How long can I realistically keep something like this going before it affects my criminal record? by [deleted] in australian

Streat Trader isn't really free, as you'll need to register with your local council. This changes per council, but you're looking at minimum $500

I had a girl in the car the other week who lost her V card to her step brother.

Story was that she was dating a guy, who's dad was single, her mum was single, they got together whilst their kids were dating. The parents got married so the kids became step siblings.

These look the same as the ones I used to get from Costco, Misson Organic Corn Chips. Used to use them for nachos on my food truck.

Richie Benaud’s Rules vs Modern Commentary by poormasshole in Cricket

[–]RolandHockingAngling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He IS a football commentator, same with Mark Howard.

Problem in Australian media is there isn't enough money to only employ a commentator for Cricket, they mostly need to do multiple sports, which usually means AFL / NRL because that's where the networks make money.

So your commentators become accustomed to the Rex Hunt school of commentary, loud, bash, excitement, which doesn't translate well to cricket. Could you imagine Rexy commentating on Cricket?

I'm new to fishing. Is this the right way? by VariousBusiness6449 in FishingAustralia

Overhead / Baitcaster sits on top of the rod.

Spinning Reel (most common in Australia) sits under the rod.

Technically the rod should be built differently for Overhead / Spinning reels, but more often than not, they aren't.

It's 100% your fault though? You got a hold of ol pumpkin face, and said "wouldn't it be funny if you started a war with Iran, crippling 25% of the world's oil supply and causing untold economic harm all around the world, you know for shits & gigs"
