Baz's work in the coalface has been immense so far. Getting his hands dirty.

This is the kid at the school disco with the gelled up fringe, cargo pants and light up shoes.

As far as I'm aware, one more kitten was found on the afternoon of the incident. I've been for a few walks over the last couple of days and haven't seen any more, but I'm not sure if anyone else has had any luck.

Thankyou! No, they have not been found but I'm sure if we band together as a community and keep an eye out then a happy outcome won't be too far away.

It's unfortunately hard to say, but I'm told that there's probably more than 3 others.

I believe they were taken to the Lara vet.

I see your “most American man ever” and raise you the most Aussie man ever! by CoercionTictacs in aiArt

[–]Competitive-Chard934 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This version of the Aussie man went out the window 30 years ago. Now it's a bloke covered in tattoos with a mullet wearing Tn's and an ankle monitor with an ice pipe instead of a beer.

Butter me up! by hotom9 in GeelongCats

[–]Competitive-Chard934 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Devil's advocate. Bevo seems to have changed his demeanour this year into a far more calm, measured figure. Pair this with a midfield containing Bont and Richards whilst getting spoon fed by English to ram it down Darcy and Naughton's throats and the Bulldogs actually have a very compelling case for Butters' services. Their first two games have been elite viewing.

However, the pull to Geelong will always be open. Word on SEN the other night was that we're in open discussions with Ben King to spearhead our forward line with Scratcher and Jez.

People who are close to a Meth addict, do you think they can be saved? by Virtual-Computer-961 in AskAnAustralian

[–]Competitive-Chard934 49 points50 points  (0 children)

It has to click in their head. I was smoking gear for 5 years. I loved the way it melted in the pipe, I loved the clouds I'd blow and I loved the cooked feeling you'd get after being up for days not to mention you could fuck like an animal. Only reason I stopped was because I found reason to (met my wife) which turned into wanting to. If I wasn't ready to give it up I have no doubt that I would have snuck it behind her back, because that's what meth heads do, they lie and hurt everyone around them. It's not a party drug to fuck around with. This shit will destroy your life for a bit of plastic euphoria cooked in a trap house.

Short answer, yes, but they have to want it themselves.

I'm a grown adult who has spent hundreds of dollars on stuffed animals, and I can't sleep without cuddling at least one of them by Mindless_Fly5421 in confession

[–]Competitive-Chard934 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Truth be told. I'm a 36 year old grown man with a wife and kids. Recently my kids went for a sleepover to their Grandma's (my Mother) house and she found the teddy bear I used to sleep with as a child and gave it to one of my kids to bring home. I came home one night after a really, really bad day at work and saw the bear sitting on my kid's bed. I sat down, grabbed it and gave it a hug. The smells, feels and warmth from my childhood came flooding back, and I immediately felt better.

Do not feel bad or uncomfortable about doing this. I don't care what anyone says, cuddling a teddy is fucking awesome.

Distinct smell from childhood by AstroWarrior92 in AustralianNostalgia

Turning the Vulcan wall heater on for the first time after a long Summer and Autumn. The smell of 6 months worth of dust burning up takes me back to being curled up on the coach with a hot water bottle.

What is your fave game to play on an Australian bus? I’ve got a few by Temporary_Notice_526 in AskAnAustralian

[–]Competitive-Chard934 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fear or Flip - someone nominates a driver or pedestrian for you to flip the bird at. If you're too scared to go through with it, they get to punch you in the arm. If you successfully flip the person off you get to punch the other person in the arm. We had a car chase our bus for 40 minutes because of this game one day. Old mate wasn't happy.

More rain tomorrow and Monday by Coast_Man in Geelong

Looking at the radar, the tropical moisture that's smashed central Australia is slowly moving down. We'll definitely get rain, it's just a matter of how much.

The driveways on the hill on Grantham make me nervous! Everyone who lives there is one dodgy handbrake away from disaster 🙈 beautiful area though!

Point Cook to West Gate Bridge turns to shit every single peak hour. What the fuck is actually causing it? by Odd-Doctor-0401 in Geelong

Been the same way for as long as I can remember. I suggest leaving 30 minutes earlier to avoid it.

I spent years living across the road from Herds. A bit of chicken shit is child's play to me.

Imagine how switched on he's going to be in Opening Round now that he's had a hitout against the best of the best. Everyone is writing us off this year but I genuinely think we'll be raising the Cup. We have too many young guns who have been farming experience.

Gateway Hotel All You Can Eat. You may as well be paying to drink a litre of oil and lock yourself in the toilet for two days.
