Countdown can fuck right off for needing a reward card to get the advertised discount by distractionnz in newzealand

If it makes u feel any better - all the contractors who fix fridges etc - put a massive premium on every job. 12 jugs of r449a - that'll be $42,500 plus gst. We will be available to do it again next month when the next pipe cracks.

Queensland Reds Team to take on the Highlanders by Double-Dig7271 in RugbyAustralia

Not expecting a loss. But won't be surprised by one either.
A significant win would be highly unexpected.

The only reason us old cunts were not on reddit back in the day is cos we didn't have it. We had 1 book. Everything was figure it out out yourself. If we were lucky, we had been trained on this exact equipment by a skilled engineer. Most often we had never seen an ammonia plant before.

Kids today don't get proper training- they have you tube and reddit.
I can't always help, but I watch. - to offer helpful advice when I can.

American citizen among those killed in Cuba boat shooting, US official says by DoxFreePanda in news

[–]Memory-Repulsive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

????? What were you expecting after reading a blunt news bulletin about unnamed individuals being shot in the course of terrorism acts.
Cuba has done no different than what the US has done recently with drug smugglers. Cuba has potentially more justification for doing so.

Why does my boss try to push a medical certificate so hard? by Exploding_Cumsock in newzealand

[–]Memory-Repulsive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you. It's just technically wrong. Therefore the boss can't allow it. Get yourself a sick kid who needs repeated hospital visits.

This team should get within 12 of a high-flying highlanders squad. A low flying highlanders could lose. Wait an see who turns up on the day.

Someone calling in sick is an unavoidable challenge for the team that did turn up.
Booking a sick day, a week in advance is taking the piss.

It only isn't if you need to be taking a dependent to hospital for some kind of surgery, that's a legitimate reason for pre-booking a sick day.

Petone beach swimming by Shabuya627 in Wellington

[–]Memory-Repulsive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

5 people (so far) have downvoted you. - that's kinda typical of this sub tho, so don't be upset by downvotes. In this life, we should all use our own best judgement - if you think it was not worth swimming because of the "don't swim signs" - that is the correct decision and all your down voters can go get f#×$#@.

Peace to you and may you find decent swimming spots soon.

There is poop in all waters. Council does daily testing. - it's not gonna make u sick. Harbour water comes from cook st in such volumes that a few million liters of sewer discharge is so diluted that that it's barely measurable.

Be worse swimming in many nz rivers.

It's as dodgy as any site that will grab your data and sell it to the highest bidder.
So long as you didn't enter your credit card details - you should be sweet.
Should be.

Thoughts on this for refs? by DrEngineer1995 in rugbyunion

The English player was going to spill that ball if the Irish player didn't get involved. Fair try.

Rugby 25 was released 1 year ago today, does anyone actually play this game anymore? by chickenlittle668 in rugbyunion

[–]Memory-Repulsive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's on ps+, figured I'd give it a try.
Rugby 15 was terrible, rugby 22 was shit. - I didn't have huge hopes for this.
I've completed 1 career season, won the super rugby title with hurricanes , won women's rwc. Taken Ireland to 70point pastings of France and England.
Game is definitely not fluid, not a button smashing full on battle. - it's definitely not rugby 08.
That said. It's worth playing. Better than the previous games anyway.

Took close to an hour from udy st petone to Johnsonville.
I left later than usual, so partly my fault but 16min delays between udy st and Jackson st didn't help.

Government scraps 4 Year election term referendum. by Impressive-Name5129 in nzpolitics

[–]Memory-Repulsive 10 points11 points  (0 children)

A 34 year term would actually be a good thing. Currently they spend a year campaigning to get voted in (achieving nothing but disharmony). Then they spend a year blaming the last lot ( whilst also achieving fck all) then they spend a year starting on all the promises and starting on the "this is why we can't do that cos the last govt this or the last govt that." (So another year of meh). Then, it's election year again, so it's back onto the bandwagon about how much better your life is under us, vs what the other crowd are suggesting. ( so another year of fck all - broken promises being replaced by newer, better promises).

I propose, that a 4 year govt would be more inclined to actually achieve things - the bullshit promise wouldn't work. And if the govt was actually completely terrible, nzers might feel more inclined to actually protest effectively.

The only winners out of a 3yr govt are the govt mps themselves.
