I see the guys are at my old stomping ground of Bendigo for a community camp….possible target for exiting Tassie maybe? Good to see them up there…

I hope so. That would be a smart play. Hopefully we can settle on one area long-term now.

I bite - they stick into my gum. Is there another way other than bite and chew?

Turn the taco.

Don't bite them point side up? Tbh I've never had that issue.

 

[Makeshift Park]

I love Mexican, it’s probably in my top 3 national cuisines. I cook some variation at least once a fortnight, and yet I’ve never seen the appeal in hard tacos either.

 

[SpiderBurton22]

you've never had soft shell?

I go for the soft shell underneath the hard shell. You still get the crunch but it doesn't shatter everwhere and disintegrate all over your shirt.

That's awesome. Never even considered doing that, but I will now.

I think there has been enough division on this thread before we start on hard vs soft tacos….
Can we all just get along and agree, most English cuisine is rubbish

Literally the origin of this meme, of course...

Tacos are over rated rubbish. Big $$$s for corn chips that cut your gums and salad. Pizzas - culinary delight - and I use a knife and fork. Sometimes I do lower myself to the peasant class and use my hands when it is appropriate.

Costanza vibes

How the * is it even a thing?

Who ******* cares. If North's post bothered you then you are pathetic and need to get a life. Get some bloody perspective.

Reading the outrage here while perusing the socials over the weekend what struck me was the fact that virtually every major sporting organisation in the world was wishing the Chinese a Happy Lunar New Year and I wondered if they too faced this backlash. From what I could see, no.

you've never had soft shell?

Yeah Tainted Love was huge back in the day.

Are…are you a wizard from the future? I’m legit doing this.

We’re a small club. We have some supporters who have the time and energy to post 200 times a day. It amplifies small minority view.

In this example, once a creepy politician blew it up, a whole bunch of outsiders swarmed in like flies on shit.

Standard of living was higher in Australia than Europe when the invasion happened.

I reckon that depends on where folks were here.

Certainly mobs like the Gunditjmara lived far healthier and wealthier lives than their peasant compatriots in Britain or Ireland.

And literally wealthier - I've posted before about how in much of England eels were used to pay rent to the landlord.

Gunditjmara had giant pools of the things they'd developed sophisticated machinery to farm.

And no prick on horseback with a sword to come and take half once year.

Spider out here doubling his ultra processed carb intake in 2024, madness.

When you consider that the first fleet was largely Irish convicts pinched for stealing to feed their families, and the English overlords couldn't afford to build prisons, well **** me if that sounds like a thriving economy with a first world standard of living for all in Sunbury (on Thames).

Visiting Budj Bim was one of the most amazing and illuminating experiences of my life.

They were majority English no, and some had committed relatively serious crimes, but agreed by and large they were the poor refuse of British and Irish cities and victims of a brutal economic order

Throw in the several endings of large scale warfare and little to no pension system for ex soldiers

Just checked and yes you are right, there was a majority of English convicts but also a shit ton of Irish. Almost all convicted in English courts for crimes committed in English cities. The most serious crimes seemed to be assault* and highway robbery but most were for theft.







* to think, old mate who belted Chom and Ziebs could have been deported halfway around the world in another time and place.

One of my ancestors was transported to Tassie at the age of 14 after being r*ped. By some toff pos.

Going to blow your mind even further....

Little bit of liquid nacho cheese or queso between the soft and hard shell tacos.
