Top 10 The Boys characters

Oi!

So The Boys has quickly become one of my all-time fave tv shows in recent years thanks to its brash humour, disgusting violence, strong characters, superpowers and ridiculousness. Of course, it's cast and story is fantastic too!

I am here today to simply list 10 of my fave characters from the Amazon Prime hit show. 

Please, if you are not easily offended and disgusted, give it a watch.

10: M.M.

After his father dies while trying to expose Vought, Milk vows to continue his journey. He joins The Boys before quitting to live a quiet life but is later persuaded to return. Milk's detective skills tend to benefit the group greatly. Thanks to him, The Boys can locate A-Train's Compound V stash as well as find out where Kimiko is hiding. He is great at keeping his colleagues in check too as he is the only one who normally gets to call them out whenever they go out of line.

9: Black Noir

Known for his martial arts skills, Noir is the ever silent assassin of The Seven. Noir is basically this series version of Batman but with a twist of insanity thanks to compound V. Thanks to his extraordinary skills, Noir always makes every fight scene a quality one. 

8: Queen Maeve

Queen Maeve's similarities with Wonder Woman are easy to notice. These range from their origin stories to their costumes. Maeve is also a feminist, humanitarian, and member of the LGBTQ community. Maeve is likeable because she isn't amoral. Unlike her colleagues, she knows the difference between right and wrong, hence she always tries her best to avoid doing things that hurt others. Sadly, her hands are ever tied, making her unable to do anything about the injustices she witnesses, including Homelander's decision to let a plane crash.

7: A-Train

While portrayed as a superhero and celebrity athlete, the reality of the character is even more twisted, as he's shown to be an egotistical and narcissistic Supe who cares about nothing else except being the best. He's the catalyst that sort of inadvertently started the series of events that we follow in this show, If he hadn't hit Hughie's girlfriend, we would have not been watching this show and seeing our characters grow and move with the world we know. 

6: Starlight

Having dreamt of joining The Seven ever since she was a child, Starlight soon learns that the group isn't what she expected. She, therefore, conspires with The Boys to bring it down. Depicted as the girl next door, there is hardly anything not to love about Starlight. She is kind, compassionate, and reasonable. She never hesitates to stand up against oppressors either, and as such, even Supes like Homelander have come to respect her. And despite having powers, she doesn't see herself as better than normal humans, a perspective that leads to a wholesome romantic relationship with Hughie.

5: Kimiko

After serving in the Shining Light Liberation Army, Kimiko gets smuggled into the US where she becomes one of the people injected by Compound V in an attempt to create supervillains. However, she breaks free and chooses to do good. Kimiko's unpredictability is what endears her to fans. Since she doesn't speak, it's never easy to figure out what she's going to do. On many occasions, she follows her instincts rather than rely on an operating procedure set up by The Boys. And she is such a brilliant combatant that the police even think her salon massacre is a well-coordinated gang hit. Kimiko and Frenchie have a sweet relationship going on too.

4: Soldier boy

Soldier Boy was introduced in part because Homelander needed a rival, but he turned into someone much more interesting than that. Terrible in a totally distinct way from Homelander, Soldier Boy is really all about old-fashioned masculine ideals, and he’s willing to do pretty much anything for the revenge he feels is owed to him. He makes an uneasy ally for Billy and Hughie, but it’s with his help that the two of them come as close as they ever have to actually taking down Homelander.

3: Hughie

Hughie joins The Boys to get payback after the speedster A-Train, after he "accidentally" runs over and kills his girlfriend while chasing criminals. Hughie is our main protagonist of the show, and he's an everyday guy and easy to relate to. He isn't overly confident or valiant hence why viewers always get the feeling that he'd rather be doing something else. Still, he understands the importance of the mission and always tries to get out of his comfort zone and get the job done. 

2: Butcher

The leader of The Boys is a former British special forces member who has a vendetta against Homelander. This stems from the fact that the Super sexually assaulted his wife, Becca. Butcher often taking an ends-justifies-means approach, Butcher always does everything he can to try and bring down Vought International. That's why he goes as far as to take the V24 to be as powerful as the Supes. His high intellect and no nonsense actions have also made it difficult for Homelander to come up with a way to defeat The Boys.

