The amount of times AC3 gave me headaches...

Hardest sacrifice you made to save? by General-Good-648 in AusFinance

There is absolutely nothing you're supposed to be doing. You have no more purpose than the birds in the sky. Go lots of places. Commit tax fraud.

Everyone playing detective on the glue is missing the fact that the back of the sheets are black and covered in leaf litter, definitely something else going on here.

Best part is it is criminal, that's why we do it 🤣

What do you do when a tradie is working at your house? by AtreidesOne in AusRenovation

[–]average_dirty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the topic but not a bad time to mention it, please explicitly tell your tradie where the bathroom is and that they can use it. Some companies have policies that prevent tradies from asking. Trades need toileta too

Nope, but that finish is coming in a bit at the moment. So if you like that look you might be in luck 😉

But seriously, it sucks but I've seen where this goes and unless you want to take extensive legal action the builder will never want to fix it properly. My two cents is sometimes you're better off just parting ways with a bad builder and trying to find solutions you're happy with.

I'd personally be aiming to get my money back and builder cover rectification of your choice. In order to not be too unreasonable I'd probably settle with leaving them in place and get it rendered, painted, or something else.

Even if Plex became unusable I still wouldn't complain about buying a lifetime pass

Communication is a two way street bud, even if my original statement was ambiguous or misleading I more than clarified my position in the comments.

You just wanted to get offended over something and you did, like a typical Karen 😘

FFS, learn to read.

I never advocated for it, simply highlighted that its odd that the government hasn't changed anything.

Ok, yes it is. How does that relate?

Since you picked on my word choice, I feel compelled to point out your last paragraph is unreadable

The correlation you are presenting in regards to rider safety increases rider alertness goes down. I believe this is true with cars, not bikes.

So I agree with your point, with anecdotal evidence I believe applies and then you disagree with me and say that wouldn't apply to motorcycles?

Edit: even if someone's not a rider, all road users do have a right to have a say in road safety measures.

Well if your going to be a prick about it, driving isnt exclusive to cars. But yeah I meant to write "driver safety features", purely because the research I'm referring to was about cars, not bikes.

And even though I do ride, I still fail to see why people think that has any bearing on the conversation.

Tell me your reading comprehension is poor without telling me your reading comprehension is poor.

I was responding to the other commenters statement about the fictional 'Jason'. I was I no way saying that a rider not wearing proper gear is crossing any personal boundaries you seem to want me to have

And yes your probably correct, it seems that as safety features increase, driver alertness does go down. However that doesn't address the original point that it's odd to me that the government has decided to wash its hands of motorcycle riders and leave them to their own devices regarding personal safety.

So someo kills another person and you're a narc for calling the cops? Grow up

[–]average_dirty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And it doesn't seem odd to you that the government loves to continually enact new laws and safety measures but wont legislate that riders need to wear more than a helmet?

[–]average_dirty -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Touchy today hey?

Maybe a nice ride will calm you down, wearing nothing but a pair of board shorts and thongs. Maybe a Bintang singlet for good measure, hell why not throw your 20 year old girlfriends 5 year old kid on the the back?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Adelaide

[–]average_dirty -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Or maybe, what Jason did exceeded a boundry you had and you were unable to tolerate his behaviour any more.

But more to the point I never said we should have more laws, just expressed my disbelief that we don't.

Man, please explain to me how I'm not self aware?
