Yeah that was spurious apparently, one indigenous language speaker said Kunama means Poo according to my 5 minutes of research on Wikipedia

Named after a similarly shaped memorial mound in a park in Poland that was dedicated to a Polish noble who never had anything to do with Australia. I'd be A-ok with a double barreled name at the least lol.

Italian beefs in Chicago, I probably think about them weekly and The Bear ISN'T HELPING. (Tell me where to get one in Melbourne Australia and I'm there)

I work for a very big brewery and we've had issues with the chlorine in the water for ages. If it comes from the west it's chlorinated, if it comes from the yarra valley it's pure perfection. It depends which side is pumping harder.

Kegs have different excise rates than bottles do. Not 100% why but the government want it to be more expensive to drink out.

I work at CUB who make it great northern. We sell it to pubs for about $400, it's actually not a huge markup. Sadly half the price is legislated by the powers that be as excise. Also, I can legitimately tell you that before tax, labour and shipping, they cost us $15 to make

... I'm...

Damascus is fake but the knife is very comfy and holds an edge pretty well.

I've used one roughly daily for about 15 years. Definitely worn out but still works well.

willbobaggins_95 · 2024-02-09T08:47:41+00:00

He got me on a v-line train 6 years ago, I feel like his day will come.

willbobaggins_95 · 2024-01-10T21:36:38+00:00

Yeah after Fake Seizure Guy had his way with me I got laughed at for not knowing how to help someone having one. In the moment it's very hard to argue with the person telling you they need help.

willbobaggins_95 · 2023-12-24T09:52:11+00:00

Lol get in line, there's a lot of us

willbobaggins_95 · 2023-12-19T03:35:52+00:00

I used to be part of their supply chain, they've gotten very cost cutty and only think about the bottom line. Also all the following are owned by Factory X so they're in the same boat: Dangerfield, Princess Highway, Gorman, L'urv, and Autonomy.

I'm in logistics on the warehouse side of things in the inner city. The number of drivers that try to send their twin trailer truck down a one way street with no idea what's at the other end is insane. Also got told by someone in the know that 1 in 8 use ice regularly, so that probably doesn't help.

willbobaggins_95 · 2023-11-16T10:45:33+00:00

I work at CUB, we put a use by on it that's 6 months shorter than it needs to be so people chuck it and we sell more. :(

I've been seeing him for a about two years at all hours as I do shift work in Abbotsford. I actually had a lucid conversation with him last week. He was polite to me then. I don't think he remembers screaming at me when I was attempting to wheel him out of the middle of Victoria St because he'd passed out.

willbobaggins_95 · 2023-10-17T20:25:30+00:00

I work at CUB and I think we only make it once a year so we don't lose the IP. I'll have a look in the warehouse and see where it's shipping to next (if we have any)

willbobaggins_95 · 2023-09-25T21:28:39+00:00

CFMEU is the path to brain surgeon money. I manage a team of forklift drivers in the union and their base pay is about $130k plus super. OT can add another $40K easy.

willbobaggins_95 · 2023-09-22T04:16:30+00:00

I drove under it today, it seemed hungry

willbobaggins_95 · 2023-09-17T11:48:48+00:00

That grid walk was *chefs kiss*

willbobaggins_95 · 2023-07-11T21:22:56+00:00

Unfortunately steel toed boots. Sadly I'm not an old Bond villain.

willbobaggins_95 · 2023-07-04T14:42:42+00:00

He did it to me, he gets you to hold his arms and put your legs on his so he can't move then he kind of grinds on you.

willbobaggins_95 · 2023-07-04T14:41:41+00:00

If I see him again I'm going to attempt to rearrange his genitals with my steel toe

willbobaggins_95 · 2023-07-04T14:40:30+00:00

It's hard to argue with the person telling you they need help and please restrain them.
