Banter RDT CLXXXVIII - Big Weather

[Mop]

Sounds like a real fun time.

Did you try not doing that?

I'll let you know in a week.
I'll be off work for the 5 days of the election, so I have time to make myself insane.

There are only two boards: the Eagles board, and the FJGD board. Everything else is an elaborate lie. Particularly the so-called "Freo board". I mean what sicko would dream that up???

Are you going to build a wall too, Mr E?

Country is a risk of being in flames this time next week regardless of who wins

Either the MAGA crowd cry stolen and storm the White House again or the far left crack it over Trump winning and decide to burn everything down

Most powerful country in the world and they’re going to run by a living caricature or a giggling puppet

I can't wait for the result and fall-out - sans people getting physically hurt by it however.

More interested in their result than I am in Australian elections.

An article I read this morning which made me think of you.
I knew half this stuff, my local crows are generationally friendly, and I developed a similar theory after helping one from a dude being mean at a shopping centre once, but here's some scientific fact.

If You Think You Can Hold a Grudge, Consider the Crow

The brainy birds carry big chips on their shoulders, scientists say. And some people who become subjects of their ire may be victims of mistaken identity.

The birds known locally in Perth as Crows are technically Ravens.

Same rules may apply, but y’know…just sayin.

Did you even read the article, cloudy?

Ravens are specifically mentioned.

I give you a gifted paywall-free article and you don't even read it

Cheers Mop, I do love a freebie. However, not commenting on article, just the local use of Crow over Raven

If you want to get technical, we have both crows AND ravens.

So Edgar Allen Poe wrote a poem about a grief-stricken lover who wanted to forget but couldn't, with a raven - a creature with long memory - as its central symbol. Hmm

Old mate Edgar knew his zoology!

And Freo will pay for it.

This episode is the only reason I know that poem. The same can probably be said for most of us.

Condolences mate, hope you're doing okay.

That is awful, the worst feeling going. Very sorry brother, doggo looked like the goodest doggo

Thanks guys, appreciate it

While we avoided a predicted brutally hot week it sucks we drop down to low 20’s. Would actually be nice if we can get a period of mid to high 20’s before summer starts to scorch up

[Godfather32]

Sorry to hear mate

Good looking dog too

Thanks mate

Stop trying to force summer on us early!!

The ignore button is your friend.
I could never ignore you, Bender boy.

I wish we could share blocklist profiles. I’d love a preset list of the common posters a majority of people ignore around here.

Wasn't there one guy a few months ago who was blocking anyone who so much as talked to him. He's probably sitting there wondering why no one's posting anything.
I don't have anyone on ignore but there's a few posters I just scroll past most of the time. I think some of the most unintentionally entertaining stuff on here comes from some of those muppets so if they start going off I want to see it

I thought ravens were bigger and in the US

Bo all i want is consistent weather. I don’t want to feel cold and sweaty weather in space of days.
