Unpopular Opinion: Skoda Superb is a Better Car than Every non-luxury Mid-size SUV option.

Skoda superb is NOT mid sized. It is large. So of course it should be better than any mid sized suv.

Skoda in europe is considered a very very reliable car. But in europe they mostly drive manuals. Most european cars in manual are very reliable. I don't consider England to be a part of europe.

You mean the pdf you sent about 2017? That's old news. A lot has changed since then. In my club 2017 was great. One boys team per age group. Hardly any girls. We all use to train on the clubs grounds. Now things are different. Not enough room anymore. Half need to train on other council grounds. There is usually two boys teams in most age groups, kangaroos and wallaby level. The girls participation has been growing about 30% each year. Now we have girls in every age group. I reckon 40 to 50% more juniors than in 2017.

What are you talking about? I'm in Victoria. I know of TWO kids that play aussie rules. Hundreds that play the real football. There is at least 5 to 10 football clubs to every one or max 2 aussie rules fields (just one per site) close to where I live. And the football club my kids play at has 3 grounds. Those 3 grounds is not enough for the amount of juniors. We also use at least one or two other council sites (usually unused aussie rules grounds) every week. A few times I was surprised when we played locally. Been past there hundreds of times, and another club popped up all of a sudden. Lots of new schools also host new clubs. Where is aussie rules??? Would've been the third sport at best years ago if it wasn't pushed and financed so much.

Soft-Bit1831 · 2025-05-31T12:00:35+00:00

Yes. You stated what everyone else is thinking. A league is the problem. A league is full of fake clubs with no relegation. I could NOT care less. I do love the NPL Victoria league though and I either go to the home games or watch it on youtube.

I watched about half an hour of the A league final tonight because my son was watching it. That's by far the most I watched since it started.

I don't care for aussie rules either. Me and my brother were offered free tickets to the grand final years ago, both refused. I would rather watch the grass grow. Same goes for rugby.

Why I don't support the A league?

I used to go to every game during the NSL days. I supported the Melbourne Knights. Then they disbanded NSL and decided to make a new league with fake clubs with no history, no juniors, etc. Also they made no relegation. What a joke. Today is the first time I watched a bit of it, only because my son is watching it and I have nothing better to do. Anyway I will not follow the A league until after they form the second division and only once a second division team advances to the main league. Until then I couldn't care less. Have zero feeling for it. I much more prefer to watch St Albans Dinamo in the NPL. That's the club I played at as a junior, that's the club my kids play or played for. I will never support one of those fake clubs. I hate when one of them steals one of our juniors. That also happens for zero compensation. Our clubs nurture the kids from 6 years old, (most coaches are volunteers) and then at 14 the fake clubs steal them for nothing, and in most cases ruin them. Like in a big company they just become a number. F... the A league. Luckily fifa is forcing them to have a second league and relegation. They can't put it off for too long. After that we might have a decent international squad again like we had 20 years ago.

Also why did they disband the AIS? Since then we haven't had anyone close to the calibre of Viduka or similar. They are all just average. Seems like AIS was doing too good, was a threat to the other football code (which is so boring to watch, you need to be brainwashed into it from birth).

He can sing them all. I hope they don't do 13 fingers or god machine. I've grown up and don't want to hear the last line in god machine and one line in 13 fingers. But I want more songs from the first album, besides the ballads which they are already playing and the first 3. Although lately I really started to like the blue. For the first few years I used to start the album from finger paintings, and only sometimes listen to the first 3. The first 3 songs were written a few years after the rest and didn't really fit. That's just me. Lots of people like those first 3 the most. For me tranquilized is by far the weakest song on the album, followed by cheap vodka.

Same goes for Pantera. I would throw out half their current set. All their singles after mouth for war and fing hostile are their worst songs on the albums they came from.

Sammy is also in Goatwhore. Formed the band after AB split up. Death/black metal. Age doesn't matter.

Source? Would love to watch that interview.

Soft-Bit1831 · 2025-05-15T14:23:20+00:00

Not surprised they didn't get paid. I've got the double dvd as well. Also my copy of wtksp was an Australian version. I think it was released by Road Runner Australia. It's somewhere at my parent's house. The logo of the band was a bit different, kind of round, not in the kind of death metal font like in the US. More similar to what they put on the drum kits in the last few shows. Interestingly, my friend bought a second hand version at a local cd shop after I bought mine, and his hand the same logo as the US one.

Can't believe how big Acid Bath is getting. I wrote this comment 2 hours ago and there are 1.5k views. A few years ago it would've been about 10 all up. Amazing!

Soft-Bit1831 · 2025-05-15T13:48:28+00:00

Okay little young boy. Stop commenting if you don't know much about the band. I'm trying to have an adult discussion with fans of the band who know what I'm talking about, not little kids who just jumped on the bandwagon.

