets under management) Some brokers (not gonna call them advisors, cos this is a crap practice) still sell RA's and Endowments with up-front commission, which results in huge cancellation / reduction penalties, high fees and larger commission figures. In which case, the ONLY reason they're selling 'em is because the commission is much higher than what they'd receive on an as-and-when basis, for recurring contributions.
