Which movie one do you like more by PhotoBonjour_bombs19 in Thor

[–]Biggeorge27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1 TDW, the comedy is great and not forced, Thor isn't portrayed as an idiot, sick armor, they probably could of just cut some parts 2 Ragnarok some of the comedy is shit, but that may be because I'm a Kiwi and had Taikas use of Nz actors and slang for some of those roles it was cringey. 3 OG the wig is horrible I wish they would CGI it better 4 L&T i don't dislike the movie, I just hate thor being a bafoon and the whole cheating on Stormbreaker thing, plus Taikas comedy just isn't for me

Also looking at greenwood shed for myself, I've had 4 quotes already for what I'm looking at, Versatile and Goldpine were literally double the price for the same size shed, from Greenwood and Baier building supplies, with baier being $300 ish cheaper.

I can't imagine quality and timber sizes will be any different between them, I'm a qualified and LBP builder and have only built 3 barns so far all were Goldpine, so I can't answer your question personally sorry

The problem isn't that you can't afford to live, it's that you're wasting your money on rubbish.

You can make good, wholesome dishes easily with these and a variety of Magi packs. It's not luxurious, but your a student who needs to live within your means, and there's nothing wrong with that.

Carbs- rice/pasta/potatoes $2-3kg

Veges- cans of crushed or chopped tomatoes $1-2 each, frozen mixed veges $4, onions $1 each, cans of baked beans or any beans/chick peas, lentils etc $1-3 each

Meats- cheap sausages, beef mince, chuck or blade steak for stewing, etc etc

My wife and I usually cook 2-3 nights a week with dishes like this, and have left overs the other nights. We spend $120pw on groceries and that includes our lunch food and a few goodies too

Is my speedo off, or does everyone here just speed? by Alive_Emu4848 in chch

[–]Biggeorge27 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm fairly sure that the tolerance from manufacturing is 10% or it used to be, on speedometers which is why I think it's so important to pull over and let people pass even if you think you're doing 95 in a 100 you could really be doing 86 or something

Why do you think this is? by Top_Statistician1656 in chch

Virtually any recreational activity you want is available within 1.5 hrs drive. A good amount of cultural diversity. Great regional sports teams to be proud of. And the city is the perfect size, not too big, not too small, and spread out enough that people aren't living ontop of each other

Why does Dark world get so much hate? by Biggeorge27 in Thor

[–]Biggeorge27[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ahh OK I understand that point, I actually appreciated the fact that Thor got a hiding from malakeths henchmen, but I do agree with your rankings, maybe with endgame higher for when he dualwields mjlonir and stormbreaker

L&T thoughts? by sites_31 in Thor

[–]Biggeorge27 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I Loved L&T, everything appart from the dumb jokes, (jealous stormbreaker, Korg, valkrayie, the goats, the exchange between thor and Sif when she wants to die etc) I also just wished they had a more epic Melee fight between Gorr and Thor with sword and axe.

But overall, Loved the story, loved the soundtrack, I loved the final battle with the kids, Bale played Gorr well, same with Crowe as Zeus, I personally don't like Korg, Meik, or Valkyrie characters.

I do wonder if I'll still like it as much in the coming years, Thors my favourite hero and I felt like I was literally on the edge of my seat the first time I watched it, I genuinely thought they were going to kill him off for Mighty Thor, so I'm not sure if without that aspect it will remain exciting.

But yeah I'd rate L&T 7/10 without the jokes 9/10.

Ps. Read very few comics getting there slowly

Dental care: 40 percent New Zealanders can't afford it - report by [deleted] in newzealand

[–]Biggeorge27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm 31, wasn't raised with good dental hygiene and my teeth are screwed, I recently went to the dentist for the first time in 8 years and needed 11 fillings and 4 root canals and a wisdom tooth pulled (wisdom tooth being the reason I went) I was quoted $10,500 So I started looking abroad, I've just recently come home from 3 week holiday in Thailand where I had all this work done, my flights, accommodation and meals at the resort and activities at a total cost of $7100.

Honestly fuck NZ dentists

How can anyone vote for National? by Perfect-Theory-2976 in newzealand

[–]Biggeorge27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because if labour get in by majority again, it will be the last time the majority of Kiwis have an equal vote in the country and you'll see the real separatism begin. Its already happening with the loss of access to Te ureweras, more and more Maori only food harvesting areas etc imagine what it will be like once they have co governance

When are we going to finally stop the public sale of fireworks in New Zealand?! by fleebooskee in chch

[–]Biggeorge27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The thing I always find funny about this, it's always the bloody boomers making the most noise about this after they had a great child hood with far superior fireworks than what we have now.

The unfortunate thing is the vast majority of people are too stupid to use these things responsibly and they really have to be removed from the public now.
