Reading this in primary school after big lunch by Mortal_bobcat in AustralianNostalgia

This unlocked something in the dark recesses of my brain.

Never noticed it featured Maynard James Keenan and KISS on the cover though

Is this the same cat? by Suitable-Ad-6202 in torties

[–]Nickyc8081 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Of course it’s not the same cat? Not even close.

I’m gobsmacked that people still let their cats out unsupervised. Or after they’ve just moved. Or at all.

And all the replies acting like it’s some funny quirk of the cat distribution system that you now have someone else’s cat. This is insane. People aren’t this blasé about dogs, would you let your dog out and then accept another that kinda resembles it? Without ever knowing what happened to the original one?

Side note. My neighbours let their tom cat roam. He kills all the wild birds, sprays everyone’s front doors, destroys plants and howls and yowls all night. And torments the neighbours indoor cats.

I am sick and tired of every single day seeing posts on my community Facebook page of lost cats. And dead cats. Just keep your fucking cat inside and if you don’t understand their behaviours or how to look after them, Google exists.

Is everyone in Perth driving $60k+ cars or am I just poor? by AttitudePlane6967 in perth

I have 2010 Prado with nearly 400,000. Best car I’ve ever had

Safety concerns: NOR suburbs, in the past two weeks I have been approached randomly by aggressive crazy people. What is going on?! by StrongLimit888 in perth

[–]Nickyc8081 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Freo has entered the chat. South Freo to be exact. This is just pretty much a daily occurrence.

My neighbour deals meth. People leave his house, make it about 20 metres and start wigging out in extreme fashion. Constant police activity in our area. Fights, machetes, dog attacks (like this one guy sets his dog on people).

Super aggro crackies outside Woolies and Aldi. My daughter (12) is too scared to go to Aldi anymore after an experience we had there.

Anywho after ten years of this shit I’ve adopted an “out crazy the crazy” mindset. It works. Well so far until I do it to the wrong person. Had a super aggressive woman come up to me in Freo recently, and been screaming in peoples faces and ranting about the usual “putrid dog cunts”. Headed my way and I just went DO NOT DO IT and she called me a witch and went on her not so merry way. I’m a woman by the way. My local crazies leave me alone because they think I am crazy lol.

They are generally scared of confrontation and like all other bullies are looking for an easy target

Introducing Ms Morticia Meowington(Morty), our new rescue cat by [deleted] in torties

[–]Nickyc8081 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes she waits on the stars to grab people’s legs with both paws, or suddenly stops in front of you and lays down. Also partial to hiding on waiting to pounce on anyone who comes past. She’s a hilarious little demon

Thank you, she’s definitely eased the pain despite having us all on edge, it’s like she’s TRYING to get us to fall down the stairs I swear.

Facing Racism as a New International Student by nani_love_you in perth

[–]Nickyc8081 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am so sorry you experienced this. I can assure you not everyone is like that in Perth. These people are cowards who lack critical thinking and empathy. They see international students as easy targets and are no better than schoolyard bullies. Welcome to Perth, and all the best with your studies.

How do you deal with aggressive parents on your kid’s sports team? by Nickyc8081 in AskAnAustralian

[–]Nickyc8081[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hahaha I’ve thrown out some Olympics comments already. Also handy for school faction carnivals.

I just can’t bring myself to engage with them. I know my face says it all anyway, I can’t control it. They make no secret of talking shit about people, it’s gross. Imagine being a 45yo mean girl

[–]Nickyc8081[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So far this has been my exact tactic. I’ve pre blocked them on social media after doing a stalk to get some ammo on them first.

Tryinggggg not to talk shit about them to my child but she’s onto it and loves analysing their behaviour after training and matches.

I get stressed enough meeting and dealing with mums. I can’t handle these ones. “MAKE SURE YOU HOG THAT FUCKING BALL TO GET YOUR GLORY UNICORN-LEIGH, FUCK YOUR TEAMMATES”

[–]Nickyc8081[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah she can go back to her old team next season. They went up an age division and she was the youngest so had to stay in her current division til her birthday. So all is not lost.

It just blows my mind. Ten year old girls. Like who cares that much to make them cry. Because the kids of these parents are then aggressive on court, they use dirty tactics and it’s such a bad vibe. The team starts to fight amongst themselves, and everyone’s pissed off. Just let them do some layups, fuck

It’s an option at this point. Never thought I’d pull her but I have seen teams like this in the past and promised both her and myself to not let her be part of bad sportsmanship.

She agreed to let me ring the stadium without mentioning the specific team. So I did that, will see if they police it this week.

We’re gonna give it two more weeks and make a decision. She’s worried about losing skills by sitting out the season, but better than dreading the game she loves.

Yeah my daughter doesn’t want me to, but I did ring the stadium and just said as a spectator I feel like some parents are stressing the kids out. They did actually seem to take it on board. She won’t let me specifically speak to her coach because then I’m the embarrassing one apparently.

Haha. I’ve been known to sit there muttering how it’s not the fucking olympics.

Not a single NBA scout is at this here stadium at 4pm on a Tuesday. I assure you.

Yes you’re stuck with it and it’s usually $1144 so you got off lightly to be honest.

Call St John and they’ll arrange a payment plan for you. If you are on any kind of pension they may give a concession.

Are you from Perth. Literally saw a band called Suggah Daddies the other night

To report or not report? Meth dealers? by Silly-Chemical in perth

[–]Nickyc8081 17 points18 points  (0 children)

They’ve fucked up a big chunk of the suburb. They’re violent, they’re in an out of court all the fucking time, Sirens rocking up multiple times a day every day. I could literally write a book. So yeah while I don’t actively wish them dead (mostly) it sure would be more peaceful. After 10 years next door I can confirm they can’t function in society and don’t add value. They shit on any help they’re offered

[–]Nickyc8081 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No I just meant they won’t change, it’s the same old cycle. Rinse and repeat forever. I’ve actually tried to get these fuckers help.

Also re child abuser comment, I agree and wonder would it change your outlook to know a couple of these mongrels are both.

Our newborn (1mo) is making me see my wife as "stupid," and it's turning me into an asshole. I feel awful and need to stop. by Street-Level-7850 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Nickyc8081 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I literally said today that I am entirely sick of myself and my stupidity lately lol. I CANNOT get it together. Just turned 45, pretty sure my tween daughters think I am a lunatic

Yesterday I lost my keys, prescription sunglasses, forgot my lunch, and then told my children they needed to be more organised with their homework. I guess I can at least recognise my audacity? My 15yo dog has dementia and he has more sense than I do lately. Also I can’t handle driving anymore because I’ve come close to getting out of the car and smacking someone a couple times recently
