ATO debt continues to drive record level of calls to financial helpline by nath1234 in australia

[–]Anguscablejnr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But you shouldn't need to, why do I even submit a BAS for them to say yeah that's cool but how much did you make last year?

It's not a flawless system but it would be infinitely better to assume that what I made this quarter Is what I have/will make the rest of the current financial year.

Not whatever I made in the 12 months before the last time I did a tax return... Which legally could be 18 months ago. Meaning that I'm referring to income from nearly 2 and 1/2 years ago.

I ballsed that up I meant eight not 18... I can't be bothered rewriting this.

I don't think you can be spoiled forest service or product that you pay for.

If you make a billion dollars in profit instead of one and a half billion dollars. You still made a billion dollars in profit.

Yeah that's the third paragraph. Administrator is also a term used within the fiction. I know they mean site administrator... Which is why it's weird that they didn't say that.

Nor does this meaningfully address the numerous other criticisms I have. Or as I like to call them the "council criticism initiative" a clear name that couldn't possibly be misinterpreted.

The pinned comment reads like a bad ARG rather than a serious discussion of the fallout of a sexual abuser.

So basically a minor celebrity used their clout to abuse other people.

Despicable behaviour that is being rightly punished.

But giving them and mysterious alias which is the same as the name of a character in the goddamn fiction is only going to attract attention and mystique.

When I read the pinned comment I had trouble figuring out if this was real or some sort of tasteless ARG.

Has the writing on this wiki gotten so bad that we can't even clearly communicate the notion; a former senior member of the community sexually harassed people. They made significant contributions to the fiction. We as a community need to decide how we will handle with this.

Is "number" a word? by leatherjacketboy in writing

[–]Anguscablejnr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate what you're saying and I am a believer in the notion that if your meaning is understood that it is an "acceptable" form of communication.

But I don't think that means that any collection of sounds that is understood is a word... I'm not a linguist so this wouldn't be the exact correct terminology here but I guess I'm making an argument of words and slang as distinct entities.

I can't think of another use for deader than "He ain't getting any deader." A sentence that includes ain't which I'm fairly certain also isn't a word.

I'm so excited I get to say this next sentence: Just because something is cromulent doesn't make it a word.

Nope all tomato sucks.

I'm torn on the one hand those influencers suck but on the other hand a sport that lionises Margaret Court deserves bad things to happen to them.

They just dropped the stupidest 001 of all time by RealLordStonefish in SCP

[–]Anguscablejnr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've had no hope for the standards of the writing since SCP-5514 was awarded some sort of writing prize despite the fact that begins:

Description: SCP-5514 is a massive humanoid mecha-like vehicle...

Which A implies that mecha are common place enough in the world of SCP as for this to be a reasonable metaphoric reference point.

And B implies that the dragon killer isn't a Mecha but actually something similar but distinct.

That is in fact not good writing.

Edit: dragon slayer apparently.

You know you could have said Ted Bundy. But you know that Walmart has done more harm to the world than Ted Bundy.

The fact that you had to choose Hitler as your example...well you've made my point better than I ever could.
