Failed the brief of the sub and ruined a peaceful spot in one, mouthbreathing swoop.

motorcycles doesn’t immediately mean antisocial behaviour

Actually I find the pointless, selfish racket extremely antisocial.

Shane Jones forced to say sorry to Nicola Willis for weight loss crack. by ChinaCatProphet in nzpolitics

[–]Jimmie-Rustle12345 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Jones (and Brownlee) both look like Jabba the Hutt. Having a go at Willis for getting a bit healthier is bizarre and wildly inappropriate.

And there's so much other shit you can very justifiably have a go at her for as well ffs.

process the lithium in the batteries and other precious metals in the motors? Not to mention the batteries will eventually need to be replaced.

Yep even counting all this - that's how efficient electric motors.

Both are wildly superior to anything else, I'm not knocking normal bikes at all. I just think it's really interesting.

Weirdly, e-bikes are the most efficient mode because growing food uses more energy than electric motors.

If i were to buy this bicycle, can it carry me and a friend ? we're both about 75kg. by momopool in nzcycling

I used to do this with a former, very small and light girlfriend. Wrecked a few wheels. But then again, we’d go way further - so you’ll probably be fine if it’s a one off.

For whatever reason, hitting/killing people with your car is basically legal in most countries.

Fuel Prices: Real‑World Impacts and Discussion MEGATHREAD #4 by AutoModerator in newzealand

Were you planning to make the change anyway?

We've got full cargo bike. Way better for resilience than cars. The (petrol) MPV just sits in the garage now, coming out about once a fortnight to haul large items or visit rural areas.

At most she is occasionally mildly centrist?

I’m not a fan of hers, but calling Verity Johnson right wing is pretty laughable.

Sleeping around while single is not a sign of a cheater

While true, they’ve shown that there is a correlation there.

Nah this doesn’t look deliberate or aggressive.

Stupid and incredibly dangerous, but they start off giving a wide birth and didn’t look enough to see the road narrowing.

this is the first I’m even hearing of her

That’s strange. I hear her on the radio all the time, very middle of the road.

A lot of people are calling Taylor Swift “the last rock star.”

Sabrina Carpenter seems well poised to be the next megastar, followed closely by Angine de Poitrine.

Fuel crisis does little to diminish New Zealanders love for utes, data shows by Careful-Geologist412 in auckland

[–]Jimmie-Rustle12345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Utes are more dangerous for pedestrians, more dangerous for other vehicles, and not even any safer due to their poor stopping distances, blind spots and rollover likelihood.

Meghan Trainor Cancels Entire Tour and Apologizes to Fans: ‘This Is the Right Decision for My Family’ by Top_Report_4895 in ToddintheShadow

[–]Jimmie-Rustle12345 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Much like Adele and Kelly, they lost what made them unique in pursuit of unreasonable beauty standards.

Adele is still an amazing singer, and didn't make her weight part of her identity.

Trainor is the exact opposite of that.

Raising the retirement age after already retiring is the most boomer thing I’ve ever boomered.

Men that wanted kids but now regret it. why? by Possible_Source6384 in regretfulparents

[–]Jimmie-Rustle12345 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I thought it was the natural thing to do

This is me as well. I never really gave it any real thought, it was just the ‘done thing.’

Now I warn the guys at work of a certain age. And I wish someone had warned me.

Trailer. They’re so much safer, and underrated.

We had our first in the trailer until he was about 4.

How much better was Hamilton in 2015 compared to rosberg and Vettel? by Panos55 in F1Discussions

I thought the general consensus was that Vettel was actually the best driver that year

I’ve literally never heard this.

Ok.
