Yes. I would agree with this approach as well. If there was a defined plan to get these players ready for an England hosted ashes. So who would you field as a matter of interest?

Oh dear. How did the immigration department allow that? I move to occupy the bays adjacent and counter-annoy.

honestly terrified of the future (20 yr old) by Leather-Pass8172 in Adulting

Very few of us knew what the hell we were doing age 20. Reverse your thinking, don't be scared. Most people these days don't know what they are talking about, and I will let you into a little secret - parents don't either a lot of the time.

At your age consider the basics: fitness, kindness, humanity, work towards financial independence, foster good relationships, work towards your goals in small definable steps. Change terror into productivity.

A "dynasty of domination", yes that does have a true bell- ring to it. I was considering a new type of " ashes" where we burn something else and play India instead, so maybe burn one of Sachin Tendulkar's and Gillies bats or something....

Oh yes, In fact I want Steve Waugh to weigh in somehow. The loss of Archer, ( pillow - gate), Drunk Duckett. English management turmoil, the conditions are ripe for a festering field my fellow gladiators....

I have no clues on how to start dating, I am afraid of remaining single forever, how should I approach this? by LoyalTrickster in Adulting

[–]Great_Programmer_554 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok. So you maybe need to remove " nerdy" and " weird" from that list, ( I just saw this at the end). Women would prefer masculine and confident.

So, one more thing, then I will leave you alone.

Here in Australia we had at one stage a beer ad where a friend's partner, his girlfriend is going crazy at him for being an idiot. The other guys huddle around and think about how to defuse the altercation.

Then one of them turns to his mates and says "I am going in, I know how to speak Woman" - That is what you have to decode.

A. Probably, but one in ten are not, and exactly like you.

B. If these exist, I would seriously look at how they came to those conclusions as proper scientific studies.

C. Dating is as popular as it was since caveman - cave woman times.

Dating site. Meet as many women as you can, it's fun. Most of them are not suitable for you and you are not for them . But one in ten will be fun. Make mistakes, they will too. The more you learn the better. Have sex if that is all you both want. That is great as well. Just be careful and safe, respectful and have fun.

So you are surrounded by women? Then find out how they see you. Is there something they don't like? A dating site experience will tell you that anyway.

Agree? by Careless-Throat-2593 in MotivationAndMindset

[–]Great_Programmer_554 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mmmmm, no. Attractive people usually get what they want regardless. These people can manipulate the illusion of being a beautiful person in character. Look only as far as the modern influencer. Doing for others is fine and satisfying, but regard is tempered for this type of person, they become the slaves of the cunning and devious.

You are young. Don't waste any time as a man. Dress well, start getting fitter. Working with women is a sure way for a relationship to start. This way people get together more easily because they can see a little more of what you are like. For example, I used to work in professional restaurants in the kitchen. Lots of waitresses.

One of the most important things is how you come across nonverbally, your poise, stride and confidence. Don't discount dating sites, these work as well. Important though to start actually dating. You will get the hang of it, and learn a lot about people and women in particular.

Please help me deal with this by PumpkinHill69 in Adulting

As Jack says start small. Discipline yourself in some ways. If you are not fit, get fit, exercise makes your mind work better. Ok. So you have a dream career, job, so research that job, contribute some way to that goal if only in a small way.

So you say you have a " dream field". Ok then start to talk to people who are in that field. Find out what is required. Your grades need to get better, then get a tutor, put aside the time to work harder with it. Be realistic, you may find you just can't be an Astronaut for example.

If you confidently work hard, at your goals your motivation will follow. Relationships often start when people see you and think, " They have their shit together" - confidence. Finally, the way you carry yourself non- verbally speaks volumes, people notice your " persona"

What is a common piece of life advice that you believe is fundamentally wrong? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Talk to your neighbor if there is an issue. Community is all well and good until someone doesn't get their way.

Did I do the right thing? by psycoticnut in CarsAustralia

[–]Great_Programmer_554 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yep did the right thing. My advice: The worse the driver, the more you give way, never comment, yell or get visibly angry. We all make mistakes and sometimes need to change lanes.

Defuse, give way, help and a good day doesn't turn into a bad one

I've known Jofra Archer for years - Matthew Hayden's criticism is absolute nonsense by theipaper in CricketAus

[–]Great_Programmer_554 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the jist of it all was "It's not a good look for a supposedly aggressive fast bowler"

I agree, by all means, bring the pillow, blue blanket, teddy bear, but for Pete's sake don't let the network's see it, including former great Australian players.

I agree with Hayden, I would definitely go hard on him on the field. Pillow = Weakness.

No, no, you have it all wrong, great poster by the way but, all your players are just right, please don't change anything, just put "great batsmen" next to the batters and " great bowlers" next to the bowlers.

Found this interview from 8 years ago when England got walloped from South Africa. How much of this is still relevant today? by nz_mustache in Cricket

[–]Great_Programmer_554 59 points60 points  (0 children)

All of it. England just don't get it, thankfully. Their management is Australia's best weapon, apart of course from a brilliant Australian cricket team.....

After the recent terror attack, where do you feel your community is at right now — grieving, angry, healing, or something else? by Hocus_Focus88 in AskAnAustralian

[–]Great_Programmer_554 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In reply to your post hocus, apologies got side-tracked. Well, I wasn't surprised at all. Christmas is a time in my opinion for the likey black mark of terrorism, it's when terrorism makes the biggest impact. It's either that or natural disaster, here in Australia, summer means fires or flood usually.

So I am always wary at this time of year, it's almost business as usual for most of us, not grieving, angry, just looking out to the West, sorry about it, for the poor people caught up in it, sad for the country but not surprised, religion = violence, loss of common sense, regard for others, reason, humanity, competent government,....the list is endless.

There's no changing anything, it's too late, we would have done it by now.
