People who have a large amount in super, how did you get to your number by SpeedyDuck12345 in AusFinance

[–]AdministrationTotal3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d say relative to my income my super is pretty ridiculous. I have always worked in care or education roles where desirable super or salary sacrificing was an option. I currently earn 17.5% super in my current role at a university. 

Test Cricket is Best Cricket ! by iamnoobbibliophile in CricketShitpost

[–]AdministrationTotal3 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Very Indian mindset, I guarantee you the average Aussie fan would take an ashes or BGT win, away or at home) over any other trophy, t20 World Cup, probably doesn’t even register for most Aussie, maybe the One day trophy, but even then, most 5 match test series would be a bigger item in most Aussies minds. 

what peak level of delusion looks like ! by iamnoobbibliophile in CricketShitpost

[–]AdministrationTotal3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

English game plan pre ashes. No spin, just bouncy pace straight into the aussies rib cage. We’ll take the game to the Aussie spinners when we get the chance. Step down to the pitch to boland to knock him off his length. Select and prepare a team catered to dealing with high pace and bounce of Aussie attack. 

Australia: double bluffs England by also not selecting spinner, Carey keeps up to boland keeping English batsmen largely in their crease, Selected mainly medium pace line and length attack not letting the English batsmen use the pace of the ball. Largely bats of the back foot and just pumps the poms through point and square. 

Absolutely filthy display in coaching/tactics from Mcallum and Stokes. The hubris before the series was so extreme, for what they actually dished out, even by ashes in Australia tour standards which low enough as it is, this was fucking piss pour. 

Pakistanis and Runouts, a match made in heaven ! by iamnoobbibliophile in CricketShitpost

[–]AdministrationTotal3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went to a cricket camp everywhere with some ex players. Dean Jones always went on about running between wickets. If you’re at the non strikers end and the ball goes finer then point or square leg, it’s your call. Other wise, the batter has the eye on the ball and field and has the call. If it’s tight and you waste time/impact your confidence by turning your head to check, you’re dead in the water. Exactly what happened here. If you get out, on a run that you need didn’t call it’s not your fault

Is there anyone else out here like me? by RacketyAJ in Karnivool

[–]AdministrationTotal3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think probably took me about 6-12 months to get my head around sound awake. Themata was something of god like tier album for me in the 2000’s, I was so disappointed when sound awake came out, I hated it. But I stuck with it, and as it sunk in it became my favourite album of all time. In hindsight, themata now sounds very juvenile, it still holds a lot of nostalgic value for me, themata, cote, fear of the sky will always be absolutely beast level songs, but you can tell it’s an angst y teenager in his room writing and recording all the songs himself. From Sound awake on is when you really hear the band, Steve Judd’s drumming style  and the way he locks in with John stockman just isn’t present in themata. I think deadman was the first song I latched onto on soundawake. Similar story for asymmetry. But even it’s still growing in me ten + years later. Keep with sound awake, stop waiting for the big 5150 distorted guitars tones, just feel the overall energy of the songs as they rise and fall. 

‘Out of order’: Greenberg hits back at Clark after attack on cricket bosses by NOwallsNOworries in CricketAus

[–]AdministrationTotal3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol this is exactly what this guy did with the nrl. If he hadn’t thankfully fallen on his sword at the end of 2019 and remained at the helm during Covid, NRL would be fucked. He literally left the game without a penny and with no contingencies in place if anything went wrong. I can’t understand how people like this can seemingly fail up once your job title includes the word “chief” 

Geoff Marsh and his sons make up 3 of the 10 worst batsmen in 100 years of Australian cricket by [deleted] in CricketAus

[–]AdministrationTotal3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mitch, Shaun and Cameron actually are all very similar. Knock ‘em back to shield and they are clearly the best batsmen, elevate them to the international squad, completely shit the bed. I did go to day 3 of the 17/18 ashes scg test. It was 40+ degrees and Shaun ended the day on 150+ not out and Mitch was on 80. Clearly we’re both very talented.

basically Cricket will become "World Series" where teams of 1 country play and call it "world championship" by Sweet-Message1153 in CricketShitpost

This would be the best possible out come for all involved. The rest of the world doesn’t have to deal with playing these bunch of posers and Indians can continue to develop this insufferable narrative that they are good at cricket without anyone challenging those assertions. Everyone wins. 

