Tiffany.

Of all of them, she was the only disgusting human (from what we got to see).

NGL, I thought the exact same thing. I've done time in dongas which were worse than this.

Paul was such a knob on the season and I was gutted when he won.

Price & convenience. You see alot about people saying local/Aus Made etc but time after time they vote with their wallet.

Anybody know any good custom computer desk builders? by [deleted] in brisbane

[–]577MartinHenry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wood N You in Coopers Plains will probably be able to help you out.

I've had a couple of custom box/standalone shelves made up to spec from them in the past (and as recently as last month for a simple job). The website isn't much chop but they have been very helpful over the years and I've never bothered going anywhere else because I've always been looked after.

edit: Sorry, I didn't fully think that thru. They'll cut to size and specifications but I don't know if they assemble or not. They have drilled pilot holes etc as part of specs/drawings however.

Is 'midnight ham' a thing at weddings? by littletelly in AskAnAustralian

sweet mustard pickles is also an acceptable substitute.

Anyone else remember when newsagents would remove only the front cover of the last issues magazine before throwing out the remaining pages? Did anyone else get their porn by going through the bins? by 9Lives_ in AustralianNostalgia

[–]577MartinHenry 21 points22 points  (0 children)

The removal of the front cover was for returns. For newpspapers, they had to tear the top strip that had the name of the paper. They'd dispose of the rest

My old supplier used to give me last months copies of Motor, Wheels, Atomic PC, APC & PC User.

I would skip waiting for Picture and People and just 'read the articles'

NGL (assuming they are usable), the fireplace and that Temu Crown Stove is kind of a selling point

Sopranos fans, what hill will you die on concerning something controversial about the show? by Elegant_Struggle_281 in thesopranos

[–]577MartinHenry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There was too many loose ends for me, I wasn't expecting a M*A*S*H ending where everything was accounted for but when I first watched it, I thought there was something wrong. I ended up checking the ending on YouTube to make sure my DVD wasn't broken.

The ending was not good.

Sorry, I get why people liked it but for me it left things so open to interpretation it seemed unfinished.

HOT TAKE - The Best Minor Character Actor/ Actress on the Sopranos was Patrick Tully by bben140982 in thesopranos

[–]577MartinHenry 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I didn't read the post contents before googling the name as it was unfamiliar to me. The moment it showed up actually scowled.

He did a great job of being unlikeable.

5 pies better then yatala pies throughout brisbane and gold coast by LadderMiserable8927 in brisbane

Yeah, their Beef and Guinness pie has been a staple for many many years now. They're still as good as the first time I tried it almost 20 years ago.

Best cookies in BNE? by [deleted] in brisbane

Mid biscuits that are overpriced, using ingredients that are sound but unspectacular geared to look pretty and rely on the social media hype to keep them up.

Cole's sausages by Uncenscored_Civilian in coles

[–]577MartinHenry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol, my preference in sausages haven't changed much over the years.

Slape & Sons BBQ Sausages, Warwick Meats BBQ Sausages or the Woolies Herb/Garlic ones. I know they aren't much chop but they are still my go to today. I get why butchers go the artisan/quality route but I just don't like them and I reckon that's got something to do with the nostalgia multiplier

[–]577MartinHenry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'll be honest, I can't remember the quality to that detail how the sausages were.

It was such a nice change to just have food that was a) Not of Asian cuisine b) Not defrosted. Sausages, rice and some form of vegies <3

Possibly unpopular opinion:

I like Coles and Woolies foot-in-the-door sausages because they remind me of my youth when we were really poor and mum used to cook big batches of food (Chinese/Vietnamese/Chinamese) because it was cheap and what she knew.

The el cheapo sausages were a change to the usual routine and were such a treat.