1: Homelander

As one of the most powerful members of The Seven, Homelander enjoys being a bully. Homelander is basically The Boys version of Superman, but more twisted and more self obsessed. Homelander has become one of the best modern-day TV villains. Whether it's pushing his son from a roof, killing a crowd of innocents, letting a plane crash, having sex while killing people or pleasuring himself on top of a skyscraper, there is nothing psychotic he won't do. He's a bastard, but we love to hate him. 

That's my list now let's just wait for the next season to roll out so we can binge and enjoy the madness of The Boys. #FuckTheSupes

Thanks for reading and visiting my blog, see you again soon and remember to, Stay shiny!

Top 10 Superhero Animated Shows

Superheroes are everywhere, and who has not ever dreamt or wanted to become one?

The original series premiered in 2005, and since then, the franchise has expanded with various sequels and spin-offs. The "Ben 10" franchise has evolved over the years, with multiple sequels and spin-offs, including "Ben 10: Alien Force," "Ben 10: Ultimate Alien," "Ben 10: Omniverse," and "Ben 10 (2016)."

The franchise's continued success reflects its lasting appeal to viewers of all ages.

9: Invincible

The most recent series on my list will be the more adult themed superhero show Invincible. "Invincible" is an animated superhero television series based on the comic book of the same name by writer Robert Kirkman and artist Cory Walker. The show was produced by Simon Racioppa for Amazon Prime Video and premiered in 2021. "Invincible" addresses mature themes, including morality, identity, and the consequences of power.

"Invincible" stands out for its gripping narrative, well-developed characters, and a willingness to explore the darker aspects of superhero lore. It has been praised for its mature and nuanced approach to the genre, making it a notable addition to the superhero television landscape.

8: Powerpuff Girls

    When I was a child other boys would usually look at you weirdly if you watched "a girly" show like Powerpuff Girls, however it was actually excellent and IF those people who looked down on the show bothered to watch an episode they would get a lot more out of it than what they thought. "The Powerpuff Girls" is an animated television series created by animator Craig McCracken. The show premiered on Cartoon Network in 1998 and quickly became a popular and iconic animated series. Bubbles, Blossom and Buttercup help inspire a generation of children with their strong, independent female characters. "The Powerpuff Girls" is celebrated for its humour, unique characters, and its positive representation of strong female protagonists. It remains a cultural touchstone in the world of animated television and has retained its popularity over the years.

7: Teen Titans

T-E-EN T-I-T-ANS TEEN TITANS LETS GO! The show that made me love the young group of superheroes is the Cartoon Network first run of the show. Mature story line and good laughs and memorable moments made this show so good and really put TEEN TITANS ON THE MAP! "Teen Titans" is an animated television series that premiered on Cartoon Network in 2003 and ran for five seasons until 2006. The show was created by Glen Murakami and Sam Register, and it is based on the DC Comics superhero team, the Teen Titans. The series features a memorable soundtrack, including the opening theme "Teen Titans Theme" performed by Puffy AmiYumi. While "Teen Titans" concluded its original run in 2006, it has remained popular through reruns, home media releases, and streaming services. The series is praised for its engaging storytelling, well-developed characters, and unique approach to animated superhero content.

6: X-Men Animated

Without this show, I probably would not have known or heard or cared about the X-men. Awesome metal theme song that was so catchy with its screeching guitar. Memorable characters and moments. The show introduced me to Wolverine, Rogue, Gambit, Cyclops, Jubilee, Magneto, Gambit, Cable, Sentinels, Mutants, Professor X, Jean Gray and so many more! "X-Men: The Animated Series" is an animated television series that originally aired from 1992 to 1997. The show is based on the Marvel Comics superhero team, the X-Men, and it became one of the most beloved and influential animated adaptations of the X-Men franchise. The iconic and memorable opening theme, composed by Ron Wasserman, is one of the most recognized and beloved theme songs in animated television. The show's success led to the creation of various X-Men merchandise, including action figures, comic book adaptations, and video games. "X-Men: The Animated Series" is celebrated for its faithful adaptation of the X-Men comics, its engaging storytelling, and its contribution to the cultural prominence of superhero animation in the 1990s.

