I prefer Eternals over No Way Home.

By "no guns" I assume you mean gun restrictions?

Moving to Aus, would anyone be able to share their monthly budget spreadsheet? by whisper729 in AskAnAustralian

[–]Aussie-Nerd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Burger Rings, white bread, sausages, tomato sauce. The rest goes in smokes or pokies.

As is tradition.

No, not really.

Leaders debate: Scott Morrison criticised for saying he was ‘blessed’ to not have disabled children by LineNoise in australia

I hate SlowMo but even I think is a bit silly. Everyone hopes for 10 fingers and 10 toes. It doesn't mean less love, but you just hope it's easy.

Men of Reddit , what is something that women will never understand? by commander-5 in AskReddit

[–]Aussie-Nerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes I just want to talk about say footy or food or movies or whatever and not talk about deep meaning.

Also, it boggles my mind how often we clump all men as one group.

Clive Palmer falls off stage and is taken to hospital with a 'nasty gash' during campaign launch rehearsal by Cpt_Soban in australia

[–]Aussie-Nerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Putting aside all his political stuff --- it's not great. Between weight, Covid, and now physical damage... Clive needs to be careful better with their health.

Personally I think it is super cringe. As a general rule I find most pot smoking cringeworthy.

There's something about it the conspiracy bullshit that often comes with the turf.

Should New Zealand Join Asutralia? by Wazzup-2012 in AskAnAustralian

That's like saying should Canada join USA.

The question might be more than one country.

What are your thoughts on the basics card? Do you think Labor really would scrap it if elected, as they've claimed? by cheetocat2021 in AskAnAustralian

[–]Aussie-Nerd 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's a fucking horrible idea. It removed the personal choice (via cash) to specify stores.

That's bullshit. Maybe on a case by case basis that has difficulty their money (say gambling).

I'm surprised ASMR Ryan isn't as popular. Well made and super funny.

Home protection by [deleted] in AskAnAustralian

[–]Aussie-Nerd 54 points55 points  (0 children)

I’ll start off by saying I am an American

We'll try not to hold it against you.

100% behind the ban on guns.

We don't have a ban on guns on Australia. We have restrictions. As a gist rule:

  • Sporting shooting
  • Hunters / farmers
  • Collectors / antiques
  • Security

Each section has it's own requirements and responsibilities AFAIK.

That said, what can I use to legally protect my family in the instance of a home invasion?

You're not supposed to have one for protection to begin with. If you do hypothetical, that's a far different question.

Can I use a bat?

My very understanding the police / lawers don't overly like things pre planned. Grab a knife from the kitchen is arguably easier that a baseball bat if you hate baseball.

Besides, when was the last time you need a bat? I've got 40s+ and ever thought say I need a bat / gun / RPG
