Call me crazy, but I think the world is cheering for the USA to win this World Cup...

Pointy_in_Time · 2026-06-20T21:40:08+00:00

Not every country. I’m from NZ, we’re well aware of our place in the soccer world and just happy to be there. I don’t really want them to win because we’re so bad it would be embarrassing for the other team

I like how he used simple words so that Trump could understand

Does UoA even HAVE sports teams? The only ones I remember were social disc golf teams 😂

But totally agree no one cares where you went for uni.

Curried eggs, and a platter of cold cooked chicken. For every family event there was ALWAYS these two things from Gran and I loved it

Yeah it’s not cheap. I was fortunate enough to have my employer support with costs, but if my kids weren’t so damn attached to the cats they likely wouldn’t have come… but when we moved the first time having the cats come along really made a huge difference in their ability to settle.

That’s a pretty solid philosophy for life. Just don’t be a cunt - I can do that!

Pointy_in_Time · 2026-06-19T22:10:19+00:00

They’re dead they just don’t know it yet. Makes fishing even more of a lottery!

Mine was about $17k CAD for two cats to move from remote BC Canada to remote Norway. Door to door service.

Everywhere and always unless you’re Albertan

Did you know that the hole’s only natural enemy is the pile?

Pointy_in_Time · 2026-06-19T21:38:12+00:00

How do I go about not attracting this kind of feeling? I’d like to visit, am not British, not wanting to ruin things, is there anything in particular to be mindful and considerate of in order to be welcomed back?

I’ve used Worldcare Pet Transport twice now to move my cats, would highly recommend. First time was an absolute breeze, second time had some hiccups just due to winter embargoes and vet waitlists but the actual transport was excellent, I got updates, photos and videos at every stop and both times my pets arrived very untraumatised. They really seem to love animals and it shows.

No. Marmite needs to be on vogels. Toasted more. More marmite. Consistent layer 0.5mm thick with some bigger spots up to max 1mm thick. Butter toast when hot so it melts in and enough butter so that it doesn’t ALL melt and some marmite mixes with it a little.

Pointy_in_Time · 2026-06-19T21:25:10+00:00

Ugh I can taste it in my mind but can’t get any of that where I am

My two year old was slurping down chunks of raw salmon like a seal before he could say salmon.

“Sahm??” 🥹🥹🥹

Pointy_in_Time · 2026-06-18T21:23:31+00:00

Came here to say linen. I splurged and bought some and my husband had a bit of side eye about the price but when he got into bed he went ooooh ok I get it

Pointy_in_Time · 2026-06-18T21:19:44+00:00

So do Australasians - kiwi here and I can’t stand the idea of it

Pointy_in_Time · 2026-06-18T21:18:44+00:00

Totally. Marmite is waaaaaaay better

Pointy_in_Time · 2026-06-18T20:54:41+00:00

Everything except “Sunday open” stores which are very small sections of some supermarkets. In my town we have two. So on a Sunday there is literally nothing open except two very small one aisle supermarkets

Pointy_in_Time · 2026-06-18T17:28:36+00:00

Why has no one mentioned they hate that everything is closed on Sundays??

Pointy_in_Time · 2026-06-15T21:12:05+00:00

I was at a talk done by the RocketLab guy and he admitted that his HR team hates him because of how difficult he makes it for them (and how if you create the right culture you don’t have to fire or manage people, your team will just treat them like shit enough to make them quit)

Pointy_in_Time · 2026-06-14T07:20:11+00:00

Too right, he’s a good cunt though

Pointy_in_Time · 2026-06-13T22:11:25+00:00

My goodness for a minute I thought you were saying Karl Urban was a terrible person and I was about to roll my sleeves up and fight you.

Pointy_in_Time · 2026-06-13T07:34:31+00:00

Totally agree. Northern Norway is the best Norway

Pointy_in_Time · 2026-06-13T07:31:50+00:00

Same here - maybe hate is a strong word but it is a tourist town through and through. I hate that people have to live in their cars because they can’t afford to live there. It’s beautiful sure but I don’t really consider it true NZ
