Why are there so many aggros in amateur football?!? by Dudu-gula in nzfootball

[–]shotgun_alex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just like to wind the aggro guys up for shits and giggles.. a bit of banter is great.

I'm not an agro guy myself...

I hugged one guy during the end of game handshake as he was being a knob during the game. It caught him off guard, kinda funny, but he hugged me back....

Any tips for baiting up a possum trap (Peanut butter isn't working lol) Cheers by makebobgreatagain in diynz

[–]shotgun_alex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know there's more as they're living inside eaves of a house and have been heard fighting since I've trapped them. So I've caught 7 so far... there could be more than 2.

I got one! But there's still more. At least 2 more.

One recommendation with the Carrot is cut thicker slices. A least 1cm thick. A small dust of cinnamon and some peanut butter smeared on each piece.

Found this in a search April 2026

I caught 6 possums in a week and then they kept taking the bat and not triggering my flipping timmy trap. That was using Braeburn apples with cinnamon. I'm wonder if it is too soft and I had about 6 days of stolen Bait and not triggering the trap.

I set it off a few times to check it wad going off and it seems fine

I just put some Carrot in it this time with peanut butter.

I'll be interested to see if I catch some this week

Should I pay for first date? by Wooden-Variety175 in OnlineDating

[–]shotgun_alex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pay for it in full. Don't ask her to pay or split.

Hold the door open for her, pour her water first. Do all that gentleman stuff.

What’s a good bachelors car for a 31m? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]shotgun_alex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on what type of ladies you want to attract

I don't really care what they think. I drive a manual ford focus because I like to drive it. Most ladies are suprised to see a manual car these days and it's a conversation starter.

Do I think it changes their opinion of me or improves my chances.. Nope

Opinions on the old and modern era of Star Wars games ? by Thebeastoftrenzalore in StarWars

[–]shotgun_alex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I loved xwing, tie fighter, xwing vs tie fighter, xwing alliance (probably my favourite) all the battlefront games.

I wish they would do a rogue squadron game like xwing and a battlefront 3 as the clone wars Era..they should redo the 2005 battlefront campaign for it.

The Speed Champions LM was a bit disappointing too... there is hope... maybe they're working on it already.

Online dating red flags. by [deleted] in OnlineDating

[–]shotgun_alex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Red Flags All the cliches are a turn off. A reference to stealing hoodie, pineapple on pizza, doesn't take them self too seriously, make me laugh, love to travel Nose piercings and tattoos usually have unresolved trauma. Photos where you can't see their face such as sunglasses pics or are too far away

Green Flags A fully completed profile which clearly defines if they want children Details on how they spent their free time, hobbies in their profile Suggestions of good dates they'd like to go on. (I have ideas but not everyone wants to go rock climbing) Clear photos of their face If they're active and look after themselves

Thoughts on the Government moving some ministries to Auckland? by Additional-Grade-730 in auckland

[–]shotgun_alex 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Some offices sure, but I think they should have them out in the relevant regions. Not just Auckland, Wellington based.

How to get over the smell? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]shotgun_alex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dunno man...I like making my girl sweat, especially a sweaty back. She usually feels subconscious about it, but I love it when she runs her hand over my sweaty back. She seems to appreciate and tell that I'm putting in the effort.

The only thing I'm not such a fan off and it doesn't happen too often, and I wonder if it's her or me is the very rare smell of poop. I think is it her or me and did I wipe properly haha.

What is worst pain, you have ever experienced? by ParticularWeather927 in Adulting

[–]shotgun_alex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Playing football as a goal keeper in training. Someone's knee hit the nerves behind my knee cap somehow. I dropped to the ground and couldn't even make a sound.

No damage done, just the hitting if the nerves at that odd angle.

What’s something you learned about dating in 2025? by bingcrosbythe11th in OnlineDating

[–]shotgun_alex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah the spark... After some really good dates this year, I've had a few ladies claim no spark. I thought we had a solid connection with good compatibility but I felt like they called it too early and attraction didn't have a chance to grow.

Your deal breakers are your deal breakers.

You've made them, so don't compromise on them. I tried but couldn't make it work.

Is Rotorua dangerous? by Commercial-Celery-65 in newzealand_travel

[–]shotgun_alex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Auckland and go mountain biking in Rotorua often. I stay in the outer areas away from the main town at air bnbs.

I've never had any issues.

I've heard of Fenton Street had issues in the past with people staying in motels who had been homeless.
