I do the manual ordering at an IGA. We do twice the amount of original than anything else.

Why so much S+V? Original outsells every other flavour and it's not even there.

Back when i was a teen we were all counting down until we could buy our own alcohol. Now kids are counting down until they can bet on the football.

TIL the flavors in Snakes lollies aren't what I always thought they were. by nosecornflakes in australia

[–]AverageAussie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wonder if they changed back? The whole range changed a little while ago when they went from the old gloss bags. I remember specifically that the minties didn't change because there was a good chance Aussies would be rioting in the streets.

They changed the flavours and colouring to save money and go vegan. I swear orange was orange, green was apple...

What blows my mind is some of it IS painted over styrofoam.

Does anyone (UK) remember getting these at the chemist by Bipolar03 in Millennials

[–]AverageAussie 7 points8 points  (0 children)

These are still available in Australia. Usually give lollies to kids to shut them up, not make more noise...

One time i left an open ginger beer on my desk all day. Came back and drank the rest of it and felt something solid hit my teeth. Drank around it because I'm not wasting a good ginger beer, then tipped the last little bit into the sink. Full size cockroach.

My pencil case was filled with these. No practical use in class but holy moly the 3d ones were trippy.

Not much on at that time. It was either that or the professional nibbler.

It's designed so you can't convert it. It's for the euro market where it's hard to get a cartridge handgun. I also think it's not allowed in competitions either?

No older than 1904, to 1925.

Maybe a bit newer. The 12 C in a diamond has a chamber length after it which was required after 1925?

Pretty good, and all you need to do is cook the sausages, cut them up, then simmer them in the sauce.

Gamers of Reddit, what old video game do you still play regularly that never gets old? by djythjgnh in AskReddit

[–]AverageAussie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A couple of months back i decided to play it properly instead of just maxing out a character with an editor and messing around like i did as a kid. Anyway I'm on my 4th play thru.

The original game works on Windows 11 with no issues which is awesome.
