RomanceRe: One Year After My Son’s Death, What I Discovered On His Phone Made Me Cry by joviegghead: 1:39pm On Aug 05, 2020
Hmmm! Okay!

What she saw was just a reflection of what happens when you have no knowledge of what is going on in your child's life.

Back then, before the influx of tech advancements, parenting was quite easy since children had limited means to exhibit their youthful exuberance and desires. It was just school, church, and house.

Now, social media is like a get-away from the prying eyes of parents. And kids are smarter now. And most parents too are just too light handed to remain strict and firm on their kids. I think it's a story of value erosion caused by globalisation(a result of tech advancement again)

BTW, I think the woman spoilt the boy too. Because o don't understand how a well disciplined child would indulge in such.

SportsEuropean Team Of 2019/2020 Season. by joviegghead(op):
It may have been a delayed season, but Europe's top five leagues drew to a close on Sunday as the Serie A campaign reached its conclusion. Here, we take a look at the WhoScored European team of the season, with Barcelona, Liverpool, Bayern Munich and Manchester City all represented in the best XI... 

Goalkeeper: Jesse Joronen (Brescia) - 7.01 rating

Not the household name many would expect to feature in this XI, and while Brescia were relegated, they would have dropped down into Serie B far sooner were it not for Jesse Joronen's heroics between the sticks. The Finnish shotstopper's return of 4.3 saves per 90 was the second best in Europe's top five leagues this season, while no goalkeeper landed more WhoScored man of the match awards than Joronen (4) to secure his spot in this team. 

Right-back: Ricardo Pereira (Leicester) - 7.50 rating 

The first of four Premier League representatives to make the WhoScored European team of the season, Ricardo Pereira may have missed the final weeks of the Premier League season through injury, but the Portuguese right-back was exceptional prior to his absence. Despite missing the final 10 Premier League games of the campaign, Pereira still made the third most tackles (119) in Europe's top five leagues, 10 off Aaron Wan-Bissaka, who led this particular metric. Three goals and two assists helped the 26-year-old nail down the right-back berth in this XI. 

Centre-back: Virgil van Dijk (Liverpool) - 7.32 rating 

The sole Liverpool representative is colossal centre-back Virgil van Dijk. The Reds star was exceptional as the Merseysiders ended their 30-year wait for a top-flight title with their defensive resolve vital. Indeed, Van Dijk played every minute for a Liverpool side that conceded fewer goals (33) than any other Premier League team this season and was a key figure at the other end of the pitch, too, as he scored five times for Jurgen Klopp's side. The 29-year-old routinely display a statistically calculated WhoScored strength of 'passing' as he made more accurate passes (2903) than any other player to feature at the heart of the defence. 

Centre-back: James Tarkowski (Burnley) - 7.19 rating 

Partnering Van Dijk at the back in the WhoScored European team of the season is Burnley's James Tarkowski. Like Van Dijk, the Clarets centre-back played every minute of the 2019/20 Premier League season as Sean Dyche's season finished the campaign 10th with Tarkowski evidently central as he made more clearances (200) than any other player in Europe's top five leagues this term. The 27-year-old was aerially dominant, too, as he won more aerial duels (198) than any other defender to make the cut.

Left-back: Alphonso Davies (Bayern Munich) - 7.52 rating 

Rounding off the backline is the first of two Bayern Munich representatives. Alphonso Davies enjoyed a stunning breakthrough year for the Bavarian powerhouse as he made the left-back position his own for Hansi Flick's side. The 19-year-old pressed forward well as he scored three and provided five assists for the Bundesliga champions, and completed more dribbles (82) than any other defender in Europe's top five leagues. This is just the beginning for Davies, who'll use 2019/20 as a foundation to continue his development as one of the best left-backs in the game. 


Right midfield: Lionel Messi (Barcelona) - 8.71 rating 

The first and only LaLiga representative in the European team of the season is Barcelona sensation Lionel Messi. The Argentine supposedly endured a sub-par campaign, but still did enough to land the player of the season award as he yielded a WhoScored rating of 8.71 in LaLiga. Messi scored 25 goals and provided 21 assists for the Blaugrana in 2019/20, those returns ranking fifth and first, respectively, and completed more dribbles per game (5.5) than any other player. The 33-year-old earned the WhoScored man of the match award in 22 of his 32 league starts, at least 12 more than any other player, to occupy the spot on the right. 

Central midfield: Jadon Sancho (Borussia Dortmund) - 7.64 rating 

A player possibly returning to the Premier League in the not-too-distant future, Jadon Sancho enjoyed a wonderful season for Bundesliga runners' up Borussia Dortmund. The England international was one of a handful of players to register double figures for both goals (17) and assists (16), those returns ranking 22nd and fourth, respectively, in Europe. Only Alphonso Davies (82) completed more dribbles than Sancho (77) of players aged 21 and under in Europe's top five leagues this season, which contributed towards the Borussia Dortmund star's inclusion in this XI. 

Central midfield: Kevin De Bruyne (Manchester City) - 7.97 rating 

What could have been for Manchester City had they retained Sancho's services. Kevin De Bruyne joins his former City teammate in the midfield in the European team of the season as one of three players to create in excess of 100 goalscoring chances, laying on 136 key passes, more than any other player. Only Lionel Messi (36) created more clear-cut goalscoring opportunities than De Bruyne (33) in Europe's top five leagues, with his 20 assists more than any other Premier League player as the Belgian again excelled for Pep Guardiola's side. He'll hope to end the campaign with a Champions League winners' medal as City gear up for their second leg tie with Real Madrid on Friday. 

