Agreed๐ for the most part anyway. Self professed 'Alpha' male types, like... can't remember the name, but the two toxic brothers who were jailed in Romania? I think, for human trafficking etc. They break that mould. And have a very misogynistic view of women. They're definitely not worshipping any femine image of perfection (paraphrasing). But yeah, I largely agree with you Gary.
It's really nice that there are some really good guys here. ๐

Hey Josh! I'm paraphrasing here: Men use the image of female perfection to motivate themselves. Women donโt really understand this about men: as long as theyโre not corrupted or bitter because of rejection, theyโre doing everything they can to โkneel before the eternal image of the feminineโ, and try to make themselves worthy. Thatโs the chivalry story, and thatโs worthy of encouragement.
But if you donโt see the woman youโre attracted to as an individual, and instead you see this judgemental perfect woman, then I have some bad newsโฆ
You can never have a relationship with a perfect woman, in order to have a relationship with any woman, you have to sacrifice your relationship with the โidealโ woman, and you have to see the individual woman for who she is, and separate her from your idea of โperfectionโ.
After all, nobody's perfect, eh? ๐คทโโ๏ธ

Far from it. First, thereโs no such thing as โnormalโ and secondly having ADHD isnโt a mental illness. Sheโs at worst โneurodivergentโ in that ADHD changes the way you think and process information, and speaking as someone whoโs lived/lives with people with ADHD, she handles it really well.

You said that the final task where they had to push a shape through a hole in the wall reminded you of a game show that originated in Japan. The classic "weird Japanese game show" that we heard about in the UK in the 90s via some Chris Tarrant show was, I think, called Endurance and involved going for as long as possible without peeing. Classy stuff. Perhaps thinking about poppadoms was a popular strategy. The mind boggles... ๐

Finally getting round to watching this now. I feel reassured that you also struggle to pay attention when they read out the tasks Mandy. Anything more complex than "smash a watermelon to bits" or "throw a teabag in a mug" and my mind just wanders off on its own little flight of fancy and when it comes back I'm just watching them doing weird things thinking, "what's happening?" ๐
paul
2024-01-10 10:07:26 +0000 UTC
Yeah I know, sorry, just my sense of humour. If you genuinely don't know what a gloryhole is, I'd suggest probably googling it, but it involves fellatio. Maybe not kosher for here. If your familiar with Plebs, there's an episode of that which involves it. Old men behind a wall with holes at about waist height. I'm aware of the show, it's just the first thing that came to mind when I read Hole in the wall.๐

Did you notice that there were no ad breaks (or commercial breaks as an American would say) and therefore no break bumpers with Little Alex Horne larking about? That's because you watched it on the official YouTube channel.
Never do that again. I hope you continue to watch the broadcast version in future. So much is missing from the YouTube versions. You also miss the antics when they throw to the break and come back from the break.
Some reaction channels have only used the YouTube version and don't even know what they are missing. Can they really claim to have reacted to Taskmaster at all?
Saying that, the break bumpers were nothing special in this episode. I can't even remember what form they took and I only watched the broadcast version of this episode for the first time 4 days ago.
Happy New Year everyone.

So you don't get Chinese in Argentina? But do you have Indian? Also, it's weird you can't get ground pork, cause that's literally what chorizo is made from. You could probably get away with substituting that into Chinese dishes. The Chinese ingredients would most likely overpower the paprika. Maybe worth trying.

Lenny Rush really is brilliant. Not only is he one of the most natural child actors i have ever seen, he also is very funny on his own. Something that is very rare for a 14 year old. I especially loved his look of disgust towards Deborah, when she tried to explain the toaster situation by saying that she doesn't understand toasters because she has an Aga (bougie range cooker that costs 10-30 000 pounds/dollars).
Interestingly Lenny has the same extremely rare genetic disorder as Warwick Davis has, which is called Spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia congenita.
