I fucking loved pt cruisers

I think I still do

Literally how I spent the day back in 2008 whiling away the hours at a job I was overqualified for. Hitting the random article button. So many South American soccer teams though.

Honestly, I back the hustle. Even catch me outside chick. If that gets you ahead, fair does. Men have been espousing far more damaging rhetoric and making a buck. Go for it. Disclaimer: I’ve not listened to her podcast so she could be a Nazi for all I know. But young people, cost of living - if it works and it’s not hurting you or the community, then go for it.

FGF came out when I was a teenager. Me and my mates would’ve watched that over a hundred times. I can quote pretty much the whole movie. It has its place.

Yeah I think it’s the flat, arid looking neighbourhood plus the kids in costume on a mission - it’s very similar

Reminds me of ET when they’re all in costume

Can this stay on Reddit? We don’t need to copy everything over. It was so overdone over there anyway

I tripped and fell spectacularly walking in a supermarket. I was annoyed that no one helped me up or checked if I was okay (I didn’t need help but it made me think less of my fellow man) and that my partner was waiting in the car and didn’t witness it, because it was actually really funny.

I left embarrassment in my 20s. Don’t have the energy or interest in it now. And I know I’m not the main character - everyone’s living their own lives, the impact you make on strangers is minimal. At worst someone said when they got home from the shops ‘i saw this chick stack and it was kinda funny’.

Reminding yourself that no one really cares about people that don’t know is a helpful way to shut down the negative self talk.

Yeah you guys are 0 for 2 on that, hey. Might not be a good talent pool to draw from.

Yeah I checked - Aussie and I don’t see it in PayPal

No particular hat obsession that I’m aware of. Think you just knew a weirdo.

All of those things can be avoided by following Australia’s public health messaging that all kids have learnt since the early 90s. It started as Slip, slop, slap.

It’s now:

• Slip (slip on a shirt i.e. Cover your skin in the sun)
• Slop (slop on sunscreen and make sure you reapply)
• Slap (slap on a hat, ideally a wide brimmed sunhat)
• Seek (seek shade - you shouldn’t spend too long in direct sun)
• Slide (slide on some sunnies - protect your eyes).

While the country does periodically catch on fire over here, I love our summers. But to enjoy them, you basically have to remember that you’re made of meat and if left under the grill in the sky, you will cook.

If you’re morbidly obese I can understand summer being very uncomfortable. But for most people, taking simple steps can make even a 40°c day comfortable.

I’m starting to doubt there’s repeat attendees. I think these would be locals who’ve not had an opportunity till now.

I’ve commented the following before:

That’s the fun part of the far side.

When you don’t immediately get it you have to wonder:

1. Is it a reference to something at the time that’s not within my lifetime/country’s zeitgeist?

2. Is it a play on an idiom or common cliche?

3. Is it literally nonsense and absurdity for the sake of it?

4. Am I just a big dummy?

I think this time it’s 3.

There’s a giant being outside the window breathing at a volume that the lady believes is her husband coming down with a cold. They’re oblivious to the fact that the giant being is there. That’s the intended humour -it’s just absurd.

(It’s never 4)

I only got to institute this when I started working for myself. It took me a year or two to realise. For all clients or all agencies I sub for I have a strict no meetings before 930am rule. I haven’t told anyone why - my calendar is just blocked out so each probably individually thinks I have some recurring appointment with another client. Nup. I’m in bed drinking my coffee. I’m a shit sleeper, if I manage at all. I spent decades working to the early birds’ schedule. Fuck that.

But it is a privilege and very few can achieve that working in a company. It’s gross to suggest to people they can just do it. I know my situation is niche. To suggest otherwise is arrogant and ignorant.

Is this actually the case? Do you have a source? I’m genuinely curious, not having a go at you.

Are you in a locker room? By yourself? Why? And with this assortment of cheese? Why?

83

I mean maybe? But based on the very minimal information available, what it sounds like they’ve done is derive pleasure from activities that are only self serving (again, no negative sentiment intended. Life is short, do what you want) so maybe helping others is the new frontier?

Or they could be deeply depressed. Either or both is possible.

You’re… Yucky
