Do you watch the games?
And Dallas is the right team?!?!
Shows the popularity of the game in Ireland that is a smallish group of random people that so many of us follow it.
Agree about the Pats fan, have two friends that are and they are insufferable.0 -

YOU SHUT YOUR MOUTH!!! :pac::pac:
Oh God Pats fans. Give me strength!
Yeah, I watch every packers game live (except the night games for obvious reasons. I will watch any Thursday night games live, I don't work Fridays. I have a subscription to NFL Gamepass, I watch a lot of that programming. RedZone is great when games are blocked out too.0 -

Ultimate comfort food/movie/song?
Comfort food: Mashed potatoes. With real butter. I could genuinely eat bowls of it on it's own - and have done. Hence my faaaaabulous figure.
Comfort movie: Honestly, I think it's either the Disney animated Robin Hood from the 70's or The Holiday!
Comfort song: I don't know if I have a 'comfort song' but if I'm feeling a bit mopey I'll put on a playlist I've been adding to for like, a decade or more called "One Bar Fire". It's a silly thing, my Mam used to talk about when she was a teenager, having a little one bar electric fire in her room, and when was feeling all moody she'd just listen to records in her room with the fire on for atmosphere - I used to do something really similar without realising when I was a dramatic youngster Then that kinda morphed into a running joke between us of 'oh, that's a real "one bar fire" song!' So now I put them on and it's nice.First celebrity crush?
This is quite embarrassing but honest to god it was Jessica Rabbit, from "who Framed Roger Rabbit.
Honestly, but if you saw my wife now it all makes sense! :pac::pac::pac:0 -
Who is your biggest inspiration?
Oh man. That's a really difficult question. Different people inspire me in different ways really.
The biggest is probably my Mum - she was one of my best friends when she was alive and everything I do and how I act is informed by how she would have done it. She always taught me to be kind, look for the best in people and just do what you can to help. Sometimes that means people think you're a bit of a pushover but I'd rather be a pushover and help one person than be an asshole and cause people problems.
It's also not 'one person' but the gay rights activists who came before me are a huge sense of inspiration too. This year is the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall riots which really started the movement (at least in Western society) and last year was the 25th anniversary of decriminalisation of homosexuality here in Ireland. I owe my identity and being able to be me to them putting their lives at risk. If I had been born a few years earlier here in Ireland then I would have lived my teeenaged years under the knowledge that who I was was essentially 'illegal' (although no women were really under the confines of that law but that's an aside). It was bad enough growing up thinking I was a freak never mind illegal.
Jesus I talk too much.

I don't know how I missed this thread :eek: but based on the above two answers, I think we could be soulmates :P Is there any smell better than after rain? It's my favourite! And I also love Robin Hood - I have a RH & MM decoration for the Christmas Tree - it's one of my favourite ornaments! 0
