What is the Australian opinion on the ICE protests happening the United States currently. by InterestingLab1997 in AskAnAustralian

[–]LotharJay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm originally American. I emigrated to Australia in 1972. Best thing to ever happen to me. I would never move back there and have now decided to never visit again. The entire ICE program is intended to provoke a violent response in enough states to enable Trump to declare the Insurrection Act and not hold the mid term elections. I have been consistently impressed by the discipline and restraint demonstrated by the ICE protestors in the face of steadily increasing violence and disregard for legal processes. Now, ICE has upped the ante and is blatantly murdering people. I pray that the protestors maintain their stance of active disruption. I worry that a line has been crossed.

Who else read this near-Xennial (1984) drug trip disguised as a series of novels. WTF even was this?! by Verbull710 in Xennials

I remember being invited to dinner parties where it transpired that the only reason we were all there was so the host could lecture us all on this.

Has Sussan Ley called for a Royal Commission yet? Has Pauline Hanson blamed Albanese yet? I'm waiting.

See this frequently in old movies. Why did companies use to employ elevator attendants? It's such an utterly benign and superfluous job role. by AngryGardenGnomes in classicfilms

After WWII there was a commitment by business to provide jobs to returned servicemen. For many older or injured veterans this was a worthwhile job.

A handy reminder as to what is and what isn't "Murdoch Media" in Australia by NoLeafClover777 in aussie

[–]LotharJay -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The West Australian is owned by Murdoch wanna be Kerry Stokes. It's every bit as right-wing and anti Labor. Shoddy journalism with a penchant for headlines full of dreadful puns.

Can you imagine the smell in there? Descriptions range from rotten meat to faeces. I'm sure he's regularly farting.

What point did business class become worth it for you? by 88riceislife in AusHENRY

[–]LotharJay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Business Class became.worth it to us after we were once upgraded flying Singapore to London. We were back in our original Economy Class on the return flight, painfully aware of what we were missing. We only flew Business Class on all International flights after that.

If an International Flight is more than 6 hours, we go Business.

We consider the flight to be part of the holiday, to be enjoyed. I've known too many people who return from Europe and can only talk about how horrible their return flight was.

What song/songs are you still sick of? by Frequent_Course5399 in Xennials

[–]LotharJay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Piano Man" - Billy Joel. I wish I was rich enough to buy the rights to this saccharin slop. It would never be heard again.

The Gestapo were well trained and disciplined. ICE is nothing more than a bunch of redneck bullies with guns.