5: Superman animated

"Superman: The Animated Series" is an animated television series that aired from 1996 to 2000. Produced by Warner Bros. Animation, the series is part of the DC Animated Universe (DCAU) and serves as a companion to "Batman: The Animated Series." and also the next entry on my list. Tim Daly provides the voice for Superman/Clark Kent, Dana Delany voices Lois Lane, and Clancy Brown voices Lex Luthor. The strong voice cast contributes to the series' quality. The show has the same distinctive look and feel as JLU and Batman Animated Series. The series introduces new characters, including the sympathetic villain Mercy Graves and the superhero Steel (John Henry Irons). The musical score by composer Shirley Walker adds to the epic and emotional tone of the series. "Superman: The Animated Series" is considered a successful and well-received adaptation of the Superman character. It contributed to the enduring popularity of animated superhero shows in the late 20th century.

The series has continued to be appreciated by fans for its faithful representation of Superman, its engaging storytelling, and its contributions to the broader DC Animated Universe.

4: Justice League

Not to be confused with it's sequel JL Unlimited, The series explores the dynamics within the Justice League as these iconic heroes come together to face powerful threats that no single hero could handle alone. The series features a notable voice cast, with Kevin Conroy as Batman, George Newbern as Superman, and Susan Eisenberg as Wonder Woman, among others. Compared to previous animated adaptations, "Justice League" adopts a darker and more mature tone, reflecting the tone of DC Comics in the early 2000s. "Justice League" is considered a landmark animated series that brought together DC's most iconic superheroes. It paved the way for the expansion of the DC Animated Universe with the sequel series "Justice League Unlimited."  After two seasons, the series was rebranded as Justice League Unlimited, a successor series which aired for three seasons. It is the first series in the DC Animated Universe to fully use digital ink and paint, also the first to be produced in widescreen starting in Season 2.

3: Batman Beyond

I was a big fan of this growing up, and I need to rewatch it Terry was such a breath of fresh air to Batman and I need more badly of this show or a live action film or something more to continue or reboot it please. "Batman Beyond" is an animated television series that aired from 1999 to 2001, and it serves as a continuation of the Batman animated series franchise. Created by Bruce Timm, Paul Dini, and Alan Burnett, "Batman Beyond" explores a futuristic Gotham City and introduces a new character taking on the mantle of Batman. The series is set in a future Gotham City, approximately 40 years after the events of "Batman: The Animated Series." Technology has advanced, and the original Batman, Bruce Wayne, is now an elderly man. "Batman Beyond" introduces new villains alongside some familiar faces from Batman's rogues' gallery. The series explores the impact of futuristic technology on crime and vigilantism. Will Friedle voices Terry McGinnis/Batman, and Kevin Conroy reprises his role as the voice of Bruce Wayne/Batman. The continuity in voice casting helps bridge the connection to the previous animated series. "Batman Beyond" received acclaim for its fresh approach to the Batman mythology, blending noir aesthetics with a futuristic setting. The series has maintained its popularity over the years and is considered a standout in the realm of animated superhero storytelling. Happy 25 Years To Batman Beyond!

2: Spider-Man (90s animated series)

Growing up, I was a big fan of Spider-man and the number 1 spot on my list. It's a shame we never had more of this amazing show. The "Spider-Man" animated series from the 1990s is a classic-animated television show based on the Marvel Comics character Spider-Man. It originally aired from 1994 to 1998 and is widely regarded as one of the most beloved and iconic adaptations of Spider-Man in animated form. Unlike some animated series of its time, "Spider-Man" embraced long-form storytelling, with overarching plot lines that extended over multiple episodes. This allowed for more in-depth exploration of characters and story arcs. The series had crossovers with other Marvel characters and storylines, introducing viewers to characters like the X-Men, Iron Man, and The Fantastic Four. The series is well-known for its catchy theme song, composed by Joe Perry of Aerosmith. The theme song is often considered one of the most recognizable and beloved animated series themes. "Spider-Man: The Animated Series" is celebrated for its engaging storytelling, memorable characters, and its ability to capture the essence of Spider-Man's comic book adventures. It remains a nostalgic favourite for fans of both Spider-Man and animated superhero television.

