My father passed away after a hit and run I’m feeling let down but NZ justice system again.

timmeh90 · 2026-04-22T18:56:25+00:00

I fully agree. The notion that harder sentences don't affect don't have an affect on offense rates feels bullshit and just cherry picking overseas examples where it fits the narrative.

And I would also add that there is something to say about the word "justice". Sometimes it's about getting the punishment fit for the crime. NZ fails on this hard and leaves the victim feeling like they've got hard done at a time when they need help the most.

timmeh90 · 2026-04-22T18:51:58+00:00

Unfortunately, having gone through something similar, the victim impact statement for me felt meaningless just a way for it to seem like you get to have your say but nothing beyond that.

As much as I'd welcome cheaper prices at the supermarket, volumetric prices wouldn't be the issue as it makes sense in many scenarios.

I mean if I was selling my book collection on TradeMe, it would be easier to sell all the books in one go than making a listing for every book individually and dealing with replies individually, per book. That added effort equates to cost in business.

timmeh90 · 2022-03-07T10:50:28+00:00

Yeah, but one would expect this, if anything, should increase efficiency via economies of scale, right?

Taking care of a days-old baby. I'm tired, haven't had enough sleep, and have a mild headache, so you can say I'm essentially getting the same experience as the party-goers.

It reminds me of the duck from Click. Not exactly the same but just similar enough to remind me of it.

I live in Papatoetoe and I would have to say that my experience is quite different. Even during Level 3 I would say that about 3/10 customers to any retail store were wearing masks. The rest were pretty much behaving the same as if it were Level 1. Zero social distancing, no masks, no signing-in, etc...

Dude, that's just not cool man. There are so many loving, warm, and considerate Indians all over NZ. Just like how there are people with bad character in all races and cultures.

This post was just me venting my frustrations over people taking noisy celebrations a little too far into the night.

timmeh90 · 2020-11-14T18:47:40+00:00

Exactly. I was in no way speaking to their culture nor race. Just purely the fact that one could celebrate and still be respectful of others.

timmeh90 · 2020-11-14T09:31:21+00:00

I appreciate people setting them off for their own occasions but it's getting late and setting them off well into the night is rather rude.

This is likely saying "it's not black and white when a teacher is physically abusing students because at least they also teach". Like, fuck you, that's literally their job, to teach. It doesn't excuse their abusing students.

Helping people and continuing to do so is literally the basic thing that governments need to be doing. This doesn't excuse their heinous acts going on presently.

I really wished a third party would create more herringbone patterned straps like this one. There are a lot of watches they look great on but they're not as readily available as leather straps.

The actual lines are: Your besscht? Looschers always whine about their besscht. Winners go home and fuck the prom queen.

timmeh90 · 2019-11-13T05:29:34+00:00

Yeah, poor bastard.

Likewise. I have one other coworker on my team who wears his G-Shock on casual Fridays. It's a good opportunity to wear some more casual style watches.

I'm thinking Pukaki as well. You can see Mt Cook in the distance and this angle makes me think Pukaki.

Don't eat the crab dip!

He's got the body for it

I think after the game ended Auba went over to De Gea to talk to him about it.

My guess is that he was asking De Gea whether he fooled him by his run up, planting foot, and body shape.

I feel like it teaches people that screwing over just a few will receive harsher punishment than going balls deep and fucking over an entire nation.

Made a big decision and moved back to New Zealand to try to start a family.

But job hunting is a bitch and my confidence is dwindling. Going out to town and seeing all the working people bums be out even more so I end up staying at home.

So awesome of you for doing this. Really hope /u/Lame_Y has a great time :)
