[Falconista]

You know what they say about people with big hands


they wear big gloves

And, following that, they get immortalised in Bigfooty profiles.

Yes they do

That I kick

 

[Ligma]

Certainly not me

Maybe in the future they’ll come out

Maybe in the future they’ll come out

Well I am from the future

That I kick

She a baddie, she gonna kick 10 goals

 

[Ligma]

Well I am from the future

Well this is awkward…

Well this is awkward…

Not as awkward as telling the missus that the time machine broke and we got stuck here 2 years before covid.

I have never lived this down

This is true, I also kick lots of goals.

Sausage rolls >>>> party pies

Frequent and unexpectedly

 

[GWS Goose]

Just heard a thing on the radio about bizarre interactions.
Though this may be a good SFL topic.

I'll go first.
I was once talking to a barista about Vietnam, some old bloke storms up from his table and calls me a lowlife, tells me that I'm way too young to have been in Vietnam and if I m going to big note myself make it believable.
It's not till he starts saying stolen valour should be a crime that it twigged that he thought I was talking about the war. I tried to explain I was just talking about a holiday, he just waves me off and keeps interrupting by yelling stolen valour, stolen valour.
He than stormed out "before he did something he'd regret"
Very confusing encounter

 

[GWS Goose]

Funny enough, the only time I had heard of stolen valour was about Sargent slaughter the wrestler. At some point some vets got all angry he wasn't a real marine .
Must have been when Kayfabe still.ruled.

The PTSD and hurt 'Nam vets are living through is appalling.

 

[Falconista]

My bizarre encounter:

I once DM'd an up and comer called DragoDelph about joining the Gumbies. He tells me he's 'happy at the Dragons' and won't be leaving.
Very confusing encounter.

However, I managed to turn this rejection into a promotion by going extra hard at trying to recruit rookies and recruiting the wonderful rye (hope you're still breathing mate and can enjoy tomorrow ). Not sure what came of that Drago guy.

January 2007, I was staying in a hostel in San Diego for probably 5 days and the 2nd last day I went to the kitchen for lunch or dinner (too long ago to remember those details) and there was one other person there. When they turned around we both had that recognising look on our face, as it was someone I had done a group project with at uni back in 05 - they were studying at uni over there & staying in the hostel for cheap accomodation


Or then there's the numerous times I have randoms asking me if I'm the mum of blah or blur, I try to explain to them no before being told I look exactly like said kid and they struggle to comprehend that I'm not the person they think - would be really scary if I was considering I have no kids

international run ins are wild.

My cousin and uncle (also her uncle) ran into each other in a back alley in Venice, neither knew the other was in italy at the time and neither planned on being in Venice they each had a couple days spare on work trips and both went to Venice for the Weekend.
Crazy.

 

[GWS Goose]

Do you know what I find crazy, how different brothers can be.

For instance Albert Einstein is a genius who changed the world. His brother Frank is a monster.

Falconista philreich you guys are ruining me. I made the mistake of interacting with one Dad joke, now they are breeding on my feed.

To be clear, philreich and I are not brothers.

Phil likes corny jokes and puns while supporting the smaller, port based AFL team in a state west of Victoria. I meanwhile....oh shit.