 

1: Batman The Animated Adventures

OK growing up to no surprises I loved and binged these top 3 but the most I watched and had action figures of was from Batman. "Batman: The Animated Series" is an animated television series that originally aired from 1992 to 1995. It is widely regarded as one of the greatest animated series and one of the best adaptations of the Batman character. Created by Bruce Timm and Eric Radomski, the series is known for its unique visual style, mature storytelling, and iconic voice cast. The series is renowned for its distinctive Art Deco-inspired animation and design, giving Gotham City a timeless and atmospheric look. We had all of Batman's rouge gallery appear, but also we had a brand-new star arrive and breakout from the series one we all know and love named Harley Quinn. This show had a star-studded cast, the iconic Kevin Conroy, the legendary Mark Hamil and Arleen Sorkin. The show won many emmy's. Shirley Walker provided the Danny Elfman inspired soundtrack from the Batman 1989 film. The influence of "Batman: The Animated Series" extends beyond its initial run, with its legacy evident in subsequent Batman adaptations, animated series, and the broader landscape of superhero storytelling. It remains a beloved and influential cornerstone of animated television.

Random Ramblin's 38 - The Phoenix Lifestyle

What's up? It's been a while since I have done a RR (random ramblin's) and to be more precise, it's been months?! 5 MONTHS!? OH MAI GAWD I NEED SUM MILK! 

What's new?

As you can see my postings have been somewhat irregular? Well the reason why that is as you should know by now is that I have been busy enjoying and living my life with my beautiful woman. She's been my rock since January and hell before that even like but January is the official start. She's been pushing me to do and try new things and I have. I aim to do and make more changes as time passes also but for now it's been all fun and games and laughs and smiles with us and I hope you've been enjoying life too! :)

I have not been writing here so much or on my Word program much at all really these past few months but i have been writing and not a lot is finished nor published yet but soon they will be just be prepared. I have been writing quite a bit in my notebook mind you so just to let you know all is well and things are on hiatus whilst i continue to actually enjoy living my life, which might sound or come across wrong but i feel for the longest time i have not lived and now i am so that's new. I am seeking suggestions for lists and top tens and anything you can shake a stick at so hit me up any time and i might get cracker lacking on the writing.

The reason behind the title is that i feel reborn like my life is not the same as it use to be and i hardly recognise my past life now so here i am risen out of the ashes like a Phoenix and may i burn brightly forever more.

Tv Watch List
The Flash, Izombie (final season), Gotham (final season), Game Of Thrones (final season), Big Bang Theory (final season). A lot of final seasons are going and ending this year. I am going through them slowly and i have been enjoying. Also me and my Mrs been watching dragonball again from the start so it's a hell of an adventure we have on our hands.

Detective Pikachu - Although amazing in its cgi and visuals the story and characters fall rather flat and you can easily figure out whos bad and good and whats going to happen before it happens in this film so thats a bit disappointing but its humorous and it's largely upheld thanks to Ryan and Justice and their relationship and chemistry and Ryan does practically carry the entire movie i would say with ease but i enjoyed i wish i had this film when i was a kid. 7/10

Games

Spyro 1 is done but 2 and 3 are yet to have been started.
I got life is strange season 2 to begin aswell.

Fortnite as ever changes every season and it always has ups and downs but with a friend or two i still have an immense amount of fun playing it.

I have finished Walking dead the final season it was an emotional tense rollercoaster i enjoyed every minute of.

I am currently playing Animal crossing new lead on 3ds.
I am dying to play MK 11 and A Way Out.

Music
Slipknot are back with a new album coming soon aswell as new song called Unsainted which is a heavy hitter and displays the bands new album sound or a taste of it aswell as revealing the members new masks because here we are in the new era of the Knot. I love it and all out life is also a banger but apparently is not featured on the new album, strange that. Unsainted = 9/10

Serj Godzilla cover song is brilliant 9/10.

Taylor Swift has returned with Me! - A catchy colourful video featuring a brilliant collaboration with Brendan Urie of Panic At The Disco fame. Me = 7/10

Jonas Bros have resurfaced with 2 new songs and a new album on the way and Sucker is catchy and Cool is just bad. Sucker = 7/10

NEWS
So breaking news is that WWE has suspended their contract with sky sports and are moving to BT sports. 30 years of sky sports wwe is over.

