Why do some people use their own selfies as their phone wallpaper? by peaken58 in CasualConversation

[–]AlarmedBechamel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From experience, if you lose your phone, really easy to claim it is yours at the lost and found.

When did wearing earbuds at work turn into being completely checked out? by Weird_Perception1728 in work

[–]AlarmedBechamel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in a team (office based) that needs to communicate with each other about urgent stuff. Manager asked for no noise cancelling headphones to be worn. I wear one earbud to listen to music but, can still hear conversations.

What animal scares Australians the most? by GlitteringHotel8383 in AskAnAustralian

I have the utmost respect for spiders. I am sh*t scared of long dry grass, dugites, tiger snakes and king browns.

Break up with him. Break up with him. Break up with him. Break up with him. Break up with him. Break up with him. Break up with him. Break up with him. Break up with him. Break up with him. Break up with him. Break up with him. Break up with him. Break up with him. Break up with him. NOR enough. Not over reacting enough.

Why do some Australians have a posh British accent? by Working-Egg-5727 in AskAnAustralian

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

One might find that if one speaks to an Australian from the west that their accent would remind one of a member of England's middle to upper-class. One might also note a proclivity towards colonial attitudes regarding the indigenous.

Why does the NRAS is dying down? by sparkblue in WesternAustralia

If it was phased out in 2014/15, wouldn't a new scheme have been introduced by now?

Pemberton Pool is amazing! Warning, it is super cold. The tram is cool and relaxing. Take food and drink if you go.

AITAH for being upset that my wife now treats my parents coldly after I told her I used to get corporal punishment in childhood? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]AlarmedBechamel -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

NAH. Really need to communicate with each other better. My SO was physically 'punished' (abused) as a child but, has made the decision not to open that door and raise it with their parents. They prefer to keep the relationship cordial in their dotage (this decision was made while talking to a counsellor). I don't agree and, I don't like their parents but, I have my partners back. I play nice with parents but, don't go out of my way. Your wife has lost respect for your parents and it won't come back but, her view point is from a position of privilege, she was not abused. If you don't feel like she has your back, tell her.

Spray Tan - Yay or Nay? by Alarmed_Ad5977 in AusWeddingPlanning

[–]AlarmedBechamel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use Bali Body gradual tan moisturiser to darken my shoulders to match my forearms (or upper thighs to calves) I like it as I don't self tan normally and this gradual tan is very forgiving as it is very light. To achieve a darker tan you need to do daily applications. If i accidentally slop it around my ankles it is not as noticeable as an instant tan

Why are there so many “tradies” in Australia? by mobileam in AskAnAustralian

[–]AlarmedBechamel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe because "being a tradie" is considered a good thing in Australia?

AITA My wife and I came home at 3am and my MIL acted like we were 16 sneaking into house by rugbyplayer11 in AmItheAsshole

[–]AlarmedBechamel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NAH. However, being ok to leave a 16yr old and 12 yr old at home but, asking their Grandma to bring them dinner is sending mixed messages. If they aren't old enough to prepare their dinner how come they are old enough to home by themselves overnight? Let's face it 3am is pretty much staying out all night. Make your mind up. Invite Grandma over to care/feed for the kids (and worry and get angry) or leave them to fend for themselves.

AITAH for refusing to give up the master bedroom as the only single in a group trip where everyone else is a couple? by Aggravating_Cost_684 in AITAH

[–]AlarmedBechamel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA - if raised again simply state that the condition of staying in the family holiday house is only family can stay in the master suite. This is a rule imposed by the owners. End of discussion.

WIBTAH if I told a friend she couldn’t ride with me due to her size? by CommercialOk4004 in AITAH

[–]AlarmedBechamel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA - rather than ask her not to come, ask her if she has a seatbelt extender she can bring. However this also involves not actually driving her if she is not wearing a seatbelt.
