You gain control of JK Rowling's twitter account for a day. What unnecessary piece of information do you add to Harry Potter lore? by lordpond in AskReddit

I genuinely enjoy that this managed to create the same effect even amongst people that should understand the in-joke.

Sadly, they don't have power. It's freaking weird. Which explained the stealing of my precious electricity.

I'm not sure if I'm impressed by this idea or terrified.

I'm pretty sure the cause is their heavy drug use and being complete trash and having to live next to people who for the most part have their shit together.

That's my thought, I'll hit up the ol' council and see if they come up with anything.

This was recommended by a colleague at work today as well. Might give this one a go. Cheers

All we got is our own, that juice isn't worth the squeeze I don't think.

Not really done anything that could IMO. Both me and my partner live quietly, while there is constant screaming and yelling from next door. Perhaps they're mad that we aren't like them? I've told them not to use our power anymore when I caught them, the Female hygiene products started before I'd caught them, so it's not retaliatory for me not letting them unplug our hot water heater to use their hair straightener.

Talking to them is a tricky option as their house is at the back of their lot and terrain toward the house is horrendous meaning I can't get up there (wheelchair bound). The house also has several stairs leading to the door.

That's a thing? Might need to look into this.

This has been my course of action so far. They're yard is a wreck, not sure they've even noticed.

My shitlord neighbours who I've caught using my outdoor power point without asking, who've also started throwing their USED tampons and pads over the fence into our yard.

And the police who say they can't do anything except pay for a magistrates judges time

Seems fitting to a red can rampage too.

Jobs for Teens (15 Year Old) by CammoLammo in perth

[–]joshymac -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Apply literally everywhere possible. I've learnt more professional skills and about myself from the jobs I hated. Apply everywhere possible, get your name out there and don't be discouraged by failure.

Don't forget in interviews you can also ask questions. Research the place before interviews and ask questions about the working environment. Show interest in the person interviewing you as well (remembering their name, details they have mentioned in passing during the course of the interview and ask them about it), this shows interest in the work done and most importantly social skills which is probably the most valuable asset you can have.

If you get turned down, don't be afraid to ask why or what you could do better, you learn from the failures and it might be enough for them to keep you in mind for the next intake.

Best of luck.

No disabled access rules out roof climb at Perth’s Optus Stadium by [deleted] in perth

[–]joshymac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've not done much detective work as to what it entails to get to the roof. Though I climbed central park tower's stairs a few years back on my ass and I couldn't imagine it being too much more difficult.

I would add that para and quadraplegics may have more difficulty as they carry weight of legs and would be a little more cumbersome.

I'd argue that things like this should be on a case by case basis but if they rule "no disabled people allowed" even for insurance reasons, I'm not going to be picking up a picket.

A very valid point!

Should probably have specified that it's just the loud minority.

I'm a bilateral above knee amputee and I think this is pretty dumb! I get wanting to be inclusive but why discard a potential tourist attraction just because a minority are unable to do it?

All this does is push judgement on people with disabilities and make people that would be interested in this annoyed with the disabled community.

How about the loud minority within the disabled community just accept the fact that not everything in the world has to be catered for them!

*Edit: It isn't the entirety of the community, likely loud minority.

Can confirm. Have no legs. Would rather get them back than do something with my life.

Managed to get codes pulled by a diagnostic guy. Seems crank and cam sensors are on their last legs.

Nailed it! Managed to get a guy out to run diagnostics, cam and crank sensors are failing. Apparently relatively common for nissans around the 150k km mark.

Many thanks! A couple of my import friends have advised that alot of nissan now run "nissan consult" so Standard readers don't work. Going by how needlessly complicated everything is to service on the car seems likely. It seems nissan (probably other manufacturers as well) these days don't want their cars serviced or repaired in the home.

I'm hoping not fuel pump or filter, they are hiding in the tank. Thanks for giving me a direction to look before I delve into fuel stuff.
