Who goes to target ?

So, funny story actually.

I went to my local Target, technically was in Target, but was actually in line for the pop up cafe directly across from the entrance as they had a special on doughnuts and pastries. By special I mean, don't bring a bag, bring several platters, me being the smart person inside target technically, grabbed a trolley instead, bought like a 50c chocolate that I immediately binned.

The only good thing Target was used for in my view, and I am both still thin and without the dia despite that sheer amount of sugar and pastry I consumed.

There's a meme going around at the moment of girlfriends/wives asking their man "How often do you think of the Roman Empire?". Answers ranging from multiple times daily to a few times a week in most cases.
It's a pisstake but I legitimately think there is a growing chasm between men and women in the quality of material they ingest on the whole.
The literature and shows/movies a huge portion of women are glued to is embarrassingly poor. Gossipy, HiLo milk rich erotica repeated over and over again just with different characters. Read the blurbs of some of these slop-fests next time you're in a book shop or Target.
If Grey's Anatomy is ever on in the background my eyes glaze over in the dead eyed rage of a school shooter. So, so insipid.

Before any warriors come at me with "mEn rEaD/WaTcH cRaP ToO!" - yes, I know people like Gringo exist, I just don't count them

I'm a man of refined taste. No Target books for the G man. 50 Shades of Grey and The DaVinci Code are literary classics out west but over in Grey Town we haven't had sun-beaten lobotomies yet.

I read one of Billy Thorpe's books. Back in the day when muso's had to drive to their gigs in vans , they were heading to Queenland from Sydney , one driving the rest smoking in the back.
One of them started getting really paranoid and thought the cops were following them. They told him it was bullshit, but when he saw lights coming from somewhere, he opened the back doors and threw their fairly large stash.

They stop the van and go looking for it. They go into a padlock and there is a Commune there. Some guy is running round with their stuff yelling "God gave us Weed ".

I technically still hold a share in a commune up in Nimbin, I tried to see what I could get out of it and they've changed the legal structure so that I get FA. I was hoping for a little holiday shack on the corner of their land. They all believe in sharing until you want something off them and then their lawyers come out.

I like paying $50 for a thin shitty T-Shirt at David Jones because it covers for all of my inadequacies and makes me feel better than everyone else. If I bought the same thing at Target with a different label someone might know that I'd saved money and see through the veneer of bullshit I've created.

Where you shop doesn't define you, unless it's Aldi. That place gives you gastro.

I'll give it a listen later. Chris Judd's missus has that shit Jaggard label that is like a bogan Lulu Lemon.

I reckon Dard is a wellness gym bro type operator. Can see him and the missus in their matching scrunch arsed leggings doing hot yoga for sure.

Cheap nappies in there I've heard

I got into gardening when I started growing chillis a few years ago.

Do seasol every 2 weeks, a liquid fertiliser like powerfeed (or whatever fertiliser you've got already liquid or pellet dosent really matter), and potash(pottasium) once they start fruiting/flowering.

Thanks! It’s cold for a few days they should be right right? Or should I bring them inside

Some near the mark, some far.
But its all in good fun isn’t it mateys

Yes, and dress them in little jumpers and scarves. They don't get hot otherwise.

Nah they'll be fine.

They'll grow in winter even in Melbourne. If there's a frost they can die but I've never had one die from that and we don't get many frosts.

Hey sorry if this is spamming but I posted in the Trevor barker thread with little response so I’ll post here ..

The Western Saints have two tickets to the Trevor Barker medal night that we cannot use due to being in WA… we are happy to let them go for $400 the pair so that’s about $100 discount on retail (I can negotiate) .. if anyone wants them then please let me know ..
Just to let you know where this $ goes it will be pumped back into the Western Saints to allow us to sponsor a player in 2024 as well as go towards running our game day functions here in WA (so not into my pocket )

Cheers
Trav

Just listening to PBS now - a band is doing a live to air - singer, I played with, sax player I taught when he was a kid
and the bass player who's ex-wife I used to bang before they got together. Small world still sometimes.

Sounds like wild times Sun Ra.

Lucky there is still some footage of your old band around to remind you of the good old days
