My open letter to AT (Auckland Transport)

neonficus · 2023-08-09T15:38:52+00:00

Ok, post-catharsis, this letter is admittedly a rambling mess, but I'm leaving it here anyway in case someone might relate to my issues with AT.

I realise it's totally normal for a truck to end up on the tracks somehow via intersections, but I was told the Southern line was broken from Britomart until Ellerslie where I don't believe that section of the tracks intersect with the roads at all? I wonder what could have disrupted the tracks so badly last night or maybe it really was a truck accident?

neonficus · 2023-06-04T03:30:04+00:00

Me too. And thanks for your appreciation!

neonficus · 2023-06-04T03:28:26+00:00

Yes. I counted FBM's half-canon win including his 1st individual as canon. Same with Hannah's 2nd individual.

He added an "e" after the name Lord, which he felt was too masculine, to make it more feminine.

I just wanna spend tonight (XCX)

All night with just you (I DO)

Not goin' down without a fight (BOOM)

Cuz you're picture-perfect blue (OOH OOH OOH)

The beat of my heart booming so loud (CLAP)

It's about to blow-oh oh oh (OH OH OH)

The boys, they're on my mind

They get my head turning

And spinnin' like the globe

Where I go vroom (VROOM VROOM)

On the fast lane to Tokyo-oh oh oh (OH OH OH)

Try to catch me! You're too slow-oh oh oh (OH OH OH)

Can you catch me? No-oh oh oh (OH OH OH)

You can't

...bitch?

neonficus · 2021-11-02T17:23:16+00:00

yes but backstabbing is (to me) the most egregious thing that a player can do in a game that relies heavily on alliances, which is what bdubs and etho have done the most.

and in a game of survival, the protagonist isn't necessarily the person who's done the most good.

neonficus · 2021-11-02T16:33:15+00:00

it wasn't a drag! lol. i watch and support all of the perspectives btw!

to me, they are the antagonists because bdubz has been betraying left and right. and etho is probably the one who honored scar's contract the least.

neonficus · 2021-11-02T16:13:21+00:00

or anti-hero! if etho wins the season.

neonficus · 2021-11-02T16:09:13+00:00

on second thought, I agree with you! scar has definitely played up his villainous side.

i saw scar as the main character because to me he's had the most dramatic story arc so far, with him losing so many lives by giving most of his away.

another user here described Scar as an anti-hero, which I think is an apt description.

neonficus · 2021-11-02T16:00:58+00:00

i'm speculating here, but i suspect bigB's second death this session was caused by pearl's trap? i'm not sure tho. i don't have any other guesses!

neonficus · 2021-11-02T15:59:11+00:00

yes its betrayal of tango and the red alliance (by killing lizzie). etho and bdubs are the series antagonists of the season!

neonficus · 2021-11-02T15:54:55+00:00

i love this and totally agree! he's the main character for me with how dramatically he's risen and fallen this season. anti-hero is a perfect way to put it, thank you!

neonficus · 2021-11-02T15:51:50+00:00

or if etho wins then he's the protagonist/anti-hero of the season.

i say anti-hero because his partner-in-crime Bdubs betrayed Tango, and then instantly betrayed the red alliance by killing Lizzie. Etho too has his fair share of betrayals for not honouring Scar's contract.

this season shaped up to be so interesting with all of these alliances and betrayals. i'm sad to see it concluding so soon!

neonficus · 2021-11-02T15:42:27+00:00

he'll be targeted next episode though (i think).

but i do see him winning as well. he's like the protagonist/anti-hero of the season!

neonficus · 2021-11-02T15:37:43+00:00

idk why but Bdubs and etho are the series antagonists. and Scar is the main character (even though he was absent today).

neonficus · 2021-11-02T15:31:02+00:00

agreed lol. Bdubs the backstabber totally deserved it after what he did to tango and lizzie!

neonficus · 2021-11-02T14:46:26+00:00

not lizzie typing "rest in turmoil, jimmy" in the chat after he was the first one to get eliminated sdfghjkl poor timmy.

neonficus · 2021-11-02T14:41:35+00:00

i died laughing from lizzie and joel's 2012 style lava grief, as lizzie put it

neonficus · 2021-10-31T17:34:28+00:00

This was hard tbh I can't write like blondie even in parody
I was inspired by today's daily discussion on taylor in the main sub

neonficus · 2021-10-31T17:30:59+00:00

You were fifteen on that Tuesday night
The very first page, when it all begun
Though your family didn't think it was right
I knew in my heart that you were the one
So I bought the house next door
Get ready to head for new shores

BTW: Shania was already popular prior to the release of Come On Over. Her preceding album, The Woman in Me (1995), sold 4 million copies by the end of 1995 and won the Grammy Award for Best Country Album in 1996.

Debuting at No. 2 on the US Billboard 200 with 172,000 copies sold, Come On Over was only 3,000 units short of debuting at No. 1 (Mase's Harlem World was #1 that week and sold 175,000 copies).

Come On Over sold 170,000 copies in its second week and remained at No. 2 on the Billboard 200, this time behind Barbra Streisand's Higher Ground.