Ashley Massaro former wwe diva has passed away.
Alabama is being some backwards ass fools to ban abortions.
Twilight's Rob is being eyed to play Batman. WTF?

Black hole was sighted and memed.

That's all the news right now that i remember or that i can be bothered to report and say something about right now if you want me to be as truthful as possible lol.

I'd like to end my post with something my honey told me: "I can't improve on what's already there, that's you, yourself and you are everything". Thanks Honey and for being so supportive of me and everything i have done and do. I am so lucky to have her so grateful to have her in my life by my side supporting me through everything, I am always there for her 24/7 she is the best honestly.

Random Ramblin's 33 - A Witty Title

Could not think of any other perfect title to sum this post up or to even start it so here we are everyone, welcome to my blog and to RR 33....How did we get to 33 let alone past 10!? Oh well lets get roight into the nooos.....

Hello there metallic nation, are you well? Hope you are. I am fine thanks for asking.

I hope GIFS are working again i was having problems with them once my spiderman review was posted weird....

Been working on 7 Ebooks almost finished them, of course it's taking its time and i do get delayed due to gaming, films or time i spend in work or making youtube videos or just writing other things or just socialising with friends really lol.

John is just looking for my ebooks in a store.....they will be there some day John.....some day...

New series has started on my youtube channel called Weird News Sunday where Sunday's i post weird news commentaries, its bizarre and i plan to keep doing this til end of summer so far with time depending on things you know see how it goes.

Just heard George A Romero has died :'( R.I.P. The Godfather Of Zombies.

A female DR WHO eh? Don't have nothing to say besides it be a miracle if the new cast and crew got me hooked on Dr Who again. I've not watched a full series since Tennant left. I'll just wait and see how the first episode with the new faces in control do to then decide if it's worth continuing to watch or not. Was quite funny how I went to text James the news but I ended up texting my dad it instead lol.

Took this stunning picture of our gorgeous Moon from my Nikon camera. Took few others but i felt this shine out more than the rest. I had a overwhelming response of love for the photo also on facebook.

Woke up with a Sparrow flying about in my room. Weirder ways to wake up I suppose....

Been a mostly boiling month to say the least. 

Been having some crazy days lately. Hope its not just me. The other night i seen a bright white flash come from outside my window it was 5am at the time, i seen it enter through my blinds and i looked out and there's nothing, no cars, no moon, no thunder or lightning. I think i am in the twilight zone.

Friday I was at work and well i was out front setting up to get ready to serve and my colleague was out the back. I say this again there was just us two and the doors to public were locked still as we had not opened shop. Well anyway i was looking at the paper work and i looked up and i jumped a mile honestly, it freaked me out and still has me spooked that i seen an old man in a grey flat cap hat and grey jacket look straight at me from the other side of the counter right in front of me. Honestly i swear i seen that. I jumped a mile, its mad how i could make out such details aswell, It was that clear the old man was stood in front of me, opposite my counter and the doors to public were locked and all other doors are fire exits in the building were and only me and my colleague who was still out back had only access to get in. Looked up, I seen the man i jumped a mile, blinked and he was gone it was the strangest thing. Bah i think i'm just finally going crazy or something yet again most likely :P

TV BIT

Glow, Better Call Saul Season 3 and Izombie Season 3 were all amazing. Murdered for being different was a heartbreaking biopic. 

FILM BIT

Me and the two James's watched War For The Planet Of The Apes and we enjoyed it. I hope we can have more, this series has been amazing so fingers crossed. 8/10 

Finally seen Baby Driver after my colleagues been saying i should see it and how amazing it is. I seen it and i really enjoyed it 8/10 

Seen the Mist and Twilight zone movie both good. 

Seen Spiderman Homecoming twice and i will link a review down below.

Hate the looks of the new Jumanji film. 

GAME BIT
Completed Mass Effect: Andromeda (see link below for review)

Been mostly playing Ghost Recon Wildlands its an ok game been having fun playing with new friends i made on it. I'd give the game 6/10 tbh.


Overwatch i played  a few games of last night for the first time since January i think...

I always play supercard, legacy wars and rocket league as ever lol no change.

Top 10 Sitcoms!

It ain't half hot mum but this list is. So hi de hi to you all!

