Discussion The Random Discussion Thread

Really poor form

You just labelling people like that that aren't here to defend themselves is way out of line. Most of what was said, was said with humour. Thank God there are still people in this world who aren't satisfied with being a bunch of arse kissing woke robots.

You killed this forum's mojo.

As I spent hours going through threads removing these posts, I know what was posted.

I didn't say whose posts I removed.

Banning people is not the only function of a moderator.

They get access to the secret lounge where there's cigars and scotch correct?



I'll chime in with my 2 cents as someone who has been on here for 13 years.
With everything coming out in the wash I think it's fair to say that whole period at the start of the footy season has damaged this board. Could it have been handled better? I have no idea, I'm not in those discussions to make an informed opinion.

I do however understand why the likes of George and Mowman have left.

In the end what's done is done. It will take it's time to fix.

Well, decided I CBF cooking tonight and HJ had a free delivery promo, so why not whopper it.

Firstly, took almost an hour.
Secondly, they forgot to pack my chips in.
Thirdly, the drink has no straw.

I think this is the last time I'll be having HJ.

See, I'm quite positive about getting HJ.


But there is the possibility that we are talking about different things?

Yeah, I was kinda hoping the StFly story would have a happy ending ?

To compound, I have lost a sock when doing my laundry, just one, and it's like it went walking from my basket as it was there, it went in the washing machine, then the dryer, and now it is not here and not in either of the two machines. I wished for a happy ending of good food and instead I am literally going mad in that I cannot find this goddamn sock.

my screen has gone all white letters on a black background with red trim.
All very nice and supportive.

How the hell do i turn it back.

 

[SaintsSeptember]

Found it, but i don't know how it got like that in the first place.

I used to blame my wife.
But since she left , i have always washed my clothes separately to anyone else. I have approximately 50 odd socks.
2 go in , 1 comes out.
Something very Bermuda Triangle is going on in clothes dryers.
I always manually tumble the dryer 1 rotation once its empty, just in case a stray sock drops down.

I figure i must have been pissed when i made it red black and white, because like that night with Jessica Alba i can't remember a thing. So far tonight i'm not too pissed or i wouldn't have worked out how to fix it.
Its important, a bright red black and white screen would look to conspicuous at work.

It's just me these days, I stuck my head in both machines and yelled at Gizmo to stop jacking off and to give me my clothes back.

I'm now positive it's just not here and probably on the way to the West Indies so it'll be back in maybe a week, randomly, and bring with it a friend of probably some pine needles...

Capricho Grill in fawkner is more than worth the extra 5 mins drive. It's like a good Nandos but better.

Last Thursday I decided to remove myself from my familiar surroundings in an effort to meditate on recent high
level elite stupid behaviour, thoughts and decision making that I tend to specialise in, in the process of self sabotaging
any happiness I fleetingly stumble upon in my sorry excuse or a life. There has to be a better way ? Right ?

So I decided to go camping / fishing in the Kolan River valley - north of Bundy.

I arranged for my neighbour to feed my cats and off I went. I didn't do much on the fishing front
but this wasn't really the point of the exercise anyway. Despite covering myself in industrial strength "Bushmans"
insect repellant and wearing trousers and long sleeves, on Friday I managed to get attacked by sandflies in a big
way.

Packed up and drove home yesterday.

The thing about sandflies is they are tiny and you don't feel the bites until hours later. My ankles, my legs below
the knees, the backs of my hands, my forearms and my neck and face are now covered with over 100 bites which
are indescribably itchy and now the bite sites are morphing into pus filled blisters. Have hardly slept now for the past
three days due to the feeling of my skin being sorta "on fire".

This morning I will go to the chemist to get some anti histamine creme and pills if I can although I worry I am too
late for it to have much benefit. Anyway here are some pics .......

Holy shit! You became fodder ffs

 

[Brian Oblivion]

Yeah. Don’t know what happened. The universe was speaking to me maybe ?

It still looks yuck but has settled down. Not itchy anymore and the stuff I got from
the chemist helped a lot.

Their other store is conveniently close to Linton Street.

1.3km v 36.4km single trip. Is it worth the 72.8km round trip?

In other news, I was going to have a sammich tonight, looked at bread, it is stone dry and not at all appealing so ordered a pizza instead as my effort just not there to dirty dishes then clean them again. I am thankful I have taken tomorrow off to supervise people changing things over on the house rather than waiting another 2 weeks as originally planned.

Gotta love it when schedules open up.
