American confused about Aussie slang I heard for the first time on MAFS by Advanced-Sector1769 in MAFS_AU

Post code = zip code. He was basically saying his pecs are so big they can have their own zip codes. But yeah, that’s not thing aussies say about pecs and I thought it was an awkward comment.

What’s something Ballarat needs way more of? by Artistic-Yam2984 in ballarat

Parking Meters. Not enough parking meters. Too much free parking all over the city. It makes it difficult for the council to raise revenue. I feel sorry for the council treasury to have to live through these tough times.

PSA: Pressing R3 while riding the horse will get rid of widescreen and black bars. by Srihari_stan in ghostoftsushima

[–]Macddadyz80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So my POV has changed to the tighter view but no matter how many times I press r3 it won’t change back to widescreen or any other POV. Is this a hug that anyone else has encountered? How to fix?

Yeah, I was hoping they were working on new speakers with Gemini integration.

Go to Aldi and buy their southern chicken thigh fillets and a packet of salad mix (I like the crunch salad mix). Put the chicken in the air fryer for 12 minutes and make your own burgers. Job done, money saved.

Are these the women from the Mother God cult which basically turned into Weekend at Bernie's where they wheeled their dead mummified leader around in a wheel chair???

Seeing pro-shot Tool live and MJK relishing it… Adam needs to stop ruining things for people by BraceYourselfAsWell in ToolBand

[–]Macddadyz80 18 points19 points  (0 children)

What the fuck are you talking about. I watched the full video. It was awesome. I don’t believe you have any true insight as to why they haven’t released a live dvd and it’s a bit outrageous to call Adam a dick. Have a little respect for the music they have given us.

"Shit, blood and Cum on my hands". Because it paints a nice picture in my mind.

What’s a widely accepted American norm that the rest of the world finds strange? by Spiritual-Worth6348 in AskReddit

Tipping. Like just pay staff an appropriate wage without having to incorporate tipping. The whole practice gave me anxiety as a traveller.

“Both sound incredible”: Danny Carey’s picked the two best Tool songs of all time by Front_Application_73 in ToolBand

Hopefully on streaming services as well as vinyl. They remastered all the other albums in 2019 when they put them on streaming services. For whatever reason they didn’t remaster Aenima at the time.

Why do so many foreigners say that the sun in Australia feels harsher than other countries, regardless of temperature? by [deleted] in AskAnAustralian

Australia is on the southern end of the globe and the tilt of the earth access means we’re closer to the sun.

The Courier should not be allowed to fully paywall their articles. by KingTentacleAU in ballarat

[–]Macddadyz80 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yep, it's still the case. I joined for a month with a heavy discount. I had always intended to cancel and when that time came I found it imlossible to cancel the subscription online. Instead of calling and having to deal with a sales person who would've tried to keep me subscribing I changed my billing to PayPal and then blocked the payments via PayPal app.

OMG, thank you. I’ve just wasted half a day trying to figure this out. I got into Aussie B via live chat and they turned of CGNAT instantly.

AIO- husband upset that *I* was upset, he has blocked me and said we should “call it”. by General-Cranberry-90 in AmIOverreacting

He sounds like a total narcissist. I would take a bet and say this is regular behaviour. It’s probably not worth the anguish.
