The horrible neighbours are moving out!!! ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿฅณ๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿพ๐Ÿฅณ๐ŸŽ‰

Now you can dispose of the mannikin dolls responsibly, harvesting the pins as you go. As I am sure you would.

Suck it USA

We donโ€™t remember wanting a team to lose this much

Americas Cup back in the 80s. NOTHING beats the hate on for the USA at that time for that event. Including cartoons in the Age AND the Herald Sun, some of which were very funny. The Tandberg of 2 obese yachties poring over a thick book and one says to the other - there must be something in the rules that says we have to win even when we don't.

Rant about this mornings stupid graffiti stuntOn one hand, I donโ€™t want to give him any attention, but on the other handโ€ฆ absolutely fuck that guy who climbed the Bolte and vandalized it with that garish bird. I get so annoyed every time I see them and now with the absolute waste of money and time that will have had to go towards this itโ€™s extra infuriating. Maybe if heโ€™d had a proper message aside from โ€œtaxes lolโ€. The energy and effort that would have gone into a stunt like this could have been impressive had it not been such a bullshit act.

I was hoping they'd shoot him down.

[โ€“] RustyRaven@aussie.zone 2 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

I'd just ignore him. He'll get hungry and come down eventually. They know who he is, they can just go and arrest him later. It seems like a waste of resources to hang around waiting for him.

If you stop traffic for stupidity there needs to be punishment.

[โ€“] SituationCake@aussie.zone 1 points 4 weeks ago

Heโ€™s a menace. Hopefully theyโ€™ll lock him up longer this time. How does he think the police that had to deal with him are paid, and how is the bridge gonna get fixed? Taxes. Taxes that could have gone elsewhere. Thanks for wasting our money ya drop kick. The bird is not even appealing either. Iโ€™ve seen better graffiti on a bin at my local train station.

Apparently it's World Chocolate Day, can someone please partake on my behalf?

... maybe that's why I'm so cranky today.

Also, Sally is the most unoriginal name/numberplate for a Mustang.

You service is appreciated, thank you!

[โ€“] SituationCake@aussie.zone 1 points 4 weeks ago

Great song though. Yes, I will gladly consume chocolate on your behalf. And anyone elseโ€™s.

My boss recognised the almost feather like softball I tossed him to unfuck the situation. All is well.

Yay.

Late night last night but I was cooking on an edit of the footage I got from the basketball game. I'm really proud of how it has turned out

woke up, bad headache

why isn't it 7 am

Boss wasn't in yesterday. The olive branch will be extended today.

Threatening the guy who makes you the most money because he had covid a few weeks ago is just laughably dumb.

Edit: and also illegal apparently lol.

people are dumb and don't realise how kind smart people are to them ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

I started watching Shantaram and I don't know if I can continue because Charlie Hunnam's fake aussie accent is doing my head in. It's so bad.

[โ€“] SituationCake@aussie.zone 2 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

I havenโ€™t watched it, but I sympathise. It grates my ears listening to bad Aussie accents. If you want to hear a good one, watch Apple Cider Vinegar. Couldnโ€™t believe it when I found out the main actress is actually American. Very unusual for an American to nail an Aussie accent.

[โ€“] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 1 points 4 weeks ago

Yeah I have seen it. She was good.

[โ€“] tombruzzo@aussie.zone 2 points 4 weeks ago

Got accepted to buy a new Steam Controller. I think I'll do it and see how it compares to its older brother, which I really like but never got into using as much as I should have

Bolognaise with spiral pasta at our place. Topped with plenty of fresh grated parmesan. Good winter comfort food.

[โ€“] SituationCake@aussie.zone 2 points 4 weeks ago

Nagiโ€™s chocolate pudding recipe is a winner if you like a rich chocolate custardy dessert. Had it with some raspberries on top, delicious. recipe

I finally got the email confirming the payment of my Rego rebate. I was starting to wonder if I was ever going to see it!
