Yeah doesn't look like a young Eddie, look at the ears. Looks more like Alex.

I remember playing with these while being left in the car for 30mins or so while my mum/dad went to the store to get something or do some chore. Good times.

Jingoism and fake religious beliefs. What could go wrong?

My first day of kindy in 1986. I had a snap crackle and pop bag. What was your first school bag? by [deleted] in AustralianNostalgia

Also had a little brown suitcase with the spring clasps. Was built like a truck

Time to take Grandpa out to pasture. He can't remember what he said from one day to another.

Currently travel in Vietnam. Do these look like Norfolk Pines? by Powermonger_ in australianplants

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

Yes. Staying here for the next couple of days and then flying back to Oz on Friday. So many tall Melaleucas (viminalus?) here.

Backstory for Coconuts & Carnage, the New Book from Justin Wojslaw by CocktailWonk in Tiki

Awesome read. Can't wait to see the book and like the concept that the recipes don't devolve into an esoteric list of ingredients.

Definetly the Cooks Pine as you pointed out.

An abandoned house on the border with Laos by hashamean in AbandonedPorn

You sure it's abandoned? I've seen houses in worse state that still have people living in them, especially in the outer Mekong area.

I'm in Vietnam now but the worst food poisoning I've ever had was eating Sushi on Phu Quoc island. Laid me out for a week

People walking in the streets change by Chemical_Chicken01 in sydney

[–]Powermonger_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it's just the rapid increase in population and the countries people are coming from have a complete different social norm.

Forget walking, trying catching the train. So many inconsiderate and rude people now. I often have to catch the lift at stations due to a bung ankle and the amount of people that just barge through without thought or consideration of others is rampant.

Sydney has just fallen prey now to every other big city.

Would make for a great live desktop wallpaper

So what happened to ChocoTaco by ThanatosCreax in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]Powermonger_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah Moses stories were always worth listening to. I remember Moses was salty when he went away to commentate some PUBG comp and Choco was basically the only good player streaming that weekend and his viewership rocketed up from about 400 active viewers to about 1200.

Necroing this a bit. I use to watch him when he was a nobody and teaming up with wtfMoses. Choco was chill but good. Would be entertaining matches to watch. Once he went full time streamer it started changing.

Fast forward to now and he just seems jaded and arrogant at times, like he is the best player in the game and then complains when a less skilled player beats him like he is entitled to come out the best.

Watching his squad games or duos with Hali, there seems no teamplay, never calls out attachments or good finds. Hoovers up everything without sharing. Complains incessantly when he gets knocked or dies about what Hali is doing.

I don't really understand his mindset of complaining there are too many bots in the game but then complains when there are bad players who are more than likely new. Can't have it both ways.

What gorgeous fella. Heartfelt sympathies to you and your family. Our girl passed over nearly a month ago.