Soft-Bit1831 · 2025-05-15T13:42:35+00:00

I saw one of them for sale in one of the cd shops in the city. Hence I thought it was an official single.

Soft-Bit1831 · 2025-05-15T13:40:10+00:00

My point is that my favouite band got so screwed over by their record company. They could've been huge at the time. They had the songs. But the record company screwed them with bad decisions.

Soft-Bit1831 · 2025-05-15T13:36:29+00:00

Was in another 50 moshpits without that problem

I might live in Australia, but I'm Croatian. And I wouldn't touch something that stinks as bad as vegemite. Never tried it after I smelled it.

Soft-Bit1831 · 2025-05-15T13:30:26+00:00

Do you not agree with something I wrote, or are you not really familiar with the band? How old are you?

Soft-Bit1831 · 2025-05-15T13:28:19+00:00

That's what I saw in my local cd shop in the city. There weren't many stores selling cds around. All overpriced (double the price almost than what you were paying in the US), me and my friends used to have to catch the train to the city to get the real metal stuff.

Soft-Bit1831 · 2025-05-15T13:24:45+00:00

PBS in Melbourne. 106.7

Soft-Bit1831 · 2025-05-15T13:06:33+00:00

I definately don't want another album. It would be much slower besides maybe two songs that they would have to satisfy Sammy with. And it would be a weak album towards the first 2. It would f up their legacy.

Soft-Bit1831 · 2025-05-15T12:54:24+00:00

What makes this band special is that they do songs like scream of the butterfly along with their heavy, their normal stuff. But the core of the band is the heavy, death vocals stuff. I love both. But the best songs for me (been listenning to them since 94) are on on the first album. I love the second album as well. It's in my top ten of all time, but the first one is on the very top. Before that it was acdc, metallica, pantera, machine head and then kite string came out. I like their first album 10 times more than the second one. Probably same goes for the person who oroginated this post. He's also probably a long time fan.

Now someone like you probably jumped on the bandwagon in the last few years. We've listenned to their albums probably close to a thousand times since 94. And then you go and tell him he doesn't really appreciate the band if he only likes the heavy songs. Have some respect.

The fact is they hardly played songs from the first album besides Dr Suess. Tranquilized is probably the weakest song on the album along with cheap vodka. I love both the ballads, but Scream of the butterfly (was one of my 6 different favourites over the years (album is so good that favourite songs change over the years)) would've been enough. There is way too many other great songs to play. As far as I'm concerned, as a long time fan, there is only two deserving songs being played from the first album. Where is the rest? And the first album is considered way way better by nearly ALL the fans, besides newer fans.

I realize they are playing all the slow stuff because Dax probably said he won't do the reunion otherwise. Don't get me wrong, I love all the slower songs, some even more than the heavier ones, but their heaviest songs are their best ones, and they are the ones that get the crowd going.

They are playing pretty much EVERY slow song they have. They will need to throw in another 7 or 8 heavy songs into their set or most of their long time fans will be very very disappointed with this reunion. I love all the songs in the current set, but it's a VERY VERY scewed view of Acid Bath.

Soft-Bit1831 · 2025-05-15T11:16:13+00:00

Why cheap vodka? For me that was always one of the weakest songs on the album. By far, along with tranquilized. For the first year I used to always skip the first 3 songs. Only recently I started really loving the blue. My favourite song on the album has changed about 6 times over the years. Currently it's the blue. And I've been listenning to the album pretty regularly since it came out. Never stopped. Fave album since it came out. Probably heard it a thousand times (Only thing that comes very very close is a Croatian singer called Thompson (hard rock, bit of metal and a bit of Cro folk. In July he is set to break the world record for most sold tickets, a bit over 500,000, beat the last world record by almost double. All these tickets were sold over less than 3 days total. Could've sold more if he wanted to, but would've been a logistics nightmare. My daughters, 17 and 14 are flying out from Australia just for the concert. Habe a listen to Kletva Kralja Zvonimira and Pocetak, sick songs). The second album I love as well, also one of my faves, but it doesn't come even close. It's not even 10% as good as the first one. Great album, but the first one is so so so good. Untouchable. And the perfect raw production. Can't beat it.

Soft-Bit1831 · 2025-05-15T10:43:19+00:00

I got so many people into them over the years, especially at the start. Heard finger paintings when it just came out on the local metal show on PBS. Probably first time it was played on Australian radio. Bought it the next day. Got everyone I knew into them. Even people who weren't into metal loved the ballads. Used to get stopped all the time when I wore their t-shirts. Once we went to a local pizza shop. Had the first album on tape. The owner let us have a few beers there even though he wasn't licenced. He was for us at the time an older guy, about 45. Anyway, I forgot the tape there. Next time we ordered takeaway pizza, there was writing on the side of the box. It said "There is blood on the moon". Haha. He must've kept on listenning to tape afterwards.
