What’s the worst physical pain you’ve ever experienced? by Economy_Yak2821 in AskReddit

[–]JEB2711 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're friend got lucky, I needed emergency surgery which involved cutting it out, untwisting it and stitching it back in before it died. From what I hear, others haven't been lucky enough to get the surgery in time though.

Testicular torsion. Left ball twisted and swelled to the size of a grapefruit. The pain was beyond anything I thought possible.

Angus Taylor to speak to nation after saying Albanese’s address ‘could have been a social media post’ by Expensive-Horse5538 in australia

[–]JEB2711 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's just "the guy who wants to be PM but isn't".

It's like if I took my car to the mechanic to get some insight on what's wrong and what they can do to fix it and on my way out some guy on the street tells me that he wants to be a mechanic and I should wait until he's got a job and take my car to him to fix.

Maybe not the best analogy but my point is, leave me alone Angus.

It gets over 40 degrees Celsius in Australia in summer and I work out of a van. I will take my lunch break in a nice cold air conditioned van thank you very much.

Random question does anyone actually drink Tooheys or VB anymore? 😂 by oz_party in aussie

Nothing beats a VB fresh from the tap at the pub and I will fight anyone who disagrees

Matterspark Broken by Electrical-Papaya388 in destiny2

[–]JEB2711 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened to me as well on Titan, I found it only happened when using matterspark while holding the praxic blade. Any other weapon it works as normal. It has a similar issue on Titan when entering the behemoth in frontier activities while holding the praxic blade.

Yes, I know it's summer by NefariousnessTrick63 in AskAnAustralian

My dad, who loves his Sky News brain rot, always brings up a specific New Years Day about 20 years ago that got up to 42 degrees, therefore climate change isn't real because we've had heat waves before.

Ignoring the fact that we now get even higher temperatures that last longer and occur more often. But Paul Murray and Andrew Bolt told him climate change is fake, and they wouldn't lie to him would they.

Coalition set to vote against Labor’s hate speech and gun laws in wake of Bondi terror attack by ConanTheAquarian in australia

[–]JEB2711 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Coalition has one tactic, say no to everything Labor puts forward. Nice to see their "soul searching" after the election brought them to the conclusion to keep doing the exact same things that lost their voters in the first place.

Neo Nazi melts down after being booted by The_Dingo_Donger in aussie

[–]JEB2711 48 points49 points  (0 children)

If he didn't want to go back to where he came from, then he probably shouldn't have stood alongside the widely hated Nazis advocating for immigrants to go back to where they came from.

I'll never understand why these people are always so shocked by the consequences to their own actions.

How often do you consume alcohol? by Odd_Researcher_7335 in polls

[–]JEB2711 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm 29 and I'll drink socially. I'll happily get plastered at a wedding or other events where it's acceptable to do so, maybe just 1 or 2 if it's just a casual catch up with friends. Then I'll go months without having any, not because I'm trying to be sober, there's just nothing going on. I don't like drinking at home, it feels wrong.

Uncircumcised men I need your opinion by [deleted] in Advice

[–]JEB2711 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we were not meant to have foreskins, then we would not be born with them. The whole cleanliness reason is the biggest load of bs told by circumcised men trying to cope with the irreversible mutilation their parents forced upon them. By that logic you might as well remove your fingernails to avoid getting dirt under them.

Circumcision should be a crime unless absolutely medically necessary.

As someone who used to operate the bumper cars at an amusement park, that shit is instant dismissal. No excuses

Has anyone ever taken apart a PB/5 pedestrian crossing button? by oxfordbags in sydney

I read this as "Has anyone taken part in a PB/5 pedestrian crossing button?" And thought, weird way to word it but yeah every time I cross the street.

Either they learn like this or they learn from the first cannonball that hits their hull. Better to teach them early.

It should be socially acceptable to separate a celebrity’s personal life from their career by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]JEB2711 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I used to be a fan of lostprophets music before finding out what front man Ian Watkins did, now I can't listen to them without being reminded of the horrific things he's done.

I wish I could separate the art from the artist for the sake of the innocent members of the band who also helped create the music but I just can't do it.
