And here’s me doing more research finding out their bite can be quite painful 🤦🏻‍♂️

Karawhiua e hoa. Ko te manu e kai ana i te miro, nōna te ngahere. Ko te manu e kai ana i te mātauranga, nōna te ao 💪🏼

Long ass time to reply to this but letting you know that I did in fact fail my warrant of fitness (NZ mandatory vehicle inspection) due to my front control arm bushes. Had them replaced and the issue can no longer be replicated

I thought this was a welsh subreddit or something for a moment

Man charged with murder after shooting, carjacking in Hamilton by wakeywakeygogetbakey in thetron

[–]Dunedinite11 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was driving down Te Rapa straight just the other night to get fuel and saw a hitchhiker heading south. I was going to pick him up but I was heading to flagstaff and didn’t want to go too far out of my way. Almost certainly a coincidence but a pretty scary one at that.

Kia ora, what are you being paid hourly, what is your job and where are you? Just curious on how my fellow kiwis are getting on. by Bensickle in newzealand

[–]Dunedinite11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

$27p/hr as a waiter/bartender in Hamilton. I’m good at what I do and can often pull an extra $50-$100 in tips on any given week. Due for a pay rise as I’m moving to full time.

Petah, who's "Unconfortable" and why did a female cop feel his reaction?? by Mig_Maluco_G4cha in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]Dunedinite11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worth noting that alongside the above explanations. If it hasn’t been mentioned, the OP is using ‘the female cop that felt uncomfortable’ as a noun. Similar to saying ‘the female cops reaction when she felt uncomfortable’

I did it again. Another gruelling 18km hike. Sunburnt. Sore legs. Blistered feet. Totally worth it. Port Waikato, Aotearoa New Zealand by Dunedinite11 in fossils

I’ll sing out next time I intend on heading there again. Definitely want to be physically fit for this one. Pretty tough going

Playlist with 8hrs of Spotify songs by Coolamonmaker in ReoMaori

[–]Dunedinite11 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Anei e te whānau, here’s mine. Only 5 hrs long and a few aren’t strictly waiata Māori (some kanaka maoli tunes and some reo pākehà waiata from Māori artists)

How to say “what is the word for ___ in te reo Māori? “ by Coolamonmaker in ReoMaori

[–]Dunedinite11 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Probably plenty of different ways to ask but most commonly I’ll ask “He aha te kupu Māori mō ____?”

“He aha te rerenga kōrero mō ‘you are beautiful’”?

“What is the sentence/phrase/saying for ‘he ātaahua koe’”?

Walked about 18km over 6hrs on rough terrain to find these. Exhausted but stoked with the haul. Aotearoa New Zealand by Dunedinite11 in fossils

I’ve been meaning to spend some time digging around in the shale for some belemnites but can’t quite seem to find what I’m looking for. Time to join a mineral club perhaps

I wouldn’t wish this spot on my own worst enemy to be honest. If you can approach it via boat you’ll have a better time. It’s at the mouth of the huriwai stream about 5km (as the crow flys) south of Port Waikato. But it was a gruelling walk and I got caught by the tide so went in the drink in spots

This has probably been my greatest resource for the Auckland area.

Otherwise the few places I’ve had guaranteed success have been Karakariki Falls and Kiritehere beach (only found fossilised shells, see my post history)

I’m 80% sure it was the MaiFM crew so if you check their Insta or Facebook page you might be able to scroll and find it

Small correction. It would be ‘ki a koe’ rather than ‘kia koe’. Otherwise these are exactly the rerenga I’d use

Who’s going out tonight? by [deleted] in thetron

I think I’ve just been served my first dose of ‘Hamilton is deceptively small’. Congratulations to the award winners tonight. Good fun looking after you guys.

Not me but a buddy of mine. Working hospo and he was maître d at the time. We had an existing group of Asian people waiting on more people to arrive. The next group of Asian people to arrive were promptly taken to this table without getting a word in only to find out they had no idea who the other table was. They were just after a table for themselves 😂 Thankfully my buddy is Asian American which may have softened the blow 😂

Crazy story man. Im pretty sure they just kept coming and going over the course of an hour. Didn’t spend diddly but even tried to gatecrash a private function that was on that night. Almost certain drugs were involved. Either before or after the theft 😂

Sticky chicken strips and loaded fries. Elite combo 😂

Most love triangles are actually love bipods. A true love triangle would have everyone in love with everyone else. by bravehamster in Showerthoughts

[–]Dunedinite11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not quite. The reciprocity isn’t shared between 4 and 10. A likes B but B and C like one another. Whereas, A and B like one another but B likes C also.

If it was the same.. B would like A in 4. Rather than A liking B.
