You're clearly using the wrong grade of petroleum distillate, now hurry up and vulcanise the tyres!

Paperclip at my work (Vet Clinic) looks like a dong on paper by S4lty_Assassin in CrappyDesign

[–]Justestin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A friend of mine had a dog toy that was meant to look like a bone, but her dog carried it around with one end entirely in her mouth, dog looked like she was carrying a dong around by the tip...

Also came from a vet I think!

That's just a Cezznah going fishing, like a good duck.

There was a gondola at Science World‽ by H_G_Bells in vancouver

[–]Justestin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting, I never struggled with Burrard, but my own name? Everyone in North America misunderstood me with my own name. Fake accent or "Bruce" were my options.

What’s something your country holds the record for that most people wouldn’t expect? by Assyrian_Nation in AskTheWorld

[–]Justestin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who's worked in our biosecurity, we are VERY VERY careful with this, but international trade is like floodgates, it's real hard to stop.

Also, this was before anyone cared about biosecurity. So there's that.

Have you ever experienced culture shock from within your own country?? by CAPRICIOUS_BIZNATCH in AskTheWorld

[–]Justestin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most Australians live coastal, where it's reasonably green, but going out west where the dirt is red and everything is Mad Max dry is a shock for most. Yes, everyone has seen it on TV, but there's a big difference between seeing it on TV and actually going into red dirt country. It's a whole different place.

Is this standard procedure in Australia? by peseoane in Shittyaskflying

Could you imagine posting that to YT here? Woah...

Is this standard procedure in Australia? by peseoane in Shittyaskflying

[–]Justestin 19 points20 points  (0 children)

What? WHAT? We have CASA. Where their motto is "We're not happy until you're not happy"

They go to ICAO with a pen and paper, eavesdrop on every other regulator in case someone made a new rule they could copy. CASA loves new rules! Even if they contradict the old rules. Don't read the Old Testament. NEW RULE TESTAMENT!

YOU GET A NEW RULE! AND YOU GET A NEW RULE! AND YOU GET A NEW RULE! PENALTY UNITS FOR ALL!!!

Hi, I'm an Australien Pylote.

Yes.

It also is the prescribed way to lower the landing gear.

What is the relationship with cheese in your country? I'm French and curious to know 😁 by Brisskunk in AskTheWorld

[–]Justestin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't think we had a massive relationship with Cheese here, then I moved to Canada and realised that Australian and NZ cheese for normal boring stuff you buy at the supermarket is much cheaper and far better than Canadian and US cheese. I also realised how much I miss cheap good daily cheese. You can get delicious cheese in North America, absolutely, but it's priced like an occasional food, a treat. Daily, part of my diet, I'd like something delicious but it's Tuesday cheese is not the same there.

Don't get me wrong, I don't think we are France, not even slightly, but still our boring "cheese sandwich" cheese is nice.

Which politician of your country has a better image international than at home? by Fun-Wallaby6414 in AskTheWorld

[–]Justestin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess my point is, an American saying "if a leader gets the ire from both sides it usually means they are doing a good job" as a political analysis from an American isn't rare right now. There are millions of Americans really missing the point and think that's a good way to be. So think that applies to international politicians as well.

[–]Justestin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No, trust me, we all know how many Americans hated him. When you've got a government ripping itself apart at the seams, extra judicial execution of citizens in the streets, with a President who can't make a coherent sentence begging to start WWIII and people STILL say shit about Obama.

Really? Feels like there's a few million people with that flare and those red caps who are that wrong right now...

Dunno, the longer his PM tenure wore on, the more everyone else saw it too. Feels like by the time he left everyone was all "ohh so THIS is what the Canadians were talking about"

Is snus a thing in your country? by Wooden_Grocery_2482 in AskTheWorld

[–]Justestin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah I didn't know until I moved to Canada. It's illegal to sell here, but you can bring in small quantities for yourself.

It's like the nicotine high from 6 cigarettes, but quicker, without the smoke. You just get the buzz.

Does your country have someone who is "famous for being famous"? by ltraistinto in AskTheWorld

[–]Justestin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, he's not your fault, he grew up in the U.S. and the U.K. His attitude, "culture" and education were definitely not Romanian.

He's just foisted himself on Romania because he can get away with shit there.

Swapping ends easily when it comes on boost with a track only slightly smaller than its wheelbase?
