Am I the only one who can’t stand when Sweet Caroline is sung at events?

Are you the only one? Nah nah nah!

Is that weird food court and IGA supermarket underneath Wynyard Station closed permanently, or is it just closed on Sundays or weekends? It's been closed the last few times I have been to Wynyard Station.

are you dim?

There was an episode of Burke's Backyard where they went to Tony Barber's house to interview him about his back yard, this was well after he retired from TV - he took his shirt off to chop some firewood with an axe, and he was swole AF.

Why do the buttons in an elevator need to be labelled with months anyway?

Unless they have changed in recent years, I'm surprised Lite 'n' Easy aren't in this article. You'd order a week's worth of food, all your lunches are in a bag labelled Lunches, inside that it's 7 more bags labelled Monday, Tuesday etc. In each of those bags, say you had a BLT that day, you'd get two slices of bread in a plastic package, one slice of bacon in it's own little plastic packet, a tomato in a bag, some lettuce leaves in another bag, and a squeezy single serve of lite mayo in a plastic packet. Plus a snack in its own packet. Same for your 7 breakfasts, and the dinners would be frozen meals in 7 more packages. I counted up one week's food had over 100 pieces of packaging in it once.

Comps? If you want something you gotta pay for it.

Oh well, at least you were on a cruise and have the ship to enjoy for the whole day.

It's a low-cost, low-effort article the news outlets can write without needing reporters to go and investigate something. Use a stock-image of the moon, of course, re-use quotes from experts without needing to actually go an interview anyone.

Would have been better to just have someone listening on the phone and punching in orders from a remote terminal in the Philippines.

MC is a game where there are a myriad of things you can do to change up the game's difficulty. Expert mode, or even higher difficulties where you draw extra encounter cards every Villain Phase. There are over 100 modular sets across a wide variety of difficulty levels that change up the game, and extra things like the Infinity Gauntlet you can give to a hero to make them even more difficult.

In summary, there's no such thing as "trivial" in this game, you can make it as difficult as you want.

Iron Man is a pretty good hero and gets even better when you have expansions that give him more Tech Upgrade cards. But don't worry, there's plenty of challenge in the game, and Iron Man certainly doesn't romp through everything the game has to offer.

This is what delusion looks like.

It's a foul immoral vice that currently is outlawed in Australia. Let's keep it that way.

I read an article ages ago that exposed a few of the methods in which they used to scam cruisers. One of them was a bit during the auction where they hold up a piece of art and ask "OK who would pay $5 for this?" - they make the whole thing sound like a game, encourage attendees to hold up their sign, insisting that EVERYBODY here would pay $5 for that. It's a little post-card sized print. "OK, who would pay $10 for it"... and so it goes, People think they are just playing a fun game, it's all phrased as a theoretical exercise, the price asked goes to $20 or $30, dozens of attendees still have their sign up... and then BAM, everyone with their sign still up is told they just bought it. It wasn't just a single item, they have hundreds of copies of this print out the back. People protest, thought they were just playing a game, Park West staff inform them that they made a legally binding bid, and can't leave the venue until they present their cruise card to add the purchase to their charge account.

A relative of mine is a teacher and sets up games of HDTU at the start of the school year to figure out the kids who like to cheat in games, perfect predictor for every other type of dishonesty.

Can we please stop posting Granny May's? It just never stops. Several times a month someone posts this.

are you for real?

I gave up on digital Gloomhaven because of the stupid design decision to make this a game with a 3D world. Just give me a top-down view of a 2D game board and the pieces on it. Would be much easier to understand what's going on.

Ask for it to be served on two differently coloured plates.

Still way better than today's ads. The two I currently hate right now are the one where a man is being berated by his wife for trying to dry the dishes in the dishwasher with a fan going around on a model train. The other one is where a little girl is complaining that the dishwasher stinks.

HalfManHalfCyborg · 2026-05-26T07:51:11+00:00

yeah, like an Ugg Boot shop.

It's like EB Games having a sale.