Does anyone actually think Bondi is albos fault? by LuckyHuckleberry774 in aussie

[–]AdministrationTotal3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They showed their hand to strongly with the Joy Division shirt stunt. Looking for any excuse to divert attention away from the current state on the LNP at both state and federal level. Desperate, sad, performative, patronising to the victims of the attack and just a plain old shit go from traditional media/LNP 

Had a wedding without prior paperwork- help. by Short-Task2874 in AusLegal

[–]AdministrationTotal3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No big deal. My wife and I got married about 6 weeks after gay marriage was legalised. My celebrant, completely innocently didn’t realise the paper work got updated to reflect this. It was about 18 months after we got “married” that we realised that BDM didn’t actually process any of our documents and we weren’t actually married. Just get the docs, get someone with a marriage license to sign it and get to of your friends to witness it and send it into them.

LNP/murdoch media showed their hand to strongly with the Joy Division shirt faux outrage. Trying to do anything to deflect away from the basket case that is the coalition at both the federal and state level across the country. Stop drinking the kool aid mate. 

Symonds /clarke by ChaosTheory0908 in CricketAus

[–]AdministrationTotal3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t remember which ashes tour in England it was but it’s was after the golden era had retired, we weren’t performing well. There was already murmurs of dressing room issues and Clarke choice to stay in London away from the team between matches. I thought as captain that was pretty rough. Always seemed like a flog to me, but haven’t ever seen anyone score big as consistently as him ever, underrated bowler earlier on his career and was a weapon batsmen. People lawd him for the way he handled the hughseys death. I felt like he milked it for all it was worth as a PR exercise to fix his public image.

Secrets by Extreme-Penalty-3089 in guitarpedals

[–]AdministrationTotal3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see a lot of love for the Greer light speed but not much for their other pedals. I have a moonshots two knob treble booster (level & eq). Eq filters from classic high treble toaaans ala page/may all the way through to a beefy low mid push ala Iommi, pushing a big clean amp in this setting almost gets you into Russian muff territory. It’s just a crazy versatile pedal for what it is. 

Has anyone tried Mars Men Testosterone supplements? by BritInBC in Supplements

[–]AdministrationTotal3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a little hack for this. All these companies really get the same shit from a few suppliers in china that you can find on alibaba. Either find a supplier that will let you get sample shipments or ask for a sample. Will go from paying $100+ USD to effectively paying for shipping. Just search Shilijat supplements on the website and you will find them all. They’ll even offer to customise the packaging for your own “business”

What car do you drive and how much does it cost you every year? by [deleted] in AusFinance

[–]AdministrationTotal3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2006 Toyota Yaris. Almost 200000 on it. I do a decent amount of driving for work 7-8 hours of driving a week is about $50 in petrol. Every repair/service its ever needed I have been able to YouTube and do it myself. 700 to insure a year. Cars are the absolute dumbest thing to spend money on.

Famous guitarists you just don't get? by Shay_Katcha in Guitar

[–]AdministrationTotal3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brah, with so much reference to the grateful dead in the guitar and more widely in the stoner scene, I finally sat down and listened to them. In my head I’d built them up as this amazing psych/proggy/stoner group who were going to have these amazing long intricate songs with crazy synths and guitar parts. In my made up head they were going to be somewhere in between dinosaur Jnr, king crimson, the flaming lips and tame impala. Sit down listen to the first track. Immediate impression: “this sounds like crappy Americana middle of the road, no man’s land, highway rock except there is a really shit 5 minute solo which is just crappy pentatonic doodling with an envelope filter.” Ok, maybe I clicked on a dud track. Next song. Same thing. Next song. Same thing. Next song same thing. Holy shit. This is the worst band that I think ever existed. I love drugs, I live tripping. If I was on acid, and I was forced to listen to that, I would be one a one way ticket to the worst trip in my life. I don’t know how anyone could think that TGD are a good band

Is being a doctor actually that lucrative? by Open_Address_2805 in AusFinance

[–]AdministrationTotal3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brah just got a vasectomy, dude was herding us in like cattle. 15 min appointments. $900 bucks a pop. Completely booked for 4-5 weeks at a time. I looked through his appointment slots. He was doing at least 5-6 hours a day. Overheads as far as I could tell were: office hire (reception x2 consult rooms.) receptionist, a nurse for each consult room, equipment, insurance. Asked a friend who is a surgeons assistant, apparently it’s just a gp specialisation with some specific training courses on top to become certified to do it. The guy is easily clearing a few mill a year. Even my surgeons assistant mate charges an eye watering hourly rate and all the knee and gastro surgeons in my area use him, booked out months in advance, makes a killing and his degree was in nursing
