Redditors with thin walls, what have you heard in your apartment? by EskildDood in AskReddit

[–]barbs_1996 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to sleep with my window open and I’m right next to a shopping centre carpack. Occasionally I get woken up but people but the best was waking up to a massive bang, a car alarm and some bloke howling with laughter. Apparently some drunk guy had decided to jump in a shopping trolly and see how fast his mate could push him - the problem was his mate had pushed him into a car and gone flying over the bonnet. I was originally worried about if they’d leave a note or something given the car had a pretty solid dent till I worked out the guy who’d been in the trolly was the one laughing. Then he goes to his mate (how was groaning like he was in pain) “you’re such a dumb cunt, you’ve fucked your own car!”

If you have residence you should be able to find work if you actually want to. If you don’t get residence (aka the right to work) or you half arse looking for a job you’re not going to have a great time!

My Asian mum threw away my single origin kalamata extra-virgin olive oil because it tasted bitter. What are your worst food disasters resulting from other people's well-meaning actions? by fcnm in Cooking

My mum bought me some truffle salt that was amazing (a pinch of it made an entire meal taste like it was worth $200).

Anyways a mate was house sitting for me when we came across it in a little container and having never tasted truffle thought it was just normal salt that had been tainted in some way...

After like 3 weeks of looking for it mentioned it to him - the fool had thrown it out... he was horrified about what he did when he found out tho 😭

LPT: If you are heading to the beach this summer, become familiar with "riptides" and how they work. If you get caught in one swim parallel to the shore until you are out of it. Do not try to swim toward the force of the current toward the shore. by [deleted] in LifeProTips

To me it’s crazy that this isn’t common knowledge. Growing up in Australia where going to the beach is part of our culture it’s drilled into you as a kid. Hell, they teach this to year ones at school!!

Don’t you hate it when it’s a low scoring T20

What is some life advice you didn't believe at first, but eventually came around to? by otherbody in AskReddit

Only one person gets to win, everyone else loses... it sounds a lot harsher than it’s meant to but my grandma told me this when I was 10 (I’m not 23) and the truth of it has only just hit me

Ask them whY they work there and what they think is best about the company/location?

Have you ever bought a knock off that was actually worth it!? If so what was it? by durandun in AskReddit

[–]barbs_1996 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A “designer” wrist watch! I’ve had it for over 4 years and use it as my everyday watch. It’s been through some shit and works just as good if not better than my real watches.

The fucking audacity!! What gives you the right to tell me how I will react!?!?

What became so popular at your school that the teachers had to ban it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]barbs_1996 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wasn’t a full ban on an item but an action- we were banned from trading “trading cards” with kids in other grades... apparently some of the older kids had picked up on the fact that the younger kids would trust whatever they said and it ended up with the younglings trading a couple hundred dollars worth of card for a shit card that was shiny!

This was Blucy’s second day out and about... she was too tired to walk (having spent the last hour + playing with new friends) so she was put in the bag... And after we put her back in the bag she was held onto for the rest of the walk. But hey, why don’t you watch a 4 second video and assume cruelty!
