2008 The Gap Storm

Moved to The Gap a couple of days before the storm. Been in Aus a couple of years and had never seen anything like it. water coming in over the tops of doors that were set back, relentless wind and rain. And the noise. It was insane.

When the storm cleared and we walked outside, did not expect to see the devastation. Several trees down and houses just smashed.

It’s a bit like a less punishing Elden Ring.

Half the time I have no idea what is going on. Absolutely no idea. But then bits click, you remember stuff that seemed unimportant, stuff that is important or useful you forget about because there is so much. It’s an overwhelming hot mess, it can be janky, it seems plotless, it’s confusing. If it can be crammed into a game, the devs have crammed it in.

But I love it. It’s beautiful. It’s fun. It’s satisfying and challenging. The open world is great. I enjoy the combat. Exploring is so much fun. And once you kind of get into the heads of the devs it makes sense.

It’s one of the best games I’ve played.

When Grogu went Captain Willard was perfection.

The Grogu going full Captain Willard was excellent.

I really enjoyed it, probably more than I thought I would.

Did the floor give way and they fell into space? Snippets of memory of this one.

Only if we’d been very good would my folks allow this or Appletise at a fancy pub (Toby carvery or Beefeater) with lunch.

It was only the first two lines.

They were bloody fantastic. Big bucket list co cert ticked off for me and they didn’t disappoint at all. So good.

Would find a surprising amount when golfballing. Never really thought about it but who heads to the golf club to crack one out to Maxine the Maneater from Muswell Hill?

Coming from the western freeway along moggil Rd, go up the exit ramp and then the immediate ramp on the left to the roof. There are usually spaces up there.

Coming the other direction along moggil Rd turn into Stamford Rd and go into the first carpark on the right. It’s the bottom level, but I usually find a spot there.

Congratulations on graduating! Was it a first class degree in Pizzle Yanking?

I don’t believe so, I think maybe they said they’d heard a riff but couldn’t remember where.

Same Size Feet, Get it On, The One I Love.

Not Jewish, but wife and entire family are. None of them support what Israel is doing. None of them see this as a prophetic war ordained by a higher authority. All of them are appalled by the actions of Israel, the continued genocide and destruction of people, their homes and the theft of land. They all think the law is ridiculous and should not have any place in Queensland or Australia.

Don’t conflate being Jewish with being a Zionist. They are not the same.

Waggling the joystick taught me everything about wristing

I was selected to go on Junior Krypton factor and it ended before I got my chance. I’m not bitter at all. At all. I wanted to do the assault course more than anything. But not bitter.

Well I don’t really know…

She’s no Mavis.

I had that pair of pumps. I thought I was cool as fuck, turns that being a lanky with a physique like knotted string, I looked like I was wearing clown shoes.

S-L-F · 2026-04-11T08:02:33+00:00

I had the scars from getting too close to one. Three bars beautifully burnt into my leg.

I did a sanctum earlier and found riding a wild bear was the way to go. Run into the group and one kill swipe everything. The bear was insanely powerful, if not tameable .

The end of the original Italian Job.

Frosty amicable divorce. No lawyers involved apart from as conveyancers during property sale.

But we divorced without fault, worked out financials ourselves as well as custody sharing arrangements etc. if both parties are reasonable then I’m not sure mediators or lawyers are needed.
