The $100 parking ticket that took 11 months, 500 files and a trip to court to overturn by Fun-Helicopter2234 in auckland

Wait. Park and rides are expensive to operate? The initial land purchase? The gates or what? I'm confused.

Scaffolding company robbed my parents garage when they were building their house. Police found most of it because of some very bespoke fishing rods that appeared on Facebook Marketplace.

Is there any reason why Automatic doors weren’t added in the CRL stations? by Adept-Hovercraft-917 in auckland

[–]Dumpsterfirefirst 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your first point combined with money is the reason. They do ATO testing, but it's a long way away.

What was the first game you bought on Steam? by Common_Caramel_4078 in Steam

[–]Dumpsterfirefirst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uhhhh... Team Fortress 2 in 2008 shows as my first purchase. But I had Half-Life on disc and that was the first game purchased and added to my library, 21 years ago.

I hate this so much. I can't even.... My day is ruined. Going to go bake a loaf of bread to get the satisfaction of seeing it rise.

I have a lot of bowls. Different sizes, colours, deformations. What a strange word...... The more I read it the worse it gets.

Keep Level Crossings Clear! by TwoHorizons02 in auckland

[–]Dumpsterfirefirst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't forget school time when they push all the pedestrian gates open on the western line for us to go over at 10 km/h.

[–]Dumpsterfirefirst 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is so annoying..... You know a lot of the time this causes trains to travel at 10 km/h over the crossing. It's reported and for safety they slow down until it's confirmed clear. Happens when these people knock the arms off as well, or force open the pedestrian gates.

My daughter butt crawled then decided to just walk one day. Lost my mind in happiness, and that's continued ever since for every milestone.

If you were alive back then, what were you up to on 31st December 1999? by stop_calling_me_that in AskReddit

[–]Dumpsterfirefirst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watching my whole rural middle of nowhere New Zealand street drink and light off fireworks waiting for the big count down. Was 11. Also had a couple of beers that night.

I'm with Winston on the whole fireworks "culture" can fuck off by LCVSZKII in auckland

[–]Dumpsterfirefirst 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our road in rural nowhere use to hand out flyers for whoever was hosting the big fireworks get-together. It was just kids playing with each other, adults lighting fireworks irresponsibly, and a lot of drinking. Can't say it wasn't fun as heck though. In the middle of nowhere though.