Today i will be counting down the list of my fave top 10 sitcoms. 

This topic was suggested by Louis Evans so shoutout to him and a big thanks to him also. 

This list was so tough to make but i have just finished it and it'll do for this point in time as my list is always changing since i love so many sitcoms and there's always new ones coming out so you know. 

Ok this is it. 

At number 

10: Porridge

It's a show about The prison life of Fletcher played by Ronnie Barker, a criminal serving a five-year sentence, as he strives to bide his time, keep his record clean, and refuses to be ground down by the prison system. It ran for 4 years on the BBC channel and is such a hilarious classic show that it's still remembered and aired in the uk to this day. 

9: Father Ted

Crazy sitcom about 3 priests and their housekeeper who live on Craggy Island, not the peaceful and quiet part of Ireland it seems! It ran for 3 years on and off and had 25 episodes and it's comical humor is still great today, as i can always find it being rerun late at night on tv and rewatch and laugh as if it was the first time i am seeing it. Classic. 

8: Mr.Bean

Life is a difficult challenge for Mr Bean, who despite being a grown adult, has trouble completing even the simplest of tasks. Thankfully, his perseverance is usually rewarded, and he finds an ingenious way around the problem. Mr.Bean started in 1992 and has always bean one of my fave characters and shows despite not much diologue taking place the character is so hilarious with his actions and situations he gets into and the things he does. Mr.Bean has had animated series, live action series, 2 movies, countless sketches for charity and Rowan Atkinson still does bean things today of course. The character is not retired or anything just he has breaks before we see him pop back up again in these days. Such a classic show and character though not much else i can say other than BEAN COMEBACK! You know the intro was always weird to me when he'd fall down from a spotlight the angelic choir made me think oh he fell from heaven its just a joke then another thing makes me wonder is what if he got abducted by aliens and is now this stupid man of what he used to be lol People have often talked about Mr.Bean as if that it's cruel this program and character is because it makes the audience laugh at a differently abled man when it should not be the case. I dont know about that or laughing at him because the character is handicapped as people put it but i just laugh because it's funny because it's mr. freakin bean and he is just made up and a hilarious character written perfectly. 

7: Scrubs

In the unreal world of Sacred Heart Hospital, intern John "J.D" Dorian learns the ways of medicine, friendship and life and death. I don't want to class this as strictly a comedy even if most aspects of it are comedic but it's also very dramatic too. I love scrubs the characters the writing the people the lessons and music and actors all blend in perfectly well and i love them so much. Some episode make me roll on the floor in laughter and others make me sit in bed crying eating pizza. That's the power of scrubs. The series after 8 was terrible by the way enough said there. 

6: Fawlty Towers

DON'T MENTION THE WAR! Hotel owner Basil Fawlty's incompetence, short fuse, and arrogance form a combination that ensures accidents and trouble are never far away. John Cleese is so amazing so funny this is what makes the series great just his character's relationship with everyone and his interactions especially him and Manuel's relationship. Classic show. 

5: Blackadder

For this i include all of the seasons of Blackadder and not just season 1 since the different seasons and movie have different names and time era's of which they are set in. Blackadder is home to so many iconic cult moments, characters and quotes. All i have to say is Baldrick and no doubt some of you out there will know what i mean and yes i do mean the character but no doubt you will have a fave moment in mind or quote. 

4: Friends

10 years 236 episodes friends is the tale of a bunch of friends who live in Manhattan and tells the tales of their comedic lives quite frankly this is all it's about it's such a classic i have seen every episode at least three times growing up. 

3: Only Fools & Horses 

Classic comedy following the misadventures of two Wheeler Dealer brothers Del Boy and Rodney Trotter who scrape their living by selling dodgy goods believing that next year they will be millionaires. So many classic scenes characters and quotes such a loveable and iconic series. 

2: Red Dwarf

The adventures of the last human alive and his friends, stranded three million years into deep space on the mining ship Red Dwarf. Iconic classic one of my fave series and it's still ongoing too its a cult classic. 

