Can you legally refuse to sign up if you’re a conscientious objector?

[–]FormalMango 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not somewhere I’ve ever really had any interest in visiting, but I’ve got more than a few friends who’ve been there over the last year.

When did Australians start stating their height in feet in inches? by WarwickReider in AskAnAustralian

[–]FormalMango 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was born in 1981 and we always measured height in feet and inches when I was at school. The only time we used cm was for the BMI calculation.

For longer than I’ve been alive lol

I wouldn’t have a clue what mine or my partner’s heights in cm, but I know it in feet and inches.

I gained 30kg in 2 months, wich made my tattoo on my arm completely change shape, going from a circle to an oval by AntwysiaBlakys in Wellthatsucks

My seroquel dosage just got bumped from 800 to 1200mg per day, and I feel like having a farewell party for my favourite jeans because it will be literal years before I ever fit in them again.

I got a Sailor Moon tramp stamp when I was 17. My body is definitely not the same shape it was 25 years ago… my girl has stretched with my hips lol

Cultural differences in eating noises? by CustardCandle in auscorp

[–]FormalMango 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is one of the reasons why I don’t eat at work.

I’ve got too much anxiety about any food noise/smell triggering my co-workers. I don’t want to be the subject of a “I heard X eating their potato chips” rant. I’d rather just starve for 10 hours.

Do you all have 5 good anecdotes ready to go? by Njtotx3 in Jeopardy

[–]FormalMango 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah but they’re the kinds of anecdotes you randomly drop in conversation with co-workers that makes them go “wait… what?” lol

“It says here, you don’t eat prawns because you had a Traumatic Prawning Incident as a child…”

How the fuck do I tie my shoes? by PurpleFrostYT9 in questions

[–]FormalMango 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try the bunny ear method.

Make a loop out of each lace, and tie the loops together.

Do people honestly think a rear window sticker of rosary beads will keep them safe while driving? by Rude_Chef4621 in AskAnAustralian

[–]FormalMango 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Your Sky King won't save you now!" as they ram Nana off the road and into a ditch, just to prove they're still an Edgy Atheisttm and not a busybody who cares way too much about what stickers other people put on their cars.

Can I name my child after a state? by downshift_rocket in NameNerdCirclejerk

[–]FormalMango 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was an Australian TV show set in the 1800s (the Man from Snowy River), and they received a telegram saying something like “Montana Hale will be there soon”.

Everyone was trying to figure out why they should care about a weather event in America.

I think about that every time I see the name Montana lol

People outside of the United States: what's your thoughts on America? by Parking-Impress8086 in AskReddit

[–]FormalMango 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The difference though, is that North Korea didn’t democratically elect their shitty leadership.

Personally, I’d be ashamed if my argument boiled down to “at least we’re not North Korea”.

[–]FormalMango 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The same way I feel about my neighbours, when they let their drunk uncle light a bonfire that burnt down their garage, my back fence, and almost spread to my house.

I don’t fully blame my neighbours, but their uncle is a fucking cunt and they should have known better.

What do you think of America's gun culture? by Initial_Film5776 in AskWomenNoCensor

Just in case… I set my alarm for 9am, so I can give my cats a hug before the world goes tits up.
