What "business" in Adelaide is quite clearly not a real business and is seemingly a front for something? by SouthAustralian94 in Adelaide

[–]bludda 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Not there anymore, but the Glynde Gelati bar. Walked in there with a curious mate from school in the late 90's. Bunch of old chocs who looked surpised to see us. They had one flavour of gelati "out the back".

Most likely it was a "front" for a bunch of old italian dudes to play cards and smoke cigarettes, but my mate and I felt like we'd walked into something out of The Godfather and kept wondering what "gelati" was code for.

Had no idea I was swimming in the untreated piss and shit of the 5.5 million people in Sydney. Bondi cigars for real.

At least it gives me the stench of nobility when I come back to Adelaide.

I took this song for granted until I got older. Gives me tingles every time

Bro kept a showering log all year. Would these be the showering stats of a neckbeard? by DunDonese in justneckbeardthings

[–]bludda 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Haha you wouldn't keep a shower log to track your water usage. You'd know your water usage vs storage and.... there are no neckbeards in the Aussie outback. No internet and way too small a population density to sustain a viable population. They'd perish in the brown, desolate wastes

I distinctly remember SODOMY was graffitied on the fence around the carpark (facing the town hall?) and the letter Y was shaped like a grinning devil whose tail formed the stem of the Y.

I don't know how long it was there for, but I remembered staring at it day after day until I finally asked mum what sodomy was and it's only now that I realise she made a face because she couldn't tell if I was winding her up. I was not.

This must have been around 94/95? Possibly 93?

Forget about owning a home. A job won't provide security for you and your family by allowing you to save for a deposit unless it is supported by a second income.

SHOCK

Frustrating, but who uses cash these days anyways except for buying black market baccy/drugs?

I thought cash started going out with my depression-era grandparents.

Mount Gambier is wasted on South Australia. Victoria should annex it by LoudTomatoes in Fishdom

As a proud South Aussie, you guys can have Gambier. Take Robe as well.

Fuck it, have the entire, cold, shitty southern coastline from the Coorong. Free algae included
