giggirl - you are in here at your peril! Or you don't mind spoilers I guess...


Keef - The scene I mean is when Brother M's flunky is looking for Omar and visits a gay bar - something he is incredibly bothered by. Anyway dramatic scene follows, with flunky leaving as he is watched by the regular customers - including an alone, on the pull Rawls in a not-very-festching sweater

Aaah, one of the great quotes of the show


Brother Mouzone: You're the perfect bait. They will view you as conflicted, you're homophobia is so visceral.

Lamar: See that. I haven't even walked in the place yet and you're already calling me a cocksucker.

I'm here!


Ahhh, The Wire. I'm currently reading David Simon's Homicide and some of the characters are obviously the basis for future Wire characters.


I'm not sure where to begin on here though.


Favourite character? Spiros.

Favourite scene? Tough one, but probably in Series 5 where the opening events show Michael being chased through a deserted warehouse and you think he's going to get killed, he ends up shooting Snoop and the whole thing turns out to be a training exercise. Gripping stuff.

Keef beat me to it.


Ooh, am reading homicide too, it feels weirdly like watching (err in word form) a documentary about the making of the wire.

But it's very cool!!

Back to characters.

Does Herc have any good points? There are times I really want to kill him, but he's earnest I guess, just stupid, and he does actually catalyse Marlow's downfall.

    • I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.   
    • @NewWave I know how you feel. Like you, I've lived and spent prolonged periods of time in some pretty crazy places and always thought I could handle a bunch of kids. But, no - they got to me and I was shaking like a leaf afterwards. That's what age does to us.  But I did engage with them, so bear that in mind.  My advice would be to never let anything like that stop you doing the things you love. I'm certainly not going to stop using the park, there's no way they get to take away our cherished spaces!  If you see them, just change tack and keep out of their way. My dog won't even go that way again, so that's that problem solved. (If I see them again, I'm going to keep taking photos from a safe distance). 
    • Truly horrific. Being passive or fighting back is what many of us think about by violent theft. 
    • What ridiculous waste of money