1: The Simpsons

The Simpsons is an animated sitcom about the antics of a dysfunctional family called the Simpsons (surprise surprise). Homer is the oafish unhealthy beer loving father, Marge is the hardworking homemaker wife, Bart is the ten year old mischievous underachiever , Lisa is the unappreciated eight year old genius, and Maggie is the cute, pacifier loving silent baby. Spanning almost 30 seasons 1 movie and has run for almost 30 years with multiple comics,dvds,vhs,games all about the simpsons its a massive cult icon in the world today everyone knows of it and will no doubtly be in everyone's list some way shape or form when making their own surely. Classic series and it's no surprise it would be in the top spot. 

Honourable Mentions!

Dad's Army

The Young One's

Vicar Of Dibley

Family Guy

Keeping Up With Appearances

One Foot In The Grave

Gavin & Stacey
The I.T. Crowd

Random Ramblin's: Part 5 - Back to biz

Alri? or as James Davie seems to like "WAAAAZZZZZZZZZZZ UPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!???"

Back to a regular thing now as ever with my blog posts, by the way a special shoutout to people who read my posts and also a big thank you to you aswell you legends! ALSO i would like to just say thanks again as the last post was my most read so thanks all!

Last one was serious and not so upbeat or ranty was it? Well this time do not fear but do play your frets as we go on a walk down the annual watt the fuck trial of my random ramblin's.

5 - That number is my lucky number to be honest it has served me well for when i have been associated with the number for example school sports day getting the number 5 stuck to me and winning a egg and spoon race i believe i won once? Yeah once XD I am a big lad aint always been there was a few years of my child hood where i was skinny mcgee but for years i have been big lad scott to some and motherfucker jones to some others and i have been stj for many more but anyway i like the number 5. It is my lucky number as i have said.

Sign Language TV shows - Why the fuck are these types of shows on at early mornings? "3am?! OH BOY time to watch wwe with sign language wrestler Mark "The Signer" Jobber" Yeah good thinking tv organizers. I suppose in a way also its good idea because deaf people can't hear their alarms go off can they? So,they just wake up random times like whenever they want which is some how according to tv channels 3am in the morning?! DA FACK!? F-F-F-F-F-F-F-FAACKIN-BOOOLSHEEET!

Teens of today - Why and what the fuck is the cause of them being so stupid?! Their talk now consists of the following - "Lads,top quality bants,on point,cheeky nandos,cuz,swag,yolo, banter,lad and '#" they basically can and will combine all those words to make a sentence and their friends automatically know what they mean i mean what the fuck is this shit its like speaking in binary code!? EXAMPLE: Dai: "Oh Rhys lads night owt den c'mon yolo like init lad son?" Rhys: "Ah i dunno like i be off with the lads at 6 for lads on tour cheeky nandos night swaggin son #cheeynandos #ladsontour!" Dai: "Oh that is most slamming like i come to like but we gotta be on point slammin son with the lads like proper #cheekynandos and pull sum birs later init?!" Rhys: "Sahn do not even get me started cuz with that banter! My misses dumped me like she was tossing Aaron off last night while i was with her watching eastenders it was most cheeky not nandos worth doe!" Dai: "Oh im sorry butty but she is a slag tho" Rhys & Dai: "TOP QUALITY BANTS!" Rhys: Yea yeah tidy dai cheeky nandos you ledge and pullin sum birds like sounds like a proper top quality night you lad son #cheekynandos #ledge #brick #hashtage init swaggin night because yolo its most proper quality top bants" URGH!? WHAT EVEN!? You feel like an alien sometimes or even in a area full of aliens what even is this?!

People that know you,yet you do not know them?! - WHAT EVEN!? I hate it when people go "Oh alright Scotty boy long time mate" and i am stood there looking at this random person male or female like "Uh who teh fuck are you?" and they go on and on and on about "Oh you know me mun matey" then shakes my hand or gives me a hug and says "bye see you round yeah?" and walks off. It always has me stood there for almost hours after in the exact same spot like "who the fuck was that?! did they rob me? who the fuck was that?! WHY DID THEY HUG/SHAKE MY HAND?! WHO THE FUCK WAS THAT!!!???" I go home then and its on my mind and i ask family members but what the fuck do i even say "Some boy/girl came up to me today in a blue hoody said they knew me and hugged/shaked my hand? what even who even do you even know em?!" Then they are like "No not ringing any bells but blue hoody? Oh it must be your brothers/sisters mate" and that is then more confusing. WHY DID THAT RANDOM FUCKTARD NOT TELL ME WHO THEY WERE OR HOW I WOULD KNOW THEM INSTEAD OF GREAT ME LIKE I KNOW THEM AND LIKE I HAVE NOT BEEN SEEN IN AGES?! Beats the piss out of me. Weird expression that i just used. "Beats the piss out of me"? what the fuck scott? Can someone beat piss out of you? That would be weird,never had the piss beaten out of me personally it sounds like some fucked up pornographic content to beat piss out of someone.. URGH EW MOVING ON! #ChessyNundoes

