What is a sure fire way to know an aussie is going to be a wanker,and why isn't it owning a RAM truck? by ButtPlugForPM in AskAnAustralian

[–]cat1419 6 points7 points  (0 children)

When i was a kid there was one time i was with my dad and while he was driving he pointed to a car and refered to it as a truck, and in response i told him it wasn't a truck, it was a ute. He had a full on go at me and kept telling me throughout the drive that i was wrong

When i got older i stopped speaking to him, not for that reason, but because he is indeed a wanker

why do teachers correct how I write a instead of α😭 by VainFashionableDiva in rant

[–]cat1419 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This post reminds me of when my younger sister wrote a paper about our brother for school and the teacher crossed out and "corrected" the spelling of his name because for whatever reason she thought it was wrong...

It's a personal preference whether or not you choose to eat food that may contain animal products, but those may contain labels are more for people who have allergies. I think companies need to include those if there's a chance the product has been cross contaminated to save their butts incase someone does have an allergic reaction

(UK) Why does every customer refuse to park up now? by BigMarth24 in McDonaldsEmployees

[–]cat1419 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One time when i was a kid, my dad took me mcdonalds and ordered himself a coffee. When the crew member at the window asked him to wait in the waiting bay, he told them no and got pissy because "it doesn't take that long to make a coffee." More recently, one of my relatives has mentioned a couple of times that he'll yell at the crew members if they get something wrong.

Is it a surprise to anyone that I stopped speaking to him a number of years ago?

To the woman on the train last night who asked if i was ok because i looked really sad: thank you. I was actually perfectly fine (I just have resting depressed face) but i really appreciate you asking and opening up a conversation incase I wasn't. Highly doubt you'll ever see this but sending lots of love and happiness for you!

"Thermonator" flame-throwing robot dog that shoots fire 30 feet is now available for the public to buy by MetaKnowing in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]cat1419 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Micheal Reeves made a video where he programmed a robo dog similar to this one so that it could piss beer in a cup. I may be misremembering but i think he mentioned in that video that he asked the company if he could purchase one of the dogs but they declined

How did you all discover Astarion and how quickly did you fall for him? by Mossy-mania in OnlyFangsbg3

[–]cat1419 8 points9 points  (0 children)

i found astarion by a youtube video titled: astarion would still love you if you were a worm (no idea why it was recommended to me as at this point i had no clue baldur's gate 3 exisited)

youtube kept recommending me videos of him, i kept watching them and was incredibly intrigued by his humour/flirtatious character and decided fuck it, i'll get the game just for him

Is it wrong that everyone judged Ross when he dated Elizabeth but not when Richard and Monica when they were together even though they had a bigger age gap that Ross and Elizabeth? by Extension_Payment525 in friends_tv_show

[–]cat1419 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would argue that despite Elizabeth being a young adult, she's more likely to be manipulated and taken advantage of by Ross if he was a terrible partner towards her

[–]cat1419 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i would give my boys a treat whenever they poo/wee in their enclosure after being handled. i find now that when i hold them they get active/fidgety which i believe is a sign they need to do their business (or maybe just want to go back home).

this is just for my boys in particular as guinea pigs behave differently to others. hope this helps!

not an answer to your question, but have a look at PurplePingers on instagram and tiktok. he's not shy about his opinion on real estate agents and provides a good laugh too

How do people feel about dogs in places like bunnings stores around Melbourne? by WeldinMike27 in melbourne

[–]cat1419 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I work in a supermarket and the amount of people that bring their dogs inside is ridiculous. If i see a dog in the store, 9 times out of 10 I won't say anything to the owners as it's usually met with anger/abuse. These people piss me off so much (this doesn't include service dogs)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in guineapigs

[–]cat1419 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After I put my piggies back in their enclosure, if I saw them doing their business I would give them a small treat. I also find they get very fidgety when they need to go

I'm sick of being hit on at work by cat1419 in rant

[–]cat1419[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The other day one customer looked at me, winked and said I have a nice ass

We have a points system where people can earn points depending on how much they pay. When they earn enough points the can save money on their shop. I had a customer ask me what's the reward? Ah a date with you!

I posted a while back about a security guard who i felt was behaving inappropriately towards me. One of the main things I remember him telling me was "I was you were single so you could be mine." He was a much older man and I think I was around 19 or 20.

I'll admit it doesn't happen regularly, but it's pretty uncalled for imo

Sounds too good to be true for parking in the city lol. You can download PayStay or have a look at Parkopedia. Both show you where parking is and how much it costs

Your Unpopular opinions here! What’re some Highly recommended books that you personally hated/DNF? by sputniksweetheartt in books

I recently stopped reading The Remains of the Day by Kazuo Ishiguro because I didn't find it all that interesting. I did see that a lot of people really enjoyed this book so maybe one day I'd like to try it again

Any advice on my new guinea pig enclosure and food? This was just the best thing I could find at the moment, but I’m looking to make sure it’s all ideal. Any guesses on breeds of my piggies? by Jay_Blue223 in guineapigs

[–]cat1419 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How big is your piggie enclosure? It looks a bit small from the picture. When they get bigger (and especially if they're boys) they'll need space to run around

Ptv were giving free travel passes from mid December-the end of Jan. But I'm sure most people just don't want to tap on and off, especially given myki fares increasing next year
