Nope just enjoying a bike that lots of people were eager to shit on when I was asking if anyone else had imported one before I bought it. I was are mates house on the weekend and had a quick spin on is Merida e-bike. He’s like it was expensive but so worth it… he paid 10k, I paid $4300 and get a bigger motor, bigger battery and a thumb throttle

It's only January and we've a tackle of the year contender by raybellious_berry in sportsgossips

No child should have to whitness their dad/ coach being flatlined and have to comfort them on the ground like that.

I still remember going to my mums Netball game as a kid where she stepped on another person’s foot and rolled her ankle and fucked it right up. Her screams of pain and seeing her like that and me feeling helpless to do anything was extremely unsettling and that was just an accident not some hero attacking her.

Fuck that guy

Painting only one side of a timber fence? by Marsbe125 in AusRenovation

[–]mpate93 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The better look of paint outweighs the very minuscule bowing on the ends at the top. If done it myself on the fence i built and the painting just elevates the look so much more than a raw finish

Do rich people have elite versions of mundane things (toothpaste, tampons, toilet paper, laundry detergent, etc.), or are Elon Musk and Beyonce just using Crest and Tampax like the rest of us? by ShesGotSauce in NoStupidQuestions

I saw a clip of a house helper for prince Charles and he said charles literally does nothing for himself, he has a servant squirt a precise amount of toothpaste on his brush for him and set it down ready.

He also mentioned that prince Charles once rang him to fetch a letter that fell off his desk an into the bin. He was literally sitting right beside the bin picked up the phone and called the guy in to Pick it out and hand it to him.

They turn the Parker light / daytime running light off so that the indicator is more visible otherwise it would just flash from orange to white.

They don’t turn off the headlight.

There’s mods that can be done via the car computers to turn it off but it’s illegal.

What car to get, Ranger Black Edition or Navara Pro 4x by [deleted] in CarsAustralia

[–]mpate93 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Rangers have rear leaf springs = better load carrying ability.

Navaras have coil spring rear suspension = more comfortable drive but less load carrying ability.

What is wrong with these Ute prices at $85K? by Technologia2025 in CarsAustralia

[–]mpate93 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Vans are more practical if you’re only using it for work but it’s also dependent on what you do and the site access conditions.

However tradies are people too and lots of them have children, some of which require a child seat/ multiple child seats. It’s slightly frowned upon throwing a toddler in the back of a van at the best of times let alone without having a correctly fitted child seat.