Left midfield: Cristiano Ronaldo (Juventus) - 7.82 rating 

The second Serie A representative plies his trade for champions Juventus. Cristiano Ronaldo landed the player of the season award with a WhoScored rating of 7.82 as he scored 31 goals and provided five assists for the Old Lady to land the individual gong for the second time following his arrival from Real Madrid in 2018. The Portuguese star managed more shots (208) than any other player, while his 23 clear-cut chances scored was the second best return in Europe's top five leagues to contribute towards his selection in the team of the season. 

Striker: Robert Lewandowski (Bayern Munich) - 8.13 rating 

The second Bayern Munich player to feature in the WhoScored European team of the season, Robert Lewandowski put in a stunning season for the Bundesliga champions as he scored 34 league goals and provided four assists for the Bavarian giants. Of those 34 league goals, 30 were deemed to be clear-cut goalscoring opportunities, that at least seven more than any other player in Europe's top five leagues, and the Polish forward bagged more headed goals (cool than any other player to feature on the frontline. 
 

Striker: Timo Werner (RB Leipzig) - 7.60 rating 

Partnering Lewandowski in attack to complete the European team of the season is Chelsea summer arrival Timo Werner. The German forward enjoyed a stunning final campaign for RB Leipzig, with his excellent showings culminating in a high profile switch to the Blues. Werner netted 28 times for RB Leipzig and provided an additional eight assists, while his 10 WhoScored man of the match awards was second only to Messi (22) in Europe's top five leagues as the 24-year-old returned a WhoScored rating of 7.60.

Moral justification? And who has the bestowed rights to determine what should be morally justified or not? You? Religion and it's belief?

See bro, the world is heading towards a liberalized outlook in everything including social values. As long as your rights or safety and wellbeing isn't being infringed in anyway, the show is justified.

We all have our preferences, but because something is disagreeable to you(stupid as you call it) doesn't outrightly make it bad or harmful. That's why people still watch the show.

While Ronaldo must need to rack up goals and trophy to be considered for an award.
So you sat comfortably to type this rubbish.

The footballing world has set it standard for Messi higher than any other player.
Every season, Messi is expected to win championship league. Why? Because his performances in cup and league matches are always top notch and everyone is tired to seeing him dominate locally and statistically across Europe . It's either he performs in UCL or forget. World cup wahala is still on is neck

Same can't be said for Ronaldo. Once he scores 20+ league goals, people start shouting for him to be given ballon d'or. How many times do you hear people setting world cup has a standard for Ronaldo? Never.

SportsChampions League History : Players With The Best Goal-to-game Ratio(See list) by joviegghead(op): 6:25pm On Aug 04, 2020
The Champions League is regularly labelled as the best competition in football.

Even the World Cup struggles to match the quality seen in Europe's premier tournament these days, with all the finest players on the planet facing off against each other every single season.

As such, scoring goals in the Champions League on a regular basis is mighty tough, with only two players in the competition's history notching over 100 goals.

They're of course Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, with the two generational talents setting an array of European records between them.

However, the two superstars do not come out on top when judging players purely on their goal-to-game ratio.



Messi has to settle for second, while Ronaldo - with his record 128 goals - is resigned to fourth spot.

Below, we've provided the 40 players with the best goal-to-game ratios in Champions League history.

All data sourced from Transfermarkt. Players with the same goal-per-game ratio are ranked by the number of goals scored.

Only players featuring since the 1992/93 season with 10 or more appearances in the Champions League have been included.

1. Harry Kane | 0.83

Kane's record in his opening 24 Champions League games with Tottenham is seriously underrated, while many will have forgotten just how prolific Van Nistelrooy was in the competition as well.

Neymar's ratio is also one of the most eye-catching in the top 40, given that the Brazilian is far from an out-and-out striker.

But he's made finding the back of the net in the Champions League one of his fortes, with the 28-year-old scoring 10 times in the competition during the 2014/15 season with Barcelona.

Is it possible that you are insane?
And if you're intelligent, you'll realize the questions asked by the op were leading questions. Question intended to make you think and lead to his answers.
Sadly, you're too blind to understand. Dumbass.

TV/MoviesWho Is Your Favorite Movie/series Character? (see List) by joviegghead(op):
So many characters come to mind, but these are definitely mine:

1.Harvey Reginald Specter(Suits) :

If you don't/haven't watched Suits something must be definitely wrong with you.

Harvey specter is the main character in the series Suits, played by Gabriel Macht. He's a highly intelligent, handsome and confident lawyer.
However he's known to very arrogant.

When described in 3 words by people who he had come across or knew him, one word kept popping up in every individual description: 'cocky'. In fact, someone described him as: 'cocky, cocky and cocky'.
He is also loved by fans for his witty lines and quotes ( you can Google Harvey specter quotes).

2. Elijah Mikaelson(Vampires diary/Originals) :
Elijah is an embodiment of extreme calm, gentlemanliness, yet bloody brutality.

He is the brother of the protagonist, Klaus(power hungry and murderous) and acts as his guide and conscience.
Elijah made me watch the series. No one else.

3. Sherlock Holmes(Holmes) :

A character played by one of my favorite actors Benedict Cumberbatch.
He is known to possess high mental abilities which helps him solve extremely difficult cases.
What I love about him is penchant to show off his deductive abilities without care, his knack for insulting with no remorse and his completely emotionless personality.
He practically told someone : ' Everyone knows when you talk you reduce the IQ of the whole street'.

4. Peter Hale(Teen Wolf) :
A character and first villain in the series Teen Wolf played by Ian Bohen.

Though murderous, cold and scheming, Peter hale cold, dead calm and proud self sets him apart from others.

Other Notable mentions:
Deucalion(Teen Wolf)
Thanos(Avengers)