Bedtime - In this i mean, i say to myself for example right now its 5am and 2 hours ago i was tired as fuck and i said "im gonna go to bed at 4am" what the fuck happened scott? how does time go so fast when you are internetting yet in work its like taking forever!

Battery Powered Cars - So when can i get a car that operated on duracell double a's? It would be more efficient and cost effective being i'd only have to pay £5 for a pack of 10 to power the thing haha!

Robot Wars (brit tv show) - In this day and age robot wars would be fucking mental! 20 years ago well almost it was so fucking insane then people making robots out of everyday things and they made cool ass robots yet today can you imagine the shit people be making oh man it would be killer! PLEASE BRING BACK ROBOT WARS!

Movie Leaks/Spoilers - The facebook pages are doing my sweede in! "EXCLUSIVE ONSET 10 NEW PICS OF THIS NEW FILM CLICK HERE" FUCK OFF LEAKING THIS SHIT!? YOU ARE RUINING FILMS! Same goes for trailers. TRAILER MAKERS,GIVE US AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE NO BIG SCENES OR ALL THE GOOD BITS INTO 30 SECONDS TO A MINUTE VIDEOS THAT RUIN THE WHOLE MOTHER FUDGING FILM!

My Dad On Tattoo's - So my dad is awesome so is every dad out there (except scum bag dads aka ones who leave/kill their kid or get them into drugs and abuse them, yeah those kind of dads are scum bags or scum dads but scumbags and fuck tards neither the less.) Anyway my dad is against tattoo's right he has worked everyday of his life in different jobs and i broke the news yesterday that i am booked in for a tattoo and now he was surprisingly curious. I was told by my Mam that he does not like them or wants his kids aka me,my bro and sis having tats ok? So my sister has a few and he seems ok with it now i know at the time when my sis had her tattoo's she was like "don't tell dad" etc of the tats and no one really did until she did and she showed him herself right. So i told my dad i am having one on my right leg "CFH" pantera logo ok and he said to me "why have a band tattoo when give it 10 years time that band is gonna be dead?" so obviously as you can guess he does not know of my fave band too well so i replied "but the band is technically dead just 10 years ago their guitarist got shot dead on stage but the other members are alive besides its nothing much for a first tattoo" and he just replied to me "oh ok then." that was that basically. Ah my dad some day i shall write more stories of him and maybe or hopefully document his life on film and his time in the mines, yes that is right but i will save more for another day.

Speed Bumps - Why are they called that? They slow you down not speed you up? LOL!

Vines - Remember last year when they were all the rage and everyone loved them and how good they are. You look at them now and you are left like "da fuck was that shit?" R.I.P. GOOD VINES

Lets play a game! FMK Aka Fuck,Marry,Kill: Harley Quinn,Poison Ivy & Catwoman so FMK? - OH SHIT SON! THIS IS A HARD ONE (NOT A SEXUAL INNUENDO)  Oh god uh well hmm god damn wait ok ok, F = Harley Quinn, M = Catwoman & K = Ivy. Why Ivy should die? Because well she is poison and could kill you! Well all those girls could but i have more trust in them, now i am wondering what Ivy's garden is like. I better move on before i get or YOU get any ideas in your messed up head! XD

BANDS/ARTISTS FORGETTING WALES - WHY YOU DO DIS!? WE WELSH LOVE MUSIC! Yet almost EVERYONE forgets to PLAY HERE! Like FFDP they go "Oh er hey guys uk fans we are doing a mother fucking tour of uk and europe so see you again soon check online for dates" I check online and those mother fuckers are playin 1  date and its in fucking london!
