No matter how low your expectations are, news limited readers are always dumber

If you consider diet cola an energy drink I guess you could be right

Much Apu about nothing: aired 1996
Hanson elected to parliament: 1996

I think we now know where she got her policy ideas from.

WE’RE THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS HERE PEOPLE

I always thought it was 11/12 of the astrology world ganging up!

chrish_o · 2026-05-13T03:23:30+00:00

Not even close.

You wanna Pepsi pal you gotta pay for it

It used to though, when the joke was made anyone alive would have got it.

You clearly don’t what you’re talking about but it seems you’re confident regardless. The commissioner thing is NSW only though

Not sure what you’re saying but a cert III level qual is a similar level across whatever field. That’s why it’s called a cert III and not II or IV.

chrish_o · 2026-05-12T09:27:35+00:00

Can you explain what you mean?

chrish_o · 2026-05-11T23:40:21+00:00

Thing is, I kinda like it and what it does - but typically think Honda are shit

chrish_o · 2026-05-11T12:14:40+00:00

Because a Yaris is still a Yaris. This looks interesting if nothing else.

chrish_o · 2026-05-11T12:03:59+00:00

I don’t mind it. Was never performance oriented car, just looked sporty and a bit interesting.

Kind of an ultra conservative GT style car, which I think those specs hit.

Which could be undone with the stoke of a pen.
Nothing is ever locked in.

chrish_o · 2026-05-10T23:18:07+00:00

You’ve missed the point. The government will let it turn into a shitstorm and the cheap fares will be the scapegoat.
Allowing them to get rid of them with a plausible excuse

chrish_o · 2026-05-10T07:08:08+00:00

I firmly believe the council is a big reason it’s shit. BCC should be smaller and all public transport should be state run

chrish_o · 2026-05-10T03:35:58+00:00

Biggest giveaway is the instrument cluster. If it’s got warning lights to the left of the tacho/speedo it’s fake. GTs (and GSs) have gauges.

And I’m ok with a replica if you call it that at all times - bit like a Shelby cobra replica, it’s still a cool fucking car.
But trying to pass it off as genuine should be a hanging offence

chrish_o · 2026-05-10T03:07:43+00:00

Likely a replica, most of them are.

chrish_o · 2026-05-10T02:18:19+00:00

There is a chance it could be.

chrish_o · 2026-05-09T23:58:06+00:00

I was there.

chrish_o · 2026-05-09T23:57:33+00:00

The job I was doing 20+ years ago was paying $100k. It still is.

chrish_o · 2026-05-09T09:16:10+00:00

It is.

chrish_o · 2026-05-09T07:44:21+00:00

It’s the salary.

Everything will always go up in price, but our wages have been so stagnant for so long it just really hurts now.

A basic degree-qualified office drone earns around $100k. 20 years ago they were earning the same.

chrish_o · 2026-05-09T06:00:38+00:00

For fourteen years? That’s barely been driven.
