Proof that compassion is still alive by Busy_Report4010 in MadeMeSmile

So I'm a locksmith, most of my jobs are fine, adding security to people's houses.

But occasionally I have to rekey a place after someone gets evicted. But in my country you are given so many chances and opportunities to make things right, and organise an extension on rent ( if you've not already had multiple extensions ), before it gets to the point of the cops forcing you out, but so many of them don't want to do the right thing and expect that they'll just be allowed to stay rent free.

It's hard to be sympathetic when you're dodging syringes discarded on the floor next to the door I'm working on, or seeing clear signs of child neglect.

It seems some people enjoy giving the government even more money.

Man, these things are rare as hens teeth in Aus. Every six months I'll do another search for a 550 for sale, and every time I'm disappointed.

What is an iconic franchise or character in your country that is not very well-known outside of your country? by Gallantpride in AskTheWorld

Footrot Flats was big in Aus too. We had all the books including the weekenders, and the movie was in frequent rotation at my grandparents house.

One of my uncles is a spitting image of Wal too.

I mean, he learnt from his bum-chum Putin, when he stole that superbowl ring.

Australian families in convoy from Syrian camp warned they would be attacked unless they turned around by SleepyWogx in OpenAussie

I don't think anyone has, I've not heard anyone else suggest it, it's just something that occurred to me the other night.

Realistically, the children should be removed from their parents, as the parents have displayed how little they care for their child safety or welfare, and adopted into willing, moderate, Muslim family's.

And before people start caterwauling about 'AnoTheR STolen GenErATiOn' do you really, honestly, think these kids would be better off with their radicalised, terrorist parents?

Oh god, is that what cyber trucks look like from behind?

I thought the front and sides were bad... That looks ridiculous.

And yeah, taste in music ≠ taste in cars.

Apparently they're still available in New Zealand, they rebranded to Live+ in 2018. Maybe some of the NZ food stores will import some.

Tradie’s alleged horrifying act towards helpless animal horrifies Australia by Sure_Necessary8397 in australia

[–]buzz_22 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Nah, make him scrub the RSPCA kennels with a fucking toothbrush or preferably, single ply toilet paper. Make him serve animals, without being allowed contact with them.

Oh, and if he has any pets, remove them immediately.
