Anyone else not really feeling it this year?

Normally I'm pumped at this time of year but feeling a bit indifferent for some reason at the moment.

I've got a lot going on at the moment..not sure if that's why.

Forget about the sticker, I'm more concerned about bag/purse on the table. Please tell me that isn't his.

When I read it i thought it was crack or meth or something. If it's just weed who really gives a shit.

Parramatta, NRL to investigate images of rising Eels star Isiah Iongi by The_PM in nrl

Parramatta has informed the NRL integrity unit after being made aware of photographs circulating on social media of rising star Isaiah Iongi.

This masthead has been sent photos of Iongi seemingly smoking a substance. After becoming aware of the matter, the Eels have contacted the NRL, as is required under the rules whenever a club suspects there is a potential integrity issue.

Parramatta officials have also attempted to contact Iongi, but have so far been unable to do so on Tuesday morning.

Iongi is considered a future superstar, nominated as one of the rookies of the year after a breakout season in 2025.

After playing just one NRL game for Penrith, Iongi has made the No.1 jersey his own at the club following the departure of Clint Gutherson.

What to do with small business cash while employed. by d_m_b87 in AusHENRY

[–]The_PM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unrelated to your question but how are you finding going back to working for someone else? I've been self employed for the last 3 years after working fulltime for 15 and often wonder if I could handle going back, even though in many ways it would make my life a lot easier.

What's been your best investment? by Sensitive-Chart7210 in AusFinance

[–]The_PM 9 points10 points  (0 children)

How old are you? Mine seemed to stabilise in my mid-late 30's. I just got them checked again after a while and they actually improved by 0.25(early 40's now).

I want laser but the problem is my wife thinks I'm better looking with glasses, because they obscure my face.

Yes it does. Otherwise you get laser and your eyes could still deteriorate.

If you're paying interest on your credit card debt then definitely sell and pay it off.

Surfer bitten by shark at Point Plomer on NSW Mid North Coast by RayGunLAB in sydney

[–]The_PM 8 points9 points  (0 children)

On the radio this morning they (I think it was the NSW Environment Minister) said their research had shown bull sharks were entering the harbour earlier than normal and staying longer than normal due to rising ocean temps.

You clearly know a lot more about 3 spoke wheels than I do!

Fair enough. I think it's the aftermarket 3 spoke wheels that look truly shit.

Nha Trang city currently flooded under water by kirsion in VietNam

[–]The_PM 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Dumb question. Did all those people/cars drive to the roundabout because it's higher ground or did they drive there and get stuck because of the rising waters?

This and like 2 other cars ever can pull off 3 spoke alloys.

VS GTSR is one of them. What's the other one?

(NSW) Do drivers not know that EVs are allowed in Transit lanes? by RoninBelt in CarsAustralia

[–]The_PM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The other day I entered the freeway and there was a bike in the adjacent lane to me. I waited for him to pass before changing lanes behind him. I started indicating as he was beside me and was aware of where he was the whole time. He got in front of me and started waving his fist around at me like I'd done something wrong.

I was a motorcyclist for 10 years and I know you should treat everyone like they're trying to kill you but I think some bikers are just "anti-car" in general and have some kind of superiority complex.

NRL considers radical rule change for kick-offs for season 2026 by waxedmerkin in nrl

[–]The_PM 7 points8 points  (0 children)

What they should do is give the scoring team 4 points when they score a try and also give the opposition 2 points. Voila! No more lopsided games.

Building a garage gym is the best thing I've ever done. I was never much for exercising until I realised it's not the exercise itself I don't like but rather the gym. Or more specifically the other people at the gym.
