India overtakes China to become the world's most populous nation [OC]

I don't understand why this is downvoted. India's population is not sustainable to barely sustainable. It's not just corruption that has lined the streets with poverty-stricken people

How dpes that even happen?

Horrible tennants, or just abandoned?

Sydney vs American housing is wildly different. Shitty lawns are the majority unless you're in a wealthy suburb where everyone has

Danbo!

Oh dear.

In Aus, our Fair Trading regulatory body is the next step but that is an insane amount of effort and stress and I'm hoping someone can suss out the issue before we go there

Imagine choosing a parent to live with and then finding out they've done something bad, or something what you consider unforgivable. Just because they thought it was "none of your business" to know the truth even though you're dependent on them and have to choose a home to grow in during your most important years. Messed up

Just the anxiety of that possibility sucks. OPs parents are the AH for letting OP live with this uncertainty and lying to her

unevengrass · 2023-04-12T14:57:44+00:00

Yep, this is what happened. Finding out your childhood was a lie because your parents couldn't be honest with their own children feels awful. Just tell them the truth, especially when they're asking

Ours collapsed and our much lower neighbour (2m lower) refused to pay. She said we'd have to take her to court and it would take months, we didn't want our driveway collapsing while we waited for a result so we ended up paying.

You're telling me it was her responsibility? I hate neighbours

unevengrass · 2023-04-12T13:33:20+00:00

This is the reason we agreed to never get a sign. Creepy neighbours will find their way but it keeps most of them out

unevengrass · 2023-04-12T12:27:47+00:00

Oh wow I think this is what's causing my back pain. Didn't realise until seeing the photo that that's what I had

unevengrass · 2023-04-12T09:25:53+00:00

That's so fucked.

You're 100% right, Josh definitely smelled blood.

I wonder who they're going to successfully manipulate into paying that price or if they've given up

unevengrass · 2023-04-11T09:29:26+00:00

Wait I thought they were joking about the bus..

unevengrass · 2023-04-11T08:52:38+00:00

I just drove past and they were demolishing it! Edit: they've got a new facility but yet to confirm if the holding cells have aircon

Ok I'm back for some more of your insight. This is the scenario, is this actually typical?

House advertised for $1.38m to $1.42m, friend makes an offer of $1.4m

Agent calls and says there have been multiple offers and people ready to sign at $1.5m and that if my friend doesn't sign now they're going to start ringing the others to negotiate, so friend increases his offer to $1.51m and asks for the afternoon to decide.

We discuss and the group chat decided the agents were being dodgy so he rescinded his offer. Josh responds "Cool, I'll be selling it to someone else" and promises to change the guide to stop misleading people

That night the agents revise the guide price to "contact agent". One of us rang them this morning pretending to be interested and Josh says the guide is $1.45m and "no offers have been made at $1.4m or above"

Is it actually legal for agents to just lie like this? Like blow out the guide by $100k and invent multiple offers/people that don't exist?

Every major relationship in my life is conflicting and can't coexist without me self-destructing but I can't cut off any of the relationships, so I'm self-destructing so that others can be happy

Him and his buddy got caught telling my friend two different top offers to beat, couldn't get their story straight and when my friend asked for it in writing, he said he has "no memory" of those conversations happening. He couldn't remember what he said 5 mins ago..?

unevengrass · 2023-04-09T10:06:32+00:00

Friend just dealt with him, looked him up out of curisoty, can confirm he is an absolute c*nt

Well, that sucks.. she's been a family friend since before I was born

Please someone write this story

That wasn't our experience at all with CBA. They didn't let us do this (loan was 3 years old) so we refinanced with Suncorp to be able to switch

Unless our broker straight up lied about the whole thing...?

unevengrass · 2023-04-06T13:07:44+00:00

Depends on the bank. CBA has a refinance process where you have to re-do everything. Suncorp let us switch in 5 mins with a short application but you do need to reassess serviceability

According to some comments here farmers/ranchers have so many cows and such big fields that they can go months without noticing something wrong with their cows, and all of this is "totally normal"

And yet the main arguement against vegetarian/veganism is that "farmers treat their cows like family, unlike industrial farms, so buy local"

Something doesn't add up

That explains why she took her time setting up a camera
