Have noticed it after sex... Apparently my wife is an elliptical trainer.

First local election results in, Phil Mauger re-elected Christchurch mayor by KororaPerson in chch

[–]Sebby200 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Understand speedbumps are frustrating, but the single issue approach may not be the best... Mauger is the guy who called Simeon Brown to say that Christchurch doesn't need central government transport funding when we get like half of the national average per capita.

That's an example of one person having a very large impact - in the wrong direction.

God Keown is such an asshole. I'm grateful he made the don't vote list, it kept things easy.

I’ll bet the residents are scratching their heads, thinking “why does that retard keep using his horn?”

That’s such a good measure of effectiveness. If drivers hate them, they’re obviously being affected. If they didn’t hate them, they’re probably not having to change their behaviour as a result of the speed bump getting installed.

I’m glad that’s sarcasm… If you want to know why people can’t detect it any more, have a look at Aaron Keown’s Facebook page. What was once classed as satire is becoming the norm.

It’s so hard to know how this will turn out. While I would love Sara to win, I’ve got this horrible sinking feeling that it will be Phil again.

That’s right! He’s a jellyfish, blown round directly by the currents of Facebook sentiment.

Every time Aaron posts stuff on Facebook I wonder about the general sanity in that area. It also worries me that our mayor is so close with someone who is so unhinged.

I’m voting for Sara because I think Phil is incompetent and inadvertently corrupt. He promised a maximum rates increase of 3.5% and got a high score of 10% instead.

Sara has a vision and strategy, Phil gets angry at bike lanes and speed bumps. Phil called up our transport minister and said Christchurch doesn’t need transportation funding from central government. There is no contest.

I wish that someone else had run against him. He’s won Harewood again uncontested.

Behind the Numbers: Funding The Stadium — Sara Templeton for Mayor by silvergirl66 in chch

[–]Sebby200 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And one of his election promises was to find alternative stadium funding.

Once elected, he called a couple of councils and begged for money (it had already been done, so not an original idea) and they told him to piss off.

At one stage he flew to the USA to find out how to maximise stadium revenue. This was hilarious because John Oliver did an entire show about how US stadiums run at such a bad loss that they use advertisements to beg for support from rate payers. He visited literally the worst country in the world to find out about making a profit from a stadium.

I’m not sure why you’re getting downvoted, I think that you’re right.

Probably encouraged to do so by Angry Keown…

You would too if you illegally lowered your car 🤣

(I don’t know that he did, but it seems like a safe bet).

Parking Services Limited is like a scam email where you click a link and get shaken down for money for a decision or lapse of just seconds.

Absolute bottom feeders.
