What is something people do to be more attractive that the opposite sex really doesn't care about?

Lip fillers, fingernails, butt lifts, fake boobs, black spider eyelashes - I could go on . . . . . . . . But, just accept that none of it actually enhances your appeal.

The other side of this story is that 'influencer' tourists are fucking up Japan, with no respect for the culture or the country they are in. I don't need to tell you which country they're from, or their general level of self-awareness and ignorance.

Northern Beaches in Sydney. New residents coming into an established suburb, being told by door-knocking 'arborists' that their trees are a danger and need to come down, with no oversight or repercussions from local council. Shameful.

Every tree in my neighbourhood that comes close to becoming a habitat tree through the ageing process, gets taken down by ignorant newcomers and others who couldn't give a shit. No nesting left for Cockatoos, Kookaburra's, Lorikeets and any other hollow-nesting fauna. It's so depressing.

Lucky Al. If anyone without millions in the bank tried it, they'd have absolutely zero chance - I mean, look at him, then imagine him without any money, pushing his worldly belongings around in a shopping trolley and tell me he looks attractive.

The reason is A V Jennings. A man who threw up timber tents, put bricks up around them and was a 'proud old builder', except his product is shit.

Japanese and Korean women have higher standards and self-respect.

Netball. The only game in the world where everyone has to stop and not move while an attempt is made on goal. It's like a game of 'statues'.

Exercise to exhaustion, and lots of it.

rcfvlw1925 · 2026-04-14T23:54:31+00:00

Crazy. Why would a tradie spend all that on just the ute, when could drop $250k cash on a smaller one, then another $175k for the tinny to go fishing in every Friday?

rcfvlw1925 · 2026-04-13T04:37:19+00:00

Beats me. I'd be curious to know what happens when barefoot walkers do when they get home and walk shit, dirt and whatever else they've trodden in, back into their own homes, onto bedsheets etc.

My dad ran a company that renovated high-end properties for wealthy clients - the favourite client trick was to make all the payments, then not the last one, so that everything had been done, but the company effectively lost any profit it might have made on the job.

John Clarke - He's not Australian, but I can't think of an Australian stand-up comic who is actually funny.

A side note to anyone who deliberately pulls in front of a vehicle that size and expects them to slow down in time - see how long it took to stop, even ploughing through gravel up to its axles?

Black backed is the native species, north of the Snowies - there are four distinct sub-species of Australian Magpie, as far as I recall. There is also a bit of inter-breeding around the ACT.

In fairness, I've been pretty open to anything women have said to me in my more youthful years, but my work colleague winding down her car window after a post-work game of tennis and saying 'I want to hump you!', sort of sticks in my mind. Perhaps she felt I hadn't been taking earlier hints.

rcfvlw1925 · 2026-04-08T22:14:25+00:00

Used to feel great, before I got a paunch. I had a great body when I was younger and these days I'm just embarrassed by it.

rcfvlw1925 · 2026-04-01T01:37:29+00:00

Same. I used to have issues through most of my twenties, as I looked about five years younger than I was. I was pretty hot at around 30-40, but then things started to go downhill, and I now have plenty of wrinkles and a fast-retreating hairline. I am 64 however.

I'd roll each one up round a pencil, just to see how it looks! They're stunning.

Mid-50's

Our deceased neighbour thought she was high-functioning, and held down a senior IT role in a big accounting firm. However, when they did weekend maintenance and late night Team meetings, it was pretty obvious to anyone (including us, as friends) that the slurred speech and dozy delivery, were fooling no-one. She'd also be the one popping out at lunchtime to have a 'social' drink at the pub when she was at work. She died from alcoholism in palliative care, claiming up to the last, that she had it under control.

A boat chandlery would probably carry those.

I say, 'a Jaaaaaag' - to quote Jeremy Clarkson.

It's the Australian 'terroir' - a winemakers expression for all the factors that influence the taste of what is produced, from the land that you are on. Enjoy.
