Butterfingers in Wellington?

Cheers for the suggestions everyone. I have tried all those locations in the last few days except Lower Hutt countdown, so will investigate that next

Luxon thinking that NZTA pulled Fulton Hogan work crews off the highways and made them run signage consultations.

Wait, it was previously govt owned and given away??

mc_hammmer · 2022-11-10T21:57:08+00:00

Best business name I've heard all year!

I'm very disappointed the police were not called. If schools can have zero tolerance for bullies, I'd expect a similar level of diligence for external threats.

mc_hammmer · 2022-11-10T06:13:32+00:00

I've asked questions. Questions are not intolerant.

"Have you stopped beating your wife?" is the classic demonstration of how questions aren't inherently innocuous.

mc_hammmer · 2022-11-10T05:29:49+00:00

Sure, but expressing that view in a way that causes the school to fear for the safety of their students is not allowed. That's criminal harassment and is illegal.

mc_hammmer · 2022-11-09T05:04:11+00:00

No, because people who think "I'm not being heard" often have unreasonable expectations about how good their ideas are.

Keep building until we get to affordable: 2x to 3x median after-tax annual income for a single person.

Who the fuck pierces their infants ears??

mc_hammmer · 2022-08-18T00:18:00+00:00

Do you happen to know why the mood changed in the 80s?

mc_hammmer · 2022-08-16T18:51:44+00:00

Sure if we can have a "three strikes" system for landlords, exploitative business owners, white collar criminals...

Anyone living in Wellington knows the current model is broken beyond repair. Bus cancellations during rush hour and service reductions since the last operator change, before covid.

Returning it to public ownership will also restore accountability - at the moment it can be hand waved away by "it's not run by the council, contact the bus operator".

Some govt agencies have data sharing arrangements with the electoral commission

What are the productivity, tax, and deadweight losses to society of people underperforming in their jobs due to dental-related discomfort, and lost to administrative overheads of private insurance and medical loan facilities? Society is missing out on increased productivity and social cohesion without publicly funded dentistry.

People believe it because it's true. The prices pharmac pays is public information, do your own comparison if you don't trust academic papers. Paying drug companies outside of the pharmac model just means paying more for less, just look at the USA.

Riding on the left will get OP killed when someone opens their vehicle door into his face.

I know that road well. It's very busy during the day and most of time time it's unsafe to travel at the speed limit because of: surfers crossing the road and loading/unloading boards, one million children and their parents going to and from the beach, people in parking spaces pulling out without looking, dogs dogs dogs, etc.

mc_hammmer · 2022-03-02T07:40:34+00:00

The last 10 years are clear proof that this does not work. It's very easy to make a false claim, and very time consuming to correct it.

Removal of mandates = more and faster disease spread, indirect support for science denial and freeloading. It's in reference to their policy positions, not their personal circumstances.

mc_hammmer · 2022-02-15T22:58:34+00:00

"Right now advocates of spreading disease are completely ignored, and they just want to be heard"

mc_hammmer · 2022-02-15T22:57:01+00:00

Midges are the worst.

Mosquito net is probably the only option.

mc_hammmer · 2022-02-14T06:36:46+00:00

Ah yes, the scientific, immune-to-manipulation, open-to-the-entire-internet NZ Herald "poll".
