McGregor's just a c*** in my opinion. Overrated, and overhyped.

Women's rugby players are either incredibly fit or butch as ****. There's no inbetween.

Don't mind McGregor, but if you're gonna be that guy who chats **** you better back it up or else you look like a proper mug.

Reckon Diaz will have him again.

back to work.

Working at the city library, who are paying my company to come in and give english language sessions to elderly people..

Nice easy gig tbh..

Gave them a little talk today about DIY, as we are currently decorating our new premises.. and it became all about how they dont think the younger generation are very practical.. old people of anywhere love nothing more then *****ing about the young..

I got them to write a list of the 20 practical skills they think all adults should have.. this is what they came up with:

1, Re-wire a plug
2, be able to fit a sink/deal with the plumbing
3, be able to change a tire on a car
4, check oil on a car
5, paint a wall (well)
6, wallpaper a wall
7, basic woodworking(build a simple box/table)
8, be able to drill/fit things to the walls (pictures/shelves etc)
9, Know how to grow basic vegetables
10, Be able to cook 5-10 meals
11, Know how to prune trees/bushes
12, Be able to treat a wound
13, Build flat-pack furniture
14, Start a fire without assistance (lighter fuel etc)
15, Basic sowing skills/fix clothes
16, Be able to ride/control a horse
17, Change a fuse
18, Change a bulb
19, Drive a car
20, Shoot (rats/pigeons etc)

So that's what a group of 65+ elderly Chinese (mostly men) think every adult should be able to do..

How many do you tick off?

Probs on only about ten. Half the stuff is near useless anyway, typical old people stuff people don't know it because it's redundant. Horse riding, vegetable growing, lighting fires. None of those skills are ones people use in the modern world outside of hobbies.

Superhero films are generally ****.

Also Dark Knight is the most overrated film in history.

Why so serious?

3, 4, 8, 10, 13, 17, 18 and 19.

Not a great number but who needs to do half the other stuff? Why grow vegetables when you can always go buy some..

A lot of it is very circumstantial.. for example out here in semi-rural china, a lot of working men still ride horse/cart around.. whereas in england, its pointless...

Similar with the outdoor stuff, pruning + growing.. quite usefull if your from the countryside, but pointless if your in the city.

DIY is usefull I guess, but then again if you have money, and can afford someone else to do it..

I actually enjoyed Suicide Squad, I loved Harley Quinn, Joker and Deadshot. Admittedly the plot is pretty weak, but it's not completely **** as film critics were making it out to be. 7/10 for me.

Felt that Joker was let down by a bad film tbh. Will Smith played Will Smith as usual. Movie was ok though, definitely not as bad as BvS.

I'd love a film about Harley Quinn and Joker, I thought Margot Robbie and Jared Leto were exceptional.

Leto wasn't very good imo. Tried too much to play the Joker and ultimately it made him look desperate.

Captain Boomerang was the best.
