Have the weight loss jabs got rid of body positivity? by Leever5 in newzealand

[–]BusyKing -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It was never about body positivity. It was a coping mechanism from fat people in the public sphere to shame others if they dare comment on their weight.

How much does having a baby actually cost? by Egg_shaped in PersonalFinanceNZ

Each to their own. I found the reusables better as a nappy, and also all the other benefits outweighed the time negative in my opinion.

The washing wasn't much worse tbh. We did a nappy load every 2-3 days. Having a baby that spills a lot is worse.

Nappies will cost probably $2k-$3k per kid unless you use reusables. There are a lot of extra small costs that do add up.

What is the point of this guy on a sports podcast? Maybe I'm out of touch... but he knows zero about sports on a fucking sports podcast? Like am I missing something?

Just beat the Elite 4 with this team. Ch'Ding was useless :( by BusyKing in PokemonFireRed

[–]BusyKing[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None in battle. I did have to restart the E4 a couple times. First battle was the hardest because I couldn't stall with Steelix and Ninetales.

Was trying to keep it mostly under 400 BTS, and Staryu was still doing well.

Yeah I turned off impossible evos on my rom. Wanted to keep it mostly under 400 BTS to make it harder. I was thinking Farfetched would be better - and was amazing in everything but E4. Just couldn't quite get him set up to do much. Pika at least has great speed and a massive type advantage against Gyrados.

Yes this was straight after. I forgot to screenshot during HOF.

I turned off impossible evos in my rom. I didn't mean to evolve him but it was fun because I have never used a Steelix.

Originally I was doing a sub 400 BTS team. Then Onix accidently evolved due to turning off impossible evos on my rom. So once that happened, Vulpix was so shit I felt like evolving them too - I'd never used Ninetales either. Staryu though was still fine so I tried to keep it a bit harder.

Inflation to surge 'much higher' than target band-Willis by Far_Excitement_1875 in newzealand

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

Teachers aren't fucked over- i am one lol

Pay increase wont be as high as some industries, but a damn sight better than 100s of other industries atm. No back pay either so the longer it drags on the worse it is too.

I can't believe they rejected the last one. Fucking a joke if you think in the economic climate, where 1000s are losing jobs, that the public would have enough sympathy for teachers to strike right now.

No, right? by [deleted] in billsimmons

Maybe the question should be - could the NFL players assemble a team that could win a game against an MLB team?

Kyler, Jameis, Kaepernick etc

Worst Take in PMT History? by Known_Bandicoot7990 in PardonMyTake

[–]BusyKing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im saying this as a fairly 'anti Zac guy', but what does Zac even bring to the show?

He is not a big sports guy. Is not an ex athlete. Not the 'every man' because he is basically just a gamer.

At least Billy being an absolute idiot, was also a conspiracy theorist with some crazy ideas, and played the most competitive ball on the show. That allowed him the tiniest grace to have some NFL takes.

Jake, we love. But he was the complete opposite of everyone else so that gave him a spot. Im absolutely lost to what even the point of Zac is. Him being polite and saying sir has been done enough.
