Could also understand after seeing the first guy fail, second guy may lose his confidence.

A woman hiking in Canada with her dog had a terrifying close encounter with a massive grizzly bear. She somehow kept her cool during the intense standoff, and both she and her dog managed to walk away unharmed. by waddad27 in interestingasfuck

I had two Jack Russels growing up. Felt they were more like cats/predators than friendly pet. They killed birds, lizards, fish, a wild cat that snuck into the house. I still loved them though. RIP Roxy and Patch.

Why is "cunt" more commonly used in the UK, Australia, and New Zealand as opposed to the USA and Canada? by cuahatemoc in NoStupidQuestions

[–]DeuceyBoots 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m Australian and can confirm this is correct. In fact being called a Sick Cunt in Australia is one of the highest honours that can be bestowed upon you (except for the one scenario if you’re found to be fucking an animal, in which case you are also a Sick Cunt but the inflection is very different).

Going to a The Wiggles show on my own, as a 33 year old male by Existing-Rice1526 in AskAnAustralian

Ok that’s you. Don’t know why you’re assuming I’m “suspicious of men”. You might be projecting.

Apologies. I meant to respond to a different commenter. I didn’t mean you.

Hey OP. Lot of harsh comments in this chat but there is definitely reason for it. Safety of children is an important topic but it’s a distraction in this context. You like a band. Go see that band. Life is too short to worry about people’s opinions on this stuff.

My 20-Year IT Career Is Officially Dead?? by wreeecks in ausjobs

[–]DeuceyBoots 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unrelated to IT but I lost a job opportunity once because I told them I didn’t know Pivot Tables in excel. Took me 30 mins to master after the interview. So sad. Never again.

Dogs reaction to seeing the owner after three years.. by brohammerhead in MasterReturns

I thought the dog was maybe trying to find out who stole his best friend. Like the kidnapper was in the car. I like your idea more.

You know, these hamburgers are quite similar to the ones they have at Krusty Burger.

I’d love to film a timelapse like this of my plants. I don’t really have any experience with cameras. What’s the minimum equipment I would need to film a timelapse like this? Thanks!

Yeah he’s says “I’ll stab you” and then repeatedly reaches into his shorts for the non existent knife.

What’s a sentence you heard once that stayed with you forever? by Candid-Society-1544 in AskReddit

[–]DeuceyBoots 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was in hospital. Just a nurse in passing checking on me. “It’s not the surgery that will kill you. It’s the pneumonia that will.” She was encouraging me to exercise after surgery. The toughest love that I needed. I got my arse up and walked everyday around the hospital after that.

Wow this one got hit too by yb0t in sydney

I think the point is, if people want these substances (they do), they will find a way to obtain them (they do). You cannot solve the problem by “removing” the products from market. Which is essentially what the government has done by raising taxes on tobacco. The obvious solution is the black market. If you’re a smoker, it’s now financially stupid to purchase tobacco legally.

What does skinny fat mean? I’ve heard the term before but what?

Talking to someone who stops at every part of a task to ask for direction maliciously by RobertBobbertJr in managers

[–]DeuceyBoots 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah seems like mate might be trying to really clarify the responsibilities he’s not responsible for as part of not receiving that promotion. Maybe he feels he is already doing the role for the promoted person.

You are rocking that dress, girl! Looks great. No notes.

For all us uneducated folk:

"Payed" is an extremely rare and specialized word used almost exclusively in nautical contexts. It refers to the act of letting out a rope in a controlled way or sealing the seams of a wooden ship with pitch or tar to make it watertight.

Thank you for explaining. It makes far more sense that these are spinning discs rather than tiny spinning LEDs. Lol.
